A/N: FINALLY! I got chapter 8 done guys. YAY! (: So, I'm kind of starting to get bored with this story; I kind of feel like I'm dragging my feet. I think I have an idea that could make this really interesting, but ideas are always awesome. And reviews are too; whenever I open my inbox and see a review alert, I get really nervous and then I open the email and I end up with a smile on my face. Thank you so much for reading, review, hell, just clicking on the link to this story. (:

Hey Blaine, Carole, Finn and pulling into the hospital parking lot. Do you think he will be open to talking with us this time?- Burt

I think it'll be better than last time, but I don't know how it's going to go over. Meet me on the floor lobby and I'll fill you in on everything.- Blaine

Thank you Blaine. – Burt

I shoved my phone back in my pocket and looked to Kurt.

"Kurt, I'll be right back okay?"

"Ok." He said, barely audible

I planted a quick kiss on Kurt's forehead and walked out of the hospital room. I walked down the long hallway and soon approached the floor lobby. There, I saw Burt, Carole and Finn walking out of one of the elevators. All three of them looked exhausted; Finn's face was pale and Burt and Carole has red rimmed eyes. The sight broke my heart.

"Hello Mr. and Mrs. Hummel. And hello to you Finn." I said hugging all three of them

"Blaine, how's Kurt?" Burt asked solemnly

"Well, Doctor Jones set up this new kind of therapy for Kurt. He observed that Kurt felt comfortable telling me everything, so basically he had Kurt sit down in a room with me and I was to listen and give support. The Doctor thinks that everything Kurt has been facing; whatever those things may be; have been bottled up for too long and that's what caused Kurt to break. He talked to the Doctor and nursing staff for the first time just a few hours ago. He's nervous about facing all of you. He feels he has disappointed you. And that kills him." I said

"But why would we ever be disappointed in Kurt?" Finn asked

"He's ashamed of what he tried to do, Finn. Let's just leave it at that." I told the rest of the family.

"Try to be very light if you bring up that topic of the incident at all. You have to be very careful with what you say. He is still so sensitive, and if he hears something that might make him feel bad, he might go mute again. I'll lead you down his room now, but wait until I call you in. I'll need a moment to talk with him. Is that okay?" Burt and company nodded. I smiled sadly and gestured for them to follow me down the hallway

"Okay, I'm going to go in now and have a word with Kurt. I'll call you in when he's ready." I said

I opened the door just a crack to slip myself in. I looked at Kurt, lying in his hospital bed. He turned to me and let a light smile form on his lips. I walked back over to my chair which has been by his bed side since the day of the incident. He gave me his hand as I sat down, and I squeezed it.

"Kurt, I have something to tell you." Blaine nodded

A look of panic formed on his face. I squeezed in his hand in reassurance that everything was going to be okay.

"Kurt, your family is outside the door. They want to see you. Kurt, they are so worried about you."

"No." he answered. A simple no.

"What?"

"No. I can't do it."

"Why not?" I asked sympathetically

"They'll hate me. They'll be so ashamed."

"Kurt Elizabeth Hummel." I said firmly but lovingly as I laced Kurt's fingers in between mine. The tears welding in his eyes broke my heart in two.

"I promise you, your family is not ashamed. They love you. They love you so much Kurt. And you don't think so now, Kurt, but they are proud of you. You are something that world doesn't except; we both are. And you still get out of bed every morning and you are still YOU, Kurt. And over the past few weeks, things got rough for you. We're not invincible Kurt, we're human. And humans have feelings and emotions, and the unnecessary hatred you received broke you down. You've been fighting your whole life, and you snapped. That's nothing to be ashamed of. You want to know why? Because even though you're in a low place right now, you're still alive. You are getting back up on your feet slowly but surely. And there is NOTHING braver, than that. Your family is so proud of you Kurt. They love you, just like I do." I said. Kurt was in full blown tears. I let go of his hand to gently wipe the tears from his eyes.

"Kurt, I am always going to do my best to make sure you don't have to cry. I wish you never had to cry; it's not fair seeing you hurt. But we live in a terrible terribly world Kurt. And I promise you, when you do cry, I am going to be here to wipe away the tears. And so are Burt and Carole and Finn. There are so many people who love you so much Kurt. So much." I added, me now crying too.

"Blaine?"

"Yes?"

"How do you always know the perfect thing to say?" he asked

I smiled. I stood up from my chair and planted a kiss on Kurt's lips. I released, keeping my face just a few inches from Kurt's face.

"Have you ever thought that maybe I always say the perfect thing because I have the perfect person listening?" I said, leaning in for another quick kiss. I pulled completely away from Kurt, grabbing his hand once more.

"Kurt, your family is still here. Are you ready?" I asked

He nodded. I leaned in to plant a kiss on Kurt's forehead and I released his hand, walking over to the door.

"Burt, Carole, Finn. You can come in." I said, gesturing everyone in the room

I saw Kurt's face turn pale as one by one everyone entered the room. First Carole, then Finn, and then Burt. Carole walked over to him, planting a light kiss on his forehead, Finn smiled sympathetically and Burt took the seat I had been sitting in just moments before.

"Hey Kurt." He choked out. He reached out for Kurt's hand. I smiled when Kurt took it. Carole and Finn were sitting on two plastic chairs across from Kurt's bed and I pulled up a new chair on the opposite side of Kurt.

"H-hi." Kurt stuttered out, barely audible.

I smiled at Kurt's courage; I know how hard this was for him.

"How are you doing kid?" He asked

Kurt just stared at him. He said nothing. Burt turned to me in worry. I tried my best without words to tell him this is perfectly normal. I stood up from my chair and leaned to Kurt's ear.

"Courage." I whispered. Kurt turned to me and smiled. Courage. One simple word that flooded back so many great memories between us. I sat back down in my chair and Kurt refocused his attention on his father.

"I am okay." He whispered out

"Kurt, every person in this room is going to love you forever. No matter what mistakes we all make, the pain and happiness we go through…. We are always going to be here for each other. And I'm so proud of you Kurt. I'm proud and blessed that I am the proud dad of the brave son." Burt said, trying to hold back tears.

"I love you Dad." He whispered.

I smiled the biggest smiled I had in a long time when I heard those words. I knew from here, Kurt was going to be okay. I knew that Kurt was going to make it. It was going to be tough; there would be ups and downs, but he would make it through.

Burt was hugging Kurt now, everyone in the room in tears. The difference between today and the day of the incident, however, was that today, there were tears of happiness. Kurt was alive. He was talking again, even if it was only little. We were still together. Still happy. And from now on, that's all we were going to be, right?

Post A/N: I have huge plans for Blaine in the next chapter. HUGE. PLANS. Gah, I'm so excited! I really want to write the next chapter, but I need to study for finals. :( …. I think the next chapter will be up soon. Thank you so much for reading this! - we've still got a while on our journey to go. I hope you are all enjoying!

At this time, I would like to acknowledge all the people who have ever gone through something like this. If you are thinking of suicide, cutting, ANYTHING, please, get help. You ARE loved, even if you don't think it's so. Feeling that way, or doing those things isn't a sign of weakness; it's a sign that you've been fighting for too long. Getting help is the bravest thing a person can do.

And that is for my public service announcement.

New chapter in the near future!
