A/N: And we're interrupted once more…
"Look, it's—it's not that—ah—"
"Mmhmm?"
"Not that I'm—oh g—not—attracted to you, I—" A gasp. "Oh-god-would-you-please-stop-doing-that!"
"Come on, Blaine. It'll be incredible."
"I highly doubt that!"
"Have you ever tried it before?"
"No. And I—I don't want to. I don't even know you that well!"
"You're so tense. Relax."
"…Y-…
…wh… what did you… just…?"
"Shh. It's alright. I just want to try—"
"—Are you Blaine Anderson?"
.
A groan.
.
"…dammit… Okay, look, think about it and tell me what you decide."
"I've decided no. I— Andrew! I've decided no!"
.
.
"…I don't believe he heard you."
"It doesn't seem anyone hears me here.
…
I'm sorry, I've been rude. I am Blaine Anderson, yes. I'm sorry for looking so…"
"Wes Montgomery."
"Wes. I don't think I've noticed you around before."
"You've only been here a week."
"I…? Oh. Right. A week, yes.
…
Sorry."
"It's not a problem. This place messes with your head."
"Tell me about it."
"For you more than others, I would suppose.
…
I only meant that I'd think it might get overpowering for you at times."
.
.
"…Please don't tell me you want to experiment, too. Because I'm not interested."
"No, that's not… You looked like you needed some help."
.
"…Thank you."
"You're welcome.
…
…
…I'm sorry that he did that to you."
"It's not like you told him to do it."
"I know. I just…
…
I can't command you like that, just so you're aware. I'm… not as talented as some of the others."
"'Talent'—that's what you guys call it?"
.
"Look, I understand how hard this is for you. Being away from your home, your family—it's painful. But everyone's safer with you here. You belong here. With all that you can feel, you have to be able to feel that."
.
"I don't know what I feel in this place.
…
Listen, I should probably get back to my room. Thank you again."
"If you need anything, don't hesitate to come find me."
"Thank you."
"Don't thank me. You shouldn't have to deal with—things like that."
"Your name was…?"
"Wes. Wes Montgomery."
"Wes. It was good to meet you."
"Likewise. Welcome to Dalton Academy, Blaine."
"… Thrilled to be here."
