A brutally violent attack leaves Blaine broken and terrified, and there's only one person in the world who he can trust to help him get through this... that is, if he doesn't manage to push that person away with his anguish, rage and fear. KLAINE. PTSD.

"Blaine…I don't want to die." Blaine felt his heart swell at the words. They sounded so weak, so vulnerable, so scared...Sam and Blaine are missing after volunteering to pick up pizza during Rachel's party. NOT BLAM! M for later chapters!Not Gleeverse!R&R

"you can hit us, beat us, scream at us, make fun of us, but it doesn't matter cuz it wont make us any less gay or you any less ignorant! I love Kurt and nothing you can do or say will change that…nothing"

Kurt and Blaine are going to take a while to get over this, especially when one of them isn't used to accepting help. Even though he's really going to need it this time.

Blaine recounts what happened to him, about a time when he was an introverted soul and was beaten up for who he was. But, what happens when a blast from the past threatens to destroy everything good he's built for himself? Contains mention of hate crimes.
