Gleeva Forever
Chapter 3- Friendship Never Ends?
Blaine closed his locker and looked at the note from Katrina that had arrived for him during first period. He took out the folded piece of paper from the pocket of his cardigan to check it once again. "Hey Blaine! Can you stop by my class room just before you go to lunch? Thanks, Katrina C." Blaine assumed that she wanted to speak to him about a project for Spice Girls week, which he was thrilled was finally happening, and as it was lunch time yet he wasn't particularly hungry he decided that he had nothing to lose.
Blaine knocked on the open door of the empty classroom before he entered. "You wanted to speak to me Ms Chisholm?"
"Hi Blaine! By the way please don't call me Ms Chisholm it's Katrina, Katrina Chisholm or Katrina C." said Katrina cheerfully. She noticed that Blaine was smiling that was good. That was going to make her job a lot easier. "And yeah I did want to speak to you."
"I'm one hundred percent behind Spice Girls week." Blaine blurted out. His occasional paranoid tendencies were emerging once again. He knew that Jake wasn't going to be coming back for the rest of the week and he didn't want to have to face the same fate. Was she going to ask him to leave? Had he not been enthusiastic enough?
"Don't worry I don't doubt that you like the Spice Girls. It was obvious from your reaction yesterday once I wrote Spice Girls on the board. But the fact that you like them is partly why I wanted to speak to you." said Katrina. She was suddenly feeling slightly apprehensive about what she was going to say next. What if he reacted badly? "You were really keen on doing the Spice Girls and got really into the performance of Spice Up Your Life. But when Kitty mentioned friendship never ends you suddenly looked upset. What's up?"
Blaine took a deep breath. He'd hoped no one had noticed. He hadn't been planning to tell anyone not even Sam but perhaps Katrina would be the best person to tell as she would have a neutral point of view so wouldn't judge him. "It's because friendship never ends and yet I was able to destroy one of the best friendships I ever had that mattered the most to me."
She'd been expecting him to say something like that. "But I thought you got on with everyone in Glee club?"
"It's not one of my friendships at McKinley that I ruined. It's my friendship with the Warblers." said Blaine. Katrina had just become the first person he'd admitted that he still cared about the Warblers to. It felt good to finally have said it out loud to another person.
Katrina thought for a moment thanks to her love of show choir she had a good idea of who the Warblers were and also what Blaine's part in their history was. "The Warblers are one of the best Glee clubs in the country. Didn't you used to be on the Warblers? I'm fairly sure I remember you doing a jaw dropping performances of Hey Soul Sister and Raise Your Glass for competitions a few years back."
Blaine blushed at the compliment. Looked like his job of explaining things was going to be a bit easier than he'd thought it would be. "That was me. I also did Candles at a competition that year."
"I didn't like it." said Katrina. She didn't see any point in lying about the fact Candles just wasn't as good and had probably lost them the competition. "Anyway tell me more about your Dalton days and why you ruined your friendship. This type of thing is never going to get to feel any better if you don't talk about it to someone."
Blaine knew where he had to start, where the story began, even if he didn't like to think about it he needed to say it to Katrina. "I transferred to Dalton after I'd got gay bashed out of my old school." That was the hard bit to say out of the way now for the good times. "It was the first time I'd really belonged any where and people loved me for who I was and not who I loved. Dalton helped me to realise again that I wasn't abnormal just because I'm gay and it's also the first place that I really became me. I got into show choir their, I started boxing and I became more confident. I probably would have stayed at Dalton for my junior year but then Kurt, my boyfriend at the time, convinced me that I should transfer to McKinley to spend more time with him."
"You do realise that that isn't a very good reason to transfer schools?" said Katrina.
"I know but I don't regret moving to McKinley. Anyway I still managed to stay in touch with them and invited them to see me perform in West Side Story. I used to text and go out for coffee a lot with all of them particularly Sebastian. But after the accident with the slushie, partly thanks to Kurt pressuring me to, I gradually started to lose touch with all of my old friends. I didn't really want to. Seeing Sebastian saying how wanted to change I should have stuck around and been a better friend. After we got disqualified at Sectionals because of Marley fainting me and Sam tried to find out if we could go to Regionals in any way. That was when we made the steroid accusation." Katrina had been right Blaine did feel a lot better having talked about it with someone.
"But the steroids turned out to be just placebos. You want to get back to being friends with them yet you feel that they can't forgive you because you made the the accusations against. Am I right?" asked Katrina.
Blaine nodded.
"Do you want my advice on what I think that you should do?"
Blaine nodded again.
"You should go back to Dalton. Not permanently because you're over half way through your Senior year so it's not really worth transferring. But you should go just to see them again, and maybe get involved in a song, you should say how you want to be friends with them again. It will either work or it won't but even if it doesn't work then it should at the very least still help you have a bit of closure." adviced Katrina.
Blaine had been hoping she'd say something like that. He'd been wanting to do something like that but had been too scared to do it due to what people might think. "Thanks Katrina C. But what about the New Directions? I'm kind of being a traitor going off to become friends with our biggest rivals."
"First off the Warblers are no longer your rivals. And second if they're good friends then they should let you be friends with whoever you like being around."
Next chapter it's off to Dalton...
How will the Warblers react when they see Blaine again? (I know because I've already written it)
