One day in New York

Brody: Hello…

Rachel: Hello

Santana: Aren't you in the morning?

Brody: Like many people

Santana: Except this morning you took a lot longer than usual

Brody: Yeah, I know, and I apologize. It's just that I was so good in my bed

Santana: Okay… at least have the courage to be honest. What are you hiding?

Brody: Well ...

Kurt: I think I'm starting to understand

Santana: What?

Brody: Yeah, I see you broke me

Rachel: Grilled what?

Santana: It's me, or you didn't listen to anything

Rachel: Sorry, but I'm busy cooking

Kurt: Why are you armed?

Brody: "him and a punch"

Kurt: What the ...

Rachel: Wait a minute. What did you just do there?

Santana: I think she just woke up

Rachel: Why did you hit him? And, why do you have this in hand?

Brody: Alright everyone calm down

Rachel: Tell us why you got this, and why did you hit him?

Brody: I told you to calm down

Kurt: Girls, I suggest you listen to him… he's cocked, and he bangs pretty hard too…

Rachel: You almost knocked him out!

Brody: Usually I don't hit girls. But, if I have to, I wouldn't hesitate to do it

Rachel: It's less reassuring

Brody: Okay, I think like you that you want everything to be okay

Kurt: We don't even know what's going on

Brody: And, for starters, you're all going to lay down what you have in hand

Kurt: I have nothing

Rachel: Me neither

Santana: And I have enough to make you back down

Brody: Come on, put this down. I think you know that, but I'm not a bad guy

Santana: You hit him, and I think you're ready to do it again

Brody: I admit I overreacted, but you are right about one thing. I'm ready to start over if I have to

Kurt: How do I take it?

Brody: Take it right

Kurt: I'm not sure

Brody: Come on, put that down

Santana: What do you want?

Brody: I just need the money, that's all

Rachel: You could have asked us. I could have lent you some

Brody: Well, to be honest, I thought about it. But, I decided to do it differently

Rachel: Look, put this down. I'll lend you some money, and you can solve your money problems

Bordy: Wait

Rachel: What? What's the matter ?

Brody: I inquired about you

Rachel: Great, so what? You just know where it came from. Of course you will also have learned that I am an excellent singer, but I think you already knew that

Brody: Yeah, if you say so

Rachel: So ...

Brody: But I'm not interested in you

Rachel: Ah ...

Brody: It's him

Rachel: I know he's a really good singer too, but he's less than me. Without wanting to be mean

Brody: Yeah, I wanna believe you. But, I don't base myself on who's the best singer

Rachel: I don't understand what you mean

Brody: And ...

Rachel: Great, he doesn't know what to say anymore. Okay, listen, I'm still cooking. You, you will take a walk outside, and you will come back when you are calm, and you know what to say

Brody: Where is he? He was there not even five minutes ago, and I didn't hear the door open

Rachel: I dunno. He might have gone to buy something

Brody: I'm really, really serious

Rachel: Of course you're serious, and that I'm sure is plastic

Brody: Look, I'm about to put one on. So don't get on my nerves

Rachel: You said you didn't hit girls. And then I'm your girlfriend so you can't do that

Brody: Move over, I'll see where he is

Rachel: Don't talk to me like that

Kurt: What are you doing? I've never seen you react so quickly

Santana: I'll keep you safe. I don't know what he's capable of, but I think he's potentially dangerous

Kurt: He's cocked, and strong enough to make me bleed

Santana: So, you stay hidden here, quietly. Me, I'll take care of him

Kurt: Could you bring me some ice, too, please. I didn't dare admit it in front of him, but it hurts from the blow he gave me

Santana: Yeah, I'll bring this back to you

Kurt: Thanks

Santana: Now the two of us

Brody: Where is he?

Santana: You have two seconds to get out of here, before I call the police.

Brody: With what?

Santana: With my ...

Brody: Look, I basically wanted to do this when we were just the two of us. Except, you decided to ask me questions, and you found out everything. Then he asked me a question, I panicked and hit him

Santana: Yeah, I know

Brody: Now things are more complicated. Me, all I wanted was to be nice and make everything go well

Santana: How do you want a kidnapping to go well?

Brody: I was counting on he was going to be alone, and probably terrified, to take him on smoothly. I don't know if you know it, but under the effect of fear, we become more docile

Santana: Of course. And then what are you going to do? Maybe hurt him ?!

Brody: I don't intend to hurt him. In fact, if I have to hurt him, it's only in self-defense. For example, if he decides to fight against me

Santana: What if it's me?

Brody: I said it before, I don't hit girls

Santana: And me, I hit the guys

Brody: Please girls, be rational a bit. You have no chance against me, and you know it very well

Santana: What makes you say that?

Brody: The fact that I am armed, that you hid it somewhere in the apartment, and that you still did not dare to attack me

Santana: You make your conclusions too quickly

Brody: So you're gonna stay here, and I'm gonna search the apartment. The advantage is that there are no walls, so I would quickly go around

Santana: You don't move!

Brody: You won't stop me from moving

Rachel: Wait, come sit down and have a drink

Brody: But, I ...

Rachel: Put that on the table, and we'll chat a bit

Brody: You have your phone in hand ... don't tell me you called the police

Rachel: I would have liked, but there is a network cut

Brody: Great ... at least I wouldn't have a problem

Kurt: What are you doing?

Santana: I take advantage of the fact that she is busy distracting him to come and see how you are

Kurt: I think it could get better

Santana: I don't think he'll let go

Kurt: I think I have an idea, but I think you will not like it

Santana: What?

Kurt: I'll surrender. I have nothing else to do anyway

Santana: What? No, but have you gone completely nuts or what?

Kurt: He won't leave us alone. I'm sure he's ready to come here everyday, even if we tell the police

Santana: No, I won't let you do that

Kurt: And, I'll take a moment of inattention on his part to run away

Santana: What if he takes you somewhere else? What if it hurts you?

Kurt: I think getting hurt is inevitable. I don't know what he's capable of, but I know he is, surely, capable of hurting me. And, for the fact that he will take me, surely, to another place

Santana: There is no way you do that

Kurt: That's the only way he can leave us alone

Santana: He's probably violent, he's armed, and ...

Kurt: I know all of that. Believe me, it doesn't make me happy to do this, and I know I'm sure to be hurt. But, he will get violent towards you if you keep doing what you were doing

Santana: No, you stay here

Kurt: Look, you know she won't be able to distract him for long. There's a time he's gonna search, and he's gonna find me

Santana: I told you to stay here

Kurt: I told you that's the only solution. I don't want him to get violent towards you

Santana: Let him try, and he'll see how it feels to make me angry

Kurt: Unless you want him to come back every day, and try to forcefully grab me again ...

Santana: I don't really know what you mean

Kurt: I prefer it to go well, rather than use force. He said he was going to take it slow, well if I agree to cooperate

Santana: I still can't see

Kurt: I don't want him to grab me by force. If I surrender he won't hurt me

Santana: Are you really determined to do this?

Kurt: Yeah, I'm really determined to do this. And, I will also take this

Santana: What do you want to do with this?

Kurt: You know very well what it's for

Santana: Great. If you keep believing that doing this is the right thing, I'm the one who will tie you up with this

Kurt: What?

Santana: If this is what I have to do to stop you from doing something stupid, I will

Kurt: I'm determined to do this. If I don't, he will come back, and surely come after you

Santana: Ok, I don't think I can change your mind

Kurt: No you can't

Santana: Promise me one thing then

Kurt: What?

Santana: That as soon as you get to a place, any place, you'll escape and let us know.

Kurt: I'll do my best for this

Santana: And, you like me, we know how you react in this kind of situation

Kurt: I'll try to put my panic aside, but I feel like I'm already starting to get nervous

Santana: Okay, you still don't want me to take care of him?

Kurt: No, thanks. I believe it can be okay

Santana: Okay, go ahead

Kurt: Okay

Rachel: You know, for your money problems, we can help you

Brody: Do you know I'm still armed, and I have my gun pointed at you?

Rachel: What do you want me to do to you? A check? Do you want cash? Or, I give you my card and the code with

Brody: I ...

Kurt: When she's scared she talks a lot

Brody: Are you there?

Kurt: For me though, that's a different story

Brody: Where have you been?

Kurt: In my room, I hid

Brody: Why?

Kurt: Technically, it was someone who hid me there. Otherwise I would have stayed there watching the whole scene

Brody: Yeah, why not

Kurt: And, it got me thinking about something

Brody: Yeah, what?

Kurt: I surrender ...

Brody: Are you serious when you say that?

Kurt: Yeah

Rachel: Wait, wait, what's the matter with you?

Santana: Don't try, I've already tried to change his mind, but I didn't succeed

Rachel: Try again. Or, I also try

Santana: No, it's no use. He's really determined to do this

Kurt: And, to prove to you that I'm serious, I give you this

Brody: Your phone, great. And, a roll of scotch, perfect

Kurt: "puts his hands behind his back" Now do what you got to do. I don't move, I don't say anything. And, if you want to knock me out, please do it quickly

Brody: If you don't move, I don't need to knock you out. And then I already did not intend to do it

Kurt: Okay ...

Brody: I admit that I didn't expect this

Kurt: I know you might come back violent if you don't have what you want. And, I was afraid that you would become violent towards them

Brody: Yeah, I think you did well doing that

Kurt: And, I admit, I'm starting to get nervous. I think I would surely have a panic attack at some point, so don't be surprised

Brody: Okay

Kurt: And, I ...

Brody: Wait, I'm gonna ask you not to speak

Kurt: Ok, I understand. It's not pleasant, but go ahead

Brody: I know, but it's like that

Santana: Believe me, it's because he told me not to do anything that I haven't beaten your head yet

Brody: I believe you

Rachel: Where are you taking him?

Brody: Unfortunately, this is private

Santana: You can be sure that the police will be looking for you soon.

Bordy: Yeah, I know

Rachel: I… don't hurt him

Bordy: Don't worry about that. If he doesn't try anything stupid, everything should be fine

Rachel: Okay ...

In Lima

Brody: Well, I think this is a town you know

Kurt: Yeah, I'm from here

Brody: Yeah, that makes sense

Kurt: Look, I ...

Brody: Your little escape attempts? You wanna tell me about it, right?

Kurt: Yeah ...

Brody: To be honest, I thought you weren't going to try anything, since you surrendered. And then I realized that I was wrong

Kurt: I told you I might have panic attacks

Brody: Panic attacks, okay. But, escape attempts, no

Kurt: Well ...

Brody: So now I'm going to be clearer. I decided to be kinda nice, to keep you from being too nervous, and to be more manageable

Kurt: Okay ...

Brody: But, I think maybe I should be stricter

Kurt: You've already been enough. I don't know how long you've been boxing, but you hit pretty hard

Brody: A few years

Kurt: You could have taken it easy, at least

Brody: I was doing whatever it took to keep you from escaping

Kurt: Of course ...

Brody: "the plate against the wall" Are you kidding me ?!

Kurt: Uh… no, why?

Brody: So you're gonna make me happy to shut up and move on

Kurt: Okay ...

Brody: Finally some calm

Kurt: "hit him" Sorry, but I have to go

Brody: What the ...

Kurt: Wait, but I know this street

Brody: Come back!

Kurt: Great, his house

Brody: Where is he?

Kurt: "knock on the door" Please, Blaine, open

Blaine: Yeah ...

Kurt: Please, I need help!

Blaine: What are ... what are you doing here?

Kurt: I'll tell you, but ... not here

Blaine: Are you being sued? Why are you always looking behind you?

Kurt: Please ...

Blaine: Yeah, yeah, come on. Come in

Kurt: Can we… can we go to your room?

Blaine: Yeah sure

Kurt: Thanks…

Blaine: Now tell me what's going on. I thought you were in New York

Kurt: Yeah, I was ... until this morning ...

Blaine: What happened to you? Why are you bleeding?

Kurt: Rachel's boyfriend kidnapped me this morning. And, on the way, I tried to escape, several times, and we fought

Blaine: Why did he do that?

Kurt: I dunno ... all he said was he has money problems

Blaine: Okay ...

Kurt: But actually Santana found out what he was hiding

Blaine: How?

Kurt: I don't know

Blaine: Okay, keep going

Kurt: He threatened them, with a gun, and I was afraid he would turn violent. So I surrendered, to prevent him from attacking them

Blaine: Okay

Kurt: I know it's ridiculous

Blaine: No, no. You have decided not to put them in danger. You just wanted to protect them

Kurt: I know ...

Blaine: But, how did you manage to get here?

Kurt: I think he's hiding somewhere on your street. He actually got me out of the van, took the tape off my mouth, and we walked

Blaine: Then?

Kurt: When we were walking, I realized where we were. Then I hit him and I ran to your door

Blaine: You did well

Kurt: Now I don't know what I can do

Blaine: Already, I think I'll take you to the hospital. I see you hurt so you need some care

Kurt: But, I ...

Blaine: Don't worry, everything is going to be fine

Kurt: You know I don't have a good history with hospitals

Blaine: I know, and I'll be with you the whole time. And then I'll bring you back here, okay?

Kurt: Yeah, okay. But, can I use your phone, please? He took mine from me, and I couldn't get it back

Blaine: Yeah sure

Kurt: Because I promised Santana that I would call her as soon as I managed to escape

Blaine: Here. In the meantime, I'll get you some water

Kurt: Okay, thank you ...

Blaine: Here, drink

Kurt: Yeah ... I ... yeah, I managed to escape ... to Lima, to Blaine's ... he's going to take me to the hospital ... yeah, he couldn't stand me trying to escape ... no, you don't have to come here… no, I don't want her to go nuts… yeah, take her heels away… ok, see you later, girls

Blaine: So ...

Kurt: Thanks…

Blaine: What did she say?

Kurt: Let them come here. I believe in four hours they will be here

Blaine: Why?

Kurt: I don't know. But, I think it's to keep Rachel from going crazy

Blaine Knowing you're gone, yeah, I think she's gone nuts

Kurt: It's mostly because she saw me being taken by him. And, it hurt to see her like that. She held me in her arms for a good five minutes. And I, I couldn't move, let alone speak

Blaine: Okay, that means she didn't take what he did to you very well

Kurt: No, she didn't take well at all

Blaine: Okay, are you ready?

Kurt: Do I really have to go?

Blaine: Maybe I can look, and see what I can do. But, considering everything you've told me, you might have broken ribs. Maybe even your wrist

Kurt: Bad luck I'm right handed

Blaine: So you gotta go

Kurt: But, what if he's still on the street. He parked not far from your house ... he must still be there

Blaine: If he was still here I think he would have tried to get in here already

Kurt: I know ...

Blaine: So don't worry. If he tries something he will have to go through me first

Kurt: He's banging pretty hard…

Blaine: Maybe not as strong as me

Kurt: And, I ...

Blaine: Don't worry, everything is going to be fine. If you want, we can ask the doctor to give you a painkiller. Like that, it will relax you

Kurt: But, if I sleep… you know very well how I work… and, I told him that I might have panic attacks.

Blaine: Yeah, that's okay

Kurt: And now I'm doing my best to try to calm down, to relax. But, I feel like I'm starting to shake ...

Blaine: Yeah, I think a painkiller will do you good

Kurt: Okay ...

Blaine: But, I'll give them my address, so they can meet us here when they arrive

Kurt: They don't know her?

Blaine: Maybe, but I prefer to give it, just for conscience

Kurt: Okay ...

A few hours later

Kurt: Can we go home?

Blaine: Yeah, we're going home

Kurt: I feel tired. Why ?

Blaine: It's because of the painkiller we gave you. Don't worry, the effects will wear off in a few hours

Kurt: Okay ...

Blaine: And, that'll help you sleep

Kurt: Already? But, it is still daylight ...

Blaine: I know, but you need to sleep

Kurt: Okay ...

Blaine: There you go, stay there. Do you want to eat or drink? I think it's been several hours since you ate or drank anything

Kurt: Since this morning, actually

Blaine: What do you want me to do to you?

Kurt: Something simple. This stuff they gave me makes me want to sleep. So don't take your head, otherwise you might find me asleep in your bed

Blaine: Okay

Kurt: You do it fast, okay?

Blaine: I'll be back in five minutes

Kurt: Okay

A few minutes later

Blaine: Here, eat

Kurt: Thanks…

Blaine: Wait, I'll open it. Meanwhile you eat, then try to sleep

Kurt: I don't want to sleep alone ...

Blaine: I'll join you, I promise

Kurt: And, if that's him ...

Blaine: I'll be careful, I promise

Kurt: Okay

Outside

Santana: Is he going to open, or do I have to kick the door down?

Rachel: I had no idea he lived in such a big house.

Santana: It's his parents

Rachel: So don't kick in the door, you risk having your parents on your back

Santana: Okay

Blaine: Yeah

Santana: Finally, you open

Rachel: I'm warning you, she was going to break down the door. I told her not to do it, at the risk of having your parents on her back

Blaine: You're in luck, they've been away on business for a few days, and they don't come back for a month or more.

Rachel: Do you live alone?

Blaine: Yeah, most of the time

Rachel: Looks like he's at your place

Blaine: Yeah

Rachel: And, that you took him to the hospital. Is he still there?

Blaine: No, he's in my room, eating, and hopefully sleeping

Rachel: Is he hurt?

Blaine: Yeah, he's hurt. When he arrived he was bleeding

Rachel: What's his wounds? What do the doctors say?

Blaine: He's got four broken sides, his right wrist is broken too. Luckily, it's a clean fracture, so no need to operate to put it back in place. And also, he has bruises all over his body

Rachel: Okay ... I had no idea he was going to be so violent

Blaine: With rest he should get over it. I was told to come back in a week, to check the progress of her wrist

Rachel: Why? It's serious ? What is he risking?

Blaine: Well, he might have permanent pain, but it will come back every now and then

Rachel: What do you mean?

Blaine: For example, if he uses his wrist too much, it will hurt. And, like I said, it's permanent

Rachel: You said it's a clean fracture, there is no need to operate

Blaine: Yeah, I know. And, I don't know why he will have this. I think I'll know more next week

Rachel: Okay ... but I was so worried about him

Blaine: Yeah, he told me it hurt him to do that. And, that you kept him in your arms for a good five minutes

Rachel: Yeah, that's right, he's right

Blaine: And, he told me he did this to protect you

Santana: That's what he told me too. And, I didn't know he was so stubborn. I tried to get him to change his mind, but I couldn't

Blaine: Yeah, it's true that it's hard to make him change his mind

Santana: And, I saw him start to have tears in his eyes and start to shake, when he left with him

Blaine: He was scared

Santana: Yeah, he said so

Blaine: I still find it brave of him to have done that. But, I still wish he had done something else

Santana: And me, I think I should have beaten her up when I still had time

Rachel: Can we see it?

Blaine: Yeah, if he's not busy sleeping. And, in the hospital, they gave him a painkiller, so don't be surprised if he's a little over the top

Rachel: Yeah, no problem

Blaine: I'll let him know you're here. I don't think surprising him is a good thing

Rachel: Alright

Blaine: Hey, they're here

Kurt: Okay ...

Blaine: It's okay girls you can go home

Rachel: Hey, hi. How are you feeling ?

Kurt: I think it could get better

Santana: How did you manage to run away from him? We know he was violent

Kurt: I hit him, and I ran over here. Since I ran away, I've been lucky he hasn't found me yet

Santana: Do you know where he was going to take you?

Kurt: No idea. But, I think it's somewhere in the street, seeing as he stopped here

Santana: If you want, we'll get it

Kurt: I think he's pissed off now, because of what I did. So I would prefer that you didn't try anything

Santana: He was already pissed off this morning

Kurt: Not really. In fact this morning I found him rather calm

Santana: But, you know I always find what you did crazy?

Kurt: Yeah, I know. But, I didn't want him to get violent

Santana: How many times did you fight?

Kurt: I don't know. But, what he loved to do was push me against a wall. I would say he has done it, at least, a dozen times

Santana: Why?

Kurt: When we left this morning, I was pretty calm. But, I started to get nervous, and I started to struggle

Santana: Okay

Kurt: Now I'm not sure what to do

Santana: Rest, that's what you should do. We were told you were given a painkiller

Kurt: Yeah. It was Blaine who asked me if I wanted to be given one. I said yes, because I know myself. I don't have a very good track record with hospitals

Santana: So go to sleep. We are going to chat a bit downstairs

Kurt: But, I ...

Blaine: Don't worry. I leave the door open. If you ever need anything, give me a call, okay?

Kurt: Okay ...

Blaine: Come on, let's go down. Do you want something to eat or drink?

Santana: No, thank you

Rachel: And, is that me or does he look completely terrified?

Blaine: No, it's not you. Yes he is completely terrified

Rachel: And, he was shaking too

Blaine: Yeah, too

Rachel: What are you gonna do?

Blaine: For now, reassure him and keep him safe

Rachel: What if he knows where he is?

Blaine: I think I'm stronger than him. Maybe not bigger, but surely stronger

Rachel: If I were you, I wouldn't try to fight him. I think you saw what he's capable of

Blaine: Yeah, I realized what he's capable of

Santana: I think if he knew where he was he would be here already, and for a long time

Blaine: Yeah, say like that

Santana: But, at the same time, maybe he's waiting for the right moment to act

Blaine: Sure, too

Santana: Now we just have to wait

Rachel: I swear, when he left ...

Santana: You still haven't digested this?

Rachel: No. When I held him in my arms, I could feel him shaking. And, I took his hands in mine, seeing as he had them tied behind his back. I felt he was trying to hug me too, but he couldn't

Blaine: If he was tied up, that makes sense

Rachel: And that touched me. I could tell he was sad doing this. I saw the fear in her eyes

Blaine: And now he's completely terrified

Rachel: I feel guilty

Blaine: Why? You didn't take it off. And, you didn't hit him

Rachel: I know. But, I think I should have changed his mind too

Blaine: You wouldn't have done it either. When he's determined to do something, he'll do it

Rachel: Alright

Blaine: Okay, I'm gonna go see him again. Although I think his painkiller is starting to work, I don't think leaving it alone is a good idea.

Santana: Yeah, don't leave him alone

Blaine: And me, I let you reign in my house. And, if you don't know where something is, come ask me

Santana: Okay, thank you

Blaine: You're welcome

Kurt: Are they still here?

Blaine: Yeah. Still not sleeping?

Kurt: No… not alone…

Blaine: I know that's why I'm here

Kurt: But, did ...

Blaine: What is it?

Kurt: But, I don't really assume ...

Blaine: You can tell me anything

Kurt: Would you like us to sleep in boxers, please?

Blaine: Of course

Kurt: Thanks…

Blaine: You have to relax, you know?

Kurt: Yes… but…

Blaine: Don't worry. They are at the bottom, and will warn us of the slightest problem. And I, I stay with you

Kurt: Okay ...

Blaine: In the meantime, go to sleep. The tranquilizer you were given should work for a long time

Kurt: Yeah, I want to sleep

Blaine: So, sleep. I'm not moving unless you need something. Or that they come and ask me something

Kurt: Okay ...

Two hours later

Brody: Open up!

Rachel: There's someone at the door. What are we doing ? Do we open it, or do we go get Blaine to open the door?

Blaine: What is this?

Rachel: Obviously it woke you up

Blaine: Yeah…

Rachel: Do you want us to go open the door?

Blaine: Yeah, go ahead

Rachel: Alright

Brody: What are you doing here? I always believed you in New York

Rachel: What the ...

Brody: Obviously, you can't find the words. Great, we're advanced

Rachel: "Hit him" You, I'm not going to pull the skin off your neck to the nearest police station!

Brody: Hey, calm down

Rachel: What you did was unforgivable!

Brody: Don't make me hurt you

Rachel: You've hurt her enough already

Brody: I've never seen you so angry

Rachel: After what you did, don't you think it's okay for me to be mad?

Brody: It's just a little kidnapping

Rachel: You hurt him! He had to go to the hospital! You broke four ribs and his right wrist! Your blows were strong enough to leave marks on his chest!

Brody: Yeah, I knew I was hitting hard

Rachel: And, you're proud of yourself

Brody: Uh ... yeah

Rachel: Do you want me to give you one?

Brody: You know you didn't even hurt me

Rachel: I'm sure you do!

Brody: Okay, I admit I felt it a bit go by, maybe even keep track of it for a day or two. But, I've known worse

Rachel: Of course ...

Brody: You can't knock me out

Rachel: Are you sure about that?

Brody: Please don't wanna hurt you

Rachel: So why did you hurt him?

Brody: I said if I hurt him, it's only in self-defense

Rachel: What do you mean?

Brody: Well, he tried to escape a few times, and he hit me too, a few times. So I defended myself, that's all

Rachel: Of course. He was completely terrified, so how do you want him to try to do that?

Brody: By the fact that he managed to escape. And, that he hit me in a not-so-nice place in the guys' house

Rachel: Well done for you!

Brody: Please calm down, and let me in

Rachel: This is not your place

Brody: And, it's not your place either

Rachel: Since you know he's here, why are you only coming now?

Brody: Well, seeing the place where he hit me, I went into my hideout, to calm it down. And then I also took some equipment with me

Rachel: What material?

Brody: Are you questioning me?

Rachel: I can very well call the police to take care of you

Brody: You have no proof

Rachel: No need

Brody: Better still

Rachel: Tell me what gear you took with you. I'm sure that's what's in your bag that you're trying, as best you can, to hide behind yourself

Brody: It's personal

Rachel: It's not a simple roll of tape like the one he gave you in New York. No, because that is not enough

Brody: Yeah, that's not it. I just took something more solid. Thanks to what I took I'm sure he won't be able to come off

Rachel: Show me

Brody: Yeah, very funny. But, no, I won't show you

Rachel: Come on, open your bag

Brody: I forgot how insistent you are

Rachel: Open your bag, or I'll do it myself

Brody: I told you no!

Rachel: Let go of my hand, you're hurting me!

Brody: So leave my bag alone and let me in

Rachel: No you're not going in

Brody: I don't wanna push you, so back off, please

Rachel: Don't make me hit you

Brody: You can't

Rachel: Of course I do

Blaine: Wait, I'll take over. Meanwhile, go up to my room, to reassure him as best you can

Rachel: Alright, I'm going

Santana: And I stay with you. I also know how to fight

Blaine: What are you doing here?

Brody: I know he's there, so I came to get him

Blaine: You're leaving him alone!

Brody: Look, for now, I still want to be nice. But, I feel that I will quickly get angry

Blaine: Go ahead, get mad. I've been boxing for a few years, and I know how to hurt you. If I feel like I break your arm

Brody: Are you threatening me?

Blaine: It's not a threat, it's a promise

Brody: As a reminder, he was the one who surrendered

Blaine: Yeah, that's right, he told me. But now he's changed his mind

Brody: Of course ...

Blaine: He's completely terrified, and begs me to protect him

Brody: Protect him from what?

Blaine: From you!

Brody: Well, I admit I hit him pretty hard

Blaine: And, I don't know what's holding me back from doing you what you did to her

Brody: The fact that I'm taller and more muscular than you?

Blaine: Yeah, that's it. Do you think you're smart?

Brody: Yeah, why?

Blaine: What's in your bag?

Brody: It's crazy, you're curious

Blaine: Either show me what's in your bag or I call the police, and they'll be looking at what's in your bag

Brody: Definitely, you're an expert in threatening yourself

Blaine: So?

Brody: Do you know I'm armed, at least?

Blaine: And me, I got my fists, I think that's enough as a weapon

Brody: Don't play smart with me

Blaine: You were the one who came here, armed and threatening my friends. And you say I'm playing smart?

Brody: Look, I'm not really a patient. So I advise you to step aside and let me in, you will be nice

Blaine: And me, I recommend you get out and go back to where you came from. And, if I found out that you came back, for whatever reason, I would come find you and make sure you don't bother them again

Brody: Another threat. Better and better

Blaine: So now bye

Brody: Great. Do you think you have authority over me?

Blaine: Yeah

Santana: I feel it's going to end badly

Brody: Are you there too?

Santana: Yeah. And, if he decides to fight you, I'd love to help him

Brody: Sure of that?

Santana: Yeah, very sure even

Blaine: Think for a second

Brody: What?

Blaine: You're outnumbered. We're three to one, so do you really think there is something you can do?

Brody: And me, I'm armed. So I think I still have the advantage

Blaine: Of course ...

Kurt: Wait…

Blaine: What are you doing here?

Santana: If you're still thinking about doing what you did in New York, I'll tell you right now, don't even think about it

Kurt: I just wanna talk…

Brody: From what?

Kurt: Maybe we can find an arrangement

Brody: An arrangement? I need some money, so I do what it takes to get some

Kurt: We're not going to argue outside

Blaine: Okay, come back. But, we stay with you, and you leave everything you have on you at the entrance

Brody: I ...

Blaine: It's either that or I'll kick you out

Brody: Alright, alright

Blaine: It's over there

Brody: Now tell me what you want

Kurt: I told you, make a deal

Brody: Yet you surrendered. So why have you changed your mind now?

Kurt: I told you I was prone to panic attacks

Brody: Yeah, I know

Kurt: And you weren't doing anything that reassured me

Brody: What do you mean?

Kurt: Keeping me always tied, tape over my mouth, and most of the time blindfolded, admits that it's not really reassuring.

Brody: Yeah, I know. But, I didn't wanna take a risk

Kurt: And, when I moved a little too much, all you could do was push me against a wall, and forcefully

Brody: Yeah, too. But, I don't see where you are coming from

Kurt: All of this put together made me start to panic. All I thought about was finding a way to escape, to avoid your violence

Brody: So in my defense, if I hit you, it's because you attacked me. If you hadn't attacked me, I wouldn't have hit you

Kurt: Just keeping me pressed against a wall, I consider that to be violent. I'm sure that's how you broke four ribs

Brody: Okay, if you say so

Kurt: And then all the punches you gave me. One thing I can say is that you are aiming well. And that you hit hard too

Brody: You too hurt me

Kurt: It was the only way I could find that I could get away fast enough

Blaine: And then, if that keeps you from reproducing yourself, that's fine too

Brody: Does he like to say that sort of thing?

Kurt: He's mad at you, and I understand that. If the tables had been reversed, I would have reacted in exactly the same way

Brody: Okay, but he doesn't have to look at me like he's going to kill me. And neither do they

Blaine: It's because I think so

Santana: Me too

Rachel: Too bad I didn't take my best heels, because I would have stuck them in where I've been thinking for a long time

Brody: Great… I think I should have taken some defense with me

Blaine: Keep up with what you said

Brody: So you said you wanted to make a deal

Kurt: Yeah, that's it

Brody: Which one?

Kurt: One that would allow me not to be your prisoner, to begin with

Brody: I suspected it

Kurt: So ...

Brody: What else do you want me to do? To find money

Kurt: I don't know. Find a job, maybe?

Brody: A job doesn't pay a lot

Kurt: Sell some of your items? I'm sure you got some valuable stuff in your house

Brody: Not really

Kurt: Finally, find something where I'm not a prisoner

Brody: Look, all I wanted was to ask for a ransom, nothing could be simpler

Kurt: It's not easy

Brody: I know I hurt you, I can see you hurt

Kurt: Okay ...

Brody: But I promise it will be over soon

Kurt: For you. But, the person who pays you won't be ready to let me go

Brody: Yeah, say it like that. But, maybe you can escape. You did well with me

Kurt: Unless you find someone who'll let me go as soon as he pays you, I don't think keeping me prisoner is a good idea.

Brody: That's all I found

Kurt: Don't you have something else?

Brody: No, so ...

Blaine: You lower your tone!

Brody: What is it?

Blaine: I remind you that we are three on one, so I advise you to be quiet

Brody: And, I'm ...

Blaine: Armed? You don't have your guns with you

Brody: Because you forced me to leave them in the hall

Blaine: To keep you from going after him

Brody: He decided to talk to me. And, it was he who also decided to surrender

Blaine: Because he wanted to protect them

Brody: Protect them from what?

Blaine: He was afraid you would get violent towards her!

Brody: I'm not violent

Blaine: Yes, you are

Brody: Okay, I hurt him. But, that doesn't make me violent

Blaine: Of course ...

Kurt: I ...

Blaine: Okay, we'll cut this discussion short

Brody: What?

Blaine: I'm gonna be nice again by letting you go. But, if you ever come back, whether it's here or New York, I'll make sure you go to jail and stay there as long as possible

Brody: What the ...

Blaine: So now get out!

Brody: Alright, alright

Blaine: And, don't forget your things when you leave

Brody: I know

Blaine: Now this guy

Rachel: How can you send him to jail?

Blaine: With help from my parents

Rachel: But, they're not here. And, you told us they're coming back in a few months

Blaine: Yeah, but I have a phone too

Rachel: And, I also understand that your relationship with your parents is not in good shape.

Blaine: Okay, I don't have a good relationship with my dad, but it's still okay. But, I get along very well with my mother

Rachel: So what?

Blaine: My mom is a lawyer, and my dad is a lawyer too

Rachel: Are you not a lawyer?

Blaine: No I'm not interested in law

Santana: Come to the point, please

Blaine: I can arrange to send him to jail and for a long time. We have all the evidence it takes to send him to jail

Santana: And, are you a man of your word?

Blaine: Normally, yes. But now it's way too serious for me to let this go

Kurt: But, what if he finds out

Blaine: Don't worry, honey. I will make sure he can't come and get you

Kurt: But, you scared him. I don't think he's likely to come back

Blaine: Better safe than sorry

Santana: There is no way we let him get away with this.

Blaine: Excuse me for a minute?

Santana: Yeah, go ahead

Blaine: Come on, let's go upstairs

Kurt: Okay ...

Blaine: Come on, lay down

Kurt: I don't think I could sleep

Blaine: Before I left the hospital, the doctor gave me a box. These are the painkillers they gave you. If you want you can take one

Kurt: No, I'll try without

Blaine: Do you want to eat something? Since you've been here, you haven't eaten much

Kurt: No, thanks. I would eat later

Blaine: Okay, but I'll still get you some water

Kurt: Okay ...

Blaine: And, you gotta sleep

Kurt: I know, but ...

Blaine: I know. I will be back, but I have to discuss first

Kurt: How long?

Blaine: I don't know

Kurt: But, I ...

Blaine: I'm leaving the door open. If you need me, call me. Or, you come to get me

Kurt: Okay ...

Blaine: "kiss him" It's okay, he's gone. As long as you're here you don't risk anything

Kurt: But, I'm scared ...

Blaine: If he wants to hurt you again, he'll have to go through me

Kurt: Okay ...

Blaine: I'm coming back. Meanwhile you try to sleep

Kurt: Yeah ...

Santana: So?

Blaine: I don't think he can sleep

Santana: After all he's heard, it's okay

Blaine: I think you know that, but he's completely terrified

Rachel: Yeah. He didn't even dare to look at it, and I think he was looking for his words too

Blaine: And again, you didn't see him when he was in the bedroom

Rachel: What? What did he do ?

Blaine: He clung to me and refused to let go. He was shaking, really looked on the verge of tears, and tried to hide as best he could

Rachel: The next time I see Brody, I swear I ...

Blaine: Leave it. I think the police will be happy to take care of him

Rachel: Yeah

Santana: Unless he's already been back to New York

Blaine: I clearly heard him say he has a house here

Rachel: Me too

Blaine: Do you know his address in New York?

Rachel: Yeah, wait, I'll write it down. But, just why?

Blaine: Because I think the police might need it. On the other hand, I do not know the one who is here

Rachel: You have to ask him

Blaine: Right now, I'd rather let him rest and not cause him more stress than that

Rachel: Yeah, good idea

Santana: Wait, did you take pictures of his injuries?

Blaine: Yeah, I thought about it, in case I decide to contact the police. I see I was right to do it

Santana: What are you going to do here?

Blaine: Call my mom, explain the situation to her, and ask her what I can do

Santana: She will tell you to call the police

Blaine: Yeah, I know. But, I'm going to ask him what I have to say exactly. And also, to come as quickly as possible

Santana: And, where is it?

Blaine: In California, I think

Santana: Fortunately you have a good relationship with her

Blaine: Yeah

Santana: Are you going to call now?

Blaine: Yeah, why?

Santana: No, for nothing

Blaine: I'll be back in five minutes

Santana: Okay

Five minutes later

Santana: So? What did she say ?

Blaine: She told me to call the police, and give them all the evidence I have

Rachel: So you gotta go, right?

Blaine: If I gotta give them the proof, yeah I gotta go

Rachel: And that's not a good idea

Blaine: Well, I explained his condition to her, and she told me leaving him alone is not a good idea

Santana: You told us that your mother is a lawyer. So I know she said that logically, but it really looked like she knew what she was talking about

Blaine: Yeah, that's right. But before that, she studied psychology. Many say she's an expert on human behavior

Santana: In other words, there is no point in trying to lie with her, since she would see it directly

Blaine: Yeah, there you go

Santana: Well, family life must have been great

Blaine: When they were there, yeah, it was okay. But hey, as they are not often there ...

Santana: So what else did she say? Apart from going to the police and not leaving him alone

Blaine: She's taking the first plane to come here. In the meantime, I have to go already. She sent me a diagram of a file that I can make to give to the police

Rachel: What's next?

Blaine: When I do that I have to come back here and make sure he's okay. I have to feed him and drink, leave him in a quiet place where he feels safe. And, in fact, I have to do nothing that might rush him, and I have to do whatever he wants, if it makes him feel safe

Rachel: And, did you tell her we're here?

Blaine: Yeah, why?

Rachel: What did she say? Do we have to go?

Blaine: No, you don't have to go. And, in fact, I was going to come to what she said about you

Rachel: What? What did she say ?

Blaine: That you'll have to stay with him while I do what I have to do

Rachel: Okay, no problem. Besides, I'm going right away

Blaine: Wait, I haven't finished

Rachel: What else?

Blaine: She gave me a specific list of what to do, what to do, and what not to do

Rachel: Okay. Why ?

Blaine: To prevent you from doing something that might cause him to have a panic attack.

Santana: Did you explain to him how he is?

Blaine: Yeah

Santana: And, what did she say?

Blaine: It's normal that he's like this. The good thing is that he doesn't have post-traumatic stress

Santana: Sure?

Blaine: That's what she told me, but she's not really sure about it. To find out she needs to see it

Santana: Okay, keep going

Blaine: So she also told me that almost any noise or whatever can scare him. So he should stay somewhere quiet, and where he feels safe

Santana: Yeah, that makes sense

Rachel: Has he eaten? I know he ate this morning, but I don't know if he has eaten since he got here

Blaine: No, not yet. He told me he wasn't hungry, but I know he needs to eat

Rachel: I'm gonna cook him something. Do you allow me to use your kitchen?

Blaine: Yeah, go ahead. Me, I'm going to go see him, explain the situation to him and tell him that you are busy cooking him

Rachel: Yeah, go ahead

Santana: And me, I'll make sure she doesn't burn your kitchen

Blaine: Yeah, cause I care about my house

Santana: I also believe

In the bedroom

Blaine: Hey, I came back

Kurt: Hi…

Blaine: I hope I didn't wake you up

Kurt: No, I wasn't sleeping

Blaine: Can't you sleep?

Kurt: No… I don't want to be alone…

Blaine: Exactly, I came to talk to you about something

Kurt: What is it?

Blaine: I'm gonna go to the police, get this guy arrested

Kurt: But, I ... if he knows ...

Blaine: I will make sure he gets arrested right away and doesn't come out until the trial. Not even on bail

Kurt: But, am I going to be alone? I don't want to be alone ...

Blaine: I wouldn't be gone for long. I would say two hours maximum

Kurt: But the police will never believe you ... I'm sure he has his contacts

Blaine: Me too, I have mine

Kurt: What?

Blaine: I called my mom. She told me what to say, and she's coming here too. She told me she's taking the first plane to come here

Kurt: Why is she coming?

Blaine: To see how you're doing. Before becoming a lawyer, she took psychology lessons. She can tell me what to do to make you feel good

Kurt: Okay ...

Blaine: But, she already told me what I can do

Kurt: What did she tell you?

Blaine: That you have to eat and drink and stay somewhere that is quiet and where you feel safe

Kurt: Here ... I stay here

Blaine: Of course. I don't intend to make you move

Kurt: And, I'm hungry now

Blaine: Rachel is cooking you food. She didn't tell me what, but I think she's doing something you like

Kurt: I don't want you to go ...

Blaine: I'll do it as fast as I can. But, I can't let this guy get away with it

Kurt: But, I don't want to be alone ...

Blaine: They'll stay with you, you won't be alone

Kurt: But ...

Blaine: I'll tell them what to do if you ever have a panic attack. You don't have to worry, okay? You know very well that I would never leave you alone with someone who is not to be trusted

Kurt: I know ...

Blaine: "hug him" You don't have to worry

Kurt: Okay ...

Rachel: It's okay, here I am

Blaine: What did you do?

Rachel: I did something pretty simple. But, I think you should like

Santana: I reassure you, your kitchen still exists

Blaine: Okay

Rachel: Come on, eat. You have to gain strength

Kurt: I don't have much strength, so I don't think eating could make a difference.

Rachel: You know it's been several hours since you ate anything

Kurt: I know… are you going to go yet?

Blaine: Yeah, but I promise I'll be back soon

Kurt: How long?

Blaine: I hope for a maximum of two hours, maybe more

Kurt: It's way too long ...

Blaine: Don't worry. You're not alone

Kurt: I know

Blaine: And, I want you to do something for me while I'm at the police

Kurt: What?

Blaine: That you're trying to sleep. If you can't, you can take the painkiller you were given. I think it can help you

Kurt: Okay ...

Blaine: But only one

Kurt: Why is that one?

Blaine: Because otherwise it will be too much

Kurt: Okay ...

Blaine: Now sleep my love

Kurt: I know

Blaine: Stay with him, please

Santana: Yeah, sure

Rachel: You weren't lying when you said he was hanging on to you and refusing to let go

Blaine: Yeah, I don't see why I would have lied

Rachel: I didn't say you lied. It's just that I didn't think it would be that much. I felt like he was going to rip your shirt so tight he held it

Blaine: Yeah, I know

Rachel: He's really terrified

Blaine: Yeah, that's okay

Rachel: Yet when he was chatting with Brody, he didn't seem to be afraid. In fact, I even had the impression that he was quite confident

Blaine: He was hiding it. Except that I saw it

Rachel: What did you see?

Blaine: That he was scared. I saw his hands shaking, like the rest of his body elsewhere. Often he hesitated on his words

Rachel: Why was he hiding from him that he was afraid?

Blaine: Because he didn't want him to see that he was scared. He sure wanted to be confident in himself, to try to be right about him

Rachel: And it didn't work out

Blaine: No

Rachel: Okay, well, go ahead. But, what do we do while you're gone?

Blaine: Make sure he's not panicking

Rachel: What do you mean?

Blaine: Well, don't rush him, don't yell, don't argue in front of him. In other words, just calm

Rachel: Alright

Blaine: I gave him a painkiller so he should be busy sleeping. But, I know he's so stressed that I don't know if he'll work for long.

Rachel: Ok

Blaine: Also, he's prone to panic attacks and nightmares

Rachel: What do we do if he has any?

Blaine: If he's having a panic attack, usually you only need one person with him, everyone else in the room has to come out. Then you have to calm him down, reassure him. If he gets hooked on either of you, let him. This is one of his techniques for trying to calm down

Rachel: Yeah, okay

Blaine: Then you have to talk to him calmly, and especially have a lot of patience

Rachel: Why?

Blaine: Because it might take a while

Rachel: What if he's still shaking?

Blaine: A lot of times he trembles because he's scared. In this case, cover him and stay close to him

Rachel: Okay. What if he's having a nightmare?

Blaine: Well we have to wake him up and do what I just said too

Rachel: Okay. And, should we give him a drink?

Blaine: Yeah, why not. I think it can help

Rachel: It's noted

Blaine: And, if you ever can calm him down, call me. I know that even on the phone I can calm him down

Rachel: Ok. I think we can handle this without too much problem

Blaine: I'd rather tell you everything though, because no one has ever been able to calm him down except me

Rachel: Not even her dad

Blaine: Rarely

Rachel: So if it turns out we won't make it either

Blaine: If you keep calm I think you'll be able to calm him down a bit

Rachel: What if he clings to us and refuses to let go?

Blaine: Well, I hope for you that you have patience

Rachel: Yeah, why?

Blaine: Because he will stay there, until I come back

Rachel: And, why is he doing that?

Blaine: To make sure the person doesn't leave. And also, to try to hide

Rachel: What if he falls asleep?

Blaine: What if he falls asleep hanging on to you?

Rachel: Yeah

Blaine: Well you fall asleep with him

Rachel: Alright

Blaine: Do you still have questions?

Rachel: No, for now I think I have what I need

Blaine: Okay. If you ever have any questions, call me. And also if my mother arrives

Rachel: Alright

Blaine: Because I know her. I know she's going to land suddenly, unexpectedly

Rachel: And, if she's here and you haven't come home yet, what do I tell her?

Blaine: Start by saying hello

Rachel: Yeah, thanks, I know. But after ?

Blaine: Well, you tell him to wait. She knows she must be waiting for me

Rachel: Why?

Blaine: Because she doesn't want to cause him stress. He likes you, I think you know that?

Rachel: Yeah, we know he likes us. We're his friends and he lives with us, so I think that makes sense. And then, we've known him longer than you

Blaine: There you go

Rachel: But, he seems to trust you more than us

Blaine: I know

Rachel: But, why?

Blaine: I don't know

Rachel: So when your mom is here we gotta get out of the bedroom

Blaine: When she looks at how he's doing. Because, you don't need a lot of people. She explained to me that the more people there are, the more it will stress her

Rachel: Yeah, that makes sense too

Blaine: And, seeing how stressed he is now, don't increase his stress

Rachel: And, how long will it take for him to be stressed out?

Blaine: I dunno. When he is sure he will risk nothing more, I would say

Rachel: In a long time

Blaine: Possible

Rachel: Go ahead, I won't hold you any longer

Blaine: Okay

Several hours later

Rachel: So when you got home you didn't have time to explain to us what the police told you

Blaine: When I told you that my mother often shows up without warning

Santana: And, where did she go?

Blaine: She went back to her job, which is the law firm where they both work

Santana: Why?

Blaine: To work on the Brody case, to make sure he dives and for a long time

Santana: And, do you think she's afraid to win?

Blaine: I hope so. She told me that the case against him is pretty solid, so we're very lucky. But, we must not make hasty conclusions

Santana: Okay

Rachel: What did the police tell you?

Blaine: That they were going to start the search, to arrest him and jail him until the time of his trial. They'll let me know when he's arrested

Rachel: Okay. But, it may take a while

Blaine: Yeah, long enough to find his address here. But, I gave them the one from New York

Rachel: Do you think he's gone back?

Blaine: I dunno, but it is possible. Right now I have more to think about than where he is hiding

Rachel: Yeah. What did your mother say? How is he doing ?

Blaine: Physically, he's recovering well. Well, he's still in pain, but in a few weeks it should be fine

Rachel: Okay, what else?

Blaine: She told me she didn't think he had post-traumatic stress disorder, but ...

Rachel: He has one, right?

Blaine: Yeah, but a slight one. She told me that with rest, calm should be fine. But, that it would take, anyway, from a few weeks to a few months to disappear

Rachel: Okay… how are we gonna do when he gets back to New York?

Blaine: Right now, he's not ready to go home. But, I think he'll still be around when he gets back to New York

Rachel: What do we have to do?

Blaine: Keep it in a quiet place and avoid overwork.

Santana: In other words, calm and rest, nothing could be simpler

Blaine: Yeah. But, he's gonna be prone to panic attacks and nightmares for a while

Santana: So he won't sleep much

Blaine: No, but it shouldn't last long

Rachel: Right now he's staying with you

Blaine: Yeah, for about a month. When he feels a little less stressed, we'll talk about whether he wants to come home or not

Santana: Maybe we'll wait until he's in jail

Blaine: I've thought about it, and I'm going to talk to him about it, but tomorrow

Santana: Okay

Rachel: What else did she tell you?

Blaine: Other than what I just told you, nothing else

Rachel: Shouldn't he see a psychologist?

Blaine: She told me that as long as he confides in me, he doesn't need it. Yes, what happened to him left a mark on him, even traumatized him. But, he tells me if he's scared or he doesn't feel well

Rachel: At least that's reassuring

Blaine: Yeah. Now it's my turn to ask you questions

Rachel: Come on, let's listen to you

Blaine: How was it while I was gone?

Rachel: Pretty good

Blaine: What are you hiding from me?

Rachel: Nothing

Blaine: You know, I'm not gonna be mad at you if you tell me he had a panic attack. All I want to know is how it happened

Rachel: Yeah, he does and several. I didn't know that there were often cars passing in your street

Blaine: It's a street, there are people living there and they have cars, so that's okay

Rachel: I should have specified sports cars, which have a big engine that makes a lot of noise

Blaine: Yeah, it's true that there are a few that hang around every now and then

Rachel: Alright

Blaine: So how did it go?

Rachel: At first he was calm. He ate and we chatted a bit

Blaine: So far, it's okay. Then?

Rachel: And then one of the cars I told you about passed by and made a lot of noise. And you told us she needs a lot of quiet and no noise

Blaine: Yeah, that's right

Rachel: And suddenly he screamed and he had tears in his eyes. But, really suddenly. And, it grabbed me, because I wasn't expecting it

Blaine: Go on

Rachel: He clung to Santana

Blaine: Okay

Santana: I took him out, and tried to calm him down

Blaine: Did you do it?

Santana: Yeah, it took a while, but yeah, I did it

Blaine: Go on

Santana: Then when he was calm, he still didn't let go

Blaine: Yeah, that's okay

Santana: And then he fell asleep on me, and I didn't have the heart to wake him up

Blaine: You did well. He needs to rest. Did he eat everything you gave him?

Rachel: Yeah. He was hungry

Blaine: How long did the painkiller he took worked for?

Rachel: About an hour or so. I haven't really watched

Blaine: Okay. How long has he slept?

Santana: Two hours, I think, maybe more

Blaine: On you? Or did he move while he was sleeping?

Santana: On me. And, he has a lot of strength

Blaine: Yeah, I know. Looks not like that, but he really has a lot of strength. Especially when he's scared and he's holding on to someone with the intention of never letting go

Santana: It's not hands he has, it's pressure grippers

Blaine: I know

Santana: He's waiting for you. Go see it. We are going home. If you need us, call us

Blaine: Ok

In the bedroom

Blaine: Hey, how are you feeling?

Kurt: Still so bad ... and still so scared ...

Blaine: Do you want me to give you painkillers?

Kurt: No, they didn't work ...

Blaine: Okay

Kurt: Come to bed with me ... please ...

Blaine: Yeah sure, sweetheart. You need to sleep

Kurt: But, I don't want to take those painkillers again… it makes me feel weird…

Blaine: Okay, you don't have to take them

Kurt: I just want to fall asleep in your arms ... because it relaxes me ...

Blaine: They told me you had a panic attack, from a car driving down the street

Kurt: Yeah… it really made a lot of noise… I clung to Santana… I didn't want to let her go anymore…

Blaine: Yeah, and she found your strength

Kurt: Do you want to…

Blaine: Yeah, I'll change quickly. And also, look for something to heal your wounds. Because it's been a few hours since you got home from the hospital, and logically, we have to change the bandages every four hours

Kurt: Rachel asked me if she wanted her to do it, but I didn't want ... I didn't want her to touch my wounds ... you can do it ...

Blaine: Okay, calm down. I'll take care of that. But, for that, you have to relax, okay?

Kurt: Hurry, please… I'm really, really tired…

Blaine: Don't worry, it's gonna go fast

Kurt: Okay ...

30 minutes later

Blaine: There you go, it's over

Kurt: It's true that it went fast

Blaine: Now we can sleep. But first, do you still want to eat something?

Kurt: No, thank you… I'm so stressed… I don't really have an appetite… I think it should be better tomorrow…

Blaine: Okay

Kurt: I hope I get through the night without having nightmares… and that tomorrow… I won't shake anymore…

Blaine: Relax, my love. It's normal for you to tremble and have nightmares. You are traumatized because of what happened to you. So don't worry about that, okay? Just try to sleep

Kurt: Okay ...

Blaine: "Kiss him" It's gonna be alright. Also, don't stop touching or kissing me. I know when under stress you need physical contact. So, don't hesitate. We're in our midst, so don't worry about how people react. Besides, the same if we are ever in public

Kurt: Ok…

Blaine: "hold him tight" Sleep, sweetheart

Kurt: Thank you ... you too, honey
