Blaine walked by, purposely ignoring Kurt's obvious standing by the doorway. Frankly, Tina had not done the same.

"Hey, Kurt!" Tina exclaimed as if she'd wanted him to be there all along.

"Uh, hi Tina," Kurt franticly replied.

"You wanna come join us for lunch today? You seem kinda lost…" Tina truthfully informed him.

"Um, you sure it's okay? I don't want to be intruding or anything," Kurt tried to escape the awkward lunch they would share together.

"Nope! Not at all, I'm sure Blainey-brain here would LOVE to have you come along!" Tina said happily, grabbing Kurt's arm forcefully yet softly.

Kurt and Blaine froze. Kurt began to think: What had she meant by 'Blaine would love for me to come along'? Did Blaine tell her he wanted to give us a try? Uh-uh, as friends, of course. Blaine doesn't like me, so why should I like him? Our goal is to be friends, that's all. Blaine began to think: How many times does Tina have to be told? I. Don't. Like. Kurt. I really don't even want him as a friend at this point and her doing this is her way of torturing me, I can feel it. For as nice as she seems, she can be a real…well, Rachel.

The three walked down the hall, really Tina was the only gleeful one. Blaine and Kurt were too busy fixating on the fact that they would have to talk to eachother…

Mike had kept his promise and flagged down Blaine and Tina. When Tina dragged Kurt to the table, Mike have a questioning look.

"Um, what about the whole…Blaine, thing…?" Mike asked quietly even though both Kurt and Blaine had heard him perfectly.

"It's cool, trust me," Tina slyly replied.

Mike nodded and walked off with Tina and Blaine.

"Uh, where are you guys going?" Kurt shyly asked Tina.

"We're buying lunch, you coming with?"

"Um, no I'm not hungry, thanks."

"Oh come on, Kurt, you have to eat something!" Mike added.

"Really, it's fine. Sue's old crooked ways kind of messed up my digestive system."

"You need to gain some weight, man," Kurt heard Blaine nearly whisper.

Kurt's eyes grew wide. Did Blaine just reply to something I said?

"Fine. Don't eat. But you will this Friday," Tina warned, pointing to his eyes and then her own.

"Fri-" Kurt tried to ask.

"Blaine will explain," Tina replied with a wink towards Blaine, and the three were off to buy lunch.

Kurt sat down at the edge of the table where Mike had been waiting when they first entered. Blaine had been watching him from the lunch line the entire time. Kurt sighed and dug his palms into his eyes just as Blaine had when he checked his Facebook. Blaine couldn't help but feel sorry for Kurt, He looks even worse than I did. I mean, at least I had Tina. And Avery, but she doesn't go to this school. Kurt has no one. Yeah, he has Finn, but Finn really isn't a good help with anything. Should I hang out with him this weekend? Oh, how I miss those days…whoa, baby steps, Blaine, baby steps.

Avery was Blaine's friend since pre-school. She had been there for everything: His first time being held back a grade, his transfer to Dalton and then to McKinley, coming out to not only his family but the entire world, being rejected by Kurt who was seemingly his best friend at the time, being rescued from his loneliness by Tina and eventually Mike, and now—shoot, Blaine thought, I didn't tell her about Kurt and I making up. Well, she is going to receive an interesting visit tonight.

Soon, Mike, Tina, and Blaine took their seats in a little box-like formation around Kurt. Tina sat next to Kurt on his left, Mike across from Tina, which only left Blaine the seat in front of Kurt. Of course, Blaine thought. Mike and Tina were making chat with Kurt to get to know the real Kurt Hummel better and see if they would even take a liking to the former popular kid and school bully towards people like Blaine.

Blaine had long finished his lunch by the time he felt eyes staring at him. Two, in particular. He looked up in confusion to reach Kurt's mesmerizing ocean blue eyes resting on him. Blaine just stared back, a confused expression on his face. Luckily, Tina and Mike were too caught up in conversation to notice.

"So, Blaine, um, hi," Kurt started. He blushed and then buried his head. Blaine suddenly remembered how shy Kurt seemed to get in awkward scenarios. Aww…don't feel bad, Kurt!

"…..hi," Blaine's reply took longer than he intended. YOU'RE GONNA SCARE HIM OFF! REPLY, DARNIT!

"Look, I realize we've had a rough past, because of myself, but I'd really like to fix that. I mean, as well as I can."

"I told you I would think about it."

"…Right, well, since we're here now, how are you?"

"I've been fine, really, uh, nothing's changed," except my entire life because of you, "How've you been?"

"Honestly? Or the lie that everyone else is silly enough to believe?"

"Uh, I'd like to hear both, but the lie first."

"Lie first? Yeah, life's great, you know. Just beating up helpless kids everyday so the Cheerio's won't do the same to me and in return I get picked on by them anyway just so my social status doesn't drop. Honestly? I regret ever saying a word to those…lousy…potatoes!"

Blaine laughed. "Potatoes?"

"Yeah! Rotten, uncooked, potatoes!"

They continued the pointless chats, well, it seemed pointless to anyone else listening. To Blaine and Kurt? It meant the world. It meant that the war was over. It meant that they could continue pretending the incident had never occurred. Well, that is until the bell rang. The four stood up, Blaine and Kurt exchanging worriedly glances once again. From that point on, the awkwardness kicked in. This is going to take a long time, isn't it? Kurt thought.

That night, Blaine knocked on Avery's door to find her open it soon after the first knock.

"Fancy seeing you here, Anderson," Avery replied with a smirk.

"I've got some news, A."

"Oooh! Do tell!"

"You might wanna sit down for this one…"

Blaine walked in and gestured for her to take a seat on the couch.

"It's….it's…."

"Spit it out, boy!"

"…..Kurt."

Avery's eyes grew wide and her jaw dropped. "OH NO HE DIDN'T…"

A/N: OHH SHOOOT! YOU'RE ABOUT TO MEET MY OC, AVERY :)
