Fubar Chapter 21
Disclaimer: own nothing, if I did my boy Dave would have been in Silly Love songs.
A/N: Sorry it took so long to update, been arguing with myself on this story, originally had more plans for drama, but decided to play nice. I don't want them to end up like a bad soap opera couple. I have also started another Kurtofsky Fic. It takes place six years after graduation, Kurt has made it on Broadway, and Dave is a rookie cop. They are reunited when Kurt has to come home after catching the attention of a psychopathic serial killer ( Enter sexy Dave in a uniform lol). It will feature all the Gleeks and what they are doing. I haven't posted any of it yet, let me know if you all would be interested in a story like that. Hope you enjoy the last few Chapters of this one.

Dave sat staring at the ivory keys. Waiting patiently for Kurt to show up. They had been meeting in the auditorium during lunch for the last few days. The Wedding was coming up and Kurt had been really busy with the final touches, while Dave had started his new job at the Save-A- lot stocking shelves. He felt guilty about leaving Melissa alone most evenings, but bills needed to be paid and Christmas would be there before they new it. He still had not been able to talk to his dad, and he was frustrated. He couldn't help but feel forgotten. He was startled out of his thoughts when he heard Kurt approaching.
DK, " Hey"
KH, " Hey yourself" with a smile he sits beside Dave. " Are you going to play for me?"
DK, shyly, " Do you want me to?
KH, " Yes" and he kisses Dave
Dave runs his hands lightly over the keys, as they break apart. He starts up playing, and Kurt recognizes the tune. It's a Norah Jones song (What am I to you?) Then Dave starts to sing and Kurt is amazed when his man finally lets his voice out. It is the rich tone he has heard before, but now it is full and strong.
What am I to you
Tell me darlin true
To me you are the sea
Vast as you can be
Deep the shade of blue
Dave smiles and winks at Kurt as he keeps singing.
When you're feeling low
To whom else do you go
See I cry if you hurt
I'd give you my last shirt
Because I love you so
If my sky should fall
Would you even call
Opened up my heart
I never want to part
I'm giving you the ball
When I look into your eyes
I can feel butterflies
I love you when your blue
Tell me darlin true
What am I to you?
And he looks at Kurt as he sings, they are wrapped up in each other and Kurt starts singing the song with him, they don't notice the rest of the Glee club walking into the auditorium. As they finish the song, they are shocked to hear applause, and turn towards their audience.
Rachel , " Kurt.. what have you been hiding from us? Did you know all along that Dave had this voice? and you did not get him to join Glee. I for one think that he would be a perfect addition and with his piano skills, well you guys didn't see Vocal Adrenaline last year but Jesse played the piano and it was epic ." noticing that she was rambling she looked up at Dave " Well let me just say you have no choice, welcome to Glee"
DK
The wedding was almost there, and Dave was glad. He was excited about the events but also exhausted. He was juggling sports, Glee, a new job, and taking care of his sister. He finished unloading the last box of carrots from the back room into the produce department when he heard someone approach him from behind. He turned thinking it would be a co worker or customer, and saw it was just a couple of ass hats.
Josh Skidmore smiled " Well look at the fruit stocking the fruit,." His nameless friend just laughed with him.
DK, " Their vegetables you dumb ass."
Josh quit smiling and stepped closer to Dave, " Well that wasn't very nice, how about some customer service princess?" tapping the ( How can I help) pin on Dave's apron
DK, " Get the fuck out of here, before I beat your sorry punk ass from one side of the store to the other" he got up in Skidmore's face glaring, " If you want I'll smile the whole time, you know customer service"
Just then Dave heard his boss , " Dave everything okay?"
DK, " Yeah I think these two, were just leaving" Skidmores hand hovered around his pocket, Dave remembering the jerk liked Knives, " Or maybe you should call security, they may need help out."
Skidmore, " You better keep your guard up Karofsky, never know when I'll be around."
DK, " Fuck off loser."
After they left the store his boss came over, Dave apologized for the disruption and explained to his boss Rick, about what had happened at school.
Rick, " Don't worry Dave, we will alert the security staff and keep an eye on things."
DK, " Thanks I appreciate that." as he got back to work, he was thankful for the job he had, and glad that his Boss was an okay guy.
When his shift ended at midnight he walked out to his truck, feet dragging the ground. He couldn't wait to lay down in his bed , just relax, and dream of Kurt. But as he got closer to his truck he could see something was wrong. In the dim lighting his truck seemed to be almost leaning. Then he realized all four of his tires had been slashed. " Fuck" he said rubbing a hand down his face. he just wanted to sleep, not only was this gonna cost him to replace all four tires, but shit he would have to get his truck towed somewhere. "Fuck, Fuck, fuck" he growled kicking the deflated tires. Then his sleep deprived brain kicked in, hell he was dating Kurt Hummel, they owned a tow truck. He hated to wake him up but , he gave him a call. " Shit" he swore when five minutes later Kurt still hadn't picked up his mobile. Dave didn't want to wake up the whole house, but he knew Kurt would be pissed if he called another tow company, he called the main line. His throat felt like it was closing when a drowsy sounding Burt Hummel answered the phone.
Burt, " This better be good."
DK, " Mr Hummel it's Dave,... Dave Karofsky."
Instantly Burt sounded awake, " You okay son, did something happen with your dad?"
DK, " UH..no, he's still in the hospital, actually I am having a problem with my truck, I am really sorry to wake you up, but I am stranded at work."
Burt, " What's it doing, is it turning over at all?"
DK, " The engines fine, someone slashed all four of my tires."
Burt was silent for a moment, " Mr Hummel... are you still there?"
Burt, " Yeah, I'm here, I be there in a few minutes, did you call the police?"
DK, " Not yet, I think I will file a report in the morning, I just want to go to bed." he says with a sigh
Burt, " Okay"
Fifteen minutes later, Burt Hummel showed up. Dave was hoping that Kurt would have came too, at least get something good out of this situation. Not to mention he was a little nervous around Burt, since he had yet to be formally introduced as Kurt's boyfriend, although he was sure Burt already knew. It was going to be very awkward.
Burt started hooking up the truck, " Any idea who did this son?"
DK, " I have a pretty good idea, and I am hoping that the they were caught on camera."
Burt," So kid, how is your dad doing?"
DK, " I haven't gotten to talk to him in awhile, but the doc says he's doing a little better. They want to set up family counseling soon."
Burt, " that's good, just know if you ever need anything" and he puts his hand on Dave's shoulder, " You come see me okay"
Dave not sure of his voice just nods.
Burt walks to the cab of the truck, " Well I'll drop you off at home, and Kurt can pick you up in the morning."
Dave walks to the truck, glad to be going home, and relieved that Burt hasn't mentioned his relationship with Kurt. It was almost one in the morning, and he really didn't want to get the ( they will never find all the pieces if you hurt my son talk) before bed. He climbs in and buckles up. As they drive out of the lot, Burt looks over at him, " So you and Kurt " Dave rubs a hand down his face and just barely silences a groan.
A/N I should have another chapter and the epilogue up tonight or tomorrow.
