The day that I left Lucy, she cried.

"You can't go back to Ohio!" Kurt said. He wiped a few stray tears from his face.

"I have to, Kurt," Blaine replied. "My grandma's really sick. I need to be with her," Blaine said.

Kurt understood that, and Blaine knew that, but Kurt just wasn't okay with leaving. B

laine threw the rest of his clothes into his suitcase and zipped it.

Kurt thought about saying something about the clothes getting wrinkled, but he decided against it.

Blaine picked up his bag, said goodbye to Santana and Rachel, and went down to the street to hail a cab.

Kurt followed close behind him.

"I'll be back, though. She could get better really fast and I could be back next week!" Blaine said. They both knew that he was being incredibly optimistic. A taxi pulled up and the driver helped Blaine haul his luggage into the trunk. "I'll be back soon," Blaine said.

Kurt attacked him with a fierce hug. "Call me when you get back to Lima," he said.

"Of course. And every single night," Blaine said. He got into the cab and watched Kurt wave, getting smaller and smaller. He settled into the seat for the ride to the airport, wiping tears from his face. He wanted to tell the driver to turn around, but he knew he couldn't. He would just have to wait to be with Kurt again.
