"Has anyone seen Oliver?" Asked Mr Shue. It was ten minutes in and Oliver still hadn't shown up. He wasn't the only one worried.
"I'm not sure, sir." Lily said, looking around the classroom. "He told us he was going to the bathroom, but hasn't come back."
"Should we look for him? I'm sure he's in trouble." Stood up Kurt. Mr Shue was about to say something but a knock on the door silenced him.
Oliver stared at the class with a glazed over look in his eyes. His shirt was torn at the sleeve and spots of blood covered it. His hair was wet, one side with blood. Oliver's lip and cheek were red and bruised and his knuckles were raw. He limped over to sit next to Kurt and breathed a sigh of relief.
"Oh my god. Oliver what happened?" Mr Shue practically screamed as he rushed over to Oliver. He held up his hand.
"Sir", Oliver said, his voice thick but also hoarse. "I have dealt with worse." He unzipped his backpack and pulled out a first aid kit. "I'll be fine."
"No way! You are going to a hospital."
Oliver actually laughed. "Yeah right. Now, Mr Shue I don't want to be rude, but leave me to tend to myself." After five minutes of arguing, Mr Shue finally let Oliver have his way.
"What the hell Oliver, what happened?" Asked Finn, who couldn't help but stare.
"I slipped in the bathroom."
"Bullshit." Came straight from Puck.
Oliver nodded. "That is why I am also covered in water. I hit the sink and blackened out. That is all." Oliver stole a quick glance at Lily, who sat arms folded and a growl on her face.
"Oliver, are you telling the truth?" Kurt asked tenderly.
"Yes, I am." Oliver forced a smile and kissed Kurt's lips. Several boys wolf whistled.
"Nice work Kurt." Finn said, hitting Oliver on the back who winced instantly.
"About time I reckon." Winked Mercedes.
"Guys, Oliver looks like he just went through a landmine and you clapping on the fact he has a boyfriend?" Mr Shue stared. "Honestly, what is more important?"
"My boyfriend, obviously." Oliver pulled a straight face and cuddled Kurt. He blushed and grabbed Oliver's hand.
"Fine. I want you the cover those." Mr Shue said, pointing at Oliver. "I can't have you walking around open wounded." Oliver nodded and opened the kit. The rest of lesson tried to go on normally, but despite Mr Shue efforts, everyone was captivated by Oliver handiwork with first aid.
He skilfully put alcohol on the wounds, cleaning them before applying the bandages and Band-Aids. After ten minutes, he walked up to the whiteboard and picked up a stick used for pointing. He tapped along the stick until he chewed his lip. He snapped it in half no problem. He put one of them back and sat back down. Oliver rested the stick against his arm and wrapping more bandages. He winced and he dabbed alcohol on his head and pressed a cotton pad against it. He then wrapped a huge cloth around it.
"You look at a mummy." Kurt giggled.
"Anyway, without further ado, us girls had decided to the assignment together, as there is only one song to explain us as the superior sex." Rachel said, wearing the same thing as Lily who stood next to her. She smiled.
"Hit it!" She yelled and raised her hand. Cyndi Lauper's "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun" belted. Rachel raised her hands and sung the verse while the others in Glee stood up from their seats and danced with Lily out the front. There was plenty of hair whipping.
"I come home in the morning light,
My mother says "When you gonna live your life right?"
Oh mother dear,
We're not the fortunate ones,
And girls, they wanna have fu-un.
Oh girls, just wanna have fun."
Lily sang the second one.
"The phone rings in the middle of the night,
My father yells "What you gonna do with your life?"
Oh, daddy dear, you know you're still number one,"
Lily stood next to Mr. Shue and made a pleading pose, causing the club to laugh.
"But girls, they wanna have fu-un,
Oh girls, just wanna have
That's all they really want...
Some fun..."
"When the working day is done,
Oh girls, they wanna have fu-un,
Oh girls, just wanna have fun...
Girls, they want wanna have fun.
Girls, wanna have."
Rachel and Lily kept taking turns in song until Tina sung the chorus. They continued dancing around the boys until the last quarter of the song.
"They just wanna...
They just wanna,
They just wanna have fun...
Girls just wanna have fu-un.
They just wanna,
They just wanna...
When the working day is done..."
The song faded and the girls took a bow. Lily smiled and waved at Oliver. For the first real time that day, he smiled and clapping his hands.
