"Mr shue?" the teacher turned toward the voice "yes finn?" he asked , the boy stood " I have a song to sing.." he said walking up to the piano "go ahead" he said sitting down, everyone was looking at finn, everyone but kurt "Kurt, I'm sorry for what I did. You're my little brother and your awesome and I want you to forgive me, I know there's a part for you to take blame but I want to say sorry for mine. This song is for you" he said before cueing the music
"brother my brother tell me what are we fighting for we've got to end this war
We should love one another oh can't we just pretend this war never began we can try brother my brother
We face each other from different sides, the anger burns can't remember why
Its kind of crazy to cause so much pain Our foolish pride makes us hate this way"
As he sang he remembered what caused the fight. He was in their bedroom while his room was being finished. He was dancing for fun and bumped into kurts dresser, sending a crystal figure crashing to the ground, just as kurt walked in. He didn't mean to break it, but kurt freaked out, sometime during the fight kurt had attacked finn and finn had said some things that he normally wouldn't have, but kurt had kicked him in the groin.
Later that night when he was talking to burt he found the figure used to belong to kurts mom, he felt like shit. So he saved up his money and bought him another figure, it may not be his moms but he was hoping it would help kurt forgive him, he had even brought it to school with him today and planned on giving it to him after he finished his song
" Let's take a moment and look deep inside And say we'll learn to give love a try
When matters differ as we seem to be There's so much more to me than what you see
You don't have to be this way Think about the consequences
Turn around and walk away Brother my brother
Tell me what are fighting for Isn't life worth so much more
We should love one another Oh, can't we just pretend
This war never began Tell me why
Brother my brother Brother my brother
Tell me what are fighting for isn't life worth so much more
We should love one another Oh, can't we just pretend
This war never began Tell me why
Brother my brother" he finished his song and everyone clapped, everyone but kurt, but he was at least looking him, his eyes even looked a bit wet "kurt, I feel like shit that my own brother won't even speak to me" he reached in his bag and pulled out the silk bag "here, I know its not the same but it's a peace offering" he handed kurt the bag and sat down.
Kurt opened the bag and peered inside, his eyes started to water but he shook his head and looked up "Mr. Shue, I have a song I need to sing" he didn't even wait for a answer before striding to the piano and sat down "Finn, You don't need to say your sorry." he breathed and looked at finn, who had a hopeful smile on, he smiled back " I over reacted and flew off the handle and took it out on you. I am truly sorry, you are the best brother. You put up with my bitterness, you brought me warm milk when blaine broke my heart. You gave rory the big brother talk when we went on our first date" he smiled when he saw rory blush
"you took a slushie for me even when we were fighting. You helped me downgrade my wardrobe and I still look better" finn laughed " so this song is for you." He started to play the familiar tune. Finn smiled and started to tear up when kurt started to sing, this was their song. They made it theirs the night blaine broke kurts heart
"Oh, you'll be in my heart (you'll be here in my heart) No matter what they say (I'll be with you)You'll be here in my heart (I'll be there), always Always I'll be with you I'll be there for you always
Always and always Just look over your shoulder Just look over your shoulder
Just look over your shoulder I'll be there always." he finished the song with tears flowing down his cheeks, but was smiling.
He stood up and stepped away from the piano, once he was clear he was tackled to the ground by finn in a bear hug, he didn't even care that his cloths might get dirty. They sat up laughing "im sorry finny" kurt whispered "so am I kurtie" finn whispered back before placing a kiss on kurts head "I really like your gift, but you didn't have too finn, the song would have been enough" he looked up smiling "but now I will always have something to remember of you, the best big brother ever…" he stopped and thought for a moment "well one of them, since everyone here is family to me. But your still the best" a throat cleared and they turned.
Every ones eyes were on them, some wiping away tears others not bothering and letting them flow "about time you jerks" puck said laughing "I thought I was gonna have to strangle someone" kurt and finn stuck out their tongues making everyone laugh. Yeah they may fight at times but all families do.
