Hey guys been doing a lot of uni work the last few days (finally) also had a bit of writers block so if this is not as good as the other chapters let me know how to get back to that standard
Next chapter should be on Saturday as I have work again tomorrow ( I work in a cinema and its harry potter weekend so I'm going to be knackerd)
A few days passed but Sophie didn't hear anything more from Kurt or Dave. She spent Fridays at the university and then the weekend at home with her boyfriend.
Come Monday she was desperate to hear what had happened. When she had left Dave he was determined to seek out Kurt and apologise for the way he had acted but he had never got back to her. She didn't feel right testing him or calling him, it was to personal to pry that much into a student's life. All she could do was be there for him when he needed it.
When she had not herd anything from either of them by Tuesday she made it her mission to find one of them. The opportunity came on Tuesday after Glee club.
"Hey Kurt wait up." She ran to catch him. "Can we talk in private for a moment?" Kurt nodded and she ushered him into a classroom. "How have things been? I haven't herd from you in a few days?"
"Not to bad. I've been spending a lot of time with Blaine recently. It's been fun." He seemed genuinely happy.
"What about those bully's? Still giving you grief?" smoootthhh… She was glad he didn't know she had been talking to Dave otherwise it would have been very obvious she was prying.
"Not as much. I try and stay out of their way. I got pushed into the lockers on Thursday at the end of the day by Korofsky but other than that they have left me alone." He smiled sadly up at her. "Do you mind if I go my friends are waiting for me."
"Oh yeah sure" she motioned for him to leave. Sophie put her bag down on a chair and lent against a table. Why would he do that? What happened to befriending Kurt?
A week passed and she didn't get more than a quick glance of Dave. He was always ducking into bathrooms or the boy's changing rooms. That Wednesday Shannon had asked her to stand in for her with hockey practice. She was having problems with the football team…something about athlete's foot.
The practice passed pretty quickly, she was more of a track runner herself so team sports were a bit of a blur to her. "Ok guys that was great. Ill let the coach know how it went. You can go now" They started to file past her to the locker room. "Dave can I have a word please?"
Dave walked towards her his head bowed low. "What?" he asked in a low and threatening tone. He was a far cry from the emotional wreck he was the last time she had seen him.
"I just wanted to know if you were ok. The last time we spoke you said some pretty big things to me and you haven't been near me since. I asked Kurt…" she was cut short by a low hissing sound from him. "Shut up" he barked at her.
"What? I don't understand. I thought you wanted my help?" she was genuinely confused at his behaviour. It was obvious from his stance that he had changed his mind about coming out.
When Dave next spoke his words came out louder and more forceful than she had herd him be before. " I don't need your help. Stick to your gays and faggots and leave me alone" he stormed of into the changing rooms and received a high five from Azizmo.
What was going on with him? She wondered what had brought about the sudden change in him.
After practice she was cornered by sue. She followed sue past her office and into figgins office. Sue sat down behind the desk and motioned for her to sit.
"Figgins has been fired. Im now acting head teacher for William McKinley high school. At first I didn't like you because you being here meant my budget was cut. Then I decided it was just your face. You to happy." Sue turned on a screen to her right and a picture of Sophie hugging Dave in a classroom. His large frame covered her small one quite easily. The picture looked more sexual that it had been. Sophie knew she was in trouble.
"You see this? It had audio too. I showed it to the Boy and he agreed to press charges against you if I don't leak this onto you tube. This way he looks like a big man who had sex with the assistant and not a raging homosexual. I'm going to level with you Sophie, I want you to leave. I want my budget back and I want the students to be in a constant state of fear…you calm them with your young person presence." Sue looked satisfied with herself.
"Wow blackmail. That's new." Sophie smiled at sue. This should have brought about fear in her but it didn't. It stirred something that had not been stirred in a long time. Anger. " How about I level with you Sue. I thought I was going to be in trouble as soon as you cornered me so I text my boyfriend and then phoned him, he has been recording this entire conversation." She pulled her phone out of her pocket and showed sue the screen. " He works for a prominent law firm as a junior member, he has been promoted three times in the eighteen months he has worked there and the firms most famous lawyer has taken it upon himself to mentor him"
Sues face fell. She looked enraged.
"So how about you give me the copy you have there before I take you to court for blackmail, slander and deformations of character." The anger radiating from the other side of the table made Sophie giddy with power. " Also there are quite a few students at my university that are still looking for placements in Lima. It would be nice if they could suddenly find themselves in placements by the end of the week." She reached forwards and took the DVD from sues hands.
"It was nice talking to you sue" Sophie stood up and walked out of the room. A wide smile spread across her face when she heard a scream and the smash of the Television sue had been using as it came crashing down on the floor.
