Kurt was really starting to get on his nerves. Who did he think he was coming to Dalton and stirring up trouble? Even though Wes loathed to admit it, Kurt's audition did prove he had a phenomenal vocal range. If he would just fall into line, Kurt would be the perfect addition to the Warblers. Wes just didn't understand where all the animosity was coming from. When they caught Kurt spying on them, the boy was respectful and quiet. That Kurt would have easily blended into the ensemble. But the Kurt that had recently been attending Dalton was belligerent, cocky, and rude.
Granted he shouldn't have told Kurt that he had a problem singing girl songs at Regionals. Thad had even suggested Blaine sing a Katy Perry song a couple of minutes later. No, the real problem was Kurt singing a girl's song. Blaine singing Pink was quirky and innovative. Kurt singing Material Girl was in a word – gay. Okay that sounded homophobic even his own head.
Wes prided himself on being politically correct. Being a minority himself he'd experienced the pain of racism growing up. Wes had no idea how bad Kurt's old school was but if it was anything like what Blaine went through it was pretty bad. There was no way he was going to be a party to that kind of thinking. No Wes wasn't a homophobe but his actions didn't really speak for themselves. Maybe he should confront Kurt. Maybe Kurt was just acting out against a perceived prejudice. Maybe after they talked Kurt would be happy to go back to the quiet, respectful member that Wes knew he could be.
Wes spotted the wayward Warbler in the cafeteria. He and Blaine were quietly laughing over some kind of homemade scrap book. "Warbler Kurt, can I have a word with you?"
Kurt immediately stifled a laugh, "Of course Wesley."
Wes hated being called Wesley but he was trying to bury the hatchet so he chose to ignore the name. "It has come to my attention that the conflict that you are having with the Warblers might be due in part to your inaccurate assumption that my comments about your song choice were based on unacceptable societal values."
The arrogant expression that Wes had grown to hate made an appearance on Kurt's face. "Is that your way of trying to tell me you weren't being a raging homophobe when you told me I couldn't sing Madonna at Regionals?"
There was no good way to answer that question. Like the old joke, when did you stop beating your wife. Wes decided to try and ignore the comment. "Kurt everyone of the Warblers is a part of the team a part of a family. We are all accepted. We choose to follow tradition because it has worked in the past. We meant no disrespect to your song choice and we hope you will continue to contribute your ideas in practice." There that should sound humble enough without actually apologizing for something that Wes didn't think he actually needed to apologize for.
"You know, I'm hearing a lot of we, we, we but I'm sensing a lot of me, me, me. If I make you uncomfortable Wesley you should be man enough to admit it."
Oh my god, Kurt was so infuriating. Why couldn't he just accept the apology like any other Warbler would? Why did Kurt have to try and change everything Wes had ever known. Everything was perfectly fine before Kurt decided to come and try and change everything. Instead of responding to Kurt, Wes started to sing.
Mr. Know It All
Well you you think you know it all
But you don't know a thing at all ain't it
Ain't it something y'all
When somebody tells you something about you
Think that they know you more than you do
So you take it down, another pill to swallow
Mr. Bring Me Down
Well you like to bring me down, don't you
But I ain't laying down
Baby I ain't going down
Can't nobody tell me how it's gonna be
Nobody's gonna make a fool out of me
Baby you should know that I lead not follow
Wes was feeling more passion than he'd ever felt in his life. He jumped up on the cafeteria table and several of the Warblers joined in on the chorus.
Oh you think that you know me, know me
that's why I'm leaving you lonely, lonely
'Cause baby you don't know a thing about me
You don't know a thing about me
You ain't got the right to tell me
When and where to go, no right to tell me
Acting like you own me lately
Yeah baby you don't know a thing about me
You don't know a thing about me
Mr. Play Your Games
Only got yourself to blame
When you want me back again
But I ain't falling back again
'Cause I'm living my truth without your lies
Let's be clear baby, this is goodbye
I ain't comin' back tomorrow
Oh you think that you know me, know me
that's why I'm leaving you lonely, lonely
'Cause baby you don't know a thing about me
You don't know a thing about me
You ain't got the right to tell me
When and where, no right to tell me
Acting like you own me lately
Yeah baby you don't know a thing about me
You don't know a thing about me
So what you've got the world at your feet
And you know everything about everything
But you don't
You still think I'm coming back but baby you'll see
Oh you think that you know me, know me
that's why I'm leaving you lonely, lonely
'Cause baby you don't know a thing about me
You don't know a thing about me
You ain't got the right to tell me
When and where, no right to tell me
Acting like you own me lately
Yeah baby you don't know a thing about me
You don't know a thing about me
Mr. Know It All
Well you think you know it all
But you don't know a thing at all
Yeah baby you don't know a thing about me
You don't know a thing about me
As the last notes of the song faded, he heard his phone chime that he'd received a text. Looking at Kurt's smug face, Wes knew what it would be. Wes was really beginning to hate that sound. He looked at the text and found a picture of his precious gavel dressed in an odd leather outfit. The really offensive thing about the picture was what the GI Joe doll was doing to his beloved gavel. Flashing above the disgraceful figures was the word LUST. It looked like a scene straight out of the red light district in Columbus.
A/N: Sorry for the late update on this. My computer was attacked by a virus. I lost two chapters and had a hard time finding the inspiration to rewrite them. I have a new angst fic coming soon as well.
