This is the last chapter I have pre-written before I published this story. So updates may take a little longer from now on. The next chapter should finish out the Never Been Kissed episode and then we'll see how it goes from there. Thanks to all the people who added this to their story alerts! Reviews would be nice too :) And as always, I don't own Glee.
The ride to Dalton Academy wasn't too long. Emily was nervous as they pulled in and walked towards one of the side doors. Just as they coming in, hordes of teenage boys came walking through the hall. Kurt lost Emily in a sea of navy blazers. He headed down a stairwell and was stopped by a tall Asian boy. "Excuse me, I'm new and was wondering where everyone is going" he said sheepishly. "Oh, the Warblers are preforming in the senior commons, follow me. I'm Wes by the way" he smiled and headed off quickly with Kurt in tow.
Emily got turned around and ended up running head first into another student. "Oh, I'm so sorry" she said as she looked up at the boy. "No problem, are you new?" he asked taking in her outfit. "Uh-yeah, I was wondering what's going on. I'm Emilio" she smiled. "I'm Blaine. The Warblers are going to preform, I'll take you to there" he grinned and linked his arms with Emily.
"So tell me about yourself Emilio" he asked as they walked swiftly through a deserted corridor. "Well, I went to McKinley High in Lima. I live with my older brother and my dad. And I play the piano" Emily answered. "How about you Blaine?" he looked at her and smiled. "I have an older brother too and I board here during the week. My parents' home is in Lima and if you'll excuse me" he walked off to join the other Warblers and started to sing "Teenage Dream" by Katy Perry.
Emily scanned the room for her brother, but couldn't pick him out from all the other boys. Instead she turned back to the Warblers. Blaine was cute, there was no denying that, however he was a little short for Emily's taste. She bopped her head along, making sure not to shift her hat. Emily's eyes caught a blonde Warbler looking at her. 'Oh geez I bet he thinks I'm a guy. And he's cute too' she thought as the Warbler's did their final spin.
As the crowd dispersed Blaine made his way over to Emily with the blonde Warbler behind him. "So what'd you think?" he asked, a little breathless. "Wow, you guys are really great we're gonna have to step it-" she cut herself off her eyes going wide. "Step what?" the blonde boy piped in, smiling at Emily. "Uh… Kurt!" she waved to her brother and beckoned him over quickly.
"This is Kurt, my brother" Emily announced as she pulled him towards her. "Kurt, this is Blaine and- well I didn't catch your name" she addressed the blonde boy. "I'm Jeff" he grinned again not taking his eyes off Emily. "Emilio" she nodded before turning back to Blaine. "Well Kurt and I should get going… busy day" she plastered on a smile and started to pull him out of the room.
"Wait, let's go get a coffee. You can ask us about Dalton" Blaine grabbed Kurt's arm and smiled. Kurt melted into the touch. 'You just met him and he's probably straight' he scolded himself as he started into the Warbler's hazel eyes. "Okay" Kurt agreed with Blaine's hand still touching his. Emily glared at her brother as they followed Blaine and Jeff out to the parking lot.
Blaine led the group into the deserted cafeteria. They all trailed inside and picked a table near the window. Blaine and Jeff went to retrieve the coffees for the group. "Kurt! Why'd you agree to stay! They're going to find out I'm a girl and we aren't Dalton students" Emily hissed as he brother as she pulled of her jacket and scarf. Kurt narrowed his eyes, "we'll be fine, just play along. For me?" his voice softened as he glanced at Blaine. Emily squealed, "you like Blaine!" she grabbed his arm and squeezed. "Hush!" Kurt demanded as he blushed and the boys returned with their drinks.
"So, would you two like to tell us why you were spying on The Warblers?" Blaine asked after taking a sip of his drink. Emily nearly spit her drinking out as Kurt's eyes dropped to stare at the table. "Oh and 'Emilio' you can take off your disguise now" Jeff put in with a satisfied grin. Emily looked up at him before pulling off her hat and shaking out her light brown hair.
"It's Emily, and we go to McKinley High, we're in the Glee club the New Directions" she said looking sympathetically at Blaine and Jeff. "So you were spying on the competition" Blaine commented before looking at Kurt. "Well yes, but also… can I ask you guys a question? Are you both gay?" Kurt looked up hopefully at Blaine.
Blaine and Jeff glanced at each other and chuckled. "No, well I mean I am, but Jeff is straight and Wes, who I think you met earlier, has a girlfriend" Blaine answered with a smile. "It's an all-boys school, and we have a zero-tolerance policy for bullying so everyone is safe here" Jeff put in, still looking at Emily. However, Emily was now staring happily at her brother. He had a chance here to actually fit in and not be afraid to walk through the halls.
Kurt glanced up at Emily and she could see the tears forming in her brother's eyes. Blaine seemed to have noticed as well, "Jeff can you go get some refills?" he asked giving him a look. Jeff wanted to protest and then realized they need to talk without him there so he got up quickly.
"So Kurt, I take it you haven't been having the best time at your school" Blaine started as he saw Emily take her brother's hand. "I'm the only out of the closet person at my school. I've been strong but…" the tears started to slowly roll down his face. "There's a Neanderthal who has decided to make Kurt's life a living hell. He verbally abuses me on the rare occasion he can't fine Kurt in the halls." Emily explained. "Nobody notices, nobody except Emily" Kurt put in.
"I know how you feel. I was taunted at my old school and it really pissed me off. I complained even, but nobody really cared enough to help stop it. My older brother noticed, but by then it was too late. So I came here, simple as that" Blaine explained as he laced his hands together.
"I'd love to tell you to come enroll here, but there's the issue of tuition. But there's another option for you Kurt. And Emily can be there to help you. You have to show them that you aren't the victim. Confront them, call them out" Blaine continued. "I ran away Kurt, I let them chase me away. I didn't stand up for myself, and it's something I regret" he finished as Jeff slowly returned to the table.
"Em, we can do this. If you'll help me" he turned to his sister. "I'm always here for you" she confirmed before turning back to find Jeff looking at her. "Can I have your number?" Jeff and Blaine asked simultaneously. Emily and Kurt giggled before pulling out their phones. "Let's all exchange numbers then" Kurt suggested as Blaine and Jeff blushed.
