Kurt had just finished unpacking his things. It didn't take him long, maybe an hour or so. He still couldn't get over the room. He laughed and laid himself on the bed for a moment. Collecting his thoughts. There was a light knock on the door and he sat up and made his way over and opened it. There was no one there and his gaze fell to the floor. A bouquet of flowers. They was breathtakingly beautiful. Pink Orchids and white Lilies was arranged gorgeously inside the bouquet box. It looked really expensive and it was massive. He lowered himself down and lifted the little note that was attached to it.

Mr Hummel,

Thank you for your kindness, your laughter and your intelligence. We thank you profusely. Welcome to Dalton Academy.

Love, The Warblers.

He grinned and rolled his eyes. Such gentleman. He carefully picked them up and brought them into his room. He thought of leaving them in his room but he knew he would be mostly in his office so that's what he did. He placed them on the table behind his desk and stood back and looked at them. He shook is head and a laugh escaped his mouth. He took his phone out and sent a photo to his dad with the note and placed his phone on his office table. He wasn't just going to like it here, he was going to love it.

The warblers was watching their new teacher around the corner. They watched him slowly crouch down and the toothy grin spread his face. They wanted to do something nice for him to thank him. Now they knew he was a sucker for flowers.

"Told you. He looks like a flower person." Jeff said grinning wildly to his boyfriend.

"Good call baby." Nick said kissing his cheek.

All the boys were was excited for him to start. He was refreshing and brought a new feel to teaching. He answered everything without hesitation and they liked that. They felt like they could ask him everything.

"What lesson is he teaching today?" Blaine asked the group as they was walking back to the common room. They had an hour before their lesson started with Mr Hummel.

"I don't actually know. I think Mr Banks said it's going to be a bonding session. He's going to have a class with most of the students today so he get's know everybody." Wes piped up to Blaine.

"He's so cool." David said laughing.

"Sex on a stick." Sebastian said smirking.

"He's not into you Seb. He was just entertaining you." Nick said punching his arm lightly.

"The way he teared that condom will his teeth would tell me a otherwise." Sebastian shot back punching Nick back on the arm.

"I'm totally straight dude but that man does things to me." David said casually as they walked to the common room to chill out before there lesson. They all laughed and nodded.

"It the accent for me." David said fanning himself with his hand. Wes laughed and pushed him nearly making him fall over but Wes grabbed him quick so he wouldn't.

"It's the suits for me." Wes said smirking.

"It's the eyes for me." Blaine shot back.

"Ugh it's that fucking body for me." Sebastian said turning towards them.

"It's the fucking brain for me!" Thad said pretending to swoon.

"It's the way he said fellatio for me." For me Trent said with a wink. They all laughed and sat themselves down in the common room.

"I'm just glad we finally have a teacher that actually understand us and isn't double our age." Nick said piling his boyfriend on his lap.

"Oh definitely. He's gorgeous." Jeff said smirking and turning his head towards his boyfriends neck so he could kiss it.

Kurt had been changed. He wore a gorgeous navy suit. It was pretty similar to his green one he wore on his first day. He grabbed his laptop and made his way way to his first lesson. Mr Banks had explained that now the Warblers had finished nationals they all has a spare open hour. Kurt was filling it for the time being. He made his way to his classroom he was teaching in and knocked on the door and opened it.

"Good morning gentlemen." Kurt said smiling.

"Morning Mr H!" Jeff said excitedly. Kurt liked the nickname so he let it slide.

"Morning Mr Hummel." Blaine said smiling at him. Kurt nodded politely and made his way to the front of the classroom. They all welcomed him happily and Kurt smiled.

"Thank you for the gift. They're beautiful but it really wasn't necessary." Kurt said smiling at his class.

"It was your welcome gift Mr Hummel." Wes said smiling at there smile their teacher was giving them. He really did love it.

"Well I'm truly thankful." Kurt said grinning. He inhaled deeply and looked away and started pulling his laptop out. "So, I thought today would be a good day for you to all to know me. We are going to be spending a lot of time together." Kurt was setting up his personal laptop. "And I want to be perfectly honest with you." Kurt leaned on the desk and pulled up a PowerPoint.

Kurt smiled at them. "Remember when you asked me Mr Duval what my life has been like?" Nick nodded.

"Well I thought I would show you. Right from the beginning." Kurt said looking back up to them.

"This isn't going to be nice. Nor is it going to be easy. After i've finished, your assignment will be to compete one of these." He pointed to the screen. "For me."

Kurt grabbed the presentation clicker his hands. "You don't have to share anything personal. It can be your likes, dislikes or anything you're comfortable with and don't feel obliged to go easy because mine isn't."

"If anything it to much. You're welcome to leave. It'll be quick like ripping a plaster off."

They all nodded. "Good. Let's start."

Kurt clicked the bottom and the slide show shifted. It was a picture of him as a baby. He was being held in his mother's arms and Burt was kissing his mother's cheek. There was a of 'awww' around the roll and he rolled his eyes. He pulled himself onto the desk.

"My name is Kurt Hummel. I was born on the fourteen of February in the year two thousand."

"Valentine's Day?" Sebastian asked with a smirk.

"Yes Mr Symthe, I can't have anything to myself." Kurt said back and the classroom laughed.

"My mother is Elizabeth Hummel." He pointed the gorgeous lady who was on the screen. "I had ten beautiful years with her before her passing. Intoxicated bastard had hit her car drivers side. She died almost instantly."

"I'm sorry Mr Hummel." Blaine said and the whole classroom nodded. Kurt smiled.

"Don't be. Things happen that we can't control."

Kurt pointed to his dad and smiled. "This is my father Burt Hummel and yes. The name is unfortunately real." They all laughed and the similarities and nodded. "He is originally from the states but moved to England to be with my mother. After she died, my father stayed with me there until I eighteen and then we both decided to move residency back so he could open his own garage."

"Garage?" Nick said. Kurt laughed.

"Garage." He repeated again in an American accent and they laughed.

"Damn that was good you would never know you're English." David said laughing.

"I'm pretty good with accents. I'll show you sometime."

"I had a horrible childhood. Not on my parents behalf but because of the bullying." The guys shook their heads in annoyance. "It was excruciating."

He pulled a picture up of him when he was five.

"Damn you was a cute kid." Jeff said softly. "Adorable!"

"Thank you. The braces and the gigs did everything for the tormentors."

"Gigs?" Wes laughed out.

Kurt rolled his eyes and pointed to the glasses on his face.

"I was always intelligent. Every one of my classes I was the top off. I couldn't help it. My brain just did it." Kurt clicked the button again and it showed a picture of him sitting with awards, trophies and certificates. "I won everything. From competitions to exams to even a over twenty one mathematical olympiad which I smashed at the age of eight."

"Damn." Trent blew out and Kurt nodded.

Kurt clicked it again to show a video of him when he was eleven. He was wearing a long blonde wig, a princess dress and a pair of heels. He was laughing loudly and his dad was dancing him round the room. Kurt and the classroom laughed.

"I was a very eccentric child. Very flamboyant. My voice was a very high falsetto. Everyone knew I was gay before I even come out. I asked my dad for a pair of sensible heels for my eleventh birthday."

He flicked the photo over to him wearing the heels beaming wildly. There was a chorus of laughter and Kurt laughed too. He he clicked it again and the whole classroom gasped. It was a photo of him. He looked a lot older now. His face was badly beaten, his nose was most definitely broke. He had two black eyes and majority of his teeth had been smashed out.

"I was jumped walking home when I was fourteen."

He clicked a photo again and it was photo on him shirtless and the whole room went silent.

"They had caved faggot into my stomach with a pen knife. They had beat me so much I couldn't see straight."

Kurt looked around. "I can stop."

"No, carry on please." Wes said with his eyes glued to the photo. The letters were cut into his body. He felt sick. They all did. Kurt nodded and took his blazer off and carried on talking.

"I had reconstructive surgery to my face because my bones was shattered beyond repair. I had all of the rest of my teeth removed and I had dental porcelain veneers into my mouth which started another nickname off. Porcelain."

He placed his blazer on the chair carefully.

"Four broken ribs, two broken wrists, one broken arm, one broken leg, a punctured lung, a bleed on my brain. I lost the ability to walk, talk and eat on my own but that wasn't good enough so they sexual assaulted me too."

Kurt started to unbutton his shirt. They didn't talk. They just listened. He lifted his hand and clicked the button again and it was a picture of him hospital. Beaten, broken and bruised practically his whole body was in cast but there was still a smile on his face.

"It ruined my life and because of it I have to relive it every night when I close my eyes."

"That's why you're exhausted everyday isn't it?" Blaine said softly and they all came to the realisation. Kurt nodded.

"I can't sleep. As soon as I close my eyes it happens, I'm back there all over again. I am medicated but I choose not to take them because of the side effects. It's my own fault really."

Kurt finished his shirt and opened it up to reveal him stomach. The word faggot was scared into his stomach alone his stomach among other countless of scares across his chest and body. it was devastating to see. He kept it open for a few seconds before starting to button it back up.

"My recover took two years. It was a never ending battle with myself." Kurt smiled and started to tuck his shirt back into his trousers.

"The next two years or my life went a blur. I traveled the world to teach." Kurt clicked the slide show to show him when he went to Africa. He was standing round the children and they had his arms wrapped wrapped round him and he was beaming at the camera. "I met some extraordinary people and made friendships that will lasts a life time."

Kurt lifted his blazer and slide it onto his body. "I moved to the states and met my boyfriend, Elliot." He clicked the button and a photo flashed on them two. Elliots arm was wrapped round Kurt tightly and they was staring at eachother laughing. Kurt had his thrown back. "We clicked straight away. The chemistry was consuming."

"I was still a virgin at this point. The thought of being sexual with someone physically made me sick. He was understanding and never pushed me."

When we finally did, I couldn't stop." Kurt laughed out and the classroom did. "I didn't want to be scared anymore."

"My dad's shop is thriving, I'm the happiest I've ever been and I'm incredibly thankful that I survived it."

"My favourite colour is blue, I could eat cheesecake till the cows come home."

The whole classroom laughed Sebastian added in. "What flavour is your favourite?" He said grinning

"Most definitely strawberry." Kurt laughed. "I hate flying on planes even though my life has been full off it. I love fashion as you can tell." He pointed down to his suit. "If I could live anywhere it would be in France, my biggest fear is loosing my father, I hate people who chew loudly or with there mouths open. It infuriates me, teaching is the only thing I want to do for the rest of my life, I love repairing cars, I hate American football, I love to sing too but I hardly do it in front of anyone."

"Oh my god what vocal range are you?" Wes said with joy in his eyes.

"Countertenor." Kurt smirked at there faces.

"No fucking way." Blaine breathed out and they all laughed.

"I'll show you sometime if I get the bottle." Wes nodded frantically and Kurt chuckled.

"I love cleaning. I'm obsessed. I hate when anything is out of place, I read. All the time. I would rather read than have a book in my hands. I hate scary movies. I'm a shit bag."

They all started laughing in shock and Kurt rolled his eyes. "I could go on forever but we only have two minutes left but thank you for letting me share it with you."

Jeff was crying softly and Nick had a arm round his shoulder. They all was. It was shocking.

"You're so brave Mr Hummel." Thad said smiling at him.

Thank you Mr Harwood." Kurt grinned before turning the slide show off. "I want you to know everything, I want you to trust me. I want you to be able to come to me whenever you need. My door is always open, day and night. I don't sleep much so I don't mind the company."

"Thank you for sharing it with us." Blaine said sweetly beaming at his teacher. Kurt laughed and nodded. "No problem."

"So, I would like you all to create one yourself and email me it. Remember, it doesn't have to be as in-depth as mine and you don't have to share anything you don't want too." Kurt said before walking in front of them.

"I'll always be here for you."

They all started to clap and stand up. Kurt rolled his eyes again and laughed.

"Okay okay now stop that. You'll make me cry." Kurt winked. The bell signed and they all stood up. Jeff ran over and hugged him tightly around his waist.

"Jeff!" Nick said sternly and Kurt laughed and wrapped his arms round him too. Nick shrugged and joined in. They all ran over and hugged him together.

"Now you can all get off me now. I don't want harassment suit on my hands." Kurt said bluntly and they all jumped off.

"I'm kidding. I'm twenty one fellas. I can do what a want." Kurt smirked and they all laughed. Kurt nodded to the door. "Now go to your next class. Don't be late gentleman."

"I can't believe what happened to him." Jeff said holding his boyfriends hands had they made there way to there next class.

"Me neither. He's an angel." Nick replied replied back.

"Bastards." Blaine snapped out and they all agreed. "How can you do that to someone?"

"Some fucked up people in this world gorgeous."Sebastian said.

"Yeah." Blaine said sadly.

Kurt was sitting on his classroom after they had left. He thought he was pushing it but it worked. It was out in the open. If he was going to live with these man they needed to know everything. It was better now than letter. He packed up this things and fixed the chairs back into place. He went to push Blaine's chair in see a folded up piece of paper on his desk. He frowned and picked it up. He unfolded it with his hands and he laughed and shook his head nervously.

Courage

Kurt beamed and placed his hand to his face. Butterflies. He placed a hand on his stomach to try and calm himself. He didn't know why he was feeling this way. Everything about him made his body tingle, every single bit of it. I shouldn't be feeling this way. He had known this man three days. Three days and he was feeling more for him than he did for Elliot after three months. They had never had a single conversation on their own and the ones they had was completely formal and professional. He folded the note back up and placed it in his breast pocket. He smiled again and checked his watch. He had five minuets before his next class. He waited until her heard the knock and he went to the door and smiled wildly.

"Good morning gentleman, please come in. Take a seat."

Kurt had now did four classes this morning. He felt amazing. All the students where warm and welcoming and he enjoyed every minute of it. It was nearly lunch time. He had a knock on his door and he frowned and stood up and made his way to the door and open it.

"I'm sorry to intrude Mr Hummel." Wes said formally smiling. Kurt liked this kid.

"No you're not at all Mr Montgomery."

"I was hoping you maybe able to chat? Maybe in your office?" Wes said looking his gaze.

"Of course. Let me lock up okay? I'll walk with you." Kurt said smiling and Wes nodded. Kurt locked up quickly and held his hand out to his side for Wes to start walking.

"So how has your day been Mr Montgomery? Classes been okay?" Kurt said turning towards him.

"Yes Sir. Not as bearable as yours." Wes said laughing.

"I'm exquisite Mr Montgomery, nothing will ever be bearable again." Kurt smirked and Wes nodded.

"To right Sir."

They got to the office and kurt opened the door and let Wes step forward first. Wes thanked him and walked him and Kurt shut the door and locked it behind them.

"Wow your office is amazing." Wes said looking around. It was extremely modern.

"Thank you. Mr Banks is an absolute gem."

Wes laughed. "He sure is."

"Please take a seat."

Wes nodded and sat down in front of Kurt. Kurt smiled at him and Wes instantly relaxed. Mr Hummel was very comforting. Kurt never said anything. Kurt clasped his hands together in front of him.

"Are you not going to ask me Mr Hummel why I'm here?" Wes questioned.

"Of course not. That'll come in due course time. There is no rush Mr Montgomery." Kurt said politely. Kurt stood up and made his way over to his fridge. "Water or coffee?"

Wes smiled. "Coffee if you don't mind. I didn't sleep much last night."

"Here's your mate." Kurt laughed out and Wes shook his head in amusement. Kurt made the coffee and brought it over to him and placed it in front of him.

"Thank you." Wes said smiling and took a sip. They sat on comfortable silence for a few minutes. Wes was nervous. He knew why he was here but he didn't know why he felt so comfortable and confident to come and see this man.

"I'm conflicted Sir."

Kurt nodded. "Love life?"

Wes laughed nervously. "How did you know?"

"I just know. I know a lot." Kurt smiled and took a sip of his coffee. He watched him struggle. He didn't want too. He didn't want to push either. So he sat there and waited patiently for him to open up.

"I'm in love with someone who doesn't feel the same way."

"How do you know they don't feel the same way? Have you asked them?" Kurt replied back quickly.

"No Sir."

"Then how do you know for certain?" Kurt questioned. Wes bit his lip and nodded.

"I never really though about it that way I just assumed."

"Why? Because he's straight?" Kurt said smiling.

Wes nearly choked and he stared to sputter the coffee everywhere. Kurt stood up and handed him a tissue from the side. Wes thanked him and wiped himself.

"How do you know?" Wes asked with his eyes wide open.

"I just know." Kurt smiled.

"I'm scared I'll loose him." Wes admitted

"Of course you're scared, it's a natural feeling. I'm guessing you're scared because before him you thought your sexual orientation was straight?"

Wes nodded. "How do you know just everything? Your brain is amazing."

"Your body communicates more than you think Mr Montgomery. You can tell a lot by someone's body language. Words do not need to be spoken for me to listen to you."

"Thank you." Wes said sincerely feeling himself getting emotional. He never really opened up. Never mind to someone who he had known five minutes.

"Communication is everything. Speak to him. You might be surprised." Kurt said as he leaned over and placed a hand on his. "My door is always open to you."

"Thank you so much."

Kurt took out a piece of paper and stared to write and handed it over to Wes. "You're fifteen minutes late for your lesson. I don't want you getting into trouble."

Wes smiled and looked down.

To who this may concern, I'm sorry for the inconvenience. Mr Montgomery's presence was with me. Any queries please feel free to get in touch. 12:35pm.

Professor Hummel.

"Professor huh?" Wes looked up shocked.

"I am a professor. I just tend not to use it unless needed." Kurt smirked and Wes grinned.

"Thank you for your time. It was a pleasure." Wes beamed and stood up and shook his hand.

"Always Mr Montgomery."

Wes felt amazing. He felt so much better about everything already. Mr Hummel was a god send. He made his way to the classroom and knocked on the door and entered.

"I'm sorry Mrs Brown." Wes said formally and passed her the note. She read it and smiled.

"That's no problem. Thank you Mr Montgomery, please take Seat." Mrs Brown said politely and Wes took a seat.

"Are you okay? I was worried about you." David said leaning over and placing a hand on his friends.

"I'm more than great." Wes said smiling back.

Kurt had a conference call in twenty minutes. He sighed trying to get the camera to work on his laptop. It was blurry. Oh my god it was working yesterday

Kurt left the room quickly and went to see if any of his students could help him. Made made his way to the common room and knocked and entered.

"I'm really sorry to bother you all." Kurt said breathlessly as he looked round the room.

"Hey Mr H! Is everything okay?" Jeff said worried.

"By any chance any of you are skilled in fixing laptops?" Kurt said as he placed a hand and ran it down his face.

They all smiled and turned to Trent. "I got you bro."

"Bloody hell thank you." Kurt said walking over. "Camera was working yesterday and now it's not. I have a conference call in." Kurt looked at his watch. "Fifteen minutes."

Trent got to work quickly. There was nothing to indicate that anything was wrong with it. The camera was well and truly busted.

"Man it's most definitely the camera. This is a new model too. How long have you had it?"

"Four months, two days, nine minutes." Kurt looked at his watch." Ten minutes."

They all looked up wide eyed. Kurt laughed. "Sorry."

"Can you use one of our laptops?" Blaine asked.

"No, it has to be mine unfortunately." Kurt said rolling his eyes. "Thank you though." kurt stared at him for longer than he should and realised and turned away quickly. blaine had noticed.

"Why don't you connect it to the conference monitor at the front of the room? You just place the port here." Trent pointed to the side of the laptop. "And the camera on the monitor will pick you up. It's amazing quality the only thing is it's attached to the wall so you would have to do it in here and you'll and the others will be projected into that huge projector."

"That's great. I don't mind. You don't mind do you? I may be more than an hour."

"You kidding? By all means. We love hearing you speak and we have never seen you give a lecture before. I can imagine it to be rather sexy." Sebastian smirked and Kurt rolled his eyes.

"Calm down Mr Symthe. I can see the heat radiating from you from over here." Kurt said winking and making his way over with Trent.

"Thank you so much for this. Honestly. I would be lost without you." Kurt said smiling

"Oh It's fine Sir. I really don't mind. It's all set up. You just press your normal buttons and it'll flash up on the projector."

Kurt nodded and thanked him again Trent made his way back to the others.

"Ready to hear Sir give us blue balls?" Sebastian said with a laugh and they all rolled there eyes but they looked up and patiently waited for their teacher to start.
