The Klaine ~~~ Kurt and Blaine LOVE
The War of the Warblers
Chapter 5: It Might Be too Late to Apologize
Kurt tossed around in bed. He was awake but hadn't opened his eyes yet. He took a minute and stretched. Then he opened his eyes and then bolted up straight. "Where am I?" He looked around. He was in his own room on his own bed. "Oh…. How did I get here? What happened last night? Ouch!" He pressed his for head to his palm. "Why does my head hurt so much? Uhhhhhhh!" He sat on his bed for a moment just letting the pain pass. "Why can't I remember anything?" He thought for a moment and then Puck's face came into his mind. "Puckerman! He gave me something to drink. Dammit why did I drink it? If this is what a hang over feels, it sucks." He said flopping back down on his bed.
Little things started to come back to him. He remembered the club and the Warblers on stage singing and of course Blaine singing with that jerk Scott…. "Blaine!" He held his head in his hands and thought hard. Did he ever get the chance to talk to Blaine? That's all he wanted yesterday. He wanted to finally make up with Blaine. But… what happened?
His phone started to ring. He looked at it. It was Mercedes. The phone said he already had eleven miss calls from her. He picked up the phone.
"Mercedes?"
"Kurt! What happened last night?" She yelled.
Kurt cringed in pain and held the phone away from him. His head felt like it was splitting in two. "Stop yelling."
"Finn said you were already home by the time he got back but no one saw you leave. What happened? You were so drunk I was worried you tried driving."
"No… I… Hmmm… what…? I left before all of you?" He said confused.
"Yeah."
"How did I get home? Well…" He thought for a moment. "Maybe Blaine took me home. Yeah that's probably what happened." He said getting cheered up by his own words.
"Uhh…." Mercedes hesitated.
"What? Did something happen?" Kurt asked.
Mercedes remained silent.
"Mercedes tell me." He demanded.
"Well… I saw Blaine… leave with Scott."
"What?" Kurt yelled. "Ahhhh!" He put his hand to his forehead again. "What do you mean Blaine left with Scott?"
"Ummm…. It was after you already went missing and I saw them leaving together. Blaine looked really upset."
"Upset?"
"Yeah… actually… he looked heartbroken. Like something really bad just happened. I…." She paused. "I think I even saw him crying."
Kurt gave a small gasp. "Blaine was crying. Why… why would he be…?"
Then a flash of a memory came back to him. Kurt remembered himself on a couch with someone over him…. It was Karofsky… Kurt closed his eyes. He could remember kissing Karofsky!
Kurt gasped and dropped the phone. "I… I didn't… I… wouldn't! Oh my god! Oh my god!"
"Kurt? Kurt?" Mercedes said from the phone.
"Kurt picked it back up. "I… I have to go."
"What? Wait…. What happened?" She said.
Kurt hung up the phone and instantly began to dial Blaine's number. It rang but then went to voicemail. Kurt hung up and called again. He called over twenty times and each time it went to voicemail. "Oh my god! What have I done? I need to talk to him! I need to talk to him!"
The next day, Monday morning:
Blaine walked down the familiar hallway. He was back… back home in away. He nodded at the students as they walked down the Dalton Academy hallway, all wearing the blue blazer. Blaine looked at his clothes. He no longer wore the blazer.
He sighed and continued to walk. He made his way to his favorite room in the entire school, the Warblers' council room. It was empty. He looked at the back of the room. They had added a piano. Blaine smiled. He always wanted them to.
He walked over to it and sat down. His fingers lightly graced across the keys. He stared down at the keyboard. Moments passed. Then after taking a deep breath he began to play.
"Only One"
(Alex Band)
(Blaine)
My eyes are painted red
The canvas of my soul,
Slowly breaking down, again
Today I heard the news
The stories getting old
When will we see the end?
Of the days, we bleed for what we need
To forgive, forget, move on
Cause we've got
One life to live
One love to give
One chance to keep from falling
One heart to break
One soul to take us
Not for sake us,
Only one
Only one
(At that moment someone walked into the room. Blaine could have sworn it would be Kurt but of course it wasn't. It was Scott. Scott simply smiled and as he approached Blaine he began to sing.)
(Scott)
The writing's on the wall
Those who came before
Left pictures frozen still, in time
You say you want it all
But whose side you fighting for?
I sit and wonder why
There are nights, we sleep, while others they weep
With regret, repent, be strong
Cause we've got
(Both: Blaine & Scott)
One life to live
One love to give
One chance to keep from falling
One heart to break
One soul to take us
Not for sake us
Only One
Only One
(Scott)
Just you and I
Under one sky
(Both: Blaine & Scott)
One life to live
One love to give
One chance to keep from falling
One heart to break
One soul to take us
Not forsake us
Only one
One life to live
One love to give
One chance to keep from falling
One heart to break
One soul to take us
Not forsake us
Only one
Only one
Scott sat down next to Blaine on the piano bench.
Blaine sighed, looked at him, and then gave a little chuckle. "I always seem to runaway to this place. Whenever I feel like I don't belong this is where I go." Blaine said looking around the room.
Scott also looked around the room and then gave Blaine a nod. "Maybe… You should consider coming back to Dalton…" Scott suggested.
There was a long pause. Then Blaine took another long deep breath and shook his head. "When I transferred to McKinley I told myself I will never runaway again. So I'm not going to now." And I will not end it like this with Kurt. No matter what we will talk. I would never just runway from him, no matter what happened. Blaine thought.
After a moment Scott nodded and placed and hand on Blaine's shoulder.
Then they both looked up as they heard someone opening the door.
Blaine's eyes widen in shock when he saw Kurt walk through the double doors.
Kurt looked at Scott's hand on Blaine shoulder. He closed his eyes and took a deep breath.
Blaine stood. "Kurt. What are you-?"
"Blaine wait. I…" He sighed. "Blaine I'm so sorry."
Blaine froze and listened.
"Everything… Everything has been my fault. I'm so sorry for how I've been acting. I've been so crazy. Blaine. I've been acting the way I've been acting because… Because I have been crazy jealous."
Blaine's eyebrows creased. "Jealous?"
Kurt nodded and then looked at Scott. "Blaine. Ever since we've met Scott I have been crazy jealous that he's been trying to steal you away from me."
Blaine's mouth slightly fell open.
"And I know… I know I should have just come up to you and told you how I felt but... I didn't want you to see this side of me. I was getting so ugly and I didn't want you to know I was like that. But… if I could say anything in my defense… Blaine…" Kurt took a step closer to him. "When I met you, you were more then I could have ever hoped for. I was so lost and alone and hurt and I just needed someone to at least try to understand me and then…" Kurt smiled. "The fates gave me you. And you were kind, understanding, compassionate, you were everything. And I felt more then lucky to have met you. And then… when… when you were actually telling me I move you and then when you even told me you loved me… I just couldn't believe it. Some times I still don't believe it. And sometime I just get so scared that you're going to realized you made some crazy mistake and walk away from me. So whenever I feel like something or someone is threatening us I get scared. Blaine… I love you. And I'm just so sorry, for everything."
Blaine just stood there with his eyes locked on Kurt's. He didn't answer or make any motion. Then he hung his head. "You… you still cheated."
Kurt's heart stopped and when he blinked a tear slowly fell from his eye. "Blaine I…"
"I saw you. We saw you." He glanced at Scott.
"Blaine I was drunk. I swear to you! Blaine I… I would never… I… Blaine! I… don't want anyone but you! I can't even barley remember what happened I—"
"He didn't cheat."
Everyone looked to the door.
Karofsky was standing there. He looked at Blaine. "Kurt was really messed up and… I took advantage of that to tell him how I felt, but… He doesn't want me. I promise you. He was so drunk last night that for a moment he even thought I was you…" Karofsky sighed. "And the second he realized I wasn't… he pushed me away. He wanted only you."
Blaine glanced at Kurt.
"I even tried to find you. He needed someone to take him home and I knew wanted you but… Scott told me you had already left. So I took Kurt home to make sure nothing happened to him."
Blaine gave Karofsky a little nod and then breathed in and out. Then, "Wait. You said Scott told you I already left?" Blaine said looking from Karofsky to Scott.
Karofsky nodded.
"But... I didn't leave before you two." He looked at Kurt and Karofsky. "I watched you two leave. And… Scott knew I was still there."
Blaine looked at Scott.
Scott who was still sitting on the piano bench stared into Blaine's eyes.
"Scott. What…"
"I knew it! I knew from the beginning and I even came up to you and asked you! And you swore you weren't after Blaine!" Kurt yelled at Scott.
"What?" Blaine said looking at Kurt.
Kurt nodded at Blaine. "He's been lying this whole time!" Kurt looked back at Scott. "Why? You want Blaine back with the Warblers? Is Regionals so important to you that you had to ruin my life?" Kurt yelled.
Scott rose. "It has nothing to do with Regionals! I don't care about a stupid show choir competition!" He yelled.
"Then why?" Kurt yelled.
Blaine looked at him. "Scott what has been going on? Why have you been doing all this?"
"Are you just some boyfriend stealer?" Kurt said glaring at him.
Scott gritted his teeth. "No!"
"Then what's your problem? I love Blaine and look at all the trouble you caused us!"
"Ha! You love Blaine! I liked him before you even knew who he was!"
"WHAT?" Blaine said staring at him.
Scott looked at him. Then he kicked the nearest chair. "God dammit!"
"Scott, tell me what you are talking about! I never met you before we met at the mall."
Scott didn't say anything. He just breathed in and out.
"Scott." Blaine said taking a step closer to him.
Scott suddenly sat down and put his face into his hands. "Dammit…" He said. He gave a heavy sigh and then looked into Blaine's eyes. "I'm so sorry."
