Hey guys, sorry about the delay (again) but I have been really busy preparing for exams. Anyway here is the next chapter.

The next day it was plain for the rest of the Warblers to see that even at the end of the day in rehearsals that Jeff was seriously done in after the night before. However they were thankful that he and Nick were staying at Dalton and that they were back together and they were happy. Well, excluding Hunter who's crush on the blonde had only increased over the time that he had been in Dalton. While the group were taking a break after rehearsing for what seemed like hours Sebastian came over to have a word with Hunter.

"I thought that you told Blaine and the rest of the council that you weren't remotely bi-curious?" He asked smirk plastered on his face.

"I-I am not bi." He stuttered

"In that case you must have a serious case of the gay" the senior replied

"Shut your face Smythe" Hunter retaliated

" I am trying to help you Clarington. I have been in a similar position to you" Sebastian said, his voice softening slightly.

"You? Who?" Hunter scoffed

"Blaine. Just know that if you want to talk about it then you can come to me." The other boy answered shortly before leaving Hunter alone. Sighing he stood and rejoined the rest of the group as they bickered about their set-list for Sectionals. Again. Near the back of the group Jeff just couldn't concentrate because he hadn't seen Nick all day.

Flashback

When Jeff awoke the next morning he felt very hot. He leaned down to gently kiss his boyfriend and thank him for the best night of his life so far. However his lips didn't connect with brown hair. They connected with the pillow next to the blonde.

"Nick? You in the bathroom?" he called. Nothing. After he had showered and dressed he texted the rest of the guys to see if they had seen Nick. They hadn't. Now Jeff was starting to get really worried.

He was taken out of his thoughts when the door of the Warbler hall opened and before he knew it a brown haired boy had sprinted and had him in a bone crushing hug.

"Where the HELL have you been" Jeff managed to say with what little air his boyfriend had left him with.

"I got in. I got in!" He said looking like an excited puppy. Jeff couldn't help but smile at his boyfriends antics

"Where did you get into?" Wes asked

"Oh... Nothing to special just... NYU Mothafuckers!" He stated and was met by cheers and applause from his Warbler counterparts.

"I am so proud of you Nicky" Jeff whispered into Nick's ear resulting in a small amount of blush beginning to occupy his face.

"So what about you Jeff? where are you going?" David asked.

"NYU as well. Eventually." he replied

"The hell do you mean? Eventually?" Kurt asked incredulously

"I am only a Junior, Kurt. Like Blaine and Hunter. I still have a year to go" he explained. As he said that, he saw Nick's facial expression change dramatically

"oh god Jeffy I am so sorry I shouldn't have come in like that. I should have remembered" Nick said

"don't worry Nick, heck you could be the very handsome man who stops me from getting lost all the time" Jeff replied

"well I have always had the better sense of direction out of the two of us" Nick said with a laugh

"don't ruin the moment" Jeff replied flatly. There was an awkward silence for what seemed like eternity until Thad said:

"Well... We ought to celebrate with Nick. Party tonight here seven. Be there" This was met by a couple of groans from Wes and David. Everyone knew that Thad was able to get strong alcohol really cheap and none of them really wanted to end up getting wasted because they had to focus on their set-list for sectionals. Then on the intercom system the voice of Principle boomed down on the boys:

"Jeff Sterling to the Principle's office"

Everyone looked at the blonde who was trying to work out what might have happened to have him called there in the first place. So he quickly kissed Nick before leaving the boys in a state of confusion.

So what do you think is going to happen? What do you think of the story so far? Will Hunter be able to tell Jeff his feelings? Feel free to PM me or review if you have any answers.

Warning: in the next chapter there is abuse self-harming and maybe a character death.
