Ok, so I wasn't planning on continuing this story. It got little to know alerts, no favorites, and no reviews. I mean, I liked the idea, but if no one else did, than what's the point.
One anonymous reviewer changed that. This one review showed me that people were looking at my story and it made me so happy that I thought I'd add another chapter... I know how I want this story is going to play out so I suppose I may finish it.
Thank you reviewer, for your support.
Jamie is actually an important character to me, so please comment.

Friday after school Jamie aimlessly wandered the halls of McKinley High School looking for his future step brother. Quietly he navigated the hallway nimbly avoiding any oncoming obstacles until he rounded one corner and BANG! He ran into what he thought was a brick wall. But no, it was a big dark man in a McKinley jacket like the one his brother wears.
"What have we here?" The guy said cruelly, lifting Jamie up by the lapels and pushing him harshly into the brick wall, "A middle school student is it? I don't think he knows how to respect his elders does he?" The guy looked behind him for reassurance and his friends grinned and laughed patting him on the back. His eyes turned back to Jamie, "APOLOGIZE!" He shouted, shoving Jamie into the wall again.
"I-I-I'm sorry." Jamie stuttered.
"Now say it like you mean it." He said looking down at the terrified boy.
"Azimio!" A voice shouted, "What the hell do you think you're doing!"
"Finn" Jamie sighed with relief.
"Put my brother on the ground!" Finn demanded.
Azimio dropped Jamie onto the floor and he landed with an "oomph," "You're brother? Really Hudson? Kinda scrawny isn't he?"
"Azimio get the fuck away from here before I kick your ass," Finn said menacingly.
"Whatever gleek," Azimio laughed, then turned to Jamie, "Watch yourself brat."
Jamie sighed again as the jocks walked away, "Thank god."
"What are you doing here Jamie?" Finn asked, helping his little brother up.
"I'm looking for Kurt. Have you seen him?"
"Why are you looking for Kurt?"
Jamie grinned and rocked on his toes in excitement, "He's taking me to see that local theaters rendition of Wicked! I've never actually seen it performed before! I CAN'T WAIT!" He squealed, his voice growing more high pitched with each exclamation.
"Ok ok, relax, I don't need people thinking my ACTUAL brother is gay." Finn said jokingly.
Jamie's eyebrows furrowed, "what do mean?"
As Finn opened his mouth to answer Kurt came over, "Jamie! There you are! I've been looking everywhere!" He grabbed Jamie's hand, "Ready to get your mind blown?" He said with a huge grin.
"YES LET'S GO!" Jamie shouted as Kurt pulled him through the hallways and watched them go.
Finn watched them go. He was starting to think Kurt was a bad influence on Jamie. He alway knew Jamie had his girly tendencies, but he thought that watching football and playing Halo would help to clear his mind; make him more manly. But the more time he spent with Kurt, the more Finn saw the Jamie that he's been trying to ignore. Not that he had a problem with Kurt being the way he was, that he wants to be clear. But he does NOT want his little brother to go through the same crap Kurt goes through everyday of his life. Finn wants to always be there to protect Jamie, but he knows he can't, and he will have to worry so much more if Jamie was... if he was... Finn shook his head, "let's just hope he's not and leave it with that." And he walked away.
That week Kurt changed. It looked pretty ridiculous actually. He was wearing weird clothes and talking and singing in a deeper voice. It was so unlike Kurt that it was scaring everyone, especially Jamie.
Jamie was finally fed up with it. He wanted Kurt back, he really liked Kurt. Finn was an awesome brother and all, but he didn't understand him the way Kurt did.
Flashback
"Kurt?" Jamie said, looking up at the boy as he drove towards the theater, "can I ask you something?"
"Of course, go ahead," Kurt answered, his eyes on the road.
"Um... it's kinda personal... on your part."
"Well then, I'll decide whether i want to answer."
"How did you know you were gay?" he asked.
Kurt jumped a little in his seat, swerving slightly as he gained control of the wheel, "Why do you ask? Do you... you know... like boys?"
Jamie blushed, "No... it's not that... um... do you think straight guys can like ballet?'
"I think straight guys can like whatever they like," Kurt answered, "being gay is not about what you like in that sense... it's more about... what you like... well... how do you say this to a twelve year old... um... sexually?" Kurt finished, his face red as a tomato. He looked down at Jamie who had a light dusting of red on his cheeks as well.
"Oh... I don't think about that stuff... I just thought because I like this stuff..."
"That means nothing." Kurt intervened.
"Ok... thanks Kurt." Jamie smiled softly.
"No problem Jamie, if you need anything... or if you have any questions about this kind of... stuff... just come and ask me... I'm always here."
"Thanks."
End Flashback
Kurt was a role model for Jamie, he NEEDS Kurt to be Kurt. He parked his bike outside the Hummel house and walked in. But was sitting on the couch.
"Oh hi Burt, is Kurt here?" Jamie asked.
"Yeah, he's downstairs," He answered "but I don't know if you want to go down there..." He murmured as an afterthought his face turning red.
"What? Why?"
"He... uh... has a girl." Burt stuttered.
Jamie felt anger well up in his stomach. Kurt CANNOT be in the closet. Jamie NEEDS him to be out and proud. He NEEDS to see that. He doesn't want to feel ashamed of his secret stash of Vogue or his love of theater... or his... he mentally paused and looked at his messenger bag with his pink ballet shoes buried in the bottom.
He turns on his heel and bursts into the basement, "You!" He says, pointing the the blond on top of his brother, "OUT! You!" He points at Kurt, "Up. I want to have a word with you."
Brittany teared up and fled the room and Kurt, red in the face turned to look at Jamie, "WHAT DO YOU THINK..." Kurt started to yell but stopped when he saw tears in Jamie's eyes, "What is it?"
"Why?" Jamie asked, looking at Kurt.
"Why what?" Kurt asked confused.
"Why aren't you being you? You told me... you said... you promised that it was ok... I could be... I could ask... why?" He cried, tears sticking to his cheeks, yellow snot pouring from his nose.
"Oh." Kurt realized looking at the boy. He couldn't do this. Not just because it was wrong for him, but because Jamie, his future brother, but more, his little protege, needed him, "I'm sorry... I just wanted my dad to... he's always with Finn and... here." He finished, handing Jamie a tissue.
"Thanks" he said, blowing his nose, "is that what this is really about... 'cause I don't think that's a big problem... I mean yeah he's doing a ton of 'guy' stuff with Finn... but I'm pretty sure it's just because he wants to bond with us. I mean last night we spent three hours watching reruns of So You Think You Can Dance, I don't really think that's up his alley."
"You did?" Kurt asked.
Jamie nodded, "He just wants to get to know us better... so we can make a good family, you know?"
Kurt nodded, then leaned down and hugged Jamie tightly, "Thank you."
"For what?" Jamie asked, looking up at him.
"For needing me."
Jamie smiled at Kurt and hugged him back, "Hey do you want to watch Billy Elliot? It's my favorite movie."
That was a lot deeper than I expected but I hop you liked it.
Please please please comment. I really love Jamie.
