"You were expelled!" Kurt spluttered "What for!"

"I'm getting to that" Blaine said, obviously expecting that reaction from him "I was in junior year, at my school and I decided to come out. I was tired of lying to everyone. Of course everyone went psycho and I was left with only a few friends. I was getting bullied pretty badly. I admired Flint more than anyone and I always had. He was the most popular guy in school, he was head of the glee club and was open with everyone about his sexuality. For some reason they accepted him, not me. Probably because he slept with just about every cheerleader on the squad. And I was a nobody.
But then after I came out he started to notice me. And I loved it. I had, had a huge crush on him since forever. And the day he asked me out I was over the moon." Blaine took a deep breath "We dated for three months. He helped me with the bully thing. But there was this one guy Ian, who much like your Karofsky guy would not leave me alone.
It was terrible. I got my face in the toilet several times a day and I'd had enough. Flint could see how bad I was taking it and one day he confronted Ian. They got into a huge fight and he pushed Ian and he fell down a flight of stairs" Blaine's voice was nearly a whisper "He was paralysed from the waist down. He told on Ian but I couldn't let him get expelled for something I did. I told them that I was the one who pushed ian and ian never told otherwise. Neither did Flint.
That upset me. I think in a way I wasn't expecting him to let me take the fall. So I was expelled and hurt that Flint didn't dob himself in and I broke up with him and hadn't spoken to him since." Blaine sighed "Then he came here and kept threatening to tell you so I thought it better come from me than him"

"Would you have told me if it wasn't for Flint?" Kurt wondered

Blaine was hesitant to answer "Probably not" He admitted truthfully

"Blaine if this relationship is going to work, we need honesty" Kurt told him

"It does" Blaine agreed "Which is why it's your turn to be honest with me"

"What are you talking about?" Kurt asked

"You don't like it here at Dalton?" It was more a statement than a question

Kurt sighed "I do… but I miss McKinley. I miss my friends… I miss Glee. I like Dalton because there's no Karofsky or evil football team and the Warblers are well liked and there's you" Blaine smiled "And Wes and David. But I just miss McKinley" Kurt admitted

"You've felt like this the whole time haven't you" Kurt nodded "I noticed, but I thought you'd adjust. Obviously not" Kurt lowered his head sadly "I don't like to admit this but I was listening in to your conversation with your friends after opening night. They say they can protect you…?"

"Kind of. All the guys are on the football team. They can, sort of. But I don't want them to have to do that."

"What if I could protect you?" Kurt's head snapped up

"What are you suggesting?" Kurt asked

"What if I came back to McKinley with you?"
