Uninvited Chapter 35, a glee fanfic

Kurt lied in the hospital bed on his stomach, his entire back bandaged. His head rested on the pillows with the blue sheets covering him up. Rachel was currently sitting with him, running her hand through his hair gently. Kurt let out a sigh, hissing in pain as he tried to push himself up. He just wanted to get out of here already. He'd been in the hospital for two days. His back was still hurting badly. Whenever he closed his eyes he could feel the thorns scraping his back open. He remembered when he went to church with Mercedes to pray for his dad, he heard the story of Jesus getting whipped and humiliated, and he felt like that right now. It was embarrassing that his friends saw him like that, tied down with a whip hitting his back. The pain had been excruciating in his skin. He tried to push himself up again, but Rachel pressed down on his head gently.

"You need to rest. You cannot move right now, Kurt," she whispered. "Doctor's orders."

Kurt nodded. He buried his head in the pillows and felt the floodgates begin to open.

"Do you need more ice?" Rachel asked.

Kurt nodded as Rachel got up to go and find a nurse. Five minutes later, he felt a cold compress on his back, and he let out a sigh. The ice felt good on his broken skin.

"You're gonna be alright, Kurt," she whispered.

Kurt just turned his head over to look at her, tears rolling down his cheeks. Rachel let out a sigh and kissed his cheek to wipe it away, grabbing his hand and saying a silent prayer. She just pressed the ice pack into his back gently to soothe the pain. She was practically nursing him. "You want me to sing? Anything?"

Kurt nodded gently.

And another one bites the dust
But why can I not conquer love?
And I might've thought that we were one
Why not to fight this war without weapons
And I wanted it and I wanted it bad
But there were so many red flags
Now another one bites the dust
And let's be clear, I trust no one

You did not break me
I'm still fighting for peace

I've got a thick skin and an elastic heart
But your blade it might be too sharp
I'm like a rubber band until you pull too hard
But I may snap and I move fast
But you won't see me fall apart
Cause I've got an elastic heart
I've got an elastic heart
Yeah, I've got an elastic heart

And I will stay up through the night
Let's be clear, I won't close my eyes
And I know that I can survive
I walked through fire to save my life
And I want it, I want my life so bad
And I'm doing everything I can
Then another one bites the dust
It's hard to lose a chosen one

You did not break me
(You did not break me, no, no)
I'm still fighting for peace

Oooh

I've got an elastic heart

The very next morning, Kurt found himself being confined to the sofa and forced to lie down, an ice bag resting on his shoulder to try and relieve the pain. His head rested on the back of a pillow that had already been set, a blanket resting over his whole body. It was currently twelve in the morning as he tried to rest, his back in searing pain. He could not move a single muscle, or otherwise the pain would get worse. He just lied there on the couch, trying to sleep, but he couldn't with his back practically ripped apart.

The next morning, Finn helped Kurt into a sitting position against the pillows and adjusting his blankets. Kurt knew Finn was doing that to show he cared. Kurt sunk into the pillows, trying to relax himself. His back still felt as though it had been sliced open with a knife. Finn was left home with Kurt while Carol was at work and Burt went to go get his son's prescription for pain medicine filled out. They were watching Friends to try and distract Kurt from the pain in his back when they heard a knock on the door. Finn got up to go and get it. It was obviously Mike and his father coming by to get the trial cleared up so they could move forward with it after Kurt's back healed. Mike and his father came in and sat in chairs across from Kurt and Finn. Mike Sr. had his hands folded in his lap.

"Kurt how's your back?" Mike asked.

Kurt gasped in pain at the slightest movement of his shoulder.

"I'm guessing not too good?" Mike winced.

"You think?" Kurt demanded. He gave Mike his bitch glare.

"So Kurt, a couple things cleared. Karofksy, Azimio and Rick are being held in prison right now. You are going to need to give an alibi, which will help. And also, the problems with the courts in this case is that they are going to be looking towards Karofsky, Azimio and Rick if their evidence is valid, but they are guilty as sin. The worst case scenario is that the trial will take several days until we actually crack those guys," Mike Sr. said.

"But what if they are found innocent?" Finn asked.

"Finn nobody will believe that Kurt came onto them. They're guilty as sin, Finn. Those guys are gonna lie when they are on the stand, we all know that, but we do need Kurt to give an alibi to prove that those guys are guilty of this. As far as we know, the judge is fair, but Karofsky, Azimio and Rick's lawyer is going to try to twist things around to make it look like Kurt is to blame," Mike said.

Kurt nodded.

"And besides I was down there watching them do that. I'm already a witness to that, Kurt. I will tell those jury members exactly what I saw, and I'm gonna be completely honest with them," Mike said. "Trust me, they're gonna make themselves look like proven idiots up there. Nobody is gonna believe them. I'm telling you that right now."

Author's Note:

So sorry for such a long update! I've been SOOOOOO busy with practices for Legally Blonde at my school. The show is this weekend, so keep me and the cast in your prayers. The song I included is "Elastic Heart" by Sia, which is incredible.
