Kurt's POV

She was hiding something from me, let alone a feeling she had never really experienced before. It was LOVE!

My diva was in love, but her feelings since I met her had always been kept secret. She never wants to seem vulnerable to anyone, and yet she couldn't help the fact that she thought her feelings were useless, unimportant to anyone. But I have one suspicion of who may be responsible for Mercedes' heartache.

I saw the opportunity, and I went for it.

"Hello Samuel." I went up to Sam who was at his locker putting some books away. He looked at me with a bewildered face for I had never called him Samuel before.

"Um. Hello Kurt?" I kept staring at him, gazing at his features. No wonder my girl liked him. Without knowing for how long I was staring at him, he coughed roughly to get my attention.

"Sorry, so are you still dating Satan?"

"Who? You mean Santana?" He was shocked to know Santana's nickname.

"Yeah, I guess, why?"

"Well I thought you would grow out of your rage for Quinn to make her jealous by dating Santana." Sam made an awkward laugh and placed his hands in his pockets.

"Kurt, I don't feel comfortable talking about this. I'm sorry, if you don't mind that's my personal business." He was getting a bit annoyed with me, I don't think anyone would be comfortable talking about their personal dating life, especially if you're dating Santana.

"Sorry, I was rather curious, I promise not to ask again." Sam closed his locker and we both headed to the Glee club. We were about to enter when he asked me a question I had trouble thinking of an answer.

"Kurt may I ask why you asked me…what you asked me?" I wasn't sure what to tell him, I knew I had to lie.

"Well I was trying to see-" That's when I saw the one person that saved me from lying, because frankly I am not a good liar but not a bad liar.

"Mercedes!" Sam turned quickly to her once her named slipped my tongue. We both starred at her with concerned eyes, for she didn't look well, her eyes were red and her hair was a mess. Had Mercedes been crying?

"Hey guys." She kept looking at me, trying not to look at Sam.

"You look blue Mercedes?" I asked as I saw from the corner of my eye; Sam gazing at her with suspicious eyes, mostly he was concerned.

"I'm just tired, I've been yawning, that explains my red eyes and nothing else." She directed that comment while staring at me with a serious gaze.

"I just haven't really slept well, got a lot on my mind these days." She grabbed her hair in a bun and wiped her eyes.

"You should try to get some sleep, it isn't healthy. You should at least get 8 hours of sleep a night." What a dork I thought, I stared at him as I tried not to laugh from his answer. It certainly made Mercedes laugh.

"I'll make sure of that, thanks Sam." She smirked shyly as he did the same.

Then an unspeakable force had to ruin the moment.

"Yo! Trouty Mouth! I wants your lips and I wants them now!" Speak of the she devil; Santana busted out of nowhere and grabbed Sam's shirt and started making out with him in front of us, but most importantly in front of Mercedes. That bitch of Santana seriously didn't care what people thought of her, plus she was really inconsiderate of one's feelings.

Suddenly Mercedes walked away from them, and headed away from the choir room in the direction towards the parking lot. As she walked away I saw a small slight of tear fall form her face.

I ran towards her trying to grab her arm but never have I seen her walk so fast. I know I shouldn't have work my boots with heels.

"Mercedes!" I yelled trying to get her attention, most importantly trying to get her to stop speed walking. She stopped as soon as she heard my voice. I ran to her and made my way in front of her.

"Mercedes tell me what's wrong? I have never seen you like this."

"It was suppose to be a secret, mine! My own! No one was supposed to know!"

"Know what Mercedes?"

"That I love Sam Evans! I always have! Since he came for the first time into glee club, but of course it didn't surprise me that he had to fall for Quinn then Santana."

"Mercedes no one knows your secret, I doubt Sam knows."

"Kurt, you know. Even with you knowing it can be-"

"Mercedes, do you believe I would hurt you by telling Sam, or telling other people? I'm your best friend you can count on me, I won't let you down."

"I just…he can't find out, no one can."

"Mercedes there is no shame in admitting your feelings towards someone."

"I don't want to seem vulnerable Kurt. To anyone, not even Sam. I don't want anyone thinking they can hurt me. "

"Mercedes"

"I just want to be alone, please. Tell Mr. Shue that I felt sick and that I wanted to go home." Ok now she was being silly.

"Mercedes you can't hide from Sam forever."

"I'm not! I just need time to think, and I can't do that with Santana slobbering all over him."

"Mercedes?"

"Kurt please, do this…for me!"

"All right, fine." Mercedes kissed me on my cheek and headed off to her car.

So I headed off to Glee club with a blister from running to catch Mercedes, definitely not doing that again.

As I walked into Glee club, all eyes turned to Sam as he couldn't stop with the questions, but the questions were about Mercedes.

"Where is Mercedes? Is she all right? Does she feel tired? Will she be all right? Has she gone home?" Santana was the one who out of everyone looked almost insulted.

"Yes she did, she didn't feel to good. Is that okay Mr. Shue?"

"Yes, Kurt that's is fine." I walked to sit next to Quinn and thought of how concerned Sam was for Mercedes. It made me wonder.

So that was the 2nd chapter. Hope you guys liked it. what do you think will happen next? Wait and you'll see :)
