A/N: I'd like to thank Miko Akako for being the awesomest Beta ever. I want to thank jekyllhj7 and KurtofskyoverKlaine for the lovely reviews. They make my heart glad to see them in inbox. :D I have to say, however, I'm very disappointed in how many people don't review D: Even if it's just one word! I'd love it!

I'm sorry for the wait again. My summer Government classes just started and I've been very busy. I don't know how I managed to find time to even type this up. I promise to update as soon as possible.

Now… Without further ado… Enjoy. I like this chapter a lot. :D


Please Don't Break My Heart

Chapter 9 Love… SLEEPOVER STYLE!

Christian pretended not to hear the girls calling after him as ran all the way to his car and didn't stop until he got into the front seat. He sat in the car without turning it on, trying to clear his head and control his emotions. He slammed his head on the steering wheel and said, "Why did you do that?" He raised his head and stared at the pavement gleaming in the sun. "Christian, you are such an idiot." He told himself as he put the key in the ignition.

His phone rang from his bag and he read the text from Mercedes.

R U OK? I saw you run out of the auditorium a minute ago… :(

Christian didn't know how to answer that question. He quickly sent one back that said:

Not really :(

Half a minute later her reply said:

Want me and Rache to come over? Sleepover? :D.

He hesitated for a moment before quickly typing:

Yep. My house 6?

Defiantly… I'll tell the girls! :D

He sighed and put his phone away… He turned the radio on and for once, didn't sing along with the songs. He was barely paying attention to the road. His mind kept wandering back to the auditorium… he could feel Dave's arms around him, and how soft his lips were… He shook his head as if he could shake away the memories that made his heart skip a beat and his face heat up.

He finally got home and to his relief his parents weren't home yet. He really needed to be alone for a while before the girls came over. He had to control the butterflies fluttering in his stomach whenever he thought of Dave…

It is just a crush he told himself… It'll pass. It almost hurt to think about. He knew this feeling… He's falling in love…

He had to stop this before it got out of control. He walked into the kitchen and leaned against the counter. He couldn't understand how he could like Dave this much already. His stomach did flip-flops whenever they spoke. How his skin tingled when Dave just looked at him…

A knock at the door pulled him out of his thoughts. He stood up and quickly walked to get the door. Mercedes and Rachel stood on his front porch, each one holding a small bag. The girls smiled at Christian and walked into his house.

*Pause*

Christian sat behind Rachel braiding her hair as she braided Mercedes' hair. He sat in silence and listened as Rachel complained about Finn, and Mercedes gushed about how awesome boyfriend Sam is. Suddenly, Rachel said, "So Christian. Who do you like at McKinley?"

Christian's hands froze in Rachel's hair. "What do you mean?" He continues to braid her long brown hair slowly, more guarded than before.

"Who do you like? Who do you wish to date? Who are you crushing on? Etcetera." Mercedes answered quickly.

Christian hesitated before saying, "W- Why does that matter?"

The girls squealed and Mercedes said, "Spill. Who is it?"

Christian quietly said, "I-I Don't like—"

"Don't even try to lie to us." Mercedes said, turning to look at him. "Spill."

"Well…" Christian said, pulling the braid tight and wrapping a small ponytail around the end and leaning back against the couch."There is one guy… But it can't happen." He said firmly.

"Why not? Is he taken?" Rachel asked turning to face him.

"No, I don't think so…. But it just can't happen." Christian said, staring at the carpet. I won't let it happen Christian added, mentally.

"Who?" They both asked at the same time.

"It's not important." Christian said quietly.

They were silent for a few seconds before Mercedes said, "Fine. Then tell us why you ran out of the auditorium and ignored us calling you?"

"I didn't ignore you," Christian answered quickly.

"So you admit running out of the auditorium," Rachel said, leaning forward.

"Well… I did run out of the auditorium." Christian seemed to make a snap judgment at that moment. He quickly sat up straight and said, "You can't tell anyone. Promise?" He looked at the pair of girls sitting in front of him. They nodded enthusiastically and Christian took a deep breath. "I did something I shouldn't have… I-I kissed someone…"

The girls squealed again and said, "That's fantastic! But wait… you said it couldn't happen…" Rachel looked confused for a moment. "But you kissed him. Who is it?"

Christian bit his lip, "It's… It's Dave." He said, staring at the carpet.

The girls stared at him with looks of astonishment on their faces. They had the same looks on their faces after Dave had first come out, they'd all become good friends, but they never expected him to find anyone…

Rachel was the one who spoke first, "It makes sense… Haven't you seen the looks Dave's been giving Christian in the club?" She asked Mercedes, who nodded. Rachel smiled and asked, "Then why can't it work? You obviously like each other… "

"He did kinda ask me out…" Christian said quietly.

"And…" Mercedes said expectantly.

"And I said no."

Mercedes looked at him shocked and said loudly, "And why on earth did you do that? Silly Boy."

"Christian. You like him… He likes you… I say go for it. Take a chance, say yes!" Rachel said, grabbing his shoulders and shaking him a little.

Christian shook his head and said, "I can't—I just can't." He got up and pushed the play button on the DVD player. The opening credits for Moulin Rouge were playing on the screen. Christian sat down and refused to say another word about Dave.
