Chapter 11
Blaine came charging in the front door with a scowl look on his face.
"What's wrong sweetheart?", Pam asked.
"I don't want to talk about it.", Blaine yelled.
"Blaine Devon Anderson, don't yell at me because you are having a bad day. I am still your mother and I have every right to know what is bothering you.", Pam yelled back.
"I am sorry for yelling but I don't want to talk about it. I am sixteen years old and at a prime age to take care of my own problems. Please respect my privacy, mom.", Blaine answered.
"Ok, I respect your privacy but if you change your mind I will be here. Do you want something to eat?", Pam asked.
"No. I am not hungry. I am going to go work out in the basement before the kids come home from school.", Blaine said.
"Ok.", Pam said.
Blaine went to his room to change into his workout clothes. As he took out his phone he realized that he had a voicemail message. It's probably Dalton Academy calling to get me to come back, he thought; so he ignored it. Once he was dressed he went down to the basement, turned on his stereo, put on his boxing gloves and then started to get all his frustrations out on the bag hanging in the corner.

Kurt decided to eat his lunch in the classroom so he could concentrate on Blaine. Just when he pulled out his smoked turkey and cheese sandwich, his phone rings. He grabbed his phone and answered it without looking to see who was calling him.
"Where are you Kurt?", Jeff asked.
"I am still in the classroom. I need some privacy to clear my head.", Kurt answered.
"Is this about Sebastian?", Jeff asked.
"No! I have other things on my mind right now.", Kurt said.
"Ok. Well if you need to talk, Nick and I are here.", Jeff said.
"I know guys. Thank you but I need to handle this on my own.", Kurt said as tears started to fall.
Kurt ended the call and looked at his messages before deciding to text Blaine again.
Blaine, Honey. Please call me. -Kurt
I am sorry about what happened at Dalton this morning. I was upset with Goolsby, not you. Please baby, call me! xoxo -Kurt
Lunch was over and Kurt still hadn't heard anything from Blaine. At this point he was really getting worried so he sent one last message before his fifth period class started.
Blaine please be at the Lima Bean at 4. I need to know that you are safe. I miss you. :'( Please let me explain what I meant. -Kurt
After school was dismissed, Blaine still didn't respond to any of Kurt's messages so Kurt sent one last message to let him know he was headed to the Lima Bean and hoping Blaine would be there.
I will be at the Lima Bean in 45 minutes. Please come. I love you baby. I am not upset with you, I promise. -Kurt
****************************************WelcomeToDalton******************************************
After Blaine finished his workout, he went upstairs to take a shower and get ready for work. When he appeared at his door, his phone started ringing. He realized that Kurt was calling so he let it go to voicemail and went to the bathroom.
Kurt sighed when he heard Blaine say, "Hi you reached Blaine Anderson, I am too busy to answer my phone right now so if you leave a message with a phone number I might call you back. If this is Kurt, I love you!"
Kurt started crying as he said, "Blaine, I have tried to contact you all day. Please answer me so I know that you are safe. Your voicemail says that you love me but this is no way to treat someone you love. Please let me explain why I said what I did at Dalton. If I don't hear from you in fifteen minutes then I am going to your house to find you. Please call me back! I am not mad at you... I love you."
Blaine came back to his room to get ready for work but he remembered that Kurt called him. When he picked up the phone he realized he had five text messages and two missed calls, all from Kurt. He was curious of what Kurt had to say so he decided to listen to the voicemails first.
The automated voice said, "You have two new messages in your mailbox. Your first new message is."
Blaine was surprised when he heard Kurt crying on the voicemail and said, "I love you too Blaine" before he hung up.
The automated voice came back and said, "To save this message press nine, to delete this message press seven, to replay this message press one, to disconnect press star (*)." Blaine decided to save the message for the time being so he pressed nine. The automated voice continued and said, "your first message will be saved for thirty days. Your second new message is."
Blaine knew something was bothering Kurt when he heard him crying again on the voicemail and then he heard him say, "Blaine, I have tried to contact you all day. Please answer me so I know that you are safe. Your voicemail says that you love me but this is no way to treat someone you love. Please let me explain why I said what I did at Dalton. If I don't hear from you in fifteen minutes then I am going to your house to find you. Please call me back! I am not mad at you... I love you."
At that point, Blaine looked at his alarm clock, noticing that is has been fifteen minutes since Kurt called him so he hung up on voicemail and got ready for work quickly.
****************************************WelcomeToDalton******************************************
Kurt waited an extra ten minutes at the Lima Bean hoping that Blaine was running late. Just as he was about to leave, Curtis Duval walked up to him and asked, "Did you figure out what you are going to do about your situation? You told me this morning that you would have a decision made this evening."
Kurt looked Curtis in the eyes and said, "I am not filing a police report. I have other problems right now and Sebastian is the least of my worries. I appreciate your support but I can't deal with the police and courts right now."
Curtis replied, "Ok. Just remember you are always safe here at the Lima Bean. Is there anything else I can do for you, Kurt?"
"Could I get a medium drip and another grande non-fat mocha, please?", Kurt asked.
"Sure. Where is that young man from this morning? Weren't you supposed to meet him here this afternoon?", Curtis asked.
"We had a fight so he decided not to meet me. I am hoping he will talk to me when I get to his house.", Kurt said.
"Well these are on me but you may want to get him some flowers. That is what I do when my wife and I get into an argument. The flower shop next door knows me by name.", Curtis said with a smirk.
"Thanks for the suggestion, Mr. Duval.", Kurt said.
"I told you this morning, it's Curtis.", he said.
"Sorry!", Kurt apologized.
"Here are your coffee's, Kurt. I hope it works out between the two of you, I liked seeing you smile this morning.", Curtis said.
"Thank you, Curtis. I hope so too.", Kurt said as he stepped out of the Lima Bean.
Kurt went next door to the Lima Floral Shoppe and said, "Curtis Duval suggested that I come here and purchase two dozen long stem roses for the love of my life. I need one dozen yellow and one dozen red, please."
The florist smiled and responded with a wink, "You and your love must be fighting, that is the only time Curtis sends customers our way."
"You guessed right. I was the stupid one and I need to beg for forgiveness.", Kurt said.
"Well sweetie, these would make me weak in the knee so I do believe your love will accept them as well. Do you want them in a vase with baby's breath?" The florist asked.
"I would love baby's breath but it's easier for me transport them without a vase. Thank you.", Kurt said.
"I understand do you need anything else?", the florist asked.
"No that is all I need.", Kurt said.
"Ok, that will be $51.78.", she said as she wrapped the red and yellow roses in craft paper.
"Here is $60. Keep the change.", Kurt said.
"Aww, that is nice of you. Thank you.", she said as she handed the flowers over to him.
"No! Thank you!", Kurt said with a smile as he walked to the door.
****************************************WelcomeToDalton******************************************
Blaine came out of his bedroom with his phone in hand. He didn't see his mom at the bottom of the stairs and he accidentally bumped into her.
"Where are you going in such a hurry?", Pam asked.
"I have to go to work.", Blaine responded.
"You work at 7pm right? Why are you leaving so soon?", Pam asked.
"I need to make a few stops before I start work. I will be home after work mom. I love you.", Blaine said.
"I love you too sweetheart.", Pam said as she pulled him to her and hugged him. "Be safe, ok!"
"I will.", Blaine said as he picked up his guitar and walked to the front door.
****************************************WelcomeToDalton******************************************
Kurt pulled his Navigator out of the parking lot and headed towards Blaine's house with their coffee's in the cup holders and the beautiful bouquet of flowers sitting in the passenger's seat. He pulled into Blaine's driveway and took a deep breath before getting out. He walked up to the house with the coffee's in hand and knocked on the front door. When Kurt heard footsteps on the other side of the door, he got nervous.
"Good Afternoon, Kurt right?", Pam said with a surprised look on her face, as she answered the door.
"Good Afternoon, Mrs. Anderson. Is Blaine here?", Kurt asked.
"Uh, n-no he isn't. I t-thought he was headed to your house.", Pam answered.
"Why would you think that ma'am?", Kurt asked.
"I just assumed he was going there because he left for work 3 hours early. Please call me Pam.", she said.
"No we had plans to meet at the Lima Bean for coffee at 4pm but he never showed. I called him and left text messages but I haven't heard from him. So I thought I would bring him a coffee and see if he is ok.", Kurt said.
"That was sweet of you to bring him coffee. Especially when he had such a bad day.", Pam acknowledged.
"Will you drink a medium drip? I don't want it to go to waste or get cold. I will get him another one if he ever gets back in touch with me. Did he tell you what happened today?", Kurt asked.
"No! He said, 'I don't want to talk about it. I am sixteen years old and at a prime age to take care of my own problems.' He asked me to respect his privacy. I just wish I knew what happened at Dalton Academy. He was excited to attend a school with a zero-tolerance bullying policy that is enforced but he wouldn't talk to me. It seems he is pushing everyone he loves away. Shit. I shouldn't have said that.", Pam said.
"Can I come in? I want to tell you what happened at Dalton this morning.", Kurt said.
"Sure.", Pam said and moved aside to allow Kurt to come inside. "You know what happened at Dalton?"
"Yes, I was there. That is why I am trying to contact him. It was all a misunderstanding.", Kurt said as he sat on the couch and took a deep breath.
"Why were you there?", Pam asked.
"I am a fashion instructor at Dalton Academy.", Kurt said.
"Ok, that explains why you were there but what happened?", Pam asked.
"My day started off great because I saw Blaine at the Lima Bean this morning before going to work but then the day turned tragic very quickly. I was running late for work after my coffee stop. When I got to my class, the Dean had asked one of my colleagues to teach my class and have me come to the office. I thought there was an emergency so I immediately went to the office and when I got there the Dean introduced me to Dalton's new student. At that point we realized that we knew each other. Pam, I honestly did not know Blaine was sixteen, he works at Scandals. I thought he had to be at least twenty-one to work there." Kurt said.
"I know. Blaine didn't want you to know right away because he was afraid of losing your friendship for not being honest at the beginning.", Pam said.
"Damn! And now that I know he is sixteen, he thinks I am going to be upset and end our friendship for hiding the truth about his age.", Kurt sighs. "Pam, that is not going to happen. I care deeply for your son and his well being. More now than ever."
"I appreciate that Kurt. He has had a rough year and I don't think he could take anymore hurt. I am sorry for interrupting, please go on.", Pam said.
Kurt continued, "Well after we noticed each other, I went crazy and started yelling at the Dean. I asked him if this was my punishment for being late today and then I continued by saying, 'why can't my colleague be the tour guide. I am an instructor at this school not a damn tour guide.' At that point Blaine got out of his chair and said, 'I don't need a tour guide because I changed my mind. I don't want to come here anymore, I would rather take a beating at McKinley then be treated like a leper.' Pam, I didn't mean for it to sound like I wasn't interested in Blaine. I just thought it was best that my colleague give the tour because he didn't have anything to do first period and I had a class to teach. Dalton wants Blaine to attend at no charge to you or him. Dean Goolsby was very impressed with his scholarship essay and insured me that all funds will be taken care of by him, personally. I want to give him that message but I also want to talk to him and continue our friendship. I have read his scholarship essay as well and I am concerned that something more has happened at McKinley than he is telling anyone. And that scares me."
Pam nodded and said, "I have been wondering the same thing."
"Is there anywhere he could be?", Kurt asked.
"I don't know.", Pam said with a questioning look on her face. "Oh. I think I know where he might be. Here is the address. If he is not there then check at Scandals.", she said as she handed Kurt a piece of paper.
"Thank you, Pam. Can I have your phone number so I can call you and let you know when I find him. I just hope he doesn't get upset with me for telling you what happened this morning.", Kurt said.
"Let it be our secret, Kurt. I want him to come to me, if he needs to, ok?", Pam said.
"Ok, that will save both of us from upsetting him. I will just tell him I stopped by and you told me where he could be!", Kurt said.
"Sounds great, Kurt. Thank you for letting me know what happened. You are always welcome here.", Pam said.
"Your welcome, Pam. I am going to see if he is here.", Kurt said as he pointed at the paper in his hand and opened the door. "Thanks again."
Kurt jumped into his Navigator and pulled out of the driveway. He followed the directions and realized he was headed in the direction of his father's house. The address is only three blocks from the house he grew up in and then it hit him where Blaine was headed.
****************************************WelcomeToDalton******************************************
Blaine got to his destination, sat on the ground with his guitar on his lap and began singing.
When I find myself in times of trouble And in my hour of darkness
Mother Mary comes to me
Speaking words of wisdom
Let it be
She is standing right in front of me
Speaking words of wisdom
Let it be
Blaine looked down at the grass he was sitting on and took a deep breath before he continued singing.
Let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be And when the broken-hearted people For though they may be parted there is
Whisper words of wisdom
Let it be
Living in the world agree
There will be an answer
Let it be
Still a chance that they will see
There will be an answer
Let it be
Blaine hated that his dad was in the ground were he sat. He need his dad to comfort him when he lost someone else he loved so much.
Let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be Let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be
Yeah, there will be an answer
Let it be
Whisper words of wisdom
Let it be
Kurt started singing as he walked up to him and caused Blaine to stop strumming his guitar.
And when the night is cloudy I wake up to the sound of music
There is still a light that shines on me
Shine until tomorrow
Let it be
Mother Mary comes to me
Speaking words of wisdom
Let it be
Blaine joins Kurt as he finishes the words that needed to be said one last time.
Let it be, let it be, let it be, yeah, let it be Let it be, let it be, let it be, yeah, let it be
There will be an answer
Let it be
Whisper words of wisdom
Let it be
****************************************WelcomeToDalton******************************************
"What are you doing here, Kurt?", Blaine asked with questioning eyes.
"I have wanted to talk to you all day, I waited at the Lima Bean for you until 5pm. After you didn't show, I went to your house and your mom told me where you may be.", Kurt said.
"I got to go to work, I'll see you around.", Blaine said as he walked away.
Kurt grabbed Blaine's arm and said, "You are not leaving until we discuss this, Blaine."
"What is there to discuss. I already told you that I am not going to Dalton.", Blaine yelled.
"Why do you NOT want to go to Dalton? What made you change your mind?", Kurt asked sympathetic.
"I can't go to a school where I see you on a daily basis and can't express how deeply in love I am with you. It will be a bigger torture than the beatings I have received at McKinley from the whole football team.", Blaine said with tears in his eyes.
"Is that what this is about? Why did you say you were being treated like a leper?", Kurt asked.
"I couldn't say the real reason in front of Dean Goolsby, could I? I don't want you to get into trouble for taking my virginity last night. I saw the look on your face when I turned around and I knew we were not friends anymore and it broke my heart because I gave you everything and I get nothing in return.", Blaine said as he cried.
"Come here.", Kurt said as he wrapped his arms around Blaine and allowed him to have a good cry.
"I know your mad that I didn't tell you I was sixteen but I didn't tell you because I didn't want to ruin our friendship. To be honest, I fell in love with you the first moment I saw you at Scandals.", Blaine said as the tears continued to fall.
"I am not mad, Blaine. I was just shocked that you were sixteen. You are so mature for your age and nothing will ruin our relationship, I promise. There is only one person that had the same affect on me that you do and he died the night we had a date, when I was in high school.", Kurt said as he rubbed Blaine's back.
Blaine stood up and said, "I have to go, I need to be at work in fifteen minutes."
Kurt reached out, took Blaine's hand and said, "Let me give you a ride to Scandals. I was headed there tonight anyway."
"Really?", Blaine asked.
"Yeah. I have to meet someone that was accepted into Dalton Academy and I called his boss asking her if I could have a meeting with the young man tonight.", Kurt said with a smile on his face.
"I don't think it's a good idea to go to Dalton, Kurt. I told you why I changed my mind.", Blaine said.
"I know baby and I am going to change your mind again. I want you to go to Dalton because then I will know that you are safe. Plus, I will get to see you more often. Please change your mind, Blainey.", Kurt said as they walked to his Navigator.
Once they got to the Navigator, Kurt pushed Blaine up against it and kissed him with passion. Blaine hummed into the kiss and wrapped his arms around Kurt's neck, released the kiss and said, "You take my breath away."
Kurt opened the passenger's side door, reached in for the bouquet of roses and offered them to Blaine saying, "These are a peace offering and a hope that you will join my alma mater so that I can keep my eyes on you. Please consider your options, my sweet love."
"I will Kurtie. Can you get me to work now? I don't want to be late.", Blaine said.
"Sure, step on in. I will tell Rachel that I saw you before you came to work so we discussed the acceptance and that is why you are late.", Kurt said with a pat on the butt.
"Careful Kurtie. I am still a little sore.", Blaine said as he sat down.
"Did I hurt you last night?", Kurt asked.
"It's just a little uncomfortable but I don't regret anything we did yesterday.", Blaine said quickly.
"That is not what I am asking baby. I need to check you out and see that everything is okay. When we get to Scandals, tell Rachel that you need to go to the bathroom and then you will start. I will meet you in there and then I can see if I ripped you.. We need to check it out, ok?", Kurt said with concern.
"Ok", Blaine said.
****************************************WelcomeToDalton******************************************
They pulled into the Scandals parking lot and went in as individuals. Blaine went over to Rachel and said, "I am sorry that I am late, today when I got home, I had a visitor over to tell me that I was accepted into Dalton Academy." Blaine smiled and continued, "I will be ready to perform as soon as I go to the bathroom, ok?"
"Ok, Blaine. Congratulations on the acceptance. They called me this morning to tell me and to keep it a secret but since the secret is out, I guess we can talk about it. Just hurry, everyone has been asking about you.", Rachel said.
"I will hurry. Thank you Rachel.", Blaine said as he walked to the bathroom.
As soon as Blaine walked into that bathroom, Kurt pushed him into the handicapped stall and started unbuttoning his jeans and pulling them down to his knees. Blaine gasped when the cold air hit his cock and it made him hard instantly. Kurt smiled when he noticed how embarrassed Blaine was and said, "Baby, I need you to spread your legs apart and bend over the toilet so I can get a good look."
Blaine did as he was told and flinched when Kurt touched a sensitive spot.
"I'm sorry sweetheart, this might hurt a little bit.", Kurt said as he spread Blaine's butt cheeks apart so he could examine the puckered hole.
"It's ok, Kurtie. It is just a little sensitive.", Blaine said as he pulled his jeans back on.
"I demand that you come to my house tonight after work so I can examine it completely. I will call your mom to get permission. I told her I would call if I found you because she was starting to worry about you too.", Kurt said.
"I love it when you are demanding. If my mom says it's ok, then I will but only if I have permission.", Blaine said.
"I will call her when you start performing. Now get your hot booty up there and make me proud. I love you honey.", Kurt said.
"I love you too, Kurtie.", Blaine said as he walked out of the bathroom.
