Hey! Chapter 1 and 2 have been updated if you haven't read them yet. Just letting you guys know!


The next week when Kurt goes into the library, Blaine is already waiting in the isle for him.

"Hey." Blaine says, giving Kurt a small smirk

"Hi." Kurt says, with his head down.

"Is everything okay? I mean, you look a little down…"

"Uh.. Ya, everything is fine. Do you wanna go to the Lima Bean? My treat."

"Sure" says Blaine, giving Kurt another smile.

They walk outside the library in the brisk winter air. Kurt turns up his collar to keep the wind off his neck. Blaine puts on his scarf, and his hat.

"It's getting really cold, eh?" Blaine says, rearranging his scarf so it goes over his nose and mouth.

"Mhmm…"

"Are you sure you're okay, Kurt? I mean, you're usually more chatty than this…" Blaine trails off.

"Sorry, there's just this guy at my school who's been…. Bugging me to put it nicely."

"He's been bullying you? Wow… Kurt, I didn't know…"

"It's fine. Not a lot of people realize how bad it's gotten. Oh, sorry sir…" Kurt says as he bumps into a man leaving the Lima Bean.

Kurt holds the door open for the man, and Blaine, and they make their way to the counter.

"A medium drip for me, and a nonfat mocha for this guy."

"You remembered my coffee order? Asks Kurt, in awe.

"Or course I remembered your coffee order." Blaine says, with a wink.

They make their way over to the table where they sat before. Blaine sees some of his friends in Warbler outfits, and he makes his way over while Kurt sits and waits.

"Sorry about that. You were saying something about a guy picking on you?" asks Blaine, giving Kurt a concerned look.

"Ya, I mean he just shoves me into things and yells rude thi- Blaine, he's going in here. Oh my god what am I going to do?"

"Let me handle this."

Karofsky makes his way over to the counter when he spots Kurt and Blaine. He orders, and then makes his way over to the table.

"'Sup Lady? This your boyfriend?"

"In fact, I am. And I want you to leave Kurt alone." Says Blaine, standing up in front of Karofsky, trying to intimidate him. The only problem is, Karofsky is 6'5 and Blaine is 5'7.

Kurt keeping keeps playing "Is this your boyfriend? In fact, I am." Over and over in his head.

"Ya? And what if I don't leave him alone?" Karofsky says, giving Blaine a shove.

"I'll do this." and Blaine jumps forward and knocks Karofsky over into the next tables. Karofsky falls with Blaine on top of him. Blaine continually punches him in the face, until he has broken his nose. Kurt jumps up from his seat and tries to pull Blaine off.

"Blaine. Blaine. BLAINE! GET OFF HIM!" Kurt yanks Blaine off of Karofsky.

"THAT'S WHAT YOU GET WHEN YOU MESS WITH A BOXER, AND MY BOYFRIEND, JACKASS!" Screams Blaine at the top of his lungs.

Kurt half drags Blaine out of the Lima Bean. They start to walk back to the library.

"I think I should go home now…" Blaine says to Kurt, looking down at his hand.

"You're going to come to my house. We're only a 10 minute walk away, and my dad can drive you to the emergency room to have your hand looked at." Blaine just nods.


Kurt and Blaine get back to Kurt's house, and they go into the kitchen looking for Burt.

"Hey Kurt, and-" he looks over at Blaine "Kurt's friend."

"Dad, this is Blaine." Blaine gives a slight wave and then goes back to holding his hand.

"Is your hand okay?" Burt asks, walking over to Blaine to take a look at his hand.

"I think I broke it. That Karofsky dude came into the Lima Bean while we were there and he was bugging Kurt so I beat him up..." Blaine looks up at Burt, and then lowers his eyes again.

"Is the Karofsky the kids that's been hurting you, Kurt?

"Ya, Dad..."

"Kurt, get Blaine into the car. We're going to have his hand looked at." Kurt goes to get his keys. "Hey, Blaine?"

"Yes, Sir?"

"Thanks for standing up for Kurt. It, really means a lot." Says Burt, giving Blaine a smile and a slap on the back.


Kurt, Burt and Blaine to go the hospital. Blaine broke all of his knuckles, so they cast up his hand, and they go back to the Hummel's house.

"I should get going." Blaine says, Giving Burt and Kurt a smile

"Wait, can I sign your cast before you go? asks Kurt.

"Sure." Blaine replies, giving a smile.

Kurt goes and grabs a sharpie and writes something.

"You can't read it until you get home, though." Kurt says, suspiciously.

"umm.. Okay..." Agrees Blaine, reluctantly.

"I'll see you soon, okay?" Kurt says, and goes and gives Blaine a hug.

Kurt walks Blaine to the door, and Burt drives Blaine home. They ride to Blaine's house in silence.

"Oh, it's this house, sir." Blaine says to Burt

"Call me Burt."

"Thanks for the ride, Burt."

"Anytime, Blaine."

Blaine gets into his house, and surprise, surprise, no one is home. Blaine takes off his coat and realizes he can now look at what Kurt wrote on his cast. "Hey, thanks for everything. Text me sometime. - Kurt (275-120-4859)." Blaine just smiles, and pulls out his phone to text Kurt.
