Chapter 19: Found out

After eating lunch, they went back to Santana's to hang out. They put on a movie and just relaxed on the couch. Santana's parents weren't home so they didn't have the fear of being caught. Kurt took a shower, wanting to wash off the encounter off his skin. He scrubbed himself thoroughly three times before rinsing off and stepping out. He towelled himself off and slipped into a pair of Santana's jeans and one of her tops (fashion knows no gender).

He dried his hair, styling it before going back down stairs to the others.
"When I got out of Juvie, I stayed in the shower for two hours," Puck grunted, staring at the TV. "I felt I'd never be clean again."
Kurt nodded in understanding. Just being there for that short amount of time made him feel dirty.
"Thank you. All of you for coming," Kurt said.

Brittany hugged Kurt tightly.
"Your my dolphin. I'll do anything for you," Brittany said and kissed his cheek.
"I mean it, Kurt. We've got your back, when ever, where ever," Puck said, nodding.
"My Britt's and I are there for you," Santana said simply. "I may be a bitch, but you are too. We get along. We make the people."

Kurt shook his head and chuckled. They arranged it so that they would take Kurt back to his house after school let out to make it look like he had been at school and that way Burt wouldn't have to know. Kurt knew that they would find out eventually, he had just hoped that it would be so far down in the future that this seemed like a tiny little dot in his life.

Apparently not. Puck drove up to the house and Kurt was confused as to why Blaine's car was parked there. Puck, Brittany and Santana got out of the car and together they walked to the house. Kurt shot a slightly frightened look to the other's before stepping into the house. It was quite but Kurt wasn't fooled. He noticed that the house wasn't empty because there were shoes all by the front door.

"Do you think it's too late to bail to Canada?" Kurt whispered.
"I'll drive," Puck said.
"Lord Tubbington is from Canada," Brittany said which made them all stare at her.
"It's why he can smoke so much," Brittany continued.
"I don't think that's why," Kurt said carefully and quietly.
"Oh. I guess so. Maybe you could talk to him and get him to cut back," Brittany said.
"I'll try," Kurt said, lips twitching.
"He listens to you," Brittany said happily and Santana took her hand.

They stepped into the living room and were greeted by the sight of a very stressed looking Blaine, a worried Carol and Finn and a livid Burt. Kurt paled instantly and knew that they had been caught.
"The shits about to hit the fan," Santana murmured quietly behind Kurt and he elbowed her and she fell silent, rubbing her ribs.

"Why," Burt asked angrily, his voice cutting through the silence making him sound deadly. "did I get a phone call from the Juvenile Detention Centre that you left your phone there?"
Kurt's hands went to his pockets and cursed mentally. He didn't check if he had his phone before he left, he was just too keen to get out of there.
"And why did I get a call from the school asking if a tow truck had come and picked you up and if you were going to return to school?"

Kurt swallowed and fidgeted nervously. Santana, Brittany and Puck all took a step back and Burt rounded on them.
"Don't even think of moving," Burt growled.
"Dad it wasn't their fault," Kurt said tiredly. It had been a long and emotional day. "I made them."
"So you did go to the detention centre?" Burt asked.

"Yes," Kurt said quietly.
"Why?" Burt exploded. "Why on earth would you do such a stupid and idiotic thing? He tried to kill you Kurt and you go and see him?"
"He was surrounded by guards and behind bullet proof glass," Kurt said quietly.
"And that makes it better?" Burt cried.
"Why did you tell us where you were going?" Carol asked, anger in her tone but also worry. "You had us all worried. Especially Blaine when you didn't turn up."

Kurt looked to Blaine who looked stressed and concerned and maybe a little angry.
"I didn't go alone. I'm not stupid," Kurt said, looking away and down at his shoes.
"You've got a funny way of showing it," Burt growled. "I suppose you three went with him?"
"Yes sir," Puck said. "Kurt asked if I would take him. He seemed determined so I thought it best if he had people he knew with him instead of some random stranger if he took a taxi."

Kurt was impressed. Puck was smooth when he wanted to be. Burt grunted unhappily.
"I suppose," He grunted reluctantly. "But that doesn't excuse your behaviour!"

"No, but I'm not sorry for taking him," Puck said.
"Kurt has our support and he felt this was something he needed to do," Santana said.
"I'd do anything for my dolphin," Brittany said, taking his hand.
Burt looked surprised with the level of support but shook his head to get back on track.

"You still should have told me," Burt growled.
"You would never have let me go!" Kurt cried, looking up.
"Damn straight I wouldn't have," Burt snapped. "He tried to kill you!"
"Yes, I was there," Kurt said coldly.
Burt snapped his mouth shut and took a deep breath, trying to calm himself.
"Why did you go?" Finn asked after a moment of silence.

Everyone looked to Kurt, waiting for an answer.
"I-It's hard to explain," Kurt stuttered. "He..he nearly ruined my life. I just..I don't want that to be my life anymore. I want to move on, get away from it. I'm happy dad! I'm so happy! Blaine makes me so incredibly happy! I haven't felt this way since mum died."
And then Kurt was suddenly yelling. He couldn't help it. It was like a dam had been broken and it was all flooding out of him.

"I don't want to be defined by him anymore. The kid that nearly got choked to death by a bully at his school. I want to be defined by my friends, my talent, by Blaine. I needed closure! His life is ruined, he'll be behind bars for years! But me, I get a second chance and he was still holding me back!"
Kurt was panting, his voice straining.

Everyone looked surprised by his ranting and Kurt was surprising himself.
"You don't understand what it's been like. He plagues my dreams every night, lurking in every loud noise," Kurt stressed. "I needed to let get of him and I finally have!"
Everyone fell silent, Kurt reeling in what he said.

Burt took a deep breath after a few minutes.
"I'm happy that your happy kid. I am. But that doesn't excuse you lying and running off without telling me where you went," Burt said.
"I know. I shouldn't have put any of you through that," Kurt said softly, looking at Blaine.
"You're grounded until I say otherwise," Burt said and Kurt nodded.

"And you three," Burt continued, looking to Puck, Santana and Brittany. "If you help with something like this again I'll ban you from seeing him outside this house."
"Understood," Santana and Puck said while Brittany just nodded, looking a tad confused.

Burt nodded and sat down heavily.
They had good enough sense to leave. Puck, Santana and Brittany said goodbye and quickly left. Finn headed up stairs to his room and Kurt and Blaine headed to Kurt's quietly. Kurt felt so guilty and didn't say anything. He watched as Blaine sat down on the bed heavily and looked stressed. Kurt shut the door a little (but not the whole way) and waited for Blaine to speak.

"Why didn't you tell me?" Blaine finally asked, his voice cracking.
"Would you have let me go?" Kurt asked, coming a little closer.
"I-no, probably not," Blaine admitted. Kurt sat next to Blaine and took his hands in his.
"I'm sorry I didn't tell you," Kurt said quietly. "I felt so guilty Blaine but I needed to do it. For all the reasons I said down stairs."

Blaine nodded, running his thumb over the back of Kurt's hands.
"You had me really worried when you didn't turn up and with that cryptic message I started to panic," Blaine admitted. "The Warbler's were worried too."
Kurt flushed and shook his head.
"Sorry. I know I should have told you," Kurt said. "I should have told my dad too. He was right, it was stupid."

"Not if meant something to you," Blaine said softly and Kurt looked at him. Blaine looked less worried now and Kurt hugged him tightly. They stayed like that for a while before gently pulling away.
"What was it like?" Blaine quietly. Kurt moved back onto the bed and Blaine followed. They got comfy and Kurt snuggled into Blaine's arms.

"It's awful in there," Kurt shivered.
"What did he say to you?" Blaine asked and Kurt sighed.
"He said he wasn't sorry, but he wished he had never done it. He said it was my fault that he was in there," Kurt said bitterly.

Blaine arms tightened around Kurt and he growled softly.
"I told him that he couldn't hold me in his fear anymore and that he was disgusting and that I hope he never got out. Then I spat on the glass at his face and left," Kurt continued.
Blaine chuckled slight but it seemed off.

They sat in silence for a while, Blaine stroking his hair.
"I threw up on the way home," Kurt said softly. "He made me feel disgusting. I showered too."
"I was wondering why you were wearing girl clothes," Blaine said.
"Fashion has no gender," Kurt quipped back.

This got a genuine chuckled out of Blaine and Kurt smiled.
"I promise I won't do anything like this again," Kurt said.
"I know you won't," Blaine replied. "I just really hope this helps you Kurt."
"Me too," Kurt whispered.

"So I make you incredibly happy?" Blaine asked, a smugness in his tone. Kurt chuckled.
"Yes. I love you so much Blaine."
"I love you too Kurt."
"Do you think my dad will ever forgive me?" Kurt asked, worry in his voice.

"Of course. He loves you Kurt and wants what's best for you," Blaine answered, looking down to Kurt who looked back up at him. "You just scared us all. We love you and don't want to see you get hurt again. We just hope that it will help."
"I can't believe I lied," Kurt groaned. "I never lie!"

"You are pretty bad at lying," Blaine chuckled and Kurt swatted him.
"Shut up," Kurt grumbled but there was smile on his lips.
"So next time you decided to go on a crazy adventure you'll invite me?" Blaine asked.
"You'll ride shot gun," Kurt assured him and Blaine grinned brightly.
"Thank you," Blaine grinned.

"We were thinking of bailing to Canada actually," Kurt said. "You know, to avoid what happened down stairs."
"You can get married in Canada," Blaine said and Kurt froze slightly.
"That you can," Kurt said. "I wouldn't have left without you."

"You did promise I could ride shot gun," Blaine grinned and Kurt chuckled.
"Forever," Kurt murmured.
