Synchronized Melodies

Arrangements: Season 2 Episode 7 The Substitute

"Hey, I'm calling you for the tenth time, B. Where are you? Nothing's wrong, I just miss you and you haven't visited in a while, and I... I just miss you. Please call me back, bye!" She hung up.

"Blaine Anderson, you better call me back the SECOND you get this message. I am deadly serious. You have been MIA for 2 1/2 weeks. Call. Me. Back."

Twenty minutes later Rachel's phone rang.

"Blaine?"

"Rachel what's going on? Are you all okay?"

"Well, I guess you wouldn't know, you've been a complete recluse! No of us have heard from you for weeks! What the hell!" Shit, Rae was mad if she was cussing. Honestly he hadn't even thought much about it, he had just been so caught up with Kurt.

Sure he's had tons of friends before, but Kurt was different. They seemed to really connect. I mean, sure he had that with Rachel, but she was his sister- it was different. Kurt was a male friend who he could really talk to- even more than Rachel about some things.

"Look, I'm sorry, it wasn't intentional. I've just been really busy-"

"Yeah, going to RENT with Kurt!" she accused.

"How-"

"Mercedes told me. Why would you go with him when you promised you'd go with me?"

"I can still go with you Rachel, and I was going to! It was a great performance."

"That's not the point- you've been ignoring your family for a boy!"

"But that's exactly what you do with- do I detect jealousy? Rae, you know I'll always be there for you, but Kurt is having a really hard time right now being bullied. I know what it's like, you do too." Logically she knew that, but it still her. She supposed she was just so used to having Blaine to herself. She never was good at sharing with other kids unless it was with her brothers.

"I'm sorry," she mumbled. "Just, please keep in touch more and don't forget about us, okay?"

"Promise, and I'm still up for seeing RENT again, if you'd want to," Blaine said, knowing that she wouldn't turn down a chance to see a live musical, or even a taped one for that matter. "The Mark they cast completely-"

"Of course!" She interrupted before he could add an adjective. "But don't say anything else about it, because I want to be able to analyze it with fresh eyes and no outside influences."

A/n: Alright, so I still updated once today, yay? (Because it's still before Midnight by my clock- better late than never, right? Right.)

Okay, so expect your emails to go a little crazy in the next few days as I try to speed us through second season in two days. Will that happen? We shall see…

Cheers!
