AN: Inspired by lines from "Say You'll Be Mine" by Steps. This would be an addition to "Original Song". Takes place between the "Blackbird performance" and Blaine suggestion the duet to the Warblers. Wes just seems to know where Blaine is going with his suggestion before Blaine names Kurt as his duet partner so this is my take why.

"I know Geometry isn't your best subject but even you would do better if the book wasn't upside down."

"What?" I asked, coming out of a daze, as Wes reached down and turned my math book around.

Wes wore an amused smile as he sat down next to me. "You've been kind of out of it today. Please tell me you're not as upset over the canary-"

"Pavarotti," I corrected him without thinking. Not that it mattered to me but Kurt would want the proper name to be used.

"Pavoratti's," Wess corrected, with a slight nod of his head, "death as Kurt is. I mean I get that losing a pet is upsetting but it was just a canary."

"It's not the canary that's got me in a daze," I assure him.

"Then what is it?"

"I'm in love."

"This isn't going to result in another serenade at the Gap is it. Because, while you're my friend, and I'd do anything for you, I've got to tell you that I don't care to repeat that experience quite so soon."

I was never going to live that fiasco down.

"No. No serenades at the Gap this time."

"Good. So who's the lucky guy this time. Do I know him?"

I look at Wes who seems genuinely interested. "Yes," I admit. The smile that comes to Wes' face at that admission tells me that he thinks he knows who I'm talking about, and perhaps he does. That I know of there is only one other gay guy that we both know.

"And does this individual feel the same way?"

"Yes, or well he did at one point."

"Then I think you need to tell him how you feel before you start flunking classes because you're holding books upside down."

"How?"

"Start by spending more time with him and the right moment to tell him will present itself."

It seemed so simple when Wes said it. Still, I wonder what Kurt would say now if I tell him that I've woken up and realized how much I truly did care for him. Was he even still interested in me that way.

Wes got to his feet. "Or you can try a serenade again. I think your target would be a bit more receptive this time," Wes added, giving my shoulder a playful punch before walking away.
