"Mike?" Kurt exclaimed.

"Yeah." Mike replied, with a half-grin half-smirk look on his face.

"Wait," Kurt said, and then he lowered his volume to a whisper, "you're gay?"

"Not really. I've just hooked up with guys. Bisexual, I guess."

"What the hell is wrong with the world. Last year, I was picked on for being gay, now half of the football team is gay?"

"Seems like it." Mike replied with a chuckle. "Hey, you wanna get out of here? It's getting boring."

Kurt looked around, and then looked back at Mike. "I agree. Where shall we go?"

"Breadstix?"

"God, no. I'm sick of that place."

"Good point." Mike said, and then he looked down. After a few seconds, he looked up again, wearing a bright smile on his face. "I know just what we're gonna do."

He then grabbed Kurt by the hand, and dragged him out of the house, bumping a lot of people and making them stare at the duo. Several whispers issued across the room at the sight of Mike running hand in hand with Kurt.

"Mike's gay? Oh my gosh, look at those two fags. I bet they're gonna have sex in Mike's car or something. Ooh, a new couple is made!"

Kurt and Mike merely ignored the whispers made across the room, and continued running out of the house. When they reached Mike's car, he opened the passenger seat for Kurt, and then ran to the driver's seat. At the exact moment the engine roared, Mike immediately stepped on the pedal and so they were on their way. Kurt didn't bother asking Mike where they were going, knowing that he wouldn't tell him anyway, just like what Finn did to him a while ago.

The trip to wherever Mike was taking Kurt took a really long time. 2 hours, to be exact, but when Kurt saw where Mike had taken him, his jaw dropped in amazement at the beautiful sight he had just seen.

"Welcome to Toledo, Ohio. This," he pointed to the glowing body of water, "is lake Eerie."

"Mike!" Kurt gasped, tears rolling down his face. "This is beautiful!"

Mike merely smiled, but went to the back of his car and opened up his trunk. He took out a picnic basket. "I was preparing this for Tina, but when Finn told me you needed a date, I thought that I'd rather spend all of this with you." Mike explained.

Kurt was confused as to how he should feel about all these events. He didn't know if he should be happy that Mike did all this for me, or should he be guilty that it should be Tina in his place instead? He was brought back into reality when Mike tapped his shoulder and motioned him to sit down on the mat he has prepared on the grass. He nodded and then slowly sat down. Mike followed him. While Kurt was staring at the beautiful lake just a few meters far from him, Mike was bringing out all the food inside the basket. When all the food was out, Mike said, "Well, dig in!"

Mike immediately grabbed one of the Buffalo wings he had brought, while Kurt slowly got some of the salad, and put it in his plate. Just to destroy the silence, Kurt decided to start up a conversation.

"So how are things between you and Tina?", he asked casually.

Mike's eyes widened, but loosened up at almost the same moment. "Great! She's a bit whiny, though. You know what I mean?"

"No, I can't say I do. I've never been in an actual relationship. Well, I'm in one now. I'm not even sure if it's a relationship, cause' it started this morning, and now we're fighting already. I'm not really sure about anything at the moment."

Mike chuckled. "Well, let's change to a brighter subject then."

"Like?"

"I don't know, Glee club?"

"Not that. I've had enough of Glee club for the past few days. Mr. Schue is killing us with all these extra hours of practice! I'm a bit sad about the fact I didn't get a solo, though."

"That's alright, Kurt. Hey, is it true?"

"What's true?"

"That you're planning to move to schools. Tina told me."

"Actually," Kurt sighed, "yes, I am indeed planning to move schools. I've had enough of the bullying..and the drama."

"The drama?"

"The whole Sam-Puck fiasco. I'm sick of it."

"You'll get over it. And hey, I'll always be here." Mike teased, and then the two of them laughed.

Kurt looked at the picnic basket, and then he saw a bottle of champagne just standing there. He then looked at Mike with one eyebrow raised, "Are you planning to open that bottle?"

"Oh yeah! I almost forgot!" Mike exclaimed. He then got a bottle opener from his pocket, grabbed the bottle, and then popped it open. The bottle literally exploded all over the two boys, wetting Kurt's highly prepared and expensive outfit.

"Mike! My outfit got wet!" Kurt shrieked.

"Whoops. Sorry." Mike said with a guilty look on his face. The two of them then laughed.

After that, the two boys drank almost endlessly. They talked about the most random of things while they drank glassful after glassful of champagne. Their laughs echoed across the shimmering lake as time passed very fast. The time came when the two of them drank a little too much and their conversation began being more and more senseless. Until it came to a point, that Mike was blabbering about all his secrets.

"Kurt, you know what?" Mike said in between laughs.

"What?" Kurt replied, giggling.

"I'm glad Mr. Schue made all of us Glee guys do this." Mike said, smiling.

"Do what?" Kurt replied, suddenly serious.

"You know, make you stay in McKinley."

"He what?" Kurt screamed.

"Yup, sure did. I think Puck and Sam are taking it a bit seriously, though. I mean, it's just fake, right?" Mike said, laughing again.

Kurt suddenly began tearing up. He stood up, went closer to Mike, and slapped him right in the face. He then started running, not sure where he's going. He just ran away from the lake, tears rolling down his eyes. After a few minutes of running, he was in the middle of the road, with nothing but trees on either of his sides. He then knelt down on his knees, and slowly crawled to the side of the road. He leaned his back on what of his trees, and then eventually, fell asleep.
