So, this is a really short chapter. But this idea has been going through my mind, and today in Financial Lit, I just couldn't take it anymore, it needed to be written. My teacher had no idea that I wasn't playing attention to her talking about debt, but rather was typing away at this little chapter. It's not much, but it's all Kurt! I hope I did his justice. I love me some Kurt Hummel.
The song is Thanks To You by Tyler Collins. Listen to it(: It's beautiful!

Mr. Schue stood as the boys took their seats.
"Blaine, without knowing it, you have introduced our assignment for the week. Everyone in this room has something they want to say to someone else. So I want you to say it the best way you know how, in song. I want you to put it all out there, and say it."
Kurt sighed, and began to think. There were so many things he wanted to say to so many people. Blaine, to say that he loved him and that he would never say goodbye. Rachel, that they were going to make it. Mr. Schue, that he forgives him for not looking out for him. Finn, a thank you for being a great brother. Mercedes, that he's there for her no matter what. To everyone else, that everything would be okay in the end. He just didn't know who he wanted to say everything to. These people were his family, and he wanted them to know how much they meant to him. Suddenly, he knew what he was going to do.
As the two boys walked into the room, Kurt was nervous. He knew what he was going to say, what he was going to sing. He just didn't know how they would react.
"Alright guys! Who's got something they'd like to say?" Mr. Schue said, looking around. Kurt took a deep breath, and raised his hand. Shocked, Mr. Schue said "Alright, Kurt, you're up."
Shaking, Kurt stood up. "Why am I so nervous?" he thought. "I love to perform. It must be that I'm scared of their reactions."
Kurt collected himself, and looked at the group. "I want to say this to all of you. Thank you, for being so supportive of me this year. Of me and Blaine. It means so much to me. You guys are my family, and I love you guys. The fact that you're so... okay with me being gay, just means the world to me. So, thank you."
Kurt looked toward the band, and as they began to play, he fell into the attitude of a performer. This, performing, was where he belonged. And in this room is where he loved to be, surrounded by these people. Realizing this, he opened his mouth to sing.
Thank you for teaching me how to love For teaching me how to feel No mountain, no valley (Oh There's)There's no mountain, no valley For teaching me how to live
Showing me what the world means
What I've been dreamin' of
And now I know, there is nothing that I could not do
Thanks to You
Showing me my emotions
Letting me know what's real
From what is not
What I've got is more that I'd ever hoped for
And a lot of what I hope for is
Thanks to you
No time, no space
No heartache, no heartbreak
No fall from grace
Can't stop me from believing
That my love will pull me through
Thanks to You
No time, no space
No heartache, no heartbreak
No fall from grace
Can't stop me from believing
That my love will see me through
Thanks to You
Thanks to You
Putting things in perspective
Showing me how to give
And how to take
No mistake
We were put here together
And if I breakdown
Forgive me but it's true
That I'm aching with the love I feel inside
Thanks to You
Thanks to you
"Thank you guys. You are all amazing" Kurt said, as he grinned. He saw Rachel was crying, and then suddenly, she was on her feet, hugging him. Then, everyone was.
"I love you, boo." Britt whispered in his ear. Kurt was surrounded by people who loved him, and he couldn't help but feel that it's never to late to find your true friends, and finally feel accepted.
