Nobody said it was easy
Blaine felt like he was in someone else's body. This wasn't him. He never hid himself. But yet here he was, hiding from the other Warblers. Usually this would be because they were playing hide and go seek, but not this time. This time, its different. He could remember hearing the conversation between Nick, Jeff, Wes, David, and Trent. It stung. Remembering what happened brought tears to Blaine's eyes.
~Flashback (to about twenty minutes ago)~
Blaine was just going to grab his books out of the common room when he heard a few people talking. He stopped to listen.
"Have you guys noticed anything different about Blaine?" Wes asked. He always was the one to care too much.
"Yeah he's acting weird. Not like himself." Jeff pointed out.
"I wonder if something is wrong?" Nick whispered.
"I am starting to think so. He used to be so excited and caring to other, never miss an opportunity to help one of us." Wes stated.
"Now he just keeps to himself." Trent said.
"I once caught him crying in his room." Wes said. Remembering the time that he was going to talk to Blaine about performing at a nursing home, but could hear the small boy crying.
"Just give him some time guys. He's probably just stressed. He has a lot going on." David said finally speaking.
Blaine whimpered causing all the boys to turn. Blaine was scared that one of them would push him into talking, so he ran, ran to the one place that he knew he could be alone. In the courtyard. It was raining cats and dogs, so no one would find him.
The five Warblers were in panic. They saw Blaine was, and he never did that. Soon Wes had all the Warblers gathered together in the senior commons.
"Okay Warblers. Listen up." Wes was standing on a table getting the Warblers attention. They all turned to face him and he started talking. "Blaine ran off. We all have noticed that he has been distant recently, but he has never run off like he just did. So we all need to split up and search for him. We all need our brother back." The Warblers all split and started searching. Kurt caught up to Nick and Jeff who all agreed to go search outside.
"Lets go grab our rain gear and look outside." Jeff said looking out at the rain that was pouring down. They all ran to their dorms, emerging five minutes later in rain coats, boots and with umbrellas.
Blaine was crying in the rain. He had been out there for who knows how long. He wasn't cold anymore. The rain had soaked through his blazer, and his hair was starting to pop out of its gel. But he didn't care. No one was going to find him anyway. He started quietly singing to himself.
I hope you know
I hope you know
That this has nothing to do with you
It's personal myself and I
We've got some straightening up to do
And I'm gonna miss you
Like a child misses their blanket
But I've gotta get a move on with my life
Its time to be a big boy now
And big boys don't cry
Jeff heard Blaine singing in the distance and started following it. He stopped at what he saw. This wasn't Blaine. Blaine was so strong. This, this was someone else. Jeff pulled out his phone to call Nick and Kurt but found his phone to be dead. He needed to get Blaine out of the rain first.
"Blaine?" Jeff said.
Blaine turned at his name, and there was Jeff standing in rain gear, coming to find him. Blaine went over to hug the boy. They hadn't been so close lately, but he really needed a hug.
"Jeff." Blaine whispered, pulling in the warmth Jeff had.
"We need to get you inside." Jeff said pulling Blaine over to the school. Blaine followed reluctantly. He didn't want to go, but knew he had too.
When they got inside,Wes ran over to Blaine and checked him over, then pulling him into a hug.
"You had us so worried." Wes whispered into his ear.
"Sorry." Blaine said feeling upset that he had caused so much, drama.
"Why don't you go get cleaned up before you get sick. I'll call all of the Warblers in." Blaine went over to his dorm and turned on the shower, to nice hot water.
After Blaine got cleaned up, it was time for Warbler practice. Wes wanted to try out a Fun. number. Blaine wasn't sure how this would work out. Blaine took the lead, as usual, with Kurt taking small parts.
(Blaine, Kurt Both)
Some nights I stay up cashing in my bad luck
Some nights I call it a draw
Some nights I wish that my lips could build a castle
Some nights I wish they'd just fall off
But I still wake up, I still see your ghost
Oh, Lord, I'm still not sure what I stand for oh
Woah oh oh (What do I stand for?)
Woah oh oh (What do I stand for?)
Most nights I don't know anymore...
Oh, whoa, oh, whoa, oh, whoa, oh, oh,
Oh, whoa, oh, whoa, oh, whoa, oh, oh
This is it, boys, this is war - what are we waiting for?
Why don't we break the rules already?
I was never one to believe the hype
Save that for the black and white
I try twice as hard and I'm half as liked,
But here they come again to jack my style
That's alright (that's alright)
I found a martyr in my bed tonight
She stops my bones from wondering just who I am, who I am, who I am
Oh, who am I? Mmm... Mmm...
Well, some nights I wish that this all would end
'Cause I could use some friends for a change.
And some nights I'm scared you'll forget me again
Some nights I always win, I always win...
But I still wake up, I still see your ghost
Oh, Lord, I'm still not sure what I stand for, oh
Woah oh oh (What do I stand for?)
Woah oh oh (What do I stand for?)
Most nights I don't know... (oh, come on)
So this is it. I sold my soul for this?
Washed my hands of that for this?
I miss my mom and dad for this?
(Come on)
No. When I see stars, when I see, when I see stars, that's all they are
When I hear songs, they sound like this one, so come on.
Oh, come on. Oh, come on. Oh, come on!
Well, that is it guys, that is all - five minutes in and I'm bored again
Ten years of this, I'm not sure if anybody understands
This one is not for the folks at home;
Sorry to leave, mom, I had to go
Who the heck wants to die alone all dried up in the desert sun?
My heart is breaking for my sister and the con that she call "love"
When I look into my nephew's eyes...
Man, you wouldn't believe the most amazing things that can come from...
Some terrible nights... ah...
Oh, whoa, oh, whoa, oh, whoa, oh, oh,
Oh, whoa, oh, whoa, oh, whoa, oh, oh
The other night you wouldn't believe the dream I just had about you and me
I called you up but we'd both agree
It's for the best you didn't listen
It's for the best we get our distance... Oh...
It's for the best you didn't listen
It's for the best we get our distance... Oh.
The Warblers all ended clapping each other on the back. It was really good. Just as usual. But something in Blaine felt different and he couldn't tell if that was good or bad.
A/N: Sorry it took so long. I've just been crazy busy. So here is longerish chapter! Yay! Who liked that Glee last night? I did, kinda. Anyway until next time.
