Chapter Two
Blaine Anderson

Finn stopped the tape and took it out. He found an old shoebox in his closet and set all the tapes and tape player in there. He hid the box under his mattress and took a deep breath. He really contemplated on wether or not he should finish the tapes. Did he really want to know the whole story? He decided to do some homework to get his mind off of everything.

"Finn! Come down to eat!" his mom called from the kitchen.

Finn sat down at the table and saw that Blaine and Kurt were already sitting down. He couldn't look at them, what if one or even both of them were a reason why Rachel killed herself? That was it. He had to find out the rest of the story.

"Tunafish salad. I know you love it boys." his mom set a plate of it in front of everyone.

"Where's dad?" Kurt asked.

"He'll be late. Eat up! Blaine, do you like tuna?"

"Um, yeah I guess."

Kurt looked over at Blaine. "I love you." he said with a smile. Finn looked at them with a face half full of sadness, the other disgust.

"Can I take this up to my room?" he asked.

Finn's mother sighed. "Burt, this ones yours."

Burt set his napkin down, And answered Finn, "I don't see why not." as Finn was walking out of the kitchen to go up to his room, he heard them talking.

"Carole, I don't have a problem with him eating in his room. After losing Rachel, it's completely understandable." Burt said in a hushed tone.

"Burt! I get that, but he needs to get over her. She's gone, never coming back. He needs to become
Part of the family, each day he becomes more and more isolated from us."


Finn sat on his bed and lifted the mattress up to retrieve the tapes. He found a pair of headphones that could be put on the side of the tape player. He hooked everything up and slid Tape 2 in.

"Hey Finn. It's Rachel, I mean, of course you know this. But anyway, this is tape 2. Blaine Anderson is the second reason why I killed myself."

Finn bit Down on his lip. He hoped that whatever Blaine had done, it wasn't too much to the point where he would hurt the guy.

"Blaine was a sweetie. He really was, which is why it makes what he did, hard to believe. One day, I was walking home from school and Kurt caught up to me. Kurt and I had both auditioned for the lead in the school play, which was Wicked. Even though the role of Elphaba was originally played by a women, the Drama teacher said that he would allow a boy to do it. Only if he was good enough of course. Long story short... I got the role of Elphaba. Anyway, Kurt kept harassing me about it. Saying I was a homophobe for not giving up the role to a gay kid. Saying that he did better, that I didn't deserve this."

"I just ignored him. Brittany, Santana, and Quinn had been talking about how I didn't deserve it in school that day. I had heard it all. But Kurt kept going on and on about it. I really didn't care. In the past month, this play was the only good thing that was happening. I needed this lead. Finally, worse had come to worse. He slapped me. It wasn't hard and I hardly felt it, but it was still a slap."

" 'What was that for?' I asked."

" 'You do not know what I've had to go through. All the bullying and everything... It just isn't fair! I deserve this role!' he yelled, slapping me again, this time harder."

Finn swallowed and pulled his hands into fists. That stupid son of a-

"Finally I had had enough. I hit him. And Finn... I'm sorry to say, but I hit him hard. It knocked him back and then I kicked his legs, yelling that he better not ever slap me again. Then I resumed walking home."

"School the next day was awkward. Only a handful of people knew about me hitting Kurt. I felt bad about it, but I wasn't humble enough to go apologize."

"Anyway, I was walking home from school and then Blaine came out of nowhere. He told me that that night, him and Kurt had gone out. He questioned Kurt about the split lip that I had given him. He told Blaine where it came from. Blaine approached me and got closer and closer. I should have ran, I really should have."

Finn started to tremble, scared.

"Blaine came up to me and I started to back up. I backed up to far and soon, I was up against a shady tree. Big mistake. I swallowed hard and looked up at him, terrified. Oh Finn, you should have seen the fire that burned in his eyes. He raised his fist and punched me right in the middle of my face. I felt my nose break. I started to slide down the tree, but he pulled me back up by my hair. He resumed punching me, saying: 'Dont. Ever. Hit. My. Boyfriend. Again.' in between each punch."

"I tried to cry out or scream, but he threatened to do worse if I even thought about it. There was nothing I could do Finn."

Finn could hear the hurt in her voice. She sounded like she was crying. He gripped the tape player so hard, he wouldn't've been surprised if he had broken it. It was taking everything he had not to go downstairs and beat the crap out of Blaine.

"So after he was finished breaking my nose, splitting my lip in many different places, blacking both my eyes, and hitting my head against the tree until it bled... He let go of my hair and walked off. I slumped down into a ball and cried."

"Finn... I think you know the rest. Remember how my dad was framed for it?"

Finn remembered that. Not the whole beating thing, but he remembered how at school, the guidance counselor, Ms. Pillsbury, called The police after seeing Rachel all beaten up. Rachel had arrived to school early to use the computers. The police came and took Rachel home before anyone else got to school. But word traveled fast. The police decided that one of her dads, Lenny, had beaten her. He had a record at the police department for getting into a drunken fistfight a couple months before this thing with Rachel happened. He was the only suspect for it, and was locked up in jail for a while.

"So yes. Blaine Anderson was the one who had beaten me up. Blaine Anderson is one of the reasons why I killed myself."

The tape stopped.


A/N: Thank you all soooo much for the awesome support! Sorry I haven't updated in FOREVER! I was at a conference with my church for a while and so... Yeah. That's why, haha.

One teeny tiny question. Should I do all of Rachel's talking in Italics? Would you rather it be like this:

"Blaine came up to me and I started to back up. I backed up to far and soon, I was ip against a shady tree. Big mistake. I swallowed hard and looked up at him, terrified. Oh Finn, you should have seen the fire that burned in his eyes. He raised his fist and punched me right in the middle of my face. I felt my nose break. I started to slide down the tree, but he pulled me back up by my hair. He resumed punching me, saying: 'Dont. Ever. Hit. My. Boyfriend. Again.' in between each punch."

Or like this:

"Blaine came up to me and I started to back up. I backed up to far and soon, I was ip against a shady tree. Big mistake. I swallowed hard and looked up at him, terrified. Oh Finn, you should have seen the fire that burned in his eyes. He raised his fist and punched me right in the middle of my face. I felt my nose break. I started to slide down the tree, but he pulled me back up by my hair. He resumed punching me, saying: 'Dont. Ever. Hit. My. Boyfriend. Again.' in between each punch."

Lemme know, Italics, or no.
