Senior skip day was arguably the best day of the entire year. The five hour trip to get to Six Flags in Chicago was less than enjoyable for Kurt, but he was with his friends, so it didn't matter. He wished Blaine could have come, but his brother was in town so he couldn't. Kurt had never been on a roller coaster before, so he was a little nervous at first. He'd heard stories of people throwing up on roller coasters and didn't want to become one of them.

When they got to the park all of them agreed to stay together, and voted on where to go first. Kurt wanted to try one of the smaller roller coasters first, but everyone else wanted to start with the biggest one in the park. Kurt wasn't going to be the only one to stand on the side while everyone rode, so he snapped his seatbelt into place without any hesitations. There was no going back. He sat by Sugar, who he didn't know that well. He'd rather throw up on a stranger than someone like Blaine or Finn, so he was okay with it.

Once the ride got started he was a little scared, but he couldn't do anything. The seatbelt was so restricting that he could barely move, much less get off the ride.

"You look scared," Sugar told him. "Do you need to hold my hand?"

"No, thank you," he said. "I'm fine." He was too busy talking to her to notice they were about to go down. Kurt screamed and his stomach dropped. He covered his eyes with his arms and pressed his lips together. They were moving so fast, and it made him feel dizzy to keep his eyes closed, but he didn't dare open them.

After the longest three minutes of his life, they came to a stop. Kurt opened his eyes and realized he'd made it through the ride without throwing up. He smiled, feeling proud as they left to go do another ride. Kurt knew if he could make it through that roller coaster then he could do any of the rides. He was well aware his hair was already messed up, but it was just going to happen again if he tried to fix it.

After two hours, they sat down to eat lunch. Kurt didn't really care what he ate since he'd burned off so many calories walking all over the park. They had three hours left before they had to get back on the bus, so they made a plan to cover everything at least once again. Once everyone was done, Kurt followed them to their next ride.

He wasn't sure if he had eaten something funny, but every ride they did after lunch made Kurt nauseous. The first few were okay, but he nearly got sick on the Batman ride. He was ready to be done and go home. His feet were hurting, he was tired, and just wanted to take a shower. Thankfully, they had made it to the last ride of the day. Finn had convinced him to sit in the front row with him, and Kurt immediately regretted it.

"Finn, I don't think I feel good," he said, breathing heavily.

"It's okay," his stepbrother told him. "We're almost done. Get through this and we're going home." Kurt tried to take deep breaths as they got going, but he knew he was going to be sick. He couldn't turn his head because the seatbelt was over his shoulders. They dropped down a steep hill, went upside down and then came to an abrupt stop before a turn, and Kurt got sick all over himself.

"Aw, dude," Finn sighed. "You couldn't have waited?"

"No," he snapped. The ride got going again and Kurt just leaned his head back, wishing for it to be over. He was sweaty, tired, and now covered in vomit. He as certain it couldn't get any worse than that.

Once they got to a complete stop Finn helped him out of his seat.

"I want to go home," he grumbled, rubbing his eyes. He was exhausted.

"I know, we're leaving. Let's go to the bathroom and get you cleaned up," he suggested. His stepbrother led him down to the restrooms and took him inside. "You might as well throw your vest away. I don't think you got any on your pants." Kurt reluctantly took off his vest. It was his favorite, but he could order another one. It was almost too small for him anyways. He stuffed it in the trash, and Finn handed him a damp paper towel. "Get cleaned up. We gotta go." Kurt cleaned off his face and looked in the mirror. His hair was all over the place. He fixed it the best he could since they were done riding and followed Finn back outside.

Once they were on the bus, Kurt curled up in his seat and closed his eyes. Everyone else was sitting around talking, but he'd had enough for one day. He got his headphones out of his bag and turned on his iPod to pass the time.

"Kurt, wake up bro." Kurt opened his eyes and it was dark, except for the dim lighting on the bus. Finn stood in front of him, shaking his knee.

"Where are we?" he asked sleepily.

"We're back home. Well, we're at school. We gotta drive home. Are you still feeling pukey?" he asked. Kurt shook his head.

"I'm okay, just tired. Can you drive?" Finn smiled and grabbed Kurt's keys from him. He followed him off the bus and slid into the passenger seat.

"Thanks for driving, and helping me when I got sick," he murmured to Finn.

"No problem, little brother."

Author's Notes:

I love writing about Finn helping Kurt out and/or taking care of him. I feel like he's kind of rude in the show, but I like to show his sweet side. Let me know what you thought!

And also I'm trying to get a lot of writing done this weekend, because I will have about no time at all during the next week due to seven finals. So please be patient if I don't post or fill your request right away! After Thursday I will be completely free to write everything I have to.

I'm now off to study photosynthesis. I'm not sure how knowing it will help me out in life, but whatever.
