I don't own anything you recognize.
Blaine told me he loved me today.
Why are you crying so hard, tears streaming down your face, Mercedes?
Blaine told me he loved me.
No need to sing for me, Rachel, we know well enough your angst. Although the emotion in your eyes looks sincere enough. For what?
He said it. Finally. Whispered in my ear. His voice sounded so broken, so afraid.
Why do you look so confused, Brittney? And why is Santana comforting you?
He kissed me.
Why so guilty, Karofsky? Go too far this time around? I seem to remember a brick wall, and lots of blood, and lots of black. I don't want to remember. So I forget.
(Please don't start stuttering, Tina. It only makes Mike hold you tighter, and Artie looks heartbroken enough already.)
I'm not sure why I couldn't kiss back, but my eyes were closed in bliss, I promise.
Why does Puck look so broken? And Quinn, so afraid? And Sam, so furious, his eye has a black ring around it, and he winces every time he twitches it.
(So do I, actually, but why?)
And Finn, my father, my stepmother, why are you hunched over me, red eyed?
(This is why I moisturize. I can feel my whole body hurting— is that what happens to you when your skin gets too dry? But it hurts— to the bone.)
Why am I waking up in here, a white room, body aching, all of you hushed and upset in front of me?
Why are there tubes with liquids attached to me? Why is the monitor on my left showing a recovery from a flat line?
What happened to me? The brick wall, the blood, the black.
Was I that flat line?
I don't seem to be, not anymore.
(Where is Blaine? I need to tell him I love him. Yes, I love you all. I'm not sure what this fuss is about, actually. You should know that I'm strong by now. Especially since—of course I'm smiling.)
Blaine told me he loved me.
I could never let go of that.
A/N: Teehee. He can't let go because he and Blaine are MEANT TO BE. Stupid Karofsky. Meh.
Review please!
When I originally set out to write this story, Kurt was going to be dead, but then I chickened out. Should I post the one where he's dead? It's pretty different, especially the end…
Let me know!
