"Honey, there's no need to over react-" Harry started, setting his briefcase down, his face a mask of boredom.

"Over react? YOU SOLD OUR HOUSE!" Regina shouted.

"So what if I did? You hate living in Lima" Harry sat down on the couch and moved to turn the television on.

"So you just sold the house? Where are we going to live?"

"I bought a house in Westerville for us"

"Well you can cancel it. I'm not moving anywhere" Regina picked up her phone and turned to leave the room.

"Yes. You are" Harry said, standing up.

"I'm not moving to some random town just because you don't want to live here anymore. Now call up whoever you're working with and get my house back"

"So now it's your house?" Harry said, his cheeks flaring with rage.

"Well it's not like you care about where we live. As long as you call the shots you don't give a crap!" She walked away and slipped her heels on.

"Where are you going?" Harry asked, his voice raising.

"Like you'd care, you'll just sell more of my things" Regina turned the door knob and was about to open it further when Harry's hand shot past her head like a bullet and slammed it shut.

"What the hell?"

"You can't just walk out. We need to pack"

"I told you. I'M NOT GOING ANYWHERE" pushing Harry's hand away, she tried to open the door again. Harry's hand enclosed on her wrist painfully.

"Yes, we are. It's my decision and we're leaving!" Harry shouted.

"Why don't you just go? You can find some slut to sleep with every night. I wouldn't be surprised if you haven't already cheated on me!"

"You stupid bitch! I love you, that's why I did this. It's an opportunity that we will never get again"

"No you did this for you! I love Lima, you're the one that wants to move!" She tried to pull her hand away but Harry wouldn't let go.

"You know what, You've been cold with me for two years now. Are you cheating on me? Is that why you want to me move?" Harry's grip tightened and Regina winced in pain.

"Get off me. NOW. And don't try and make out that I'm the bad guy. Just wait until Blaine and Cooper-"

"Blaine is soft, he's not gonna give a crap what happens!" Harry finally let go of Regina's wrist, and turned around.

"Is this what this is about? Blaine? He's not tough enough for you? What the hell is wrong with you. Blaine is your son! Moving isn't going to change him"

"You know what? I think I will move by myself. But I'm taking the kids with me"

"Don't be pathetic. It's up to them. But you're not going to give them a choice are you. Nobody ever gets a choice when it comes to you" Regina screamed.

"Shut up! Just. Shut. Up" He screamed back. Pulling the phone out of her hand he turned and threw it with as much force as he could muster at the wall. It shattered into pieces on the floor.

Regina pushed her hair back stressfully and spun around to face the door. Leaning against it, she took in a deep breathe and tried to calm down.

"Go to Westerville. But I'm not going with you" She spun back around to face him with tears threatening to spill down her cheeks, and stared at him, her voice scarily calm.

"Fine"

She turned around and pulled the door open before storming out of the house. Just as she walked out of the garden, Blaine was there, humming quietly to himself.

"Hey, mom" He smiled. After noticing her expression he asked; "What's wrong?"

"I'm just picking up my car from Burt's garage. We can talk later" She carried on walking, not able to look at Blaine; She didn't want him to see the pain in her eyes.

"Mom!" He called after her. When he realized she wasn't going to turn back around, Blaine ran inside to find his dad.

"Dad?" He shouted.

"Up here!" His father's voice called from up the stairs. Blaine found him in his parent's bedroom with two empty suitcases. He was rifling through the closet, pulling coats and dresses and suits out.

"What are you doing?" Blaine asked.

"We're moving. I'm packing" Harry shrugged.

"We're moving?" Blaine spluttered.

"Yes. To Westerville. It's a wonderful place" His dad smiled, lost in thought.

"So why was mom so upset?" Blaine asked.

"She's leaving us, Blaine. She's not going with us" Harry said with a grimace, folding up some more clothes.

"But I don't want to leave mom. Can't I stay with her?"

"No" Harry's voice was firm and made Blaine want to flinch.

"She doesn't want you. Or Cooper. She said so herself" Harry lied. Blaine felt like someone had punched him in the gut. Had his mom actually said that?

"Fine. I'll go and pack" Blaine muttered.

"Regina? What's wrong?" Burt asked when he saw Regina. He stepped away from the car he was working on and looked at her tear stained face.

"It's Harry again. I've just come to get my car" Regina sighed.

"Do you a drink? Tea or coffee?"

"I'm fine, thank you Burt"

"Are you sure you don't want to talk?"

"Okay" Regina said, a small smile on her lips. She was incredibly grateful for Burt, and everything he's done.

Burt sat down in a chair and signalled for Regina to sit. He noticed a purple bruise forming around Regina's wrist and his heart pounded uncontrollably in his chest.

"So what's he done now?" Burt asked, picking up and old rag and cleaning the oil from his hands.

"He sold the house. He's moving to- What's it called? -I don't remember the name. But he's going to take Blaine and Cooper. I don't know what to do"

"Can he just take the kids like that? Without your permission?"

"Yeah, I don't want to take him to court for it. It'll just be too hard on Blaine" Regina dropped her head into her hands and sucked in a breathe.

"I'm sorry, Regina. What are you going to do?" Burt asked.

"I think I'll stay with my mom for awhile, down in Columbus"

"Do you know when they're leaving?" Burt asked.

"No, but some time this week I imagine. He wanted to start packing now"

"That'll be before Kurt comes back" Burt murmured. Regina looked up suddenly.

"Blaine will be heartbroken" Regina whispered.

Three days later..

Harry had loaded up a moving van with everything they were taking. Regina had told Blaine that Harry had lied to him, and that she did want to live with him. But there was nowhere for them to stay. Not yet.

"Just wait until I get settled somewhere"

Blaine was trying not to cry, knowing what his dad would say.

"Wait, wait. What about Kurt? I need to ring him" The idea had completely slipped Blaine's mind. How could he not think about Kurt, His best friend?

"Yeah, of course. I totally forgot" Regina reached into her pocket before remembering that she didn't have a phone anymore.

"You'll have to use your dads phone. considering what he did to mine" Regina glared at Harry.

"I don't have his aunties number" Harry said with out emotion. "Now can we go?"

"Mum, I can't not ring Kurt. I need to speak to him" Blaine clutched the window frame of the truck.

"Don't worry. I'll get the number off Burt and email your dad" Regina lay her hand on top of Blaine's.

"Please don't leave me mum" Blaine begged. Regina looked over at Cooper who was looking out at the empty road ahead of them.

"Just keep an open mind. I'll try and speak to you every day, okay. Just wait until I've got a place of my own" Regina kissed Blaine's forehead. She could feel tears pricking at the backs of her eyes.

"Bye mom" Blaine whispered.

"Bye Blaine. Bye Cooper" Regina looked over to Cooper who had been trying to ignore her, believing Harry when he said she chose not to go with them; It was only partly true.

"Bye" He mumbled.

And then Regina stepped away from the truck and watched as it drove off until she couldn't see it anymore. Then she let the tears she had been holding back tumble down her cheeks.

Three Days Later..

Kurt was practically bouncing in his seat as he watched the familiar streets of Lima fly past him. He was home again and he couldn't wait to see Rachel and Burt and, of course, Blaine.

As Alice pulled into his garden, Kurt opened the car door before the car had even turned off. He let Alice get his bags as he ran inside, throwing open the door and bounding into the living room where his dad was sat watching TV. Kurt was too excited to notice the slightly worried expression on his face.

"Kurt!" The expression on Burt's face turned to complete love as his thirteen year old son wrapped his arms around his waist.

After greeting Alice, Kurt went into full detail on everything he had been up to.

"... And I can't wait to tell Blaine and Rachel" Kurt finished five minutes later.

"Can I go see Blaine now? I'll let him know I'm home" Burt's heart broke at the happy smile on his son's face, knowing how upset he would be when he found out about Blaine. He'd already lost his mother and now his best friend has gone with out even saying good bye. Who knew when they'd next see each other.

"What's wrong, Dad?" Kurt asked. His smile left his face as he stared at his dad. Something was wrong.

"It's Blaine" Burt said uncomfortably. A million thoughts flew through Kurt's mind. Had Puck hurt Blaine? Was he injured? Was he in hospital?

"He's gone" Burt placed a hand on Kurt's shoulder. Kurt had heard them words before, about his mom. Was Blaine dead? He thought. But he knew he was being ridiculous.

"Harry made him move away whilst you were gone. I don't know where they went or if they'll be coming back. But Regina doesn't have a phone and I don't have Harry's number" Burt mumbled.

"No. You're joking. Why would you tell me that?" Kurt stood up hastily and ran to the front door. Alice called his name after him but he didn't reply. He ran across the road and knocked loudly on the door. The house felt eerily empty. There was no car parked in the garden.

Kurt remembered the last time he'd seen Blaine, just before he left to go to Alice's house. Blaine's face had been bruised but he was smiling so brightly you could hardly see the cuts.

"See you soon" was the last thing Blaine had said. Kurt could hear it like an echo in the back of his mind.

No one answered the door.
