Kurt over the next few days, was mostly alone at school, but after school he was in Glee with all the others, they were all singing, and planning choreography, he really seemed to be having a good time. Blaine still tried to talk to him, but Kurt was closing himself off before he could dare get hurt. He knew there was no possible way the other could dare return the feelings he was beginning to develop.
Even so, his father noticed the change in him, he was smiling more, and talking on his phone with friends. Burt was relieved to be honest that Kurt seemed to be coming out of his shell. Still, there was still something fairly off. Even so Kurt went to school about two weeks later, feeling much better now. When Blaine walked over to him.
"Hey, how have you been holding up?" asked Blaine.
"I've been alright." said Kurt opening his locker.
"You sure? Mercedes says you're distant even with texts." he said.
Kurt hunched his shoulders, yeah he still wasn't letting them as close as he wanted to. He didn't want them to get hurt or slush-ied, or shoved into a locker because of him.
"It's nothing." said Kurt.
"It's not, and I know because of the day I helped you up. How you said you didn't want me to somehow catch being unpopular. Kurt, what's going on with you? Are you afraid of becoming friends with people because of the jocks?" asked Blaine.
Kurt looked down. "It's not just the jocks, it's everyone Blaine. You and Sebastian, I've heard you're both pretty popular despite not being in sports. And I know if you are around me, you'll start to get the same treatment I get." said Kurt.
"Who is the worst bully?" asked Blaine.
Kurt looked away from Blaine, it was Dave of course, Dave had hit him, shoved him, put slushies in his face since he'd turned twelve.
"I can't say Blaine, I just don't want you, Mercedes, or anyone else to get hurt." he said.
"I don't care Kurt, you can't stay alone. You're in glee, you belong somewhere now. We're a family, let us help you." said Blaine.
Kurt looked up at him, and Blaine grinned at him. "Courage." said Blaine.
Kurt nodded and grabbed his books from his locker. "Blaine, do you want to maybe eat lunch together today?" asked Kurt nervously.
"Sure, Sebastian and I usually eat together, but lately he's been getting on my nerves a little." said Blaine.
"Why's that?" asked Kurt before he could stop himself.
"He wasn't like this last year, but then he left over the summer and went to France, I don't know what happened, but it changed him. He's shallow now, always looking for the next guy to fuck, he even hit on me. Which is weird, since we're best friends and not more." said Blaine.
Kurt stopped suddenly. "G-Guy?" he stuttered out.
"What? Oh yeah, you don't know do you? Sebastian and I are both gay, we've been out of the closet since last year towards the end of it, we came out together, as best friends." said Blaine.
Kurt nodded and gulped a little, he wasn't expecting that. "And...how do you avoid getting bullied?" asked Kurt.
"Well you were wrong about the sports thing, I know Mercedes probably told you we're not involved in sports. I'm in boxing actually, and I'm kinda way into it. The last time someone tried to bully me, I punched him so hard he lost four teeth. Luckily it wasn't at school. Even so, I did run once, when I first tried to come out. When I was thirteen. I was bullied really badly by this one guy, it forced a transfer of my school halfway through the year, at that new school, there was a no bullying policy, I met Sebastian there. We spent all our time together, and figured out that we couldn't keep running away, we weren't sure when we'd want to try coming out again since both of us had tried and been forced to transfer from our schools. Anyway, so last year, when we were both fifteen we came out, after being in this school for two years. Because of my boxing no one here is brave enough to try picking on me, I took up boxing when I was bullied the first time. And Sebastian? Well believe me, picking on Sebastian is never a good idea." said Blaine with a grin on his face.
Kurt realized it then, Blaine and Sebastian were both people he should be looking up to. After all, he was going to try getting up the courage to actually come out himself. Blaine was shorter then Kurt was, and those eyes were looking at Kurt expecting a reaction to it all.
"So you're in boxing? I didn't think we had that as a sport here." said Kurt.
"I go to special competitions with the foot ball coach, actually I've won quite a few titles now. And whenever I do, I bring money back for the glee club, so the principal allows it." said Blaine.
Kurt nodded. "Well um...Blaine?" he asked nervously.
Blaine looked at him. "How did your parents react?" asked Kurt.
"Truth be told, I don't know how Sebastian's reacted. But my dad had me work on a car with him, literally we rebuilt an old lexus from scratch. He thought maybe by getting my hands dirty, he might be able to turn me straight. It didn't work. I mean I like football, I like boxing, I even liked rebuilding that car. But I also love fashion, top 40 songs and singing them, dancing, and show tunes. I love the theatre more then anything else." said Blaine.
Kurt smiled a little. "Blaine...what if I told you...I'm...um...gay." he said under his breath.
"I'd say I'd believe it. In fact I was pretty sure you were when I first saw you, no offense." said Blaine.
"I guess I can't really pass for anything else while wearing the types of clothes I do." said Kurt.
"Hey, I think you have excellent taste in clothing." said Blaine with a grin on his face.
"I haven't told anyone besides you...not even my dad. I'm not sure how he'll react when he hears it." said Kurt nervously.
Blaine put a hand on Kurt's shoulder. "Maybe he'll be better then my dad was." he said.
Kurt tried to think about it, he and his father weren't too close but they did get along. He hoped he wouldn't lose him by announcing this to him. "Can I maybe wait to tell him though?" asked Kurt.
Blaine nodded. "Take your time Kurt, believe me, it's alright." said Blaine.
Kurt smiled and went into his class, feeling a little better. He suddenly got a note halfway through it though.
He's only being nice because of the team, he doesn't actually care about you Hummel.
Kurt's heart hurt, someone had seen them talking, someone who didn't care for them talking. He looked around, but no one seemed to want to say that they had given him the note. He pocketed it and worked on his school work more. Attempting to hold back the tears, he managed to get through the class before running to the bathroom, opening the note, he stared at it, tears filling his eyes. Suddenly he heard a knock on the stall.
"Kurt?" asked Blaine's voice.
Kurt wiped away the tears, and tried to steady his voice. "Yes?" he asked.
"I went to go get you from your class, but someone told me you ran in here." said Blaine confused.
Kurt shook his head and stood up, coming out of the stall. "Did something happen?" asked Blaine.
Kurt shook his head, keeping the note hidden. "Nothing, just wasn't feeling too well." said Kurt, faking a smile.
Blaine could tell something was up, but he didn't press it. They went the rest of the day in silence, Blaine sighed internally. It seemed like the closer he got to Kurt, the further he was pushed away the next second, and he couldn't put a finger on why. Little did he know that Kurt was just too damaged from everything he'd been through, and that it was still happening.
After school they went to glee, the club had gained a few more people. Finn had joined up, the football quarterback, his best friend Puck, another jock Mike, his girlfriend Quinn and her two flunkies Brittany and Santana. They now had enough members to be considered a show choir. In fact they had thirteen, Kurt was extra, he knew he was, they didn't really need him anymore. Yes he loved to sing, when he sang he felt more free then he'd ever felt. But with Rachel hogging the spotlight, being all over Quinn's boyfriend Finn who was now getting solos or singing with Rahel most of the time, Kurt felt left in the dust. But today would be different, Blaine pulled Kurt to the side.
"I want to sing a duet with you." he said.
Kurt looked at him skeptically. "Come on, it'll be great." said Blaine.
Kurt smiled a little, nodding, Blaine and him stepped forward. "Hey so, I want to sing a duet with Kurt, not for competition or anything, just because he's going through something right now that I went through once." said Blaine.
Sebastian's glare was obvious at Kurt, but Kurt was too focused on Blaine to notice it. The two of them began to sing the song that Blaine had picked out which was "Raise Your Glass." Kurt and him sang it together, their voices melding together in a perfect harmony. In fact mouths dropped, Sebastian's glare became worse, but Kurt felt better for sure after that song. After all, he was wrong in all the right ways, and Blaine, Blaine was in the same place he was, only with less bullying.
After the song, Mr. Shue stood up. "I'm giving you both a duet at sectionals." he said.
Kurt's eyes had gone wide, and Blaine grinned. "That sounds great!" exclaimed Blaine, putting an arm around Kurt's shoulders.
After glee, Kurt walked out and there stood Sebastian. "So did you get my note earlier?" asked Sebastian backing Kurt into a wall.
"You...but you're not in my class." said Kurt.
"I had someone else give it to you. But it's true. Blaine's mine, so back off." said Sebastian before walking away.
Kurt fell to the floor, hugging his knees up to his chest, he cried into them for a while, in that empty hall way. Everyone seemed to have left, and he decided then, he'd need to leave Glee.
