After jamming out to some classics on the radio, Kurt and Mercedes walked arm in arm to their school. Luckily, there was nobody waiting at the door to slushie them. They picked up their schedules and locker assignments, and then headed to the choir room. Mr. Schuester was already there setting up for the afternoon's glee club. They knocked on the door and peeked their heads in.

"Hi, Mr. Schue!"

"Hi, Kurt! Hi, Mercedes! Are you ready to beat Vocal Adrenaline at Nationals?"

"Yeah Mr. Schue. I was just wondering…" Mercedes walked in the room to show Mr. Schuester her ideas for a new song they could perform. Seeing as Mercedes already told him her ideas in the car, Kurt didn't really feel like listening all over again, so he walked towards his locker. As he started to put his books away, he noticed some more kids start to enter the building. They were mostly freshmen, seeing as all new students had to arrive early to get a feel of the school. The freshmen walked towards another hallway because their lockers were in a different hallway. Kurt noticed a few juniors and a few seniors, but no sophomores. Kurt longed for Mercedes to finish up her conversation with Mr. Schuester because he was getting really bored. As he started whistling some Faith Hill, he noticed someone walk down his hallway. A new student! In my grade! He couldn't really see what the new student looked like because the hallways were so long, but it looked like a boy. Kurt pretended like he didn't notice the new kid and continued to shove things in his locker. As he was setting up his "I Heart Mercedes" sign that she forced him to put up, he heard a "Hi." emit from the other side of this locker door. Kurt looked down and saw a pair of baggy jeans standing at his locker. Definitely a boy. he thought as he decided to close the locker door. As he turned toward the new student, he looked into the most illustrious eyes he'd ever seen. The boy standing in front of him was the dreamiest, cutest, hottest, and handsomest guy he'd ever seen, including Finn. He managed a "hi" and then looked away, blushing.

"Hi! What's your name?" asked the new boy. "I'm Sam. Yeah… so your name is?"

"I'm Kurt. You're new, I presume. Well, this is my second year here, so I can show you around. Let's see what classes we have together. Kurt pulled out his schedule as Sam did as well, and the two boys compared schedules.

"Looks like we have only Science together, but we have the same classes and teachers, so we're bound to learn the same stuff. Just in case either of us need to catch up on homework or something like that," Sam said. He smiled and Kurt couldn't help but smile back. "Listen," Sam continued, "I heard you whistling Faith Hill earlier and I couldn't help but say…" His voice was drowned out by Mercedes' arrival. She had brought her friend, Tina Cohen-Chang along with her.

"Hey, Kurt! Hey…"

"It's Sam. Sam Evans. I'm new here. And you are?"

"I'm Tina and this is Mercedes. We're Kurt's friends from glee club. By the way, you have a huge mouth." Kurt couldn't help but stare over at Sam's mouth. He realized that his mouth was pretty big, but he wouldn't dare side with Tina. Besides. He thought. Maybe he's gay and he likes me! Kurt hoped. He spaced out as Tina and Mercedes talked with Sam, but when Sam looked at him he rejoined the conversation.

"What? I'm sorry. I sorta spaced out."

"It's okay. I do that all the time, especially if someone is talking about the first generation of Pokémon. I mean, the newer generations are so much better, don't you think?" After Sam realized that neither Tina nor Mercedes nor Kurt liked Pokémon, he got back to what he was asking in the first place. "So, is glee club fun, Kurt? Tina and Mercedes have already given me their input, and I want to know what you want to say."

It was the first time that anyone had ever told Kurt that they wanted to hear what he had to say. Sure, he implied that his friends wanted to know what he had to say, but they hadn't ever said it out loud.

"Yeah, I love glee club. You should join, Sam. Just beware of Rachel Berry. She steals everybody's solos, even the boys."

"It's true," said Tina. "Mike told me he actually auditioned for a solo one time, but Rachel stole the solo from him, so he never got to sing in front of us. I want to know what his voice sounds like." By now the hallway was pretty much full and people were starting to head towards their classes. After saying goodbye to Tina and Mercedes, who had P. E. first period, Sam and Kurt walked off toward their classes. Kurt had Spanish while Sam had Language Arts.

"Well, this is it for now, Sam. See you at lunch?"

"Yeah, that'd be great. Thanks, Kurt. You're the best. I'm so glad I ran into you this morning. Oh, and by the way, your whistling was superb. Right on key. If your singing voice is just as good, if not better than your whistling, I can't see why Rachel would want to steal a solo from you. Well, see you at lunch, Kurt!"

"Yeah, see you at lunch." And with that, Kurt Hummel had found his newest crush.
