The Night and Days of Kurt: The Continuation

Day #49: Part 2

SAM

"Noah wait." Sam yells out as he rounds the corner and enters the stairway. "Please."

Noah's already halfway up the stairs, but he stops. Sam takes the opportunity and slowly walks up the stairs.

"Please Noah. Don't run away." Sam pleads.

"Then what am I supposed to do?" Noah hisses as he turns around, glaring at his boyfriend.

"You're supposed to talk to me." Sam answers. "And don't run away when things are getting to hard."

Noah sighs and looks down at his feet, all signs of anger disappearing. "I . . . I don't know what to do. Hell . . . I don't even know if we're still together."

"Of course we are." Sam says immediately as he walks up the last few steps to stand in front of his boyfriend. "Kurt's just . . . a little stressed."

"Well so am I." Noahsnaps.

Sam sighs before reaching up and cupping Noah's face. "We just want to know what's going on." Sam says in a gentle tone. "We want to help."

Noah reaches up and grabs Sam's hand and holds it closer to his face. "Do you . . . do you trust me?" Noah's weak voice asks.

"Of course I do." Sam doesn't hesitate to say. "I love you."

"That's not the same." Noah shakes his head. "I know that Kurt loves me too, but . . . he doesn't trust me."

"He does." Sam insists. "We're just trying to figure things out with you. You've been . . . missing." Sam struggles to think of the world. "When you're here . . . it seems like your mind is occupied with doing something else."

Noah leans forward and leans his forehead against Sam's. "I . . . am not, or ever will . . . cheat on you." Noah closes his eyes. "Just . . . please believe me."

"I do." Sam says softly. "I do."

"Then know that I'm not doing anything that will compromise our relationship." Noah says just as soft. "I just need to do a few things on my own for a bit."

Sam gulps. "Then tell Kurt that. Don't get angry, don't lash out . . . just tell him. Show him that you guys love each other and he shouldn't be afraid."

"Why is he afraid?" Noah asks, his voice stronger.

Sam sighs. "He has insecurities. They're harmless, but still there. And it doesn't help with that stalker on the loose."

Noah's eyes narrow. "Has something else happened?"

KURT

Kurt feels a hand on his shoulder. He looks up from his arms into the kind of eyes of Tina.

"Are you okay Kurt?" Tina asks as she kneels down by Kurt.

Kurt shakes his head and more tears fall. "No." His voice is full of tears.

Tina takes his hand. "Come on. Let's get you cleaned up."

Kurt uses her help to pull his lifeless body up.

We're done. Broken up. God I'm so stupid. Why couldn't I just ignore everything?

"What happened?" Tina asks as she leads Kurt into the girls bathroom.

"I-"

"Kurt." Santana voice echoes through the room as she steps out of a stall with Brittany. Santana is at his side in a heartbeat, her hands on either side of his face. "What happened?" She looks to Tina when Kurt doesn't answer straight away. "What happened to him?"

"I don't know." Tina answers softly as she pulls a quiet Kurt closer to herself. "I just found him sitting on the floor by the lockers."

Santana nods before she takes Kurt's hand. "Come on." She says gently. "Lets clean your face up."

Kurt nods as he finally moves his eyes to meet her. She nods in understanding of his silence before pulling him out of Tina's hold and over to the sinks. Brittany pulls out the slushie chair and Kurt takes a seat.

Maybe she can tell me what to do.

"San . . . Santana." Kurt's voice is already hoarse from the short amount of time he was crying.

"You don't have to talk if you don't want to." Santana says as she wets some paper towels.

"I need to." Kurt says more firmly.

"Whenever you're ready." Santana simply says as she starts to run the wet towels across his cheeks.

Kurt lets out a shaky breath. "I . . . I umm . . . I accused Noah. Of cheating." He mutters.

His voice echoes through the room and all three girls have the same reaction. They gasp and their eyes dart towards each other.

Kurt continues on. "He wouldn't tell me or Sam what he's been doing. And he's been missing all of our dates. And then we found out that he was lying about babysitting and-"

"Slow down Kurt." Santana cuts him off from his rant. "Just breathe."

Kurt does as she says and lets out a shaky breath. "Okay. I . . . what do I do Santana?"

"Well . . . " Santana moves around and kneels in front of him. "Do you know for sure that he's cheating on you?"

"No . . . but-"

"Kurt." Santana takes his hand. "If Puck has a secret that he's keeping from you and Sam, it's for a good reason. He loves you and wouldn't do anything to mess that up. You know that, right?"

Kurt hesitates before nodding. "I do. And I love him to, but . . . we're . . . I'm not sure if we're still together. He took off after I yelled at him. Sam's with him." Kurt adds quietly.

"Then you need to talk to him." Santana says firmly as she stands up. "Talk to him and make this right. I have too much investment in this relationship for you to screw it up because you're afraid."

Kurt chuckles and lets himself be pulled up. "I'm not afraid."

"You are. That's why you lash out." Santana doesn't beat around the bush. "It's the same when you and I were dating." Kurt blushes at the memory. "To you, it was easier than choosing one of them. Hell, our whole dating phase was about you being afraid."

Kurt looks down, but Tina's hand reaches out and tilts his head back up. "She's right Kurt. You shouldn't give up on people who love you."

Kurt smiles and looks at each of the girls. "I love you all." He smiles as he wraps his arms around Santana and Tina.

Brittany steps forward and the four stand their together, one hug somehow making them stronger.

I know this chapter is a bit short, but it's somewhat wrapping up this little fight. It's not gone, but it's being fixed. So let me know what you think with a nice long review. And just a heads up, there will be a Puckurt only chapter coming up soon. I figured the boys need some time alone. :)
