When Blaine came to, there was someone tapping his cheek and speaking softly to him. All he could smell was dust when he breathed in and it made him sit up and cough, leaning against whoever was next to him.

"He ok?" came a rough deeper voice to his right, but he didn't turn to see, the person he was leaning on, put an arm around him.

"Yeah he's ok." came the soft reply to the question, and he knew that voice, it was right by his ear.

Kurt.

As Blaine finished coughing and managed to breathe in a couple of deep breaths, he opened his eyes, seeing a crumbled pile of building over Kurt's shoulder. But he also knew they were outside, and it was dark.

"Kurt, what happened?" He asked curiously, his voice rough from breathing in so much dust and grit in the air around them.

He tried to remember what happened before he blacked out, but all he could remember was hearing Kurt scream and that's it. Nothing else.

Kurt's fingers carded through the back of his hair as Blaine was still leaning against him, and chuckled softly into his shoulder.

"You saved us Bee."

"Wha-" Blaine started to ask confused, but Kurt pulled hi back a little to look at his face.

"All of us. You saved all of us from that building." Kurt said with a soft smile and as the information sank in, Blaine's brows furrowed together.

"How?"

"Some kind of shield." a deep voice behind him made him jump, and he turned sharply, wincing as pain ran through his neck and head sharply at the movement.

He saw one of the agents from earlier, one of the guys who had been in the room with Kurt when Blaine found him. He looked dusty and tired and messed up, but he was giving Blaine a soft look. The other thing that surprised Blaine was that he wasn't trying to arrest him or shoot him right now.

The next thing he noticed were flashing blue and red lights of ambulances all around them. And he turned back to Kurt with a question ready on his lips, but whatever he wanted to ask, Kurt already had the answer.

"You saved them," Kurt said as Blaine opened his mouth, "everyone inside, you got them all out. It was scary, for a second I thought we were all going to die. But you made some kind of shield, and stopped the building from crushing us all, and then moved everyone outside."

Blaine narrowed his eyes as he tried to think of it, but nothing came to him.

"After that," Kurt continued, "you passed out. You were out for hours, sweetheart. Agent Jones called ambulances, but I didn't want them to move you in case they did more damage, and nobody really wanted to touch you after I explained how your powers work when you're stressed."

"Explained? You told them about me?" Blaine asked a little curiously but also a little terrified and Kurt shook his head with a smile.

"They already knew about your powers." Kurt told him, running a hand over Blaine's cheek in comfort, "me and Special Agent Jones had a long chat while you were out. I explained about the bullies at school, about us."

"That we're together." Kurt whispered to him and Blaine looked back to the officer, Jones, with a slightly embarrassed look.

"Oh don't worry about me, Blaine. My brother's gay." Jones reassured him, and then gave him a soft smile, "now that you're awake though, we need to talk too."

Blaine suddenly looked completely overcome with fear. His eyes went wide and his face went pale as he gripped Kurt's arms painfully.

"Oh my god, this is it isn't it. You're going to lock me in some lab and experiment on me and take my blood, and use me as a weapon and make me do crazy things.." he started stammering as he panicked and Kurt quickly turned his head back to meet his gaze.

"Easy baby, easy." he soothed as Blaine's eyes closed tightly.

"Kurt.." He choked out and Kurt shushed him.

"I know honey I know. I know you're scared. But it'll be okay." He comforted Blaine, rubbing his hands along his arms and across his back slowly, trying to calm his terrified boyfriend as Jones looked on with shame on his face.

"I won't hurt you Blaine," Jones said from behind him, but Blaine refused to look at him, still sitting against Kurt with his eyes closed, "I promise. I just want to talk to you. We can get your parents, and Kurt can stay with you throughout all of it. Just keep calm kid."

"Kurt!"

The shout of his name in his father's voice behind him , made him tear up before he evened turned around fully.

He and Blaine had been taken to the local hospital for treatment for their various injuries and while Kurt was sitting outside of Blaine's room with Special Agent Jones, his parents had been informed of his whereabouts and Kurt had been told that his parents were booking a flight out right away.

Now that his boyfriend had been checked over, Blaine was sitting beside him waiting on his own parents arrival, and turned to smile at Burt too as he turned with Kurt.

"Dad!" Kurt shouted as he ran a little way towards Burt, colliding with the older man and being squeezed tightly in his father's arms.

Carole and Finn then appeared and hugged their arms around both Burt and Kurt, one big family group hug.

Blaine stood watching with a soft smile as Kurt cried and laughed with his family, all of them asking questions and Kurt nodding and giving answers to all of them. It was nice to see Kurt with them again, that's what he was always afraid he would never see. Their reunion.

Special Agent Jones stood on the other side of the small corridor opposite Blaine and gestured for him to go ahead when Blaine looked at him questioningly. He swallowed hard as he walked up to reacquainted family, all of whom had tears streaming down their faces and happy smiles, he didn't know if he would be interrupting. Or even if he would be welcome in this group right now.

Burt spotted him walking up behind Kurt and immediately pushed past Finn to hug Blaine equally as tightly as he had Kurt.

"Thank you for keeping my little boy safe." Burt whispered in his ear and Blaine's eyes were wet when he pulled away.

"Of course." He replied with a soft smile, and then Carole and Finn both were hugging him and he laughed along happily with them as well.

It was joyous, and such a relief for them to see family again.

"You guys scared the crap out of all of us," Finn said with a small sigh, "when those things came up on the news about you..."

"Finn, we don't have to talk about that now," Carole interrupted, seeing how uncomfortable Kurt and Blaine looked, "let's just enjoy being together again."

"Sorry." Finn said as he looked at them guiltily, but Kurt only laughed and hugged his brother again.

"It's ok." he whispered into Finn's shirt and made a happy noise as his brother's arms wrapped around him too.

He pulled away after a few seconds to look around at the faces of his family, noting the wet eyes and happy grins, and the relieved looking posture of his father. He stepped back to stand next to Blaine, and was about to tell his family of their own new development when a screech down the hall interrupted him.

"Blainey!"

Every head turned towards the high pitched scream and Blaine's whole face lit up.

"Mom!"

He was not prepared for his mother to barrel straight into him, knocking them both to the floor. But he only laughed and hugged her tightly as she squeezed him against her where she had fallen forward on her knees.

He inhaled his mother's perfume and looked over her shoulder up at Kurt, who was smiling down at him with tears in his eyes again. His eyes widened as he looked past the Hummel family.

"Dad! Coop!" He yelled happily as his father and brother came into view and they ran and skidded on the floor next to his mother and threw their arms around him too.

He sighed a little as Coop ruffled his hair and his dad placed a kiss on his forehead. And his family just sat hugging and crying with him for a few minutes, and nobody said a word.

His mother pulled back after another minute and wiped her eyes on the sleeve of her jacket before grabbing his face in her hands, and staring at him.

"You've gotten taller, and thinner. Have you not been eating properly?" She questioned as Blaine rolled his eyes, before Cooper interrupted.

"Of course not, the little delinquent's been on the run." he said in jest but his mother cuffed him around the head lightly.

"Stop." She warned him as she turned to face Blaine again, "i'm so glad you're safe. I worried about you everyday."

"That doesn't stop a mother from worrying." she replied with a sad smile, and Blaine's father placed a hand on his shoulder.

"Are you really okay?" he asked lightly, "we saw some of things they were saying on the news about that police car and such."

"Do you have control?" His mother asked insistently and Blaine nodded.

"Yeah, after the warehouse fell, I don't remember much, but I feel like they're under much better control now."

Kurt moved towards the Anderson's huddled on the floor of the corridor and looked down at Blaine's family with a small smile as they looked up at him.

"Blaine only lost control twice, while we were away. And it was only because of stress and emotion." he explained to them and they all seemed to nod in relief.

Blaine's father stood up first, and took one of Kurt's hands.

"We have you to thank for keeping him safe out there." he said and Kurt smiled bashfully.

"Actually Mr Anderson, we kept each other safe."

Blaine brushed off his mother's hands and stood as Kurt smiled at him, stepping forward and wrapping his arms around Kurt while they placed their foreheads together.

"Kurt saved me multiple times out there." he mumbled enough so that everyone could hear him.

Kurt nudged him with his nose, making a noise of disagreement.

"Actually you saved me multiple times."

They pulled their heads back and locked gazes with loving smiles and Blaine's mother stood and stared at them curiously.

"Did something else happen out there?" she asked and they turned to her with blushes on their faces, before regarding the rest of their gathered family.

"Yes," Blaine responded looking around at everyone with a smile, "Kurt and I are together."

As everyone smiled at them Cooper snorted loudly rom behind Blaine.

"Figured they had time to have sex out there." He said and everyone glared at him as Blaine turned around.

"Cooper!"

After the reunion with their families, they were all taken to the local police station so that Special Agent Jones could gather the full report and account from both Blaine and Kurt. Asking them all kinds of questions for hours, with their families waiting outside for them.

Kurt finished first and was impatiently waiting for Blaine with his family. Biting his fingernails anxiously until Carole placed a hand on his knee in comfort.

"I don't know what's taking so long." Kurt finally said aloud, "mine was over with an hour ago, how long do they plan on keeping us here?"

"Did they say they were charging you with anything?" Blaine's dad asked and Kurt shook his head.

"Not to me."

"What sort of things did they ask you?" Finn asked as he stared at Kurt curiously, and Kurt turned to give him a pointed stare.

"Just why we ran away, and then what did we think the outcome would be, and if we hurt anybody. Stuff like that." He explained a little vaguely and Finn tilted his head.

"You didn't hurt anyone did you?" He asked hesitantly causing Kurt to glare at him.

"Really Finn?" he said a little angrily, crossing his arms over his chest, "of course not."

Finn put his hands up in silent surrender as Burt and Carole gave him disappointed looks too.

Kurt sat back in his chair and one of his legs began bouncing nervously as he glanced at the hallway with which Blaine was taken for questioning, and frowned a little.

"What if they take him away?" He asked quietly, his eyes turning panicked and then sad, "what if they've already done it?"

"Kurt, breathe sweetie." Blaine's mom said with a comforting smile, "i think it's taking a while because Blaine has more to say, that's it."

"Did they ask you to explain what happened at school?" Blaine's father asked as he turned his worried eyes to Kurt too, and Kurt nodded.

"Yeah."

Unbeknownst to the family members that were waiting impatiently for Blaine in the corridor, Blaine's interview and report was going to take several more hours. He was brought into another room after giving his account to Special Agent Jones, and wires and stickers were attached to his body, hands, feet, chest and head, while they asked him to try and do things with these powers of his.

Two scientists were jotting down notes with Jones sitting at the back of the room and watching. Blaine went through a series of health checks first, including blood and urine samples too. And now he was sitting in a small chair, which was uncomfortable, facing a machine that was holding up a pane of glass.

He gave Jones an impatient look, he had already been sitting here for 40 minutes while they asked him question after question and even hooked him up to a lie detector machine.

Jones only gave him a tiny shrug as if to say, just get on with it kid. And Blaine glared at him as the scientists walked back over to him. The female one, with blonde hair hanging down to her shoulders, smiled kindly at him as he shifted his numb bottom in the chair again.

"I promise Blaine, just 15 more minutes okay, we just have a couple more thing we want you to do." She said as she hooked the wires from the lie detector back up to him, and then made sure the wires from his head were properly in place so they could monitor brain waves before saying, "ok, can you try and break that glass in front of you please?"

"Excuse me?" Blaine asked a little worried and she smiled again.

"Can you break that glass with your mind for us please?" she asked again and he swallowed s he glanced at Jones.

Jones didn't seem phased at the question and just nodded at Blaine, before sitting back and watching again.

Blaine turned his eyes to the glass panel that was about 3 feet away from him and concentrated. The monitor of his brain waves went up and started beeping but all Blaine got was a headache and the glass did not move.

"I-i...can't." he mumbled a little confused, and winced as his temple throbbed with pain.

"You can't?" Jones asked from across the room and Blaine shook his head.

"No...i- i tried...i can't." Blaine looked surprised at it himself, so Jones got up to talk to the scientists behind him.

The lie detector he was hooked up to did not move from its line, so Blaine was telling the truth. Jones chatted to the others for another minute, before he turned and unhooked all of the wires from Blaine's hands and face, and smiled at him.

"Come on, it's over. Let's get you back to your parents."

Blaine looked a little confused as he guided him from the room.

"What-what about...?"

"Don't worry about it. Come on, i need to talk to everyone that was waiting for you." Jones said with finality in his voice and Blaine nodded silently as he was led down the hall.

Blaine's mother and Kurt were the first to spot Blaine and Jones as they came down the hall, and Kurt literally tripped over his own feet in his haste to reach him and hug him. Jones coughed a little behind them and Kurt released him as he turned to address everyone.

"I need everyone to come with me, i need to discuss some things with all of you." He said and when everyone glanced at each other and didn't move, he gestured with his hands to follow him, "please. This way."

Everyone was murmuring amongst themselves as they followed after the Agent, and into a small side room, that just about fit everyone inside. When Kurt and Blaine were the last to walk in, Jones shut the door and stood in front of it with his hands in his pockets.

"Okay, i have a few things to say first, and then i'll answer any questions you have," he announced as everyone waited curiously, "Firstly. I am charging Blaine and Kurt with obstruction of justice and destruction of government property."

Burt let out a noise, almost like a grunt.

"After what your thugs did to his face, you can't charge him with anything, we'll sue your ass." He exclaimed as he stalked towards Jones with his finger pointed at him, anger evident on his face.

"Dad." Kurt stopped his father with a hand on his arm, and Burt took a step back.

"Obstruction of justice because they refused to come forward, and the fact that they used fake in hotels around the country." Jones said and Blaine's father looked down a little guiltily as his wife glared at him, "Second. I will be proposing they be giving community service for 6 months, and we will also be watching them for a further 5 years."

"What?" Kurt gasped, "you can't watch us."

Jones turned to him with calculating eyes.

"We need to make sure that we haven't put dangerous delinquents back into society. This is the way it has to be Mr Hummel."

Everyone murmured in defiance at that, and Jones sighed as he placed a hand over the back of his neck.

"Thirdly, what happened at McKinley High School," he started almost sullenly, and Blaine and Kurt both held their breaths as he continued, "I will be reporting that the ceiling caved in because of a faulty building code, and that Blaine and Kurt had nothing to do with it. Also, i won't be charging anybody with attempted murder or grievous bodily harm, or intent to cause harm."

Everyone sighed in relief as Jones looked at Kurt and Blaine.

"From both of your accounts of what happened, this must have ben an act of some kind of self defence, right?" HE asked at the end and forcing them both to nod.

"I will be making an official report to the head of state affairs about you both, and clearing your names of anything that could potentially harm your futures. But there is still the matter of the media which we should go over."

"The media will have been told the unofficial statement of both of your arrests, but they have not et been informed of anything concrete. We need to come up with a story that clears both of you of any malicious intent or crimes." Jones went on as he produced a tiny notebook from the pocket of his jacket and flipped a couple of pages before going on, "the media will be giving certain facts of the case, that include as follows- the police wanted to question you both about what happened in school, that both boys had no idea that the police were looking for them for questioning and instead went on a road trip. We can also argue that the information that the news channels cast was inconclusive and detrimental to the case.

"That saying, we have removed any and all copies of all news tapes that have claimed it was a manhunt or that you were the cause of putting those boys in hospital, and so no evidence will ever be proven that you two were at all involved in any of it."

"You would really do all of that?" Kurt asked with a raised eyebrow, and Jones gave him a smirk.

"Nothing we haven't done previously Mr Hummel."

Kurt almost shuddered at the way he said it, but Blaine squeezed his hand and gave him a smile.

"So, essentially, we're off the hook?" Blaine turned and asked as his mother grabbed and held his other hand.

"What hook Mr Anderson?" Jones asked also with a smirk before he turned and left the room, leaving the door open for everyone to leave.

"Is that it?" Carole spoke out loud, what everyone was thinking, until another officer came to usher them out of the room and led them to the back exit, claiming that there were lots of cameras waiting out front.

"I don't know if I completely trust Agent Jones, but.." Blaine started while everyone was loaded into two different, "what he said about the media frenzy that's going to follow us. I don't know how i'm going to handle it."

His mother turned to give him a smile, reaching out to hug him tightly.

"Whatever happens Blainey, we'll handle it together." she whispered in his ear and he held her in his arms just as tightly.

Even though she could be overly emotional, as all mothers, Blaine had missed her a lot. When she let him go, Kurt came up to him with his shoulders a little hunched over and a tiny pout on his face.

Blaine laughed and hugged him when he got closer, Kurt nuzzled his face into the side of his neck briefly and then pulled away.

"All this time together, it feels sort of unnatural to be going separate ways now." He said with a small sigh and a frown, running his hands over Blaine's shoulders, "I have to go with my family, to catch up. And you need to do the same."

Blaine gave him a small kiss and leaned their foreheads together, closing his eyes and sighing in deeply.

"It doesn't mean we'll stay apart, we're still boyfriends you know."

He felt Kurt smile against him and nod.

"Definitely. You're not getting rid of me anymore Anderson. I can promise you that." He replied and they both laughed before leaning in for a deeper kiss, before a short cough interrupted them and they pulled back with blushes of embarrassment.

Burt stood there with a small grin.

"Time to go kid." He said as he gestured for Kurt to get in the other car, and Kurt sighed and nodded, giving his boyfriend one last hug before following his father.

Blaine watched as Kurt got to the door of the car and turned to give him a smile, blew a kiss towards him with a wink and got in. He smiled to himself as he watched the car drive away, before climbing in to the other car next to his brother.

"So...boyfriends on the run," Cooper said as the car started to pull away from the back of the station, "that would make an incredible movie."

Blaine shook his head as he watched the town go by out of the window. Breathing a lot easier now that he was back with his family and loved ones. He no longer felt that fear, or regret for anything that may have occurred this past year.

All he felt was incredible relief.
