Author's Note: Thank you all so much for your support. I have gotten so many alerts, some favorites, and even a few reviews. Everytime I get a notification about such things, it makes me smile. So, thanks! I hope you all like this second chapter. There will only be probably two more after this. For those of you that are following my other story "Fallout", I apologize for the delay with chapter 2. The smut is taking some time. Hopefully it will be worth it. Thanks for your patience.

Disclaimer: I do not own Glee or any of its characters. However, I have been promised a Blaine clone...

Kurt woke up the next morning happier than he had in a while. They had a plan to help Blaine, teach the Warblers, and they may even win Regionals to boot. Regionals is not the point of the plan, but it is a happy accident of a side effect. Kurt just hopes that his plan does not backfire.

Walking into school Kurt can't help but smile as he catches sight of Blaine at his locker. He waltzes over, leans against the neighboring locker, and breathes, "Good morning, B. How are you today?" Blaine startles briefly and then lets out a little breath before he says, "G'morning, Kurt. I am ok. How has your morning been so far?" "No complaints," Kurt responds softly.

Blaine closes his locker as he murmurs with a small sweet smile, "That's good to hear."

"Come on," Kurt urges grabbing Blaine's hand, "we should get to Glee before we are late. We are still discussing song selection for Regionals."

Blaine merely nods in response, squeezing Kurt's hand, as he follows him to the choir room.

~ov^vo~

As they enter the choir room, they see everyone sitting quietly in their chairs with small smiles on their faces. General greetings are given as Mr. Schue enters the room a moment later.

"Ok, guys," Mr. Schue starts, "I know you all have opinions regarding songs for Regionals, but…"

Artie cuts him off, "Excuse me, Mr. Schue, but we actually already figured out what we should do."

Blaine looks around the room, brow furrowed in confusion, as he takes in everyone's happy faces. That is, until he gets to Kurt and he notices his slightly guilty looking face.

Blaine leans over to whisper into Kurt's ear, "Umm, Kurt, what is going on? What don't I know? Why was I not part of the song selection discussion? I – I thought – I thought that I was part of the group now." With the last sentence his voice had turned from confused to hurt and lost.

At the tone, Kurt panics, head whipping towards Blaine where he is upset to see tears glimmering in Blaine's eyes. "No, no, no, B. You ARE a part of the team. You are our family. We just wanted to do something nice for you. Surprise you. We met last night and had a discussion about you and Regionals. You weren't invited not because we didn't want to include you, but because we wanted to show you how important you are to us. And, we couldn't stop talking about how wonderful you are the entire time. I promise, B. Please believe me. Please don't be hurt. That wasn't our intention. Please."

Blaine pulls Kurt into his arms and starts rubbing his back cooing, "Shhhh, Kurt. It's ok. I'm not mad. I was a little hurt at first, but you've explained it now, so it's ok. Shhhh. Please relax. Everything is ok. Thank you for wanting to surprise me. I am sorry that I misunderstood. It's just, with everything that has happened…"

Kurt cuts in, "Please don't be sorry, Blaine. You don't have to explain. I understand. I know you. I know how badly you have been feeling about what has been happening and we all are worried about you. We hope our idea for Regionals helps to show you how special you are to us. And, we think that it may show the Warblers how wrong they have been. I know that they seemed to understand that their actions were wrong when we did "Black or White", but they don't seem to have really understood the full extent to which they have been changed. We want to show them that. But, if you don't like the idea, we will think of something different. Just, please, think about it first, ok?" Blaine pecks Kurt lightly on the lips and whispers, "Ok."

"Ummm… can someone tell me what is going on, please?" Mr. Schue asks.

Mike stands up, causing everyone's eyebrows to shoot up as he almost never contributes during Glee Club unless it is to clap for someone or choreograph dance moves for performances. Well, that isn't exactly accurate. Ever since Blaine transferred, Mike had started to become more verbal in practice. Many thought it was due to his fast friendship with Blaine who is very much an excitable puppy when he is feeling like himself, and all were happy to see it. However, Mike has never been one for out of his seat proclamations of group intentions. Shooting a quick smile to Blaine, Mike firmly states, "Mr. Schue, we had a meeting last night to discuss what happened to Blaine and what we could do to show him how much he means to us. Kurt proposed an idea that happened to include song selections for Regionals. We, as a group, discussed the idea and were able to settle on appropriate songs for the circumstances. We hope that you will agree with what we decided, and…" here Mike turned to look at Blaine, "and we hope, Blaine, that this helps to show you how awesome we all think you are."

Mercedes stands up next and adds, "We also think that our song selections will get the point across to the competition that no matter what happens we are a family and love each other. We also hope it teaches everyone a lesson that bullying, especially when it is done for purposes of trying to win a contest, is despicable and not ok."

Quinn joins Mike and Mercedes stating, "Sometimes people can get blinded by the end goal and lose themselves along the way. Sometimes people get hurt in the process. We can't change what happened, but we want to walk away from this as a lesson learned. We don't think the lesson should be that people don't care, because we think that they do. It is just that sometimes people make mistakes and get so lost that they need someone to show them the way back. Like you guys helped me."

Kurt looks over to Blaine to see tears slowly streaking down his face. But, Kurt also sees the little spark in his eyes, the spark that had been almost non-existent since the incident. Just maybe his plan was going to work…

Mr. Schue looks around the room smiling, "So, what songs have you selected, and who is singing what?"
