(Kurt's POV)

It was like a long time dream come true. I, Kurt Hummel, was actually going to be singing a duet with the Finn Hudson. We were in the auditorium for our second day of practice. It was more like our first though, because Finn couldn't focus lately. He just wanted to vent about Quinn.

I don't even know how we became close so fast. After Finn and Quinn broke up, it felt like I was his go-to guy. I felt kind of bad though. After Cori and I had our shopping hang out, I hadn't talked to her too much. I didn't even consult with her before automatically becoming Finn's partner. Actually, I wonder who she wound up with. No, stop it, I'm here with Finn. He needs me, Cori's fine. I don't need to worry about her.

"Hey Kurt?"

"Yes?"

"Um… This is a little awkward for me," He paused for a second. "I've never done a duet with a guy before."

"Oh, Finn," I chuckled. "It's fine. We're not going to be singing some love song to each other or anything." Even though I'd like to, I added in my head.

"Right, sorry."

I shook my head, why was he even apologizing? "It's fine," I had to get a hold of myself. If I wanted to keep this friendship with Finn going, I couldn't make him feel uncomfortable.

I watched him sit down on the stage floor; something about him looked completely off.

"Finn?" I forced myself to sit on the dirty floor next to him, "Is everything okay?"

He sighed, and then spoke, "Cori told me to forget about Quinn; that she was stupid for what she did to me. But it's so hard to get over her, it hurts so much when I see her, yet I still wish we were together."

This was the first time he'd mentioned Cori in the situation. I guess he'd been talking to her about it the whole time. I felt jealousy from them spending so much time together because I wanted to spend more time with Finn, of course, not Cori.

"Well, hope I don't disappoint, but I think Cori's right. It's up to you in the long run, though. Maybe you should sing about it."

"You think that'd really help?" He asked skeptically.

"Yeah, I think it would," I smiled at him. Finn really needed to get over Quinn. She didn't deserve someone as special as him.

"Do you have anything in mind?"

I mentally went through the list of songs on my iPod, weaving out anything dealing with musicals, or songs I just knew Finn wouldn't like. "How about Why by Secondhand Serenade?"

He thought about it a moment before saying, "Yeah, that sounds good."

I nodded.

"So, that'll be our duet then?" He asked.

"Sure, that can be our duet." I was expecting this to just be a song to help him. I was truly surprised he even wanted to sing it with me.

"Awesome," Finn said and got up. He looked at his watch. "Oh, man. The time went by so fast. I have to go."

I slowly got up.

"Sorry, Kurt. Um, we'll practice tomorrow, is that alright?"

"Yeah," I said, wondering where he had to rush off to so fast. I checked my phone for the time as Finn worked his way out of the auditorium. It was only 4:00pm, the time glee would usually let out. Wait, wasn't there something I was missing myself?

I thought for a minute. I would usually drive Cori home after glee, but the past few days she told me she already had a ride.

On my own drive home, I couldn't help thinking about Cori. Who was taking her home? What if she found a new best friend? Or worse, a boyfriend and didn't even tell me? I wondered if he was perfect, if he understood her as well as I do.

I shook my head. I needed to get my thoughts in order, because it was starting to sound like I'd be jealous if Cori had a boyfriend and that can't possibly be true.

"Thanks for the ride home, Finn," I said and got out of his car.

"Anytime, remember?" He winked playfully.

I laughed and shut the door, "Good night, Finn."

"Night," He waved, before pulling out of the driveway.

I chuckled at Finn's actions and walked inside the house. Today had been quite the day. Quinn and I decided to sing Back to December by Taylor Swift. I thought that maybe singing about how she felt would help her with Finn.

My phone started ringing and I saw Kurt's name flash across the screen.

"Hey, I was planning on calling you. What's up?"

"Trying to help Finn get over Quinn."

"I understand. I'm trying to help Quinn get over Finn."

"Wow, you and Quinn are friends now?" Complete surprise filled his voice. I didn't blame him.

"I don't really know what you'd call us. She just started talking to me today."

"I never would have imagined after lunch that one day."

"Same here," I laughed in disbelief.

"So, I take it you guys are doing the duet together."

"Yeah, but it's alright. She doesn't seem so bad," I paused. "Well, not now at least."

"Right, because she was pretty bad."

"Really bad." We both chuckled.

"So, I heard I'm your Spanish tutor now." The idea had completely slipped my mind.

"Yeah, Mr. Schue felt like I needed one."

"It probably wouldn't hurt. Do you want to meet on Tuesdays and Wednesdays after glee?"

"Sounds good."

"Well, I have some homework to get to."

"Same here, see you tomorrow."

"Bye."

I closed my phone and felt my heart swell at the idea of spending more time with Kurt. Before the day dreams could begin, I reminded myself that I really did have homework to do. I said, "Hi" to my mom on the way to my room then started in on the studying.
