Hi all! Thanks for the five reviews and numerous author and story alerts/favorites!

I finally let my sister read this, and, she loved it, in fact, she called me Tuesday night and was all like "All I can think about is your story! It's so good. When I saw Mike and Matt singing with Puck I was like OMG THEY CAN TOTALLY BE BOYFRIENDS, THEY WOULD BE SO CUTE TOGETHER"

Haha.

Disclaimer: I still don't own Glee. If I did, this would be an actual storyline for the show.

Chapter Two

The next day found Kurt pulling into the school parking lot in his Baby. He grabs a pair of sun glasses before getting out of his Navigator and setting the alarm, looking out for Azimio, Karofsky, or any of the other jocks. After accessing the parking lot and not seeing them near the entrance, he starts his daily strut towards the school entrance.

"Hey Kurt, wait up!" he heard from somewhere behind him, his body automatically tensing at the sound of a voice he wasn't too familiar with.

"What's up man?" Matt asked as he caught up to Kurt and wrapped an arm around his shoulder, making particularly sure not to put enough pressure on to wrinkle Kurt's blazer.

"Oh, hey Matt, didn't recognize your voice, didn't even know you could talk haha" Kurt replied, feeling better knowing that he wasn't about to be thrown into the dumpster.

"Haha, shh, it's one of my closest guarded secrets!" Matt joked, feeling this would be easier than he thought.

"Hey Kurt, I was wondering if maybe you could tutor me in Spanish? I know football season is over, but, I need to keep my GPA up if I ever hope to get a scholarship to get out of this hell hole known as Lima, Ohio." Matt asked, timid all of a sudden.

"Sure, this works out perfectly! I was gonna ask you to help me choreograph a dance actually." Kurt replied, feeling as if this was going way too good to be true.

"Hah, sure. Do you have a song in mind?" Matt asked.

"No, what's Mike's favorite song?" Kurt asked, not exactly sure where that case of verbal diarrhea came from, feeling suddenly awkward.

"What does that have to do with anything?" Matt asked, suddenly more interested as they reached Kurt's locker.

"Oh nothing, I don't know why I asked that. Silly me. But, I was thinking a contemporary dance to Beautiful by Christina Aguilera, it's one of my feel good songs, and I heard that Schue was going to give an assignment for us to perform a song starting with the letter B today, not sure why though..." Kurt explained.

"Meh, who knows why Schuester assigns the things he does, but, I will help you, in return for Spanish tutoring" Matt grinned.

"Why Mr. Rutherford, I believe we have a deal. My place after Glee, you can follow me, or ride with me." Kurt said.

"I'll have to ride with you, my car is in your dad's shop, so I got a ride with Mike" Matt said offhandedly.

At the sound of Mike's name, Kurt's heart rate sped up slightly as be blushed. Kurt immediately stuck his head in his locker as if he were looking for something, hoping that Matt hadn't noticed. Alas, Matt HAD indeed noticed, and was silently cheering.

After waiting for Kurt, Mercedes decided to find Mike and talk to him herself for Kurt. As soon as she noticed him by his locker, she shimmied up next to him, effectively making him jump when she tapped on his shoulder. As Mike turns around and sees her he automatically relaxes and smiles at her, glad that he was about to receive a slushie facial.

"Hey there Mercedes, what's up?" Mike asked.

"I'm gonna cut to the chase, we need to talk." Mercedes said in a serious tone.

"About what? Have I done something? Is it about Glee? I'm sorry, I'll try to sing louder!" Mike replied quite hastily, afraid to be on the receiving end of a Mercedes Jones tirade.

"Shut up boy, no. I just need to know how you feel about my boy Kurt." The corner of her lips turning slight upward at the mention of Kurt's name and Mike's face when he heard his name.

"K-Kurt-t-t , Uhm, he's a cool guy. He's super talented, I wish Schue would give him more solos, everyone except Berry and Schue knows that he threw Defying Gravity. He dresses kinda weird sometimes, but I love it, it makes him interesting, and, uniquely Kurt." Mike replied, blushing deeper with each word, suddenly finding the tile to be just the most lovely design ever.

"Dang, I wasn't expecting all of that. It sounds as if you've really been studying him. Almost as if you..." Mercedes left the statement open to watch for Mike's physical response.

Mike tensed up as he realized that she knew. She knew he liked KURT! Why else would she suddenly talk to him out of the blue? Luckily, he was saved from making up an excuse by the arrival of Puck.

"Sup, Aretha, I need to talk to you... Alone." Puck added, looking at Mike with a pointed expression.

"Whatever man, see you two later in Glee" Mike replied, leaving Puck, and a not too happy looking Mercedes standing by his locker.

"What do you want Puck, I was in the middle of an important conversation." Mercedes snapped at the mohawked jock.

"I want you" Puck replied casually.

"Excuse me, do you really think I would be caught with you? Who knows how many STD's you may have!" Mercedes spat out.

"Aww Aretha, that really hurt. Low blow. Everyone knows I always use protection" Puck defended.

"Quinn." Mercedes deadpanned.

"Well... I'm picking you up Friday night for a date, whether you like it or not." Puck responded, a firm conviction in his voice.

"I don't think you know who you're talking to, Puck. I am not going anywhere with you, unless it's to do with a Glee assignment, I don't like you." Mercedes replied, infuriated at Pucks demeanor.

"Whatever, be ready at 6:45. See you later Aretha" Puck replied as he walked off to wherever he goes.

"IT'S MERCEDES!" Mercedes yelled to his retreating back, feeling a bit more than annoyed.

Meanwhile, as Matt and Mike finally meet up, they both say the same thing to each other.

"We need to talk"

"Okay," Mike said "You first."

"I ran into Kurt this morning, he wants me to help him with some Glee assignment we're supposed to be getting today in return for Spanish tutoring. I'm thinking I may be able to get him to open up about you!" Matt practically squealed at the end.

"Oh, cool. I talked to Mercedes. I think she knows man" Mike said, suddenly feeling nauseous at the idea of Kurt and Matt spending time alone.

"She knows that I like her?" Matt asked, a bit worried.

"No fool, she knows that I like Kurt, she asked what I thought about him, and I ended up spewing a lot of verbal vomit" Mike replied.

"Well, at least you have another person to help you get Kurt." Matt joked lightly.

"You should be worried dude, Puck interrupted our conversation. I think he wants to date her, you might have competition." Mike said seriously.

"Shit" Matt ground out. This would be harder than he thought, he had to get to her before Puck did again.

"You should call her and plan a last minute movie night for Friday night" Matt said.

"For what reason?" Mike asked.

"Simple, it will keep Puck away from my girl. And, it will give you a reason to be in close proximity with Kurt in a room with no lighting except for the TV." Matt replied conspiratorially.

"Okay... that sounds cool. Just us four or should I invite more people?" Mike replied, getting excited at the prospect of being so close to Kurt.

"Nah, just us, don't want any distractions now do we?" Matt replied, feeling good with his new plan.

Well, we've made it through another chapter.

A thanks to my Beta Masked Pineapple for correcting me on more than just grammar. lol.

I plan on updating once a week, not sure how long this is gonna play out. I think I'm gonna have at least 10 chapters before cutting it off and starting the sequel once all of the relationships are established.

Also, to all of my readers that observe Yom Kippur, make it worthwhile.

Reviews are love and get you love in return! How am I supposed to send out lovely holiday cookies if I don't know who has actually read my story after all. =]

(Seriously though, I am an avid baker, and have been known to ship cookie packages to friends in other states. Haha.)

Bai!
