A/N: Hey guys! Sorry it's taken me a little longer to update, I had a lot more work to do than I had expected. Again, thank you all so much for your reviews on here and on Twitter, they always make me smile! Please keep them coming!

I hope this chapter makes up for the slight delay.

Blaine spent the entire weekend on cloud nine after his conversation with Kurt on Saturday. It probably sounds stupid considering it was only a small exchange between the two, but to Blaine, it was amazing. He'd never thought he'd ever say two words to the boy, let alone a full on conversation with him. Blaine never thought he'd actually get the privilege to hear Kurt say his name, but he did and it sounded perfect.

On Monday, much to Blaine's disappointment, he didn't have any classes with Kurt. But at least he had Glee Club to look forward to, right? Speaking of which, he didn't exactly know how to drop the bomb on his friends and tell them he's a part of it now.

"Dude, where're you going? The parking lot's this way," Puck exclaimed, pointing behind him. Yes, I know, you idiot, he mentally threw back at Puck. I guess it's now or never.

"Yeah, I know. I'm, um, not going home yet," Blaine informed, hoping that would be enough and they'd just let it go and carry on. Apparently luck isn't on his side today.

"What? Why?" Puck asked making his was over to Blaine with Karofsky and co. behind.

"I, um… I have to go do… stuff." 'Stuff' Blaine, seriously?! He scolded himself.

"What kind of stuff?"

Please, just go away! "I'm kind of, um… I'm sort of… I, um…"

"Just spit it out!" Santana cried, tapping her foot impatiently.

"I'm going to Glee Club." There, he said it. He nervously glanced at his friends faces, whose jaws were currently occupying the floor.

"You're joking, right?" Blaine stayed silent and suddenly became incredibly interested in his shoes. "Right, Anderson?" Puck pushed with a hard tone.

"Um… no…"

"You've joined homo explosion?! What the hell, man?!" Karofsky virtually screamed at him and unfortunately caught the attention of nearby students.

Just play it cool Anderson, play it cool. "No! I'm not going because I want to! Figgins' is making me go as part of my stupid punishment." Blaine yelled over the curious whispers, hoping it was convincing enough.

"Oh. Well, I guess that's okay then." Oh, thank god! "But why's he making you join Glee Club as a punishment?" Puck queried.

"I don't know. Something about Schuester needing more members," Blaine replied, keeping his voice relatively calm.

"Okay, whatever. See you tomorrow, Anderson." Puck said, thankfully, and turned to leave. The rest followed but Mike looked at Blaine with a small smile on his face. Before turning, he mouthed: 'Have fun' to Blaine, knowing that Blaine has always wanted to join anyway. He smiled at Mike, giving him a slight nod before turning in the direction of the choir room.

After reaching the room, he couldn't go in. He stood outside observing the commotion in the room before him with wary eyes. Blaine knew he was going to have to sing something and it wasn't that he was scared to do it, he's just afraid of the reaction he's going to get for being there. Blaine can predict now that at least one person is going to ask if this is some kind of plot to destroy them or whatever. Out of the six members present, he's only ever spoken to two: Kurt and Finn. He'd talked to Finn a little during his first year here when Finn was on the football team. He quit not long after joining Glee since he was getting a load of crap from the guys. Blaine admired Finn in a way, for being able to do what he loves doing despite what his friends think.

"Blaine!" a hand suddenly came and clapped him on the shoulder resulting in the said boy to jump vigorously. Blaine inclined his head to see the smiling face of Mr Schuster. "Glad to see you hear! Figgins' told me to expect you. Come on in!" This guy was way too enthusiastic for Blaine's liking.

Schuester entered the room, practically jumping, with Blaine following uncertainly.

"Right guys! We have a new member with us today. Please give a warm Glee Club welcome to Blaine Anderson!" he belted out with his hands gesturing to their new member. Blaine was certain that his face was going to split in two with that wide smile stretched upon it. It seems as though Mr Schue was the only person in the room clapping.

Blaine looked on anxiously at Rachel, Finn, Tina, Artie and Mercedes dumbfounded faces and a small part of him lit up as he saw Kurt's smiling one.

"…Hi," he mumbled with a shaky voice.

"Oh, hell to the no!" Mercedes yelled and Blaine was sure his body left his skin for a moment. "Mr Schue, he cannot be here! This is obviously some ploy to destroy us!" See, I told you.

"I have to agree with Mercedes, Mr Schue. Blaine here is friendly with those jocks, which, if you have failed to notice, make it their mission to ensure we remain the lowest of the low. Now, Blaine, if you would kindly leave my choir room," Rachel Berry said with her hands gesturing her every word. Her choir room? Who does she think she is? Blaine had already come to the decision that he wasn't too fond of this one.

"Guys! Cut it out, alright?" Kurt interrupted. "Blaine," Holy shit, he's talking to me. "welcome to Glee Club." Oh wow, I want to see that smile every day. Blaine realised he was staring and quickly composed himself before returning Kurt's smile shyly.

"Thank you, Kurt. See guys, if Kurt's okay with it, you all should be," Schuster proclaimed. Blaine wasn't really listening to what he was saying, he was still completely dazed over the fact that Kurt had just stuck up for him.

"He's right guys," Finn backed up. Wait, Finn?! "Blaine's a cool dude, give him a chance." That shut everyone up. Blaine just gawked at the taller guy not believing that Finn Hudson, of all people, just defended him.

"Alright guys. Blaine, I know Figgins' wants you to be here, but would you please still audition for us? It'd be great to hear your voice, right guys?" Blaine wasn't surprised by both the question and the silence in response.

"Uh, sure."

"That's great! Do you have something prepared?"

"I have something, I guess…"

"Alright! The floors yours." Schuster announced and went and sat by Kurt who gave Blaine a reassuring smile.

That's all Blaine needed. He quickly told the band the song he was performing and returned to his spot before the club. He took a deep breath as the music started.

Welcome to the planet
Welcome to existence
Everyone's here
Everyone's here
Everybody's watching you now
Everybody waits for you now
What happens next?
What happens next?

Blaine's voice wavered slightly as he started to sing, his nerves getting the better of him.

Dare you to move
Dare you to move
Dare you to lift yourself off up the floor
Dare you to move
Dare you to move
Like today never happened
Today never happened before

His voice grew stronger as he hit the chorus and he was starting to get into the song. The stunned looks on everyone's faces were extremely encouraging.

Welcome to the fallout
Welcome to resistance
The tension is here
The tension is here
Between who you are and who you could be
Between how it is and how it should be

The lyrics of this song really described Blaine and that's what inclined him to choose it. The words were amplifying his thoughts; he had options but it was only himself that could make the choice.

Dare you to move
Dare you to move
Dare you to lift yourself up off the floor
Dare you to move
Dare you to move
Like today never happened
Today never happened

Maybe redemption has stories to tell
Maybe forgiveness is right where where you fell
Where can you run to escape from yourself?
Where you gonna go?
Where you gonna go?
Salvation is here

Singing this song was like Blaine was releasing what's been bottled up inside of him and was basically speaking of the mental battles he has against himself. He'd 'dare' himself to move forward and be his true self, but would always end up going with the forfeit.

Dare you to move
Dare you to move
Dare you to lift yourself up off the floor
Dare you to move
Dare you to move
Like today never happened
Today never happened
Today never happened before

The song ended and Blaine was truly surprised when Kurt, Finn and Schuster started clapping. He would be lying if he said the bewildered faces of the others didn't satisfy him.

Ha! You weren't expecting that now were you? Blaine wanted to laugh but thought better of it.

"Wow, Blaine! You have a tremendous voice, something we could really use in this club. I can say I speak for all of us when I say this: welcome to Glee Club, Blaine, we are very glad to have you here. Alright, let's talk about the school musical!"

Blaine remained where he was; where was he supposed to sit? As if Kurt could read his mind, he gingerly tapped the seat beside him and tilted his head as if to say 'come and sit here.' Blaine gladly took him up on his offer.

"You were amazing," Kurt leaned over and whispered. Blaine's body screamed at how close he was right now, he could feel Kurt's warm breath on his cheeks.

"Thanks," he murmured in reply accompanied with a bashful smile. He rubbed his hands on his jeans to rid them of the sweat that had gathered.

"Right guys, listen up! We're going to be doing something a little different this year for the school musical."

"What do you mean by 'different'?" Rachel piped.

"We're going to be putting on a show written by our very own Artie Abrams," he gestured to the said boy who smiled proudly.

"An original script?" Rachel asked, looking horrified.

"Yes, Rachel. An original script."

"But…"

"No buts, Rachel, we're doing it. Now, Artie, would you like to give a brief description of the plot?"

"Sure, Mr Schue. It's basically a story of burning passions and blazing Tommy guns. It follows the story of Tommy 'the gun' Thornton in New York and he falls in love with the mysterious club singer. But there's a twist: the club singer is a guy," Artie described dramatically.

"Do you really think that's a good idea? I mean, McKinley's not exactly accepting," Kurt pointed out looking slightly worried.

"I thought of that, Kurt. But isn't it a perfect opportunity to send a message out to everyone?"

"Whoa, whoa whoa! Hang on a second! There is no way I'm kissing my brother!" Finn exclaimed resulting in Kurt rolling his eyes.

"There's no kissing in it, Finn, I wouldn't take it that far. This is McKinley remember."

"Oh, okay then. But still, I can't pretend to be in love with my brother."

"Actually, Finn, I was thinking," Schuster began. "Blaine should play Tommy."

Wait, what?

"What?" Blaine cried, not liking where this was going. "I – I can't do that."

"Do you have a problem with acting alongside my brother?" Finn asked defensively. Shit.

"N-No! No, not at all! I mean… I don't think I could play the lead."

"Of course you can, Blaine! Now, I've already gave you all parts, auditioning didn't seem necessary. Blaine will be Tommy, Kurt will be the club singer, Rachel, you will be playing Caroline…."

Blaine zoned out for the rest of the lesson mentally freaking out. Sure, he loved that he now had an excuse to be in Glee Club, but playing the leading role? No way. Plus, that said character was gay. Blaine didn't have a problem with that; he was more worried about how everyone else would react. Would they believe that it's only acting or would they finally unveil the truth? Schuester's word seemed final so he couldn't see a way of getting out of this.

Well, one thing's for sure; his character was going to be in love with Kurt's, so not much acting's going to have to be involved.

Blaine was stuck. He'd got a lift with Mike this morning so he didn't have a car and he'd missed the bus. Plus, it looked like it was going to rain so walking didn't sound like so much fun right now.

"You okay, Blaine?" Kurt's voice came beside him unexpectedly.

"Jesus, Kurt! You scared me," Blaine gasped, clutching his chest.

"Oh, I'm sorry! I didn't mean to scare you!" Kurt assured, placing a comforting hand on his arm which didn't do Blaine any favours in trying to slow down his racing heart.

"It's okay, just warn a guy, you know?"

"Sorry. But anyway, back to the question: are you okay?"

"Just peachy. Sorry. Yeah, I'm fine. I didn't drive myself this morning and I've missed the bus, so it looks like I'll be getting soaked to the bone," Blaine stated looking up at the black clouds forming.

"Do you want a ride?"

"Really? You wouldn't mind?" Blaine asked, slightly shocked.

"Of course not. You're on my way anyway, right?"

"Right." Not that I know where you live or anything because that would be weird…

"Okay, cool. Follow me then!" Blaine followed Kurt to his car, resisting the urge to grab the boys hand by stuffing his own in his pockets. He didn't know what was wrong with him lately, he's had to stop himself from doing many things around Kurt. He got into the passenger side and was mentally freaking out over that fact that he was sat in Kurt's car with Kurt.

"Any particular radio station?" Kurt asked as he started the engine.

"You chose."

Kurt started fiddling with the dial until 'Teenage Dream' began pouring out of the speakers.

"Oh, my God, I love this song!" Blaine exclaimed and instantly regretted it.

What the fuck, Blaine?! Way to go, Anderson, now Kurt's looking at you weird.

"You do?" Kurt asked disbelievingly. "Really?"

"Um…"

"I wouldn't label you as a Katy fan."

"I can appreciate good music," Blaine defended.

"Come on, Lady Gaga's way better."

"No way, Katy Perry for the win!"

"No!"

"Yes!"

"No!"

"Yes!"

"No!"

"Are we seriously having this argument?" Blaine asked and Kurt just laughed in response.

"Forty two…" Kurt muttered perking up Blaine's curiosity.

"Forty two? What do you mean?"

"Befriend someone who I never expected to. It's a sort of to-do list I have."

"You never expected to be my friend?" Blaine remarked his voice filled with interest.

"Well, no. I mean, we're completely different, you know? And we're at opposite ends of the food chain," Kurt pointed out.

"I guess… But opposites attract, right?"

"Hmm."

"So, what else is on this list of yours?"

"To go to New York, get into NYADA, work at Vogue, be on Broadway, attend senior prom, get a tattoo…" Kurt listed. "Have my first time with someone I love…" he added in a quieter voice, his cheeks reddening and Blaine found it incredibly adorable.

"Broadway, huh?" Blaine asked, trying to shake off the current thoughts he was having about the pair of them in bed…. Naked... Doing certain… things.

"Yeah, it's always been a dream of mine."

"What's your number one?"

"I'd tell you, but… then I'd have to kill you," he replied mischievously with a smirk.

"I see how it is. I will get it out of you one day."

"I doubt that."

"Do not doubt me, I can be very persuasive."

"I'm very stubborn."

"Just you wait. So, a tattoo? I wouldn't take you as someone who'd want one." He honestly couldn't with how flawless his perfect skin was.

"There are a lot of things you don't know about me, Blaine," Kurt said with a thoughtful look appearing on his face.

Blaine couldn't help but think that Kurt had a secret, something that no one knew.

"There are a lot of things you don't know about me, either."

The rest of the journey was silent, the pair of them lost in their own thoughts. Blaine couldn't help but want to break down Kurt's walls and find out more about him. But he knew that by doing that, he'd have to knock down his own and he wasn't ready to do that yet. He had a feeling though, that if anyone was going to see through his mask, it was going to be Kurt and Blaine was okay with that.

A/N: Hope you guys liked it and was worth the wait, I guess! The song Blaine sang was 'Dare You to Move' by Switchfoot, it features in the film! It's a beautiful song, you should check it out.

I promise you the wait won't be as long this time, I hand my college project in this Friday so I'll have a few free days so I will write a couple of chapters then.

Please take the time to drop a little review, they really make my day!
