AN: Thank you guys for taking the time to read this story. That being said, I really love reviews :) I'm not above begging. It helps me as a writer. Also, I am completely willing to take you guys opinions into account with this fic. I have an outline, but it's not written in stone. If there is something you wanna see happen, I might be able to work with that. Now enough of my rambling, if your still reading this: ENJOY THE STORY :)
Also, I don't own glee :)
Convincing Burt was not easy. It took a lot of shouting, tears, and liquor before he agreed that this might be for the best. Kurt texted everybody in the glee club and told them that there was going to be an emergency meeting tomorrow morning before school. Lots of people asked questions, but he never texted them back.
The next morning, Kurt walked into the choir room, and everybody is already there. He paused just inside the door and took a deep breath. Steeling his resolve, he walked the rest of the way inside. "Hi guys."
The commotion was crazy. Everyone stood up and was talking at once and drowning each other out in the process.
Kurt put his hands up and tried to keep them from shaking, "Everybody, be quiet. I have something I need to tell you."
The yells became murmurs but didn't stop all together. Finn could see that Kurt was nervous, so he walked over to him and put an arm around his shoulders. He felt Kurt inhale deeply.
"I just want you guys to know that I love you all. And that I think of you as family. You've been there for me through some truly bad times, and I thank you for that." He was struggling to keep from crying. The girls in the room weren't fairing so well. The air was heavy. "That's why it's so hard for me to say goodbye."
"Goodbye?" Tina asked him in shock.
He just nodded. Others looked like they wanted to protest so he plowed on. "Karofsky's coming back today. His expulsion got overturned because there was no 'proof' that he was harassing me."
"That's bull shit!" Puck exclaimed.
Kurt smiled, "That's exactly what my grandma said." He looked around the room at his friends. "I can't be here with him. I don't feel safe here. So I'm moving in with my grandmother."
Mercedes looked at him with tears in her eyes. "Where does she live? She lives close, right?"
Kurt shook his head. "She lives in New York. I leave today."
Kurt felt like the entire room collapsed around him as his friends started crying and trying to convince him to stay. He didn't think he could take much more of this.
Puck watched as Kurt curled in on himself. He looked miserable, and they weren't helping. He stood up, walked over to him, and pulled him into a hug. "I'm gonna miss you, dude. But I know that you'll be safer there." Puck pushed him to arm's length and smirked at him. "Besides…you know that you're gonna own that place."
Kurt smiled up wetly at Puck, "Thank you, Noah. That means a lot to me."
Puck just nodded and walked out. As the door shut, the rest of New Directions engulfed him in a hug. There were lots of tears from everyone and lots of well wishes, but Kurt made sure that he was gone before the first bell rang.
He turned to Finn as they reached his car, "Thanks for walking me out, Finn. I really don't want to see him."
"It's not a problem, dude. I don't want anything to happen to you. We are kind of like brothers now, right?"
Kurt smiled at Finn's hesitation. "We ARE brothers, Finn. I'm going to miss you."
Finn looked down and saw that Kurt was starting to cry again. "You're already going to be gone by the time I get home, right?"
Kurt just nodded, sniffed, and wiped his eyes. His breath whooshed out as Finn pulled him into a rough hug. "I'm going to miss you too!"
Kurt patted Finn on the back. "We'll still see each other, Finn. If not for Christmas, then when the glee clubs makes it to Nationals…and you guys had better make it!"
"We will! Definitely!" Finn opened Kurt's door and closed it after he was inside. He waved while he waited for Kurt to back up and drive away. When Kurt left the parking lot, he felt his smile fall and he trudged inside slowly. He was late for first period anyway.
I hope you enjoyed and please review :)
