I won't be made a fool of

Once the car pulled up the driveway Jeff hopped out the car shouting that he baggsed the bathroom and shifted foot to foot at the door waiting for Angela to catch up. Blaine quickly followed Angela as Kurt took his time getting out of the car and stretching.

"Blaine?" A small voice was heard from the end of the driveway. Angela and Jeff had already disappeared into the house not noticing the frail looking woman standing at the edge of the drive. Blaine whipped around and looked at the woman.

"Mum? What are you doing here?" Blaine asked walking over to her. Kurt watched on leaning against the car and lighting up a cigarette making sure to blow the smoke away from the direction Blaine and his mother were standing.

"You've got to come home now, your dad noticed your absence this morning so I just said you were over here studying. He is suspicious that you have been here for so long. Why do you never think of us when you go gallivanting off places? Now come on," The woman said tightly wrapping her coat around herself.

Blaine turned to Kurt and smiled before giving him a small wave.

"Tell Angela thanks and tell Jeff I'll see him tomorrow, bye Kurt," Blaine said before following his mum down the drive and walking off down the street.

"See ya later shorty," Kurt mumbled before tossing his cigarette on the ground and walking inside.

Kurt walked in to find Angela in the kitchen with three mugs of hot chocolate on the counter. She looked up at him and smiled. She frowned when Kurt closed the door behind him.

"Where is Blaine?" She asked handing him his cup. Kurt walked over to the couch as he talked.

"His mum came and took him home, he told me to say thanks to you," Kurt said taking a sip of his hot chocolate trying to get accustomed to drinking with his piercing.

"Oh I see," Angela said thoughtfully taking a sip of her drink.

"What's his deal anyway? He is over here so much and then his mum comes over and acts all weird about it." Kurt asked leaning back on the couch.

"It's not my story to tell I'm afraid, that has to be something Blaine is willing to tell you Kurt," Angela replied cradling her cup. She looked up at Kurt.

"Do you need to do any daily maintenance on that piercing? Cleaning it with anything particular, I'm going shopping tomorrow so let me know," Angela said smiling despite her obvious upset about Kurt getting the piercing in the first place.

"I'll keep that in mind," Kurt said avoiding Angela's gaze.

"Well I'm off to bed, I'll wake you up before I leave, remember not to be late, from what I heard you did very good on your first day, keep it up kiddo. Oh and when you get up, don't try to talk to Jeff, he is dead in the morning so he might not remember who you are. Goodnight sweet heart," with that Angela got up and kissed Kurt's forehead before walking off to bed.

Kurt sat there for a while stunned at Angela actions. Was he not doing his best to ward her off and keep her away. But it seemed harder around Angela. She had this authority but also this great deal of love that was starting to break through his armour.

He still had to keep her and everyone else at a distance. He had a few secrets he would rather not stain anyone else's minds with.

Kurt got woken up the next morning with Angela knocking and coming in to place a cup of tea by his bedside. She then left with a goodbye echoing up the stairs and a shout for Jeff to not fall back asleep. Kurt got up and walked down stairs with his cup. He grabbed and bowl and got out some cereal and milk. He sat down at the counter and started to eat. Moments later Jeff emerged rubbing his face and mumbling incoherent words under his breathe. His hair was sticking up in all directions and he was wearing pin striped pyjamas.

Kurt watched as Jeff poured some cereal and milk before putting the cereal box in the fridge and the milk in the cupboard.

"Blondie you put them the wrong way around," Kurt said placing his bowl in the sink

"What do you want rustler! You come to face the snake!" Jeff shouted while stuffing his mouth with cereal and death glaring Kurt. Kurt stood there shocked for a minute wondering who the hell Jeff thought Kurt was. A rustler? And Jeff was the snake? Wow this kid was not a morning person. Kurt grabbed the cereal in the fridge and swapped in with the milk.

"See, you strange kid," Kurt said shaking his head.

"The Sheriff will hear of this rustler! You won't be robbing any more banks on my watch," Jeff said jabbing his spoon into his bowl and getting a bit of milk on his chin. Kurt walked away shaking his head with a small smile on his lips and went upstairs to get ready for work .
