I wiped away the last of my tears, promising myself I would not cry over this situation again. I love Kurt, but I won't be in the background cheering for him and Blaine. I did want him to be happy even if that happiness wasn't achieved with me. I can't stand by and watch as he goes out with a guy who previously cheated on him then went back to the same guy when they broke up. I stood up stiffly. I went up stairs, took a really long hot shower and then slept for the rest of the day. I didn't know what else to do and it helped me not think about Kurt at least for a few hours.

The week passed in a blur of going to school then going home to work on homework. Kurt tried calling and texting me a couple times. I didn't answer. There was no way I wanted to know what he had to say.

It was Friday night and I just missed another call from Kurt. Why did he keep calling? I thought I made myself clear. It's not like we had that strong of a relationship to begin with. It was shaky at best.

I flopped down on my bed, running a hand through my hair when I got a text. I sighed ready to delete if it was Kurt. It was Colin. He wanted to come over to hang out. I told him briefly what happened between me and Kurt earlier in the week. I smiled down at me phone, typing out that he was welcome to come over.

I put my phone on my night stand, watching TV, eyes drooping when there was a knock on the door. I jerked awake. I haven't been getting much sleep the past week. I rubbed my eyes, wiping the sleep away. I slowly got up, walking slowly to answer the door. I held the door open for Colin to come in.

"Hey, there lazy bones." Colin took off his coat, hanging it on his arm.

"Lazy bones?" I yawned. Maybe I was. "Come in. Do you want to watch a movie?" I asked as I led him to the living room where the big TV was.

"Sure. What do you have in mind?" Colin sat down on the couch, butt on the edge, looking over the piles of DVD's we had next to the TV. Before I could suggest anything Colin said, "Man, you have 'Gilligan's Isalnd?' Let's watch that. I think we both need some laughs."

I chuckled for what felt like the first time in a week. "Sounds like a plan. Do you want some popcorn?"

Colin shook his head, getting the box set and putting in the DVD. He sure knows how to make himself at home. "Nah, I'm good. Now come sit down here and let's watch some good old classic TV."

Colin and I ended up watching six episodes. I dabbed at the corners of my eyes. I was laughing so hard that tears streamed down my face. "You really can't do much better than 'Gilligan's Island."

"No you can't. Before we start the next episode how about you tell me what's got you so down." Colin continued to look at the TV, but all his attention was on me.

I sighed. I was hoping to avoid discussing this with him. I also didn't have anyone I could tell or wanted to. Normally I would have gone to Kurt, since he was the source of it that ruled him out. I paused the DVD, slumping in the seat. I sat right next to Colin. He shifted a little, tucking his legs underneath him.

"I went out with Kurt last week as you know." Colin nodded his head. I turned to face him a little, feeling a little uncomfortable not facing him. "The date or whatever the hell it was went well. I kissed him at the end of it and he kissed me back then Blaine showed up. And like the idiot that I am I told Kurt he should comfort Blaine. The next day we went out shopping and Kurt's head was in the clouds. He kept texting someone and didn't pay attention to me until I came out in my boxers. That got his attention." I snarled at the memory. I didn't want to talk about this anymore.

"I would have liked to have seen that." Colin grinned, in the light of the TV.

I lightly slapped his shoulder, laughter taking away the sting of my actions. "Dude, not cool."

"It got you to laugh. Now tell me the rest."

"Bossy much?" I grumbled, continuing with my story. "He brought me home and told me that he was thinking about getting back together with Blaine. I told him we shouldn't talk for a while. I can't watch him go through that again. Especially if Blaine cheats on him again."

"Calm down. I hear you. Have you talked to him since? Did they really get back together?" Colin turned to face me.

I glanced back at the bright screen, cheeks heating up. "He's called a few times and texted, but I delete all his texts before I read them and I never answer. You think I'm being a wuss or something, huh?" I clenched my jaw, tired all over again from this conversation.

Colin laid a soothing hand on my arm, making me turn to face him. "No I don't. I think you're hurt and that you need time to process what has happened. You can call him when and if you're ready. There is no right answer to what you should do. You're handling it in the best way you can. I'm here to listen when you need me to and I promise not to do more than that unless you ask, okay?"

"Okay." I scooted back up the couch, relaxing into it.

"Now how about we get back to 'Gilligan's Island? Oh, yeah tomorrow you're coming with me to the Lima Bean. I'll pick you up at noon. Be ready."

"Sheesh, you really are bossy."

"You're just learning about it now." Colin gave me a cheeky grin then hit play.

I felt a huge weight lifted from me. Venting really helped. I still wanted to keep distance between Kurt and me. For now at least. I didn't know how to cope with the fact that him and Blaine might be back together. So what if Blaine was his first love. He hurt Kurt. But then again they might be able to get past it. Those people must be super strong to forgive someone for cheating. I'm pretty sure I'm not one of them. I turned my attention outward, finding solace in my one of my dad's favorite TV shows.

Colin stayed well past midnight watching TV with me and just talking. He told me he was seeing the guy he was dancing with the night I left with Kurt. I was happy to hear it. It made me feel better knowing that I wasn't leading him on. I wanted him to be happy too.

The night stretched into the next day when Colin picked me up right on time, telling me about the week he had at school and how he was going to start jogging when it warmed up a little more. I told him I'd like to join him sometime. We got to the Lima Bean, walked in and the first thing I saw was Kurt and Blaine. Together. The air whooshed out of my lungs, blood pounded in my ears. It roared in my ears. My vision blurred when Kurt looked at me when the little bell above the door rang. He started coming towards me, brow furrowed, mouth set in a thin line. I backed out of the door, racing through the parking lot, back to Colin's car.

"Dave, wait." Kurt's voice reached my ears. Somehow his voice was the only one I could hear above the noise in my ears.

My insides tightened when I found there was nowhere to go. I kept my back to Kurt when he caught up to me. "What do you want?" I gritted out. Why was this happening? I didn't want to see Kurt or hear him. Because I knew he'd be able to break through my defenses. It was Kurt.

"We have to talk."

"About what?"

"About the fact that I like you."

Huh? Did I hear that right? I started walking away, ignoring Kurt's calls for me to stop. This wasn't happening. Why didn't he tell me earlier? And why was he with Blaine? Answers I wasn't ready to hear. And didn't want to.

Yay! Chapter 9 is finished

Chapter 10 will be posted soon
