Okay, Kurt's fate will be a little...different (I've yet to read a fanfic like it), but, I hope you guys will like it.
"Thanks for helping me out, Rachel."
Blaine and Rachel were unpacking the last couple of boxes of Blaine's things. Blaine hung a picture on a wall while Rachel hung his clothes up.
"Ah, don't mention it." Rachel replied. "I was bored."
Blaine chuckled at her response and shook his head. 'God, no matter how hard I try, I can not understand that girl...'
Rachel's phone rang. "Hello? ….Finn? …..Whoa, Finn, slow down. I can barely understand you..." Rachel paled. "What? Oh my God! What happened?" Blaine looked at Rachel, concerned. "Oh my God. What hospital? … Lima Memorial? I'll be there in twenty minutes. … Hey, Finn? He's gonna be okay. … Love you, too. Bye." Rachel hung up, her eyes glistening with tears.
"What's wrong?" Blaine asked.
Rachel sniffed. "Um...Kurt is in the hospital. He got into a bad car accident."
Now it was Blaine's turn to pale. A lump rose to his throat and his legs felt like jelly. Without a word, he grabbed his shoes and ran downstairs.

Finn, Burt, and Carole waited anxiously in the waiting room. Their doctor walked up to them. The trio stood up.
"How is he?" Burt asked worriedly.
"He's stable. He's in surgery now." The doctor said. "Kurt suffered head and neck trauma, but it wasn't bad enough to damage them permanently. He's lucky. That pole almost sliced his head off."
Burt sighed heavily. 'Why does all the shit in the world have to happen to my son?' "Can we see him?"
"Of course." The doctor nodded. "Follow me."
The family followed the doctor silently to the operating room. Burt and Carole looked through the window. A team of six doctors were working on Kurt. Burt swallowed back a huge lump. It hurt to see Kurt looking so small and broken. The doctor conversed with one of the surgeons. The doctor sighed, rubbed his forehead and went back out into the hallway.
"What's wrong?" Burt asked.
The doctor sighed. "We're doing everything we can for Kurt...but he's not responding to the antibiotics."
"So, what does that mean?" Carole asked worriedly.
"I'm no psychologist, but...it seems like Kurt is losing his will to live." The doctor reported.
"So...like...he doesn't want to live anymore?" Finn asked, confused.
"Pretty much." The doctor answered. Burt didn't know what to say. He sighed, turned away and rubbed his forehead. The doctor continued. "Has Kurt suffered an emotional trauma recently? Like a bad breakup?"
Finn's stomach dropped. "Yeah...his boyfriend cheated on him."
"I see." The doctor turned to Burt. "Don't worry. We will do everything we can for Kurt. Don't give up hope."

After the doctor returned to the OR, Burt restrained himself from kicking a wall. "I'm gonna kill him. I will march through his house and cut off his limbs with a dull knife, I swear to God!"
"Burt, calm down. Hurting Blaine won't make Kurt better." Carole held her hands up for peace. "It'll only make the situation worse."
Finn checked his watch. He called Rachel twenty-five minutes ago. Was she here? He stood up. "I called Rachel. I'm gonna check and see if she's still here."
Carole nodded. "Okay."
Finn walked through the hallways and down an elevator. Around the corner of the hall, he spotted Rachel followed by Blaine. He stopped in his tracks.
"Finn!" Rachel ran to hug her boyfriend. "Is Kurt okay?"
"He's in surgery." Finn told her. He turned to Blaine. "Blaine, you shouldn't be here."
"My boyfriend's in surgery. Why wouldn't I be here?" Blaine asked in frustration.
"Burt knows about the night at Scandals. And...last night." Finn sighed. "He's beyond pissed at you right now."
Blaine swallowed and sighed. "I wanna make this right. I have to see him. Please, Finn? I texted Kurt telling him I'm sorry and to please let me explain."
"When?"
"A couple hours ago." Blaine answered.
"...That's when Kurt got into the accident." Finn stated.
Blaine's stomach dropped and shivers ran up and down his spine. He texted Kurt and he got into an accident. It was his fault. Blaine slowly turned around and walked off.
"Blaine!" Rachel called after him. She sighed and turned to Finn and frowned. "Why am I not surprised?"
"What? What did I say?"
"It wasn't what you said- it's how you said it." Rachel tried very hard not to shout. "You sounded like you blame Blaine for the accident!"
"But I don't!" Finn protested.
"Then who do you blame?" Rachel wanted to know.
Finn hadn't thought about that...let's see...Kurt got into a car accident after Blaine cheated on him with Sebastian. Sebastian blackmailed Blaine into sleeping with him.
"Oh, that bastard." Finn muttered darkly.
"What?" Rachel asked.
Finn sighed heavily and sat on a bench. Rachel sat next to him. Finn rubbed his face in his hands before continuing. "I wasn't going to tell you...because I knew you'd tell everyone else in Glee club. Sebastian blackmailed Blaine into having sex with him. Kurt walked in on them last night."
Rachel gaped in shock. "What? How could he do that?"
"He was blackmailed, Rachel. He had no choice." Finn shook his head.
"Um...restraining order? Reporting it to the police?" Rachel raised an eyebrow.
"They are gay, Rachel. The police aren't going to do anything." Finn replied. "You know how homophobic this town is."
Rachel sighed and shook her head. She considered leaving, but then realized Blaine has the car keys and probably left. "Hey, can I have a ride home? When you're done here, anyway?"
"Sure."

After three hours, the surgery was complete. The doctor walked out of the OR, smiling. Burt, Carole, Finn, and Rachel waited with bated breath.
"He's fine. Surgery went well, and he's in recovery."
Burt let out a huge sigh of relief. Finn laughed with relief and hugged Rachel. "He's gonna be okay!"
The doctor nodded. "He's resting now. You should go home, get some rest. We'll see you in the morning."
Burt nodded and hugged the doctor. "Thank you."
"So, I guess he wants to live now?" Finn commented.
"Apparently." Carole sniffed.

Rachel walked into her house and locked the door. She took off her coat, hung it up, and headed upstairs. She heard Blaine sniffing and crying softly in his room and went to investigate.
"Blaine? What's wrong?" She walked over to Blaine's bed where Blaine lay on his side curled into a fetal position. She sat on the edge of the bed.
"I messed up. I wrecked everything." Blaine sobbed. "Kurt's in the hospital and it's all my fault."
"Blaine, it was not your fault." Rachel said soothingly. "Stuff happens. You can't always control the situation."
"I should've told him about last night...before it happened." Blaine sniffed. A hole started burning in his stomach.
"Sebastian blackmailed you. If anyone's to blame it would be him." Rachel pointed out. Blaine looked at her confused. "Finn told me."
"He hates me. They all hate me." Blaine lamented.
"Who hates you?" Rachel asked in shock.
"Kurt, his family...and I'm pretty sure once they find out, the Glee club will hate me too." Blaine replied.
"They'll understand. They just need time."
"He's gone. I cheated on him, and now he's gone." Blaine sniffed. He was running out of tears, and he felt light-headed.
"Kurt waited months for you. He's not just gonna walk away." Rachel shook her head.
"It's over. He's gone." Blaine wiped away tears. Rachel hung her head and exhaled slowly. "Why are you being so nice to me?"
"What?"
"I cheated on your best friend." Blaine reminded Rachel. "You should be kicking me out of your house and Glee."
Rachel closed her eyes and opened them. "I cheated on Finn last year because I was pissed at him for lying about him sleeping with Santana. To me, that's worse than being blackmailed into cheating."
Blaine stared at Rachel and managed a weak smile. "Thanks."
"You're welcome." Rachel stood and started to leave, but lingered by the door. "You should know that Finn doesn't blame you. Also, Kurt's surgery went well. He pulled through."
Blaine smiled with relief. Maybe things will be better. Some people, when they've been in an accident, they automatically forgive their loves.

Kurt woke to bright sunlight streaming through his eyelids. His neck and head hurt and his body felt sore. He moaned slightly and opened his eyes. He was on a hospital bed. He looked to his right to see his father sleeping in a chair.
"Dad?" Kurt breathed. He was surprised he could talk with his neck feeling like a knife was sticking out of it.
Burt woke up and immediately rushed to Kurt's side. "Kurt? Are you okay?"
"Yeah."
Burt hugged Kurt in a tight embrace. "I can't believe I almost lost you."
Kurt returned the hug. "I'm sorry. I wrecked your car."
"That's not important right now." Burt shook his head.
Kurt was about to respond when Carole and Finn walked into the room. Carole rushed to Kurt and hugged him. "Oh, Kurt. We were so worried!"
"Dude, I'm glad you're okay." Finn said, smiling.
"Me, too." Kurt smiled at his stepbrother. "I'm sorry I hit you...and shoved you...and slammed your face into the devilled eggs."
Finn chuckled lightly. "It's okay. I probably deserved it."
Kurt chuckled. He looked around the room. "Where's Blaine?"
Finn and Burt looked at each other nervously. Burt swallowed and turned back to Kurt. "Kurt...do you remember what else happened last night? And the night before?"
Kurt closed his eyes in thought. Memories from the past two nights flooded back into his brain. Blaine cheated on him with Sebastian. Tears threatened to leak from his eyes, but Kurt fought them back. "Oh."
"Kurt...Blaine was blackmailed by Sebastian." Finn reminded him. "He wanted it even less than you did. He feels really bad about it."
Kurt inhaled and exhaled slowly. "I'm a little tired."
"We'll let you sleep, then." Burt said. "You need it."

Blaine walked slowly to Kurt's hospital room carrying a bouquet of flowers. As he got closer to the room, Burt stepped out of his room. Blaine stopped dead in his tracks. Burt frowned and clenched his fists and stormed up to Blaine.
"You've got a lot of nerve showing up here." Burt seethed.
"I'm sorry, Burt. Really." Blaine insisted.
Burt scoffed. "You're sorry." He grabbed Blaine's jacket and pinned him against the wall. "My son almost died last night because of you."
Blaine sighed. "I know. I wanna make this right."
"What could you possibly do to make this right?" Burt asked.
Finn walked out of the room and saw Burt pinning Blaine against the wall. His eyes widened and he ran over to them. "Hey, Burt, come on. We're in a hospital." Finn gently pulled Burt away. "You don't want to get arrested."
Burt shoved Blaine against the wall and pointed a finger at him. "You stay the hell away from my son."
With that, he walked off.
Blaine groaned and threw back his head. Finn sighed and patted his shoulder. "Hey, it's okay. Maybe if you talk to Kurt...tell him what you told me..."
"But, your dad..."
Finn glanced in the direction Burt took off. "He's going to the bathroom. The closest bathroom is three hallways away." Finn led Blaine to Kurt's room. "You have three minutes."
"Thanks." Blaine smiled at Finn. He took a deep breath and walked into the room. Kurt lay on his bed looking so small and fragile. Another lump rose to Blaine's throat. He walked over to his side and took his hand. "Kurt...I'm so sorry for everything I've put you through." His voice cracked and tears sprang to his eyes. "You have to know that Sebastian really does mean nothing to me. I didn't even want to have sex with him. During...you know...all I could think about was you. I was going to tell you, but...Sebastian was going to blackmail me. I should've told you. I shouldn't have let him blackmail me. I know you probably will never trust me again, but I promise, I will do everything I can to regain your trust. I love you more than anything."
Kurt opened his eyes and looked at Blaine. "That was sweet. And you shouldn't have let him blackmail you. You know, when I woke up, I thought of you, too. I asked for you. But then I remembered what you did." Kurt pulled away. "Your three minutes is up. You should get going."
Blaine's throat felt constricted, and his heart heavy. He stood up and left silently. He should have known not to get his hopes up. He would just have to win him back no matter how long it takes.
Sorry if this was rushed, but I wanted to get this up.
