Blaine discovers.

Chapter 10: {Trust}

Blaine had his fists clenched as he stared at the door to the choir room. I'm going to punch him when he gets here. I'm going to punch him in the face and…step on his toes. We'll see how he dances after I am done.

He opened his phone again and looked at the last message Mike sent him.

-I made it home. I saw that you were worried about that. David gave me a ride.-

That was all. Mike didn't respond when Blaine texted back, asking what he was thinking and what was wrong. He didn't even respond when Blaine texted that morning. He had spent the entire weekend trying to get a hold of Mike and worrying about him. It was infuriating. Even when he visited the Chang residence he was turned away by Michaels parents.

"He is out with his girlfriend" they told him, which made him even more irritated. Now you choose to spend time with her. Now? God dammit Chang what are you doing to me.

Blaine tapped his toes impatiently and ran a hand through his hair as everyone else started walking into Glee club. He wondered if he would even see Mike. He didn't see him at all during school hours. Did he stay home from school? Is he sick? Blaine buried his hands into his hair out of frustration.

"What's wrong fancy pants?" David walked up to him, smiling a little. It made his face completely different. Like he was a big teddy bear or something.

"Nothing David. Listen you gave Micha-Mike a ride home on Friday right?"

Dave shrugged and nodded.

"Was everything alright with him?"

"I wasn't really paying attention," David shifted his eyes awkwardly. "We really just talked about me."

Of course Michael, always make the subject about someone else, never about how you feel, never about your likes or dislikes. You save all of that for-

"For me," He said aloud.

"What was that?"

"Nothing David."

Blaine looked up to see Tina walk through the door. His stomach flipped, expecting to see her hand in hand with Mike. He was disappointed to see that Mike didn't join his girlfriend.

He was shocked to get an undeniable death stare from the girl as she walked past him. What the hell is going on here? First Mike, now her?

Blaine leaned back in his seat and sent a warm, unconcerned smile in her direction. She huffed and marched further.

"Hey Blaine," Kurt walked toward him. He looked pale and fidgety.

"Kurt," Blaine said quietly and took his boyfriends hand into his. It's so good to see someone who isn't mad at me or avoiding me or confusing me. "Where is Finn? Doesn't he usually come to Glee club with you?"

"He had to stay behind to get yelled at by a teacher."

"How was schoo-"

"Have you seen Mike? I really need to talk to him?"

"He's been avoiding you too huh?"

"And Finn, we tried all night to get a hold of him on Sunday but he didn't respond," Kurt sighed and leaned forward. Blaine placed a hand on his back and began to scratch it soothingly.

"I wish I knew what was wrong." Blaine said sorrowfully. "Are you sure he didn't say anything?" He felt Kurt tense up under his hand.

"He didn't Blaine, trust me."

"I trust you." Blaine looked at the door wistfully and sighed.

His brain was working so hard not to focus on how much it ached to not have Michael's smiling face before him, or his witty texts sent to him. He tried to focus on how worried Kurt was. I didn't know that he considered Mike such a good friend. Blaine tickled Kurt's back with his fingers trying to relax him a bit.

"Alright class, " Mr. Shuester stood up from seat and clapped his hands together. "Love songs. Glad you could make it Finn."

Finn stalked into the room and sent a wary glance to Kurt. They are both so worried about him. Blaine felt his stomach churn with displeasure.

"Love songs, why are love songs so popular can anyone tell me?"

Blaine couldn't bother to listen to anyone's answers. I wish he would just show up. God, why can't he just-

"Hello Mike, thank you for joining us."

Blaine jerked up from his reverie to stare at the new arrival. Mike looked monotone, placid, and indifferent, like a completely blank canvas. But if I look at him closely I can see something in his eyes. Irritated? Angry? Annoyed? Sad? Blaine felt an urge to stand up and shout. Instead he bit down on his lip and felt heat rising as he looked at the Asian. His stare was not returned, in fact, Michael's eyes avoided everyone as he walked up to the top of the classroom and sat alone.

Blaine heard Tina scoff and Kurt shifted uncomfortably beside him.

"Where was I?" Mr. Shue continued.

Not long after they were told to return to their partners for practice. Blaine closed his eyes and tilted his head back and let out a small irritated groan. Tina had her face set in glare as she walked up to him.

"I'm think that we should sing Hate(I Really Don't Like You) by Plain White T's."

"That's not a love song," Blaine smirked, trying to keep the mood light. It would not succeed though, the thick hateful tension she was sending his way was overwhelming.

"It has the word love in it and it fits us perfectly."

"I don't hate you though," Blaine confessed. He actually liked Tina for her outspoken style and her over-shadowed voice.

"I wasn't talking about you," Blaine followed her glare to Mike who was staring at Dave with his eyes determinedly looking at his partner and no one else. "But yeah…I hate you too."

"I'm sorry that you feel the way."

"You know what?" Tina whispered loudly to him, leaning forward. "This is all your fault." Tina spun around and stormed out of the room. Blaine didn't want to follow her, he wanted to turn around and confront Mike but I can talk to him later. I better catch up to her. He quickly stood up and followed her out the door.

"Tina, I'm sorry if I…." his voice trailed off as he stared at the sight which was now before him. Kurt was being kissed. Blaine's boyfriend was being kissed. Finn Hudson had his hands tightly around Kurt's waste and his mouth was pressed firmly against the smaller boy's in an undeniably passionate, lustful kiss.

Blaine felt his world go dim and the sounds around him blur as Kurt pushed Finn away and stared at him in shock and fear. He blinked and his mouth fell open.

Numb, despondent.

He tore his eyes away from the two and followed Tina, who was too distracted by her own rage to notice the infidelity taking place.

"Blaine," he heard Kurt's voice say in the back of his mind. Blaine held up a hand and he followed Tina down the hall.

"Tina," Blaine felt like he was underwater, he was choking all the air around him like he wasn't meant to breath it. Tina twirled around and glared at him.

"You know, Mike didn't even want to be your friend. He was only your friend because I wanted him to spy on you. But you," she pointed at him threateningly, he stepped back a little. He was slowly coming back to reality as every word she shouted slapped him in the face. "You, ruined him."

"How," Blaine felt tears building up in his eyes and his heart was starting to burn with heartache. "Why?"

"You made him-"

"No not you Tina," Blaine closed his eyes and turned around. "Why Kurt?" He opened his eyes and looked at the two of them. Finn and Kurt stared at him both with the same torturously guilty look on their faces.

Heart broken, betrayed.

"Blaine…I…" Kurt stepped forward, his eyes shimmering with tears and his nose red.

"If you didn't cared about me at all," Blaine held his hands up and backed away from Kurt. "You would have ended it before you did this." He shook his head and his chin quivered. "I have been nothing but faithful to you Kurt," he bit down on the inside of his cheek and looked up at the ceiling, trying to keep the tears down. "I thought you respected me enough. Respect us enough. And you…" he turned to Finn who flinched. "You made me believe that you could be trusted. Kurt told me how you rejected him last year. I thought that you were safe company. Was it all a lie to keep me from suspecting? Am I the punch line in a cruel joke?"

He backed away a little more.

"I didn't want you find out this way," Kurt's voice was strained.

"Oh, how exactly were you planning on telling me?"

"Dude, calm down."

"Not helping Finn, I was going to tell you Blaine."

"He didn't really have a choice. Mike was going to spill the beans anyways," Finn muttered, folding his arms.

Blaine suddenly felt nauseated.

Heart…shattered.

"He knew. Mike knew? How long? Don't answer that. I don't want to know. I don't want to know," tears were pouring down his cheeks and he turned away from them and walked away quickly, ignoring their shouts after him as he pushed through the double doors and out into the fresh winter air.

Everyone, all of these people that I cared about and trusted have been lying to me. But why you Michael? Why did you lie to me?
