A/N: Hey guys. Well I believe there will be one more chapter left to the end of this story. I don't think I say this enough but Thank you all for your support and reviews. Also for following this story. I appreciate it so much and love you all.

Disclaimer: I do not own Glee. There goes that statement again.

"Well, Well, Well. If it isn't good old Mr. Anderson. I believe the last time I saw you I told you to get your act together and not come back to my courtroom? Well by the looks of it, you got one part right and it isn't the latter." Judge Macintosh said. He really thought Blaine had changed for the better. He hadn't seen the boy in his courtroom for over 9 months and he believed Blaine really had figured out the direction his life should be headed. Guess he was wrong. He was disappointed, yes, but he couldn't jump to conclusions yet. However, knowing Blaine, he probably wouldn't even defend himself.

"Mr. Karofsky, here, claims that you assaulted him for no reason."

Blaine glared at Karofsky and turned back to the judge because the man was still talking.

"Safe to say, I'm not surprised seeing that it is the same reason you were here the last two times. Are you even going to try to defend yourself this time?" Judge asked with a little hope in his voice. Upon hearing the hope, Blaine tried to say what happened.

"I-I um I di- No." Blaine ended up stuttering.

"Well then.." the judge said, disappointed.

"Judge Macintosh, if I may?" a voice rose from the pew behind Blaine.

"And you are?"

"Kurt Hummel sir. I want to testify for Mr. Anderson here seeing that it was me he was trying to defend before he lost control."

"So you were there when it happened?"

"Yes sir. I am an eye-witness."

"Then please come to the witness stand and tell us your story."

Kurt walked past Blaine without making eye contact but he could feel the nervousness wafting from the boy. After what happened in the locker, Blaine finally asked Kurt to be his boyfriend. Kurt was shocked to say the least but he knew he developed feeling for Blaine since the first day he saw him and couldn't imagine anyone else being his first boyfriend, so he agreed. They have been together a little over 3 weeks now and this court trial was either going to make or break their new relationship. When Kurt got to the stand he started his story of how Karofsky had bullied him since the first day of high school and no one seemed to care. Not even the teachers. He talked about what Blaine had said Karofsky did to him and how Blaine didn't fight back because of what the judge had said. Kurt also talked about what happened in the locker room. He made sure to leave out the kiss for two reasons: one, only Blaine knew about that and two, he didn't believe in outing people. If they wanted to come out of the closet, they would do it by themselves.

After his story, the judge was about to speak but was interrupted by a hand raised.

"Ah. Mr. Thompson. You're here too? and I see you brought along the gang. What can I do for you sir?" The judge asked curiously.

"Um. Hey Judge, I think it's about time I told you what really happened the first night Blaine, Nick and myself got arrested. It will help this case tremendously and maybe you will recognize the pattern." Jeff spoke up.

"Mr. Hummel you may step down. Mr. Thompson approach the witness stand, please."

"Jeff. Jeff what are you doing? You don't have to do this." Blaine whispered while Jeff was walking past him. Jeff simply ignored him and sat in the witness-box. When he was sworn in, he told the courtroom everything that happened that night and how Blaine had protected his friends but his anger got the better of him. After he was done, David raised his hand as well.

"Mr. Sawyer, you have something to add as well?" Blaine was shocked at all his friends coming to his aid. He was very grateful and was on the verge of crying but he kept his cool.

"Yes judge. And like Jeff said, it might help you figure out the pattern. It's about the second time Blaine got arrested." David said approaching the witness-box. David told the judge everything that Blaine had told them that night. He told them how Blaine was protecting himself and how his anger got the better of him again. After all Blaine's friends spoke up, the judge realized the pattern.

"It seems to me that when you get into fights, you loose control of your rage. Not only that, you only get into fights when you are protecting your friends. Why didn't you just tell me what happened during those first arrests Mr. Anderson?" the judge asked. He couldn't believe that Blaine had a very good reason why he beat up people and he never spoke up about it.

"I- I guess I felt like I deserved the harsh punishment." Blaine finally spoke up. The judge, Kurt, and his friends were shocked.

"What are you talking about young Burt Reynolds" Santana asked from her spot next to Kurt. She had heard all the stories from Kurt and Blaine's friends in the courtroom and she couldn't believe what she was hearing.

"Quiet in the courtroom please? Go on Mr. Anderson." the judge said

"I felt like if I was locked away, so would my anger. I can't control it. I don't know when to stop. I figured that no one deserved to be beaten that badly even if they tried bullying me or- or my friends." Blaine finished off, his voice very shaky with emotions.

"Mr. Anderson that is not your fault. Any ways, in light of this new evidence I say that you are innocent and all charges are dropped." The judge said

"Wait! What? You can't just let him go! He-he did this to me!" David Karofsky shouted motioning to his arm in a cast.

"Mr. Karofsky please approach the bench." When Karofsky got close to him, the judge lowered his voice and put his face into a nasty scowl and growled at Karofsky "With everything that Mr. Hummel just told me today, you are lucky he did not press charges because I would have sent your smug, coward ass to jail right away. Trust me you do not want to go where I sent Blaine. You know why? Blaine owned that place, along with his friends. If word got around that you tried to get him arrested again, you would not make it out alive. Now I don't ever, and I repeat, I don't ever want to see your face in my courtroom again. I suggest you change that attitude or whatever hatred you have towards others and become a freaking model citizen because if you don't, so help me God, I will personally have your ass handed to you. Do I make myself clear, Mr. Karofsky?"

David nodded his head and was given the okay to go back to the his stand.

"So. As I was saying," the judge said with his voice returning to normal and him addressing the courtroom, "You are innocent Mr. Anderson. Case dismissed. You are free to go. However, I suggest you take some anger management classes to help with your 'little' problem." he said with a bang of his gavel. Everyone who was in the courtroom gave a loud triumphant shout and they were all happy and hugging each other.

"Oh Blaine? Congrats on getting accepted into NYU. I am so proud of you and I knew you could do it." Judge Macintosh said with pride for the young man. He really was proud of Blaine. The boy had grown to be a man with a good path ahead of his life. At this statement, the tears started to fall freely on Blaine's face.

"Thank you Judge. Thank you so much. You have no idea what that means to me." It was true. He felt like the Judge had always had his back in everything. He tried his best to get Blaine out of trouble and always made sure he got treated fairly. He was always supportive and Blaine and always give him hope that not everyone in the world was out to get him. In a way, Judge Macintosh was like the father Blaine had always wanted.

Once outside the court, a full party began. Everyone was hugging Blaine all over and he felt happy. He felt complete. He had his friends, his life was in order, and best of all a boyfriend that he couldn't imagine himself without. He pulled Kurt into his arms and planted a deep kiss on his lips. When they broke apart, he whispered against his lips, "Thank you Kurt. For saving me."
