A/N: Um…wow, guys. I kind of feel like a bitch for not thanking you! I was browsing Puck and Kurt fanfictions and I came across mine and I was like "look there's mine!" and I saw I had over fifty and flipped out. As thanks, I'll be using "You'll Be in My Heart" by Phil Collins, a request from a reviewer. And this is a super-long chapter WHILE I have an ear infection and strep throat. So yeah, here it is.
A/N2: Um…I just got on the glee wikia and there was a picture of Rachel on a train and all of them waving goodbye. INCLUDING Kurt. BUT they said Chris was on a plane to NYC. Damn them. Any thoughts?
A/N3 (yeah, getting kind of long here): I just realized that I never had Karofsky join glee. So, at the end I'm writing deleted scenes. So, I'm just going to add him in during this chapter.
Mended Hearts and Butterscotch Pie
Chapter Twenty
"We just feel it would be best for Jeff to…see a therapist and maybe get on some medication," the doctor said, his voice echoing in Jeff's memory from the previous day at his appointment.
Sebastian and his aunt Sue made an appointment and they went straight there after school, the doctor had taken Jeff back first by himself and then called Sebastian and Sue in.
He couldn't believe those people! They thought he was depressed! He wasn't depressed! Just…tired a lot. That didn't mean he was depressed! Not even that time Sue found him crying.
Anyways, he had started his new medication yesterday, starting out on a children's dose for medical reasons. It didn't give him any side-effects so he was surprisingly okay. He actually gave his classes a little bit of attention today. Usually he would draw or make finger motions so it look like he was pinching the teacher's head.
Jeff took his regular seat in glee club, he was early because Sue had beef with his teacher or something and she always let Jeff do whatever he wanted; like leaving early for example.
"Hey, Jeff," Mr. Schuester greeted as he walked into the room, "Ever pick out that McFly song you wanted to do?"
Jeff shrugged, "It won't matter either way. I won't get to sing. You'll give the solo to Rachel, give the duet to Finn and Rachel, have Mercedes belt out the high note, and maybe give Quinn a solo. Kurt, Sam, Blaine, and I never get solos, so we're used to it at this point, Mr. Schuester."
Mr. Schue looked at him in shock, "Jeff-"
"Sorry, must be a side-effect of my new meds," Jeff muttered out the lie, putting in his headphones and staring at the ceiling, leaning his head back.
He felt someone poke his stomach right where he was ticklish and let out a yelp, making his headphones fall out and look at who the culprit was.
Jeff smiled, "Hey, Seb."
Sebastian smiled, sitting down beside him, "Everything okay today?"
Jeff nodded, picking at his nails as the others -including Sue, who was helping with Nationals to get money for the Cheerios- came in and sat down, taking their usual seats.
"Before we start," Sam smiled, walking in the room with his hand linked to Blaine's, "We'd like to sing-"
"Oh my gosh! Sam, what happened?" Rachel asked.
"What?" Sam asked, confused.
"You have a bruise on your face! And you're limping!" Finn said.
Sam sighed, "It's been taken care of. As I was saying, Blaine and I have a song we'd like to nominate for Nationals."
"Considering this is my last chance for a solo-" Rachel began.
Mr. Schuester shook his head, "Rachel, let them sing."
Sam smiled.
Blaine turned to the band, "As we've rehearsed?"
Sam and Blaine took turns singing the lines back and forth, Blaine going first.
"Come stop your crying, it will be alright. Just take my hand and hold it tight. I will protect you from all around you. I will be here, don't you cry."
Sam smiled, taking the next line and almost laughing when Blaine shot him a glare about the height part of the song, "For one so small, you seem so strong. My arms will hold you keep you safe and warm. This bond between us, cant be broken. I will be here, don't you cry."
They started singing together, smiling at eachother, "'Cause you'll be in my heart. Yes, you'll be in my heart from this day on. Now and forever more. You'll be in my heart, no matter what they say. You'll be here in my heart, always."
Blaine grabbed Sam's hand, smiling and singing, "Why cant they understand the way we feel? They just don trust what they can't explain. I know were different but deep inside us, we're not that different at all."
They sang the chorus together, "Oh you'll be in my heart, yes you'll be in my heart from this day on,now and forever more. Don't listen to them 'cause what do they know. We'll need each other to have to hold. They'll see in time, I know, when destiny calls you, you must be strong. 'Cause I may not be with you, but you got to hold on. They'll see in time, I know well show them together."
'Cause you'll be in my heart, believe you'll be in my heart. From this day on now and forever more. Oh, you'll be in my heart, no matter what they say. You will be in my heart, always. Yes, I'll be with you, 'cause I'll be there for you always. Just look over your shoulder, just look over your shoulder, turn around,and look over your shoulder 'cause I'll be there, always...
"For one so small, you seem so strong. My arms will hold you, keep you safe and warm. This bond between us, can't be broken. I will be here, don't you cry," Sam sang, laughing quietly when he said the word "small".
"'Cause you'll be in my heart, yes you'll be in my heart. From this day on, now and forever more you'll be in my heart. No matter what they say you'll be here in my heart, always."
"That was great, guys!" Mr. Schuester clapped with the others, "But its not-"
"But it's not Nationals material, right?" Sam muttered, "It's alright, we get it."
"No, actually," Blaine said, "I don't get it!" he got pissed off at Mr. Schuester at this point. Why didn't he ever let anyone other than Finn, Rachel, Quinn, or Mercedes had a solo? It was ridiculous! Even though it was like that in the Warblers...he had turned a new leaf at McKinley and frankly he was a little annoyed at the fact that there was so much talent and it was all wasted!
"Yeah," Karofsky piped up, all eyes turning to the newest member of New Directions, "Every time you guys ever performed, they were up front."
"Blaine, let's just sit down," Sam mumbled, putting a hand on his arm.
"No!" Blaine said quickly, "I'm okay with not getting a solo but Sam is really good, Mr. Schuester! So are Tina, Mike, Kurt, Puck, Jeff, Sebastian, Brittany, Artie, Rory, and Santana! But no, you waste all of the opportunity on Rachel, Finn, Quinn, and Mercedes! Face it, they've been your favorites since the beginning!" he was really pissed at this point, completely forgetting about what his anger management classes had taught him at this point, "Sam, we're leaving."
"What?" Rachel demanded, "We won't have enough people for Nationals!"
"Until things change," Blaine shrugged, "I guess you won't be competing," he grabbed Sam's hand and drug him out of the room.
Jeff smirked, "See you guys," he got up, "I think I'll follow this protest!" he walked out of the room, ignoring Sue's glare on him.
"I'm...obligated to follow him," Sebastian got up, "And I really want to," he walked out as well.
Rory left silently, obviously seeing which group he should follow.
"Rory, c'mon," Finn groaned.
Kurt looked at Puck and the mohawked boy smiled, grabbing his hand and they walked out of the room hand-in-hand.
Dave got up and left too.
Santana sighed, "Well it looks like I'm being a part of this big, rainbow colored protest," she grabbed Brittany's hand and walked out.
Tina sighed, "Blaine had a point, Mr. Schue," she walked out with Mike.
That left Rachel, Finn, Quinn, Mercedes, Joe, Artie, and Sugar.
"Well, Schuester," Sue said, "What are you going to do now?"
"You're going to have to convince Jeff. Guys, we're going to convince the others," Mr. Schue said and they started devising a plan.
"W-We aren't really quitting, are we?" Jeff asked Blaine and Sam.
"If that's what it takes to get the point across, yeah," Blaine said, dragging Sam down the hallway behind him.
"B-But I've never been to Nationals," Jeff said.
"It's just more people and famous judges," Kurt shrugged, "I heard it was Lindsey Lohan this year."
"Wasn't she in rehab?" Sebastian asked.
Kurt shrugged, "I think she's out again..."
"Whatever," Santana said, "I'd like to see them try to even get in with how many members they have."
Rory nodded, "I feel bad for Finn Hudson though, he was a good friend."
"Yeah, but I'm your best friend," Sam high-fived him.
"I cannot believe we just quit," Tina laughed quietly.
"He'll take us back," Mike said, "They'll be begging for us to come back in a week. We have to leave for Chicago then, right?"
Kurt nodded, holding Puck's hand and smiling.
"So, since we're not in glee club and schools out...I'm going to the mall. C'mon, Mike!" Tina said and drug the poor senior off.
"I'm going to go to the gym," Dave waved at them, walking off.
"Me and Britt are going to the carnival in Lima Heights," Santana said, "Hopefully the ferris wheel doesn't break," they left at that.
"Wanna come to my house? My mom is home but she just loves you," Sebastian smiled down at Jeff.
"Sure," Jeff blushed.
Sebastian smiled, wrapping an arm around his waist, "See you guys."
Kurt watched them go, smiling softly, "They're so cute together."
"Yeah," Sam agreed.
"Well, we're probably going to go shopping too," Blaine said, "I've realized that Sam doesn't have that many clothes."
"Hey, I like Kurt's Earth Day jacket," they heard Sam complain as he left with Blaine.
Rory simply waved at them, probably going to go back to the Pierce's house for the day. He said that he really liked living there because Brittany's dad would play video games with him. From what they'd heard, Rory's home-life in Ireland wasn't too great after his brother, Semus, moved out.
"So, that leaves you and me," Kurt smiled.
"Actually, we have somewhere to be," Puck smirked.
Kurt raised an eyebrow.
Puck smiled, "We're going to go to your place and start planning the wedding."
Kurt squeaked happily, hugging him happily, then he sighed, "Jeff will be pissed he's not part of this."
Puck shrugged, "Blondie will live. It's going to take more than one day to plan. He'll come in handy when we're filling out invitations."
"So...the theme is going to be light blue and dark blue. I don't want one of those one's where they pick a park of the world they want to base it off of or one of those ones where they're all churchy," Kurt shuddered.
"Alright, that's out of the way," Puck smiled as they sat on the floor in Kurt's living room, papers and wedding magazines -from under Kurt's bed- scattered everywhere, "Now comes the worst part; the guest list."
Kurt groaned.
"So, I got a huge family," Puck explained.
"So do it," Kurt shrugged and then froze, "Wait...I don't have to wear one of those little hats do I? Because Noah Puckerman, I swear if you even think for a second-"
"Relax," Puck laughed, "We aren't wearing them," he rolled his eyes.
"Good," Kurt breathed.
Puck laughed, "You're going to be flustered the whole time, huh?"
"Yes," Kurt said simply, "Alright," he handed Puck a yellow pad of paper.
"What's this for?" Puck asked.
"Start writing," Kurt said, "I'm starting on my family now. I'll write the friends so you have less work."
Kurt started his list.
Dad
Carole
Finn Hudson
Rachel Berry
Hiram Berry
Leroy Berry
"Wait, wait, wait!" Puck said, "We're inviting her family too?"
"My family is friends with her family. In turn, we're stuck doing it. If I don't know their family, I'm not inviting them," Kurt shrugged, "Simple as that," and he started writing again.
Tina Cohen-Chang
Melinda Cohen-Chang
Andrew Cohen-Chang
Mike Chang
Artie Abrams
Rory Flannagan
Brittany S. Pierce
Santana Lopez
Jeff Sterling (Best Man)

"Heh, that's ironic," Puck chuckled, "You're inviting your ex-boyfriend."
"He's my friend," Kurt sighed, "Eyes on your own paper, Puckerman."
Quinn Fabray
Mercedes Jones
Will Schuester
Emma Pillsbury
Sugar Motta
Joe Hart
Kurt paused for a second and bit his lip.
Dave Karofsky
Puck made a noise.
"What?" Kurt sighed, "He joined glee club, he's nice now, Noah."
"But he liked you," Puck grumbled.
"So did Blaine," Kurt countered.
"But he has a boyfriend, I can trust him," Puck mumbled.
Kurt sighed, "Just trust me on this one," and continued to write.
Aunt Mildred
Uncle Andy
Aunt Delia
Uncle Daniel
Daniel Hummel Jr.
DJ Hummel
Ned Hummel
Jenna Hummel
April Rhodes
Holly Holiday
"There," Kurt smiled, "That's my list."
"Why the last two?" Puck asked.
"Well, Holly loved me in class and April taught me the joys of mussel magazines," Kurt smirked, "Besides, I doubt either of them will come. Holly got a job and settled down a bit and April is on Broadway with her own show about her life."
"How's the going for her?" Puck chuckled.
"Down the tubes," Kurt laughed, looking at Puck's list, "Why is there a blank line between your mom and your sister?"
"Should I invite my dad?" Puck whispered.
Kurt sighed, "Noah, if that would make you uncomfortable-"
"I mean, I doubt he would come...but isn't it polite to at least invite him?" Puck asked.
Kurt nodded, "But if you don't want to, you don't have to."
Puck sighed, writing it in, "There, that's my list."

Dad
Sarah Puckerman
Aunt Lisa
Uncle John
Aunt Blythe
Uncle Larry

Dylan Puckerman
Misha Puckerman
Michael Puckerman
Ethan Puckerman

Jelina Puckerman
Erica Puckerman
Betsy Puckerman
"Wow," Kurt laughed, "Your mom had all brothers based on all the last names of your cousins. My dad had all brothers too," he smiled, "You have a lot of cousins."
"Yeah," Puck laughed, "I guess baby-making was sort of a thing," he snickered.
Kurt rolled his eyes, "Good thing we don't have to worry about getting pregnant."
"I...do you ever want to adopt a kid?" Puck asked curiously.
Kurt looked at his feet. They never talked about this before. Kurt would be embarrassed if Puck didn't share his opinion. He really, really hoped he did.
"Yes," Kurt whispered.
Puck smiled, "Good. We'll make great dads."
"You really want kids?" Kurt asked.
Puck laughed, "Of course."
Kurt smiled and leaned over all the wedding magazines, kissing him.
Puck chuckled quietly, kissing him again, deepening it and making Kurt lay back, despite messing up all the papers, "We should move this to a more comfortable place."
Kurt laughed, "But I don't want to move. I'm too lazy right now."
"Alright then," Puck smirked, getting up and picking his light boyfriend up, throwing him over his shoulder and walking upstairs.
"Ugh, I cannot believe you just did that," Kurt sighed as he walked up the steps.
"I can't believe you're this easy to carry," Puck snorted, "What do you eat for breakfast? Nothing?"
"Splenda," Kurt said simply.
Puck sighed as they got to Kurt's room and there was a bunch of stuff on his bed.
"Sorry, organizing session," Kurt sighed.
Puck put him down and quickly put the stuff on the floor.
"Wait, wait, wait!" Kurt said when Puck went to pick up a picture frame with a locket hanging off of it, "Don't touch that one," he whispered, grabbing the frame quickly and setting it down on his dresser.
I'll ask about that one later, Puck thought as he cleared the rest of the stuff of, "Kurt, it's almost summer, how many covers do you need?"
"I only have five," Kurt snorted.
Puck rolled his eyes, picking Kurt up again and throwing him on the bed and got on top of him, kissing him as soon as he was situated.
Kurt smiled, wrapping his arms around his neck.
Puck moved to Kurt's pale neck, sucking and nibbling all he wanted, knowing Kurt wouldn't mind if he left marks, it would just give him an excuse to wear a turtle neck.
Kurt let out a gasp when Puck kissed right on the place under his ear that drove him absolutely crazy.
"I know your weak spots," Puck laughed.
"I know your weak spots too, Noah," Kurt said breathlessly.
Puck rolled his eyes, "Yeah, blowjobs."
Kurt rolled his eyes and Puck quickly got the countertenor's shirts and pants off along with his own clothing, leaving them in just their underwear.
Puck ran his hands up and down Kurt's sides as he started to kiss on his shoulders.
Kurt let out a groan, meeting Puck's lips again.
"You're going to be my husband," Puck said between kisses, "And we're going to be together forever."
"Mmm, I love you," Kurt said as they kissed, lying beside each other.
Puck slipped his hand to the back of Kurt's underwear, pulling him closer and kissing him, "Love you too."
"You need to think of a name for that thing," Blaine pointed to the dog that was currently occupying all his boyfriend's attention.
Sam sighed, "His name is Dog."
Blaine snorted, "You have to be kidding me."
"No," Sam said simply, "I could have named him Sparta, though! And every time someone asked who the dog was I could have yelled-"
"Please don't," Blaine groaned.
"THIS IS SPARTA!" Sam yelled.
Blaine groaned, falling back on the bed.
Sam laughed, "You know you love me."
"Hmm...maybe," Blaine smirked.
"Hey!" Sam yelled.
"You know I do," Blaine laughed, "Dog, down there," he pointed to the bottom of the bed.
The dog growled at him.
"Look, he's my Sam, not yours," Blaine said, going to grab Sam's hand and the dog started growling again.
Sam was trying to hide his laughter.
"Listen, you," he pointed to the dog, "That is my boyfriend," he pointed to Sam, "I don't know if dogs have a sexuality or anything, but he's not your boyfriend. He's mine."
"Blaine, I don't think the dog wants to be my boyfriend," Sam sighed.
"You don't speak dog," Blaine countered.
"Neither do you," Sam pointed out.
"COOPER!" Blaine yelled.
Cooper sighed, still on break from acting, "What?"
"I want Sammy-time and the dog won't leave," Blaine sighed, "Watch," he went to touch Sam and the dog growled, trying to bite him.
"Hey, dog, wanna treat?" Cooper asked.
The dog got off of Sam's lap and ran out of the room.
"Ta-da," Cooper said, "I'm amazing," he shut the door and called, "Use protection!"
"Idiot," Blaine commented.
The next day at school, all the kids who had quit glee club were going about their day normally like nothing had happened. They all planned to go get coffee with each other after school while they were supposed to be in glee rehearsal.
Rachel approached Brittany while Santana was in the bathroom, "Hey, Brittany."
"Go away," Brittany said simply.
"Hey, I was hoping that since you didn't get me Christmas gift this year...that you could join glee club and convince Santana?" Rachel tried.
"I forgot to get you a gift?" Brittany's eyes widened, "Okay!"
Rachel smiled happily, walking over to Finn, "That's two down and ten to go."
"Tina, Rachel said that you could sing at Nationals," Quinn said, "She said that since this is our last year, she'd let you have a chance."
Tina narrowed her eyes, "How do I know you're not lying?"
"Because then you could just leave if she said no and went to take over again," Joe said, "And Mike, Mr. Schue said that you and Britt were going to dance again."
Mike sighed, "Tina, let's do it. But we're backing out if you're lying."
Quinn and Joe walked over to Rachel and Finn, "Eight to go."
"Look," Finn sighed, "You just joined glee club. You can't back out already."
Dave leaned on the lockers, "What's in it for me?"
Finn groaned, knowing what he wanted, "Fine, you can have my Call of Duty cheat book."
"I'm in," Dave said simply.
Finn walked over to Rachel, Joe, and Quinn, "Seven."
"Hey, Rory," Sugar walked over to his locker.
Rory smiled, "Hello, Sugar," he told his girlfriend.
"Have you ever thought of getting to second base?" Sugar asked.
The next thing the group knew, Sugar walked over to them, "Six to go."
Finn, Rachel, Quinn, and Joe looked over at Rory who was looking wide-eyed and was blushing.
"Alright, blondie," Sue said, walking over to where Jeff was at his locker.
"Sebast-" Jeff went to yell and Sue put a hand over his mouth.
"You're rejoining glee club," Sue said simply.
Jeff crossed his arms, "Who says I am?"
"Your legal guardian that will make it so you don't graduate," Sue said.
Jeff looked at her for a second, "Sebastian!"
Sebastian walked over quickly, "What's wrong? Are you okay? Are you hurt? What happened?"
"I think we should rejoin glee club," Jeff started explaining fake reasons to Sebastian.
Sue walked over to the little group that was secretly watching from around the corner, "Four to go. Except their going to be the hardest ones to crack. Have fun."
