"Finn has been acting super weird lately... Maybe it's him getting use to his painkillers, but he has been freaking out a lot.." Kurt was eating a chocolate pudding cup, non-fat and sugar free, talking to Mercedes at lunch.

"Finn always freaks out around you."

"True." Kurt stared down at his chocolate pudding. "But not like this. The day after he came back, I wore those super fabulous black skinny jeans we got at the mall the other day, and he yelled at me to take them off..."

"Is that why you were wearing those awful gym shorts that day?"

Kurt nodded, frowning a bit. "Ruined my outfit."

The rest of the day passed uneventfully until Glee that afternoon. Kurt and Mercedes were the second and third to arrive, with Mr. Schu there first. Normally Rachel would be there even before their teacher, but she has been busy helping Finn out. Finn seemed to enjoy it for the first few days, then it seemed like he'd snap at Rachel every time she tried to help.

They waited around, talking about an upcoming shopping trip, as the rest of the group filed it. Even Santana and Britney were there before Rachel and Finn. "Does anyone know where they are?" Mr. Schu asked after a while.

"I saw some football players heading towards Finn with slushies..." Britney piped up with after a while.

Slushied. Again. Kurt sighed, standing up. "I'll go find them." He smiled at the group before heading out the door.

He walked until he heard Finn... Crying? Kurt dropped his brown leather messenger bag and flat out ran, gasping when he saw Finn Hudson laying on the ground in a puddle of slushie. "Finn?" Kurt tip toed towards him. "Are you okay?"

Finn's head shot up, then back done. "I'm fine, Kurt." His tone wasn't angry, it was just there. It worried Kurt.

Kurt stepped in the slushie, holding out his hand. "Come on, Finn.. What happened? I mean, why are you on the floor? And where is Rachel?"

"I was slushied then my crunches slipped and I fell. Rachel is.. I don't know, I kinda yelled at her and she ran off crying.." Finn took the small boys hand, and began to get up. Luckily he'd covered his cast in plastic to it didn't get wet.

"Oh.." Kurt wanted to ask why he'd yelled at Rachel, but he felt like it wasn't the time. Kurt told Finn to lean against the wall, which he did, and Kurt got his crunches. They carefully made it to the bathroom, where Finn say down and Kurt went to get his forgotten messenger bag, which he carried towels in.

"Thanks Kurt, you don't have to do this for me.."

Kurt smiled at him, wetting one of the towels and wiping the stickiness off of Finn's face. "It's fine, you're a friend."

Soon Kurt had Finn all cleaned up, and folded the towels, putting him in a plastic bag before putting him in his bag to clean and dry later tonight. "Come on, we gotta go to Glee.."

Finn nodded, letting Kurt help him up. They walked back to glee practice, finding Rachel there. They were all finishing singing "Don't Stop Belivin' " Probably because they didn't wanna do anything new without their lead male voice, Finn.

Kurt left Finn's side and watched as Rachel replaced him, saying 'I'm sorry' about a million times as she helped him into a chair.

Rachel.. Kurt didn't hate her. He knew that logically Finn was dating Rachel because she was a girl, and that he really had no chance with him anyway. The words that Rachel said to him once, back when Finn was still dating Quinn, still rang in his ears as he watched them. "If I was second, or fiftieth, I'd still be ahead of you because I'm a girl!" It was true, still to this day.

Kurt turned towards Mr. Schu, trying to ignore Rachel Barry's existaces for the rest of.. forever. That didn't last long, because she dumped Finn later that week.
