Hi guys!

Hope you're all good. As always. A huge, HUGE, thank you for your amazing respons. I love you all so much. For the last chapter you gave me such an amazing feedback and it was pure joy to read :) Anyway over 400 reviews? That's nuts! Haha. I had never in my life dreamt about that so thank you thank you thank you oce again. As most of you wanted Blaine again I decided in his pov. It was the one that made the most sense anyway. This chaper was a bitch to write. So hard to get out all the emotions I wanted so let's just see if I succeded :)

enjoy!


This was not how Blaine had imagined his first meeting with Kurt's dad. Not with Kurt in surgery fighting for his life while they had to sit in a cold empty waiting room. He sat on a chair opposite Mr Hummel who looked incredibly tired as he clutched his coffee mug with both of his hands. Finn sat next to Blaine, tears streaming down his face and he sobbed quietly. Carole made no move to comfort him. Instead she stared at him in disbelief.

"How could you do that, Finn?" She whispered, the disappointment was clear in her voice and she was close to tears herself.

"I told you, I don't know" Finn sobbed "I don't know. I just, I'm sorry"

His whole body trembled and his fingers shook when he fiddled with the hem of his sleeve. Blaine wondered if maybe he should reach out to pat Finn on the back. He really didn't like to see other people cry. He remained still in his seat, waiting for Mr Hummel to explode in anger and beat the living crap out of Finn after what Finn had just told him.

"Burt" Finn said. "I'm sorry. I know you hate me and I deserve it..."

Finally Burt looked at him. His eyes were the exact same colour as Kurt's.

"You're sorry?" He whispered. "You didn't protect him, Fin. You were never there for him when he needed you, instead you froze him out made him feel like you suddenly hated him, What had he done to you? Tell me what he did to deserve such treatment for his friends. What did he do to make you all turn your backs against him and call him selfish and whiny when you were the one's ignoring him. HOW COULD YOU DO THAT?"

Finn flinched at the raised voice but that didn't stop Mr Hummel from continuing his rant.

"HOW COULD YOU BE SO IGNORANT AND SELFISH, HUH?"

Mr Hummel's lip trembled but his voice remained steady.

Tears streamed down Finn's face.

"I'm so sorry" He choked out between the sobs.

"CUT IT, I DON'T WANT TO HEAR YOUR EXCUSES. WHAT YOU DID IS UNFORGIVABLE"

Mr Hummel had worked himself up and his face was turning slightly red from anger and he panted with fast breaths.

"Burt, you need to calm down. Your heart..." Carole tried to interrupt.

"I DON'T CARE ABOUT MY HEART!" Mr Hummel screamed "ALL I CARE ABOUT IS HOW YOUR SON MADE MY SON FEEL LIKE THIS AND THAT HE DIDN'T DO ANYTHING TO STOP IT FROM HAPPENING EVEN THOUGH HE KNEW SOMETHING WAS WRONG"

He rose from his seat and stood tall in front of Finn who backed up in his chair even more.

"I WANT YOU TO LEAVE AND I DONT WANT YOU NEAR MY SON EVER AGAIN, DO YOU HEAR ME? GET THE HELL OUT OF HERE"

With that he yanked Finn up from his seat by grabbing his arm violently. Finn let out another heart wrenching sob, looking at his mother for a second, seeking some sort of comfort, before he turned around and ran out of the room. Blaine looked down, not sure what to do. The whole situation was so surreal. This shouldn't happen at all. In front of him Mr Hummel broke down completely for the first time since he had arrived at the hospital. His knees gave out underneath him and he tumbled to the floor, way too much like Kurt earlier, only Mr Hummel couldn't stop crying. Blaine had never seen someone cry like that before. He didn't like it, it scared him when people looked strong showed to be so vulnerable and fragile. He twitched in his seat uncomfortable, watching as Carole tried to comfort her husband.

"Sch...it's gonna be okay. Kurt is so strong, he will pull through. He so much stronger than the rest of us."

Carole continued to rub her husbands back for a couple of minutes until he stopped shaking and is sobs got more controlled.

"Go find Finn" He demanded "He shouldn't be by himself right now. I shouldn't have yelled at him."

"It's okay, you have every right to be angry with him. I'm angry too and I know that you are worried about Kurt. Maybe we should talk about this later, when Kurt is okay."

Mr Hummel nodded.

"He has to be okay, I can't lose him, Carole" He said weakly.

Carole took hold of his hand and squeezed it.

"He will be, he will be." She said but she didn't seem fully convinced herself.

Blaine watched her leave, before he turned to Mr Hummel who hat sat down on his chair again. He looked more composed now even though the evidence of tears were clear on his face.

"Now I want you to explain to me how you know Kurt and how it come that you knew about the bullying and how Finn and the others were treating him without saying anything." He said and looked Blaine straight into the eyes.

"I guess I can do that" Blaine said looking down "Can I just...how is he? When you saw him I mean?"

He had to know. He just had to, because it was all that was really important in all this. Not who's fault it was but that Kurt would be okay. '

"He's not so good, son. He wasn't even conscious when I saw him. He's lost so much weight and I didn't even notice until now. He's so skinny and pale and they were poking him and the doctors said they don't know the full damage until they have him in surgery but it's risky and dangerous and there is a risk he might not make it"

"Oh" Blaine mumbled.

"Yeah" Mr Hummel answered. "You want to tell me now, I can't say I'm too fond of you at the moment but I still have a feeling you have been there for my kid when eve I wasn't and if you are Kurt's boyfriend like you say you are you have to be somewhat decent"

Blaine laughed a little at that.

"We met at the Lime theatre, Kurt was trying to get a refund for his tickets and I was behind him in the line. I felt sorry for him and then I saw him in front of me but he left during the half time break s I figured he had gotten home" He started.

Mr Hummel nodded slowly.

"However when I got out and was about to go back to my car with my friend Wes, I saw him sitting on one of the benches. He looked really sad and like he needed someone to talk to so I asked him if it was okay if I sat down and he said yes. We talked, he told me how you had chosen to go to football with Finn instead and how upsetting it was for him..."

Blaine saw Mr Hummel's face fall a little at that but he didn't say anything.

"He also told me about how he felt about his situation at school. He said that he felt lonely but I had never guessed it was that bad. I just think he thought it was nice to have someone to talk to you know. After all that was happening and you choosing his step brother in stead of him"

"I didn't do that" Mr Hummel said. "I just..."

Blaine shook his head.

"You did, you knew how important that musical was for him, that it wasn't just a musical to him. You should have seen it in his face. And it wasn't just the musical. You were always so interested in what Fin had done in school or at football practice and you watched games together and talked sports and Kurt just felt like you were happier when you spent time with Finn than with him and I think that hurt him more than he even told me. I think that's parts of why he distanced himself and didn't tell you what was going on. He didn't want you to think he was weak and he wanted to show you he could be a man to and stand up for himself and take care of himself." Blaine said with a small sigh "Anyway then we figured we would compete at sectionals against each other and we exchanged numbers and then we had a coffee at the Lima bean a couple of days later and that's when I noticed something was really wrong..."

"What do you mean?" Mr Hummel asked.

"I..."

He wasn't ready to spill his whole story about how he had been bullied and beaten up to the man but he sort of owed him an explanation

"I noticed how he looked in pain and he winced when he moved and I have some experience with hurt ribs so I kind of knew what was wrong so I asked him and he showed me them"

"And you decided not to tell anybody about this" Mr Hummel snapped looking at Blaine accusingly.

"I said it was bad but he was convinced it was just bruises and that they would heal fast. I tried to force him to tell you but he wouldn't. He said you didn't need to be put under any more pressure do to your heart problems. He said you could have an other heart attack and even die. Plus you hadn't even noticed for a whole week"

Now it was Blaine's turn to sound accusing.

"Anyway, I tried to make him tell you our his friends or even just go to the hospital but he refused and I didn't wanna get him more upset then he already was so I took him to my place and helped him wrap them up so they wouldn't hurt that bad."

"You should have told someone. You knew it was serious but you didn't tell anyone. That is very responsible!"

"I know okay, but honestly you should have noticed. You're his father. You should have known something was wrong with him but you didn't even see it so you can't really blame me for this. I tried every time I saw him to get him to tell you but he didn't want to and I think that is your fault, Mr Hummel. He didn't wanna disappoint you by being to weak and you were basically telling him that he needed to get stronger with the way you acted around him"

Mr Hummel opened his mouth to argue but closed it again nodding. He rubbed his face with his hands.

"You're right, I'm sorry I shouldn't have accused you of anything. I'm really glad Kurt had you through all this. I don't want to think about what could have happened otherwise. I screwed up so much, didn't I? God I hope he will forgive me for letting him down."

"He will. He loves you so much, he looks up to you and he loves you more than anything else in the world. Besides you were the one he asked for when we waited for the ambulance. He asked for his daddy." Blaine said and gently put a hand on the other man's shoulder.

"He only calls me that when he's really sick or really sad" Mr Hummel said "Oh, god, I should have been there for him. I should have seen him. It's my duty to look after him and make sure he's safe and he didn't even felt safe enough to tell me he was being bullied and harassed." Mr Hummel cried again and new tears welled up in his eyes.

"Hey, it's okay. You didn't know, you didn't know and Kurt just did what he thought was best for you" Blaine said and tried to sound comforting even though he was about to start crying too.

The room fell quiet again after that and no one said anything. Blaine kept checking the watch on the wall. Minute by minute went by. Why wouldn't anyone let them know what was going on? Why wasn't Kurt out of surgery yet? Blaine knew he should call his parents and let them know where he was but he couldn't bring himself to leave the room to make the call. Carole and Finn had come back after a while after Carole had made sure that Mr Hummel wouldn't beat Finn up but the man hadn't even looked up when Finn had sat down a few chairs away from him and while Finn looked relieved to be back he also looked absolutely terrified and hadn't even looked at anybody.

Blaine's phone beeped with an incoming text and he noticed it was one of many he had received in the last couple of hours. A few were from his mum asking him how the competition was going but most of them were from worried members of the Warblers asking him if he had heard anything about Kurt yet. Blaine eyed through all of them and decided to answer Wes'. The one that had been sent most recently. He opened the text to read the whole message.

How's Kurt?

Let us now as soon as

you know something.

Know you don't care

but we won!

Wes was right. He couldn't care less.

He sent a quick reply before putting his phone back into his pocket just as a doctor finally arrived and were looking their way. They all stumbled to their feet at the same time and hurried towards the doctor. It wasn't the same on as in the ER. This one looked fairly young with blonde, short hair and brown eyes. He had a serious look on his face that Blaine didn't like.

"I take it you are here for Kurt Hummel?" He said.

Mr Hummel nodded.

"I'm his dad, how is he?"

"I'm doctor Scott, I was the one to operate on Kurt. Kurt is alive but it was an extensive surgery and I'm afraid there was some complications. We ended up removing more then we intended to and he lost some blood. We also have him on strong antibiotics to fight of any infection that might develop. His body is very weak and we have sedated him to give his body time to repair. The next 24 hours will be critical for his chances to survive and we will move him to the ICU as soon as he is ready to be taken out of recovery"


Dududududu. Oh my. Oh time to hide again I guess. Will Kurtsi be okay? IS he gonna forgive Finn and his friends? Let me know what you think and I'll most likely update faster. Maybe wednesday? sounds good? :) Hit that button! Burt didn't get to scream all that much but I think it was okay. I focused on his other emotions instead since Blaine screamed so much in the last chapter. Besides I also think that he would be beyond himself at this point and just trying to keep himself togheter.

Anyway. I hoped you liked this chapter as I worked hard on it! Anyway until next time xx
