As Luke and I walked to Spanish, the next thing I knew Luke had disappeared. I poked my head into the nearby boys' bathroom and heard Wright threatening Luke, who sounded like he couldn't breathe.
"What the fuck are you doing?" I ran in to see Wright holding Luke up against the wall by his neck. Luke looked at me and motioned for me to leave with his right hand.
"I'm just giving this little fucker what he deserves for using a needle on me," Wright snarled, a sadistic grin on his face as Luke pulled at his hands.
"Let him go!" I yelled, trying to tackle Wright, but the fucking hockey player that he was and the great deal of muscle mass prevented me from actually being able to do anything. I took the next thing I could do and yanked at that damn mullet that he and the others all have. Wright yelled and released Luke, who slid to the floor, gasping for air. I bent down next to him and held him as Wright backed up against the sink.
"I'm gonna fucking kill you, Hummel," Wright said, rubbing his scalp.
"I'll do the pleasure of me killing you first," Luke gasped, reaching for his bag and pulling a switchblade out. Rubbing his neck, Luke was about to throw himself at Wright until I yanked him back. "Kurt, let me go!" Luke yelled; he continued to struggle furiously, so I put my hand on the back of his neck, which I know calms him. It worked and he slumped into my arms. Wright left the bathroom; shooting both of us death glares.
"Luke, are you okay?" I asked as we walked outside to watch the Cheerios practice before after-school Glee club.
"Yeah, I'm fine," he muttered. "Thanks for holding me back, God knows, I'd probably be dead had I actually made contact with Wright."
"No problem," I kissed him. He smiled and kissed me back.
"Well, Kurt, you should know, I have a lot of anger issues, that's why I do shit like using mace on people," he explained.
"Can I ask where the anger stems from?" I asked.
"Bullying mostly, some is from dating Jesse," he shrugged.
"I love you," I said.
"I love you too," he replied
"I have a song to sing before Finn and Rachel do their duet," Luke announced when everyone settled in. "It won't take long, I promise. I just want to express my love for Kurt.
"When you meet a boy
That you like a lot
And you fall in love
But he loves you not
If a flame should start
As you're holdin' me
Better keep your heart
Out of danger, dear
"For the way of love
Is a way of woe
And the day may come
When you'll see him go
Then what will you do?
When it sets you free?
Just the way that you
Said goodbye to me,"
Luke sang and everybody clapped. He sat back down next to me, wiping his eyes. I kissed him.
"Ok, Finn and Rachel, your duet," Mr. Schuester said as the clapping died down. I saw them look at each other with knowing glances before they started.
"We were strangers starting out on a journey
Never dreaming what we'd have to go through
Now here we are and I'm suddenly standing
At the beginning with you
"No one told me I was going to find you
Unexpected what you did to my heart
When I lost hope, you were there to remind me
This is the start
"And life is a road and I wanna keep going
Love is a river, I wanna keep flowing
Life is a road, now and forever, what a wonderful journey
I'll be there when the world stops turning
I'll be there when the storm is through
In the end, I wanna be standing at the beginning with you,"
Finn and Rachel finished and everybody applauded.
"We only have one more duet, Kurt and Luke, and it will be performed in the morning. Good Glee club, guys," Mr. Schuester said.
