A/N: Short chapter, but next chapter has Dave! There won't be a lot of Blinn in this story, for those who don't like it. I'm thinking of writing several one shots set in this world. There are so many different stories I want to tell. But nothing's set in stone yet.

Chapter 2

It was hard for Kurt to hide his power. Both Blaine and his father had noticed the change in his behavior and were trying to find out what had caused it.

Blaine kissed his boyfriend, hugged him, gave him flowers and made sure Kurt knew Blaine would always be there for him. Kurt couldn't tell him. He couldn't risk losing Blaine.

Burt was more direct. He sat Kurt down and asked what was wrong. The tone of his voice made it very clear that he wanted an answer.

Kurt considered his options. He could lie or, maybe, refuse to answer. His father was clearly worried though and Kurt hated seeing his father like this. They had the house to themselves; there probably wouldn't be a better time to tell him.

"I got my superpower." Kurt said. "And I hate it."

Burt didn't say anything. He knew Kurt would be more likely to tell him everything if he didn't interfere.

"I can see the Strings Of Fate, dad. And Blaine… he´s not my soul mate."

"I'm sorry, son. You can still be happy together. I am happy with Carole and I was happy with your mother. They can't both have been my soul mates, maybe they both weren't. It doesn't make me love them any less."

"It was mom. I think. Your soul mate is dead and so is mom." Kurt's eyes grew wide the second he'd said it. "I shouldn't have said that. I hate this. Why can't I just keep my mouth shut?"

"It's okay. I understand that you can't keep it all inside."

"It's so hard, dad. I can just see them all the time. I see Tina and Mike together and I get so jealous, because they're meant for each other. A part of me just wants to tell them but if I tell them I'll have to tell everyone."

"Have you told anyone else about this?"

"Only Rachel." Kurt answered.

"Kurt, you really shouldn't tell anyone else. I know it's hard but there are people out there who will want to abuse your power. I would hate to see you get hurt over this."

"I know, dad. I'm not a complete idiot."

The string was moving. It was moving quite a lot. Kurt couldn't handle it. He couldn't focus on anything that happened around him. Fortunately, most people didn't notice. Blaine gave Kurt a confused look every few minutes but didn't push him to explain himself. Rachel wasn't as considerate. It was lunch, people were talking and Kurt's string was moving around a lot.

"You're very quiet today," Rachel said, "what's wrong?"

"My string is moving." Kurt whispered back.

"Oh! Do you think he's close? What if he's in the cafeteria with us? In what direction should I look?"

"Quiet, Rachel!" Kurt hissed.

"Sorry." They looked around the table; no one seemed to have noticed Rachel's outburst, except for Blaine, who was trying to get eye contact with Kurt.

Kurt went back to staring at the table. "I don't want to know."

"You don't? Aren't you curious?"

"No and yes. I am curious but I don't want to know. What if it's someone I hate? What if it's a girl?"

"You're gay."

"And Finn is straight."

"Finn is bi, probably."

"Rach… please let it go."

"Okay. Let's talk about something else then. Do you know who my soul mate is yet?"

"I think I left something in the choir room. See you guys at Glee later." Kurt got up and left his friends behind before they could protest.

The hallways were quiet and deserted. The noise from the cafeteria faded and soon Kurt could only hear his footsteps quickly moving through the school. At least, he thought it was only his footsteps until he stopped in the choir room and heard someone following him.

"Leave me alone, Rachel! I don't want to talk about it!" Kurt snapped.

"I'm very sorry to disappoint you but I'm not Rachel." Blaine said as he entered the room.

"Oh, it's you."

"That sounded very enthusiastic. Did I do something?"

Except for being my brother's soul mate? "No. Rachel was just annoying me. Sorry, I didn't mean to take it out on you."

"Love, it's okay. Rachel gets on everyone's nerves." Blaine's voice was filled with love. Kurt felt so guilty.

"No, it's not okay, Blaine. I've been acting weird and I haven't told you why. I can't tell you, I'm so sorry. I hope you understand that. I want to tell you but I can't. Please, don't be mad."

"Kurt, I love you," Blaine said, "I know you'll tell me when you're ready. I won't push you. So, this is me, changing the subject. I got my superpower!"

"Really?"

"Yeah! I got X-ray vision!" Blaine got that excited puppy look on his face. He was almost jumping up and down with excitement.

Kurt wasn't as excited. He turned bright red. "You… You can see… Blaine! Stop looking!"

"Woah, calm down. I can't see through your clothes. Well, okay, I can but I can't see you naked. I can see your bones."

"My… bones?"

"Yes. And I can tell you, you have the prettiest bones in the school." Blaine teased Kurt.

"I don't know whether to be flattered or crept out."

Blaine's laugh filled the room. "I wouldn't blame you if it grosses you out."

"You could never gross me out, Blaine Anderson." Kurt moved closer to his boyfriend. He needed to touch him. "I love you way too much."

"Is that a challenge I hear?"

"NO!" Kurt yelled. "No, we're not doing this again."

"I think it was a challenge."

"It wasn't! I swear."

"No, I'm pretty sure it was."

"I just got that stain out of my carpet, Blaine!"

"I do love a challenge."

"My dad is finally allowing me back in the shop."

"I'm so going to gross you out."

"Finn can look at me again without blushing! Don't ruin this for me!"

"Wes still owes me a favor; he can help me."

"Please don't, I'll do anything." Kurt pleaded.

"Anything?"

"Eh… almost anything."

"Will you kiss me?" Blaine pulled Kurt against him.

"Maybe…"

"If I ask nicely?"

"Probably."

"Will you please kiss me, Angel?"

"Of course, Sweetie."
