The Crash

by RainySunnyEnding

When Kurt says goodbye to Blaine one evening, little does he know that the next time he sees him, his boyfriend will be lying in a coma. And he just isn't waking up. A story of how families and relationships can be devastated by tragedy. Written entirely in speech between the characters. Very angsty. A gift for DemigodGleek as a thank you for her continued support.

"Hullo?"

"Hi dad."

"Hey, kiddo. How are things?"

"Really good, actually. Though Rachel's in a strop with me."

"Oh? Why's that?"

"Because we had this... thing and I've just realised I'm not meant to tell anyone about it."

"Kurt. Who am I going to tell?"

"...mm, okay. Right. Basically, we had a competition. One to see who could sing best. Because she didn't believe that I threw the high F on purpose when we sang Defying Gravity in school and so we-"

"You threw the high F?"

"... That's not important. Anyway, everyone got together and we sort of voted and, well, I won. And she's upset."

"Right. ... Kiddo, do you realise we're been speaking for almost a whole minute and you haven't-"

"How's Blaine?"

"No change."

"...thank you."
