Chapter Twenty-One: The One with the Epilogue and Sequel Spoilers...


Epilogue: ND and Troubletones Graduation

Their time together was limited. Kurt didn't want to be at McKinley, not with the entire New Directions sitting around them. They had elected to sit with San and Britt, given that the two would be flying to New York tonight with Kurt and Blaine. Blaine noticed that his boyfriend had tensed up when he saw Burt and Carole arrive. How could he come to Finn's graduation, but not Kurt's? Blaine thought, as Principal Figgins got up on the stage to begin the ceremony. Azimio could be heard at the back of the large group of graduating students, and Kurt tensed further. They knew coming to McKinley would be a risk, but they had the Troubletones, and Wes and David for whatever reason so they knew nothing could happen to them... Figgins was talking in his droning voice, Schuester and the other teachers sitting behind him on the stage, watching their students who were graduating. Brittany was smiling and whispering in Santana's ear about something Kurt couldn't make out. Blaine was holding his hand tight, knowing it was hard for his boyfriend to be back in this place. Finn and Burt were talking, but when he spotted his brother, he excused himself from the family to move over and talk to Kurt and Blaine. No one was paying attention to the principal, which wasn't shocking to Kurt, because no one at this school listens to anyone. Of course, Quinn had been named Valedictorian, and Kurt and Blaine stood along with the others, clapping and cheering when her name was called, and when the others were called to get their diploma's and whatnot. When Quinn stood to make her speech, Kurt gripped his boyfriend's hand tight...

'I've been wanting to say this for a long time, and I know that now we've graduated and it's all over that I can finally get off my chest what I've wanted to for years... This school sucks. It's teachers suck, the curriculum sucks, and I'm am so glad that I'm leaving because I don't want to be here anymore... I don't want to be here, because this place is nothing but bad luck. Sure, once upon a time I was popular, head cheerleader with the football boyfriend, but people change... I've changed, and I don't want to go back to the person I used to be... I've been taught, over the last year, that there is more than one side to every person... McKinley isn't a nice place... it's a terrible highschool, filled with terrible teachers, and a certain Glee Club, who has no respect for anyone, because they're all self-centred and only focussed on winning. So I'm glad that I'm leaving, and I'm sure the rest of the Troubletones will agree with me... Class of 2011, we're free!'


Sequel Spoilers: Random Order

1)

Brittany and Santana walked in the front door, carrying bags of food, and laughing about something they'd seen down the street. Kurt was in the lounge, working on an assignment for his fashion class, whilst Blaine lounged on the sofa, his swollen black eye standing out against his otherwise tanned complexion. There had been alot of debate about whether or not taking the hospital route was the best option, but they'd decided against it. I thought we'd finished with all of this shit? Kurt thought, as he kissed his boyfriend lightly, lingering a little longer, before Santana's voice could be heard from the kitchen, laughing at something Britt had said. She'd been so pissed off when Blaine had come home with a black eye, and threatened to call Puckerman if he didn't spill what happened... he did, of course, they had no secrets from each other... they'd been living together for two months, going to school, being able to live without fear of people judging them. Finn was coming to stay with them for his break from OSU, and he was planning on bringing Noah, which both Kurt and Blaine were looking forward too... the curly haired man had broken down and told the Latina what had happened, which led to Santana calling Puck, and the mow hawked man demanding he be allowed to come and stay with them for OSU's week break with Finn. She had nothing against it, but Blaine had escaped to the bathroom to put make up on, to cover the bruise...


2)

The knock on the door was what startled Kurt from his homework fazes. Blaine answered the door, and silence and tension immediately filled the apartment. Burt Hummel stood awkwardly in the doorway, a kind of crooked smile on his face, as he waited for Blaine to invite him in, which wasn't going to happen, and even though he knew that, he still wished some part of the man who was dating his son would forgive him. Kurt appeared behind his boyfriend, glasses perched on his nose, book in his hands, freezing when he looked up and saw the burly man standing there. It was lucky that the girls were out for the day, because Santana would surely have gone Lima Heights Adjacent right now. Blaine wasn't too far off doing that either, but the silence was killing them all. Finally, against his better judgement, Burt spoke...

'I just came by to give you your birthday present Kurt... Happy Birthday,' Burt said, handing the envelope to Blaine, who took it

'Is that it? You came here to say happy birthday? You have nothing else to say?' Kurt asked, taking the envelope from Blaine, and proceeding to open it

'What do you want me to say Kurt?'

'Tell me why you didn't come to graduation? I saw you at Finn's... tell me why, after all this time, you show up here, expecting me to take this from you... why?'

'I thought you didn't want me there...' Burt replied, looking into his son's eyes to express his emotions...

'I invited you... just forget it,' Kurt said, slamming the door closed in the man's face...


3)

The invitation came the day Blaine had everything worked out... he was the first one home. Santana and Brittany were out looking for their own place close by, and Kurt had a late class at the uni, so he would have enough time to prepare everything. The shiny silver envelope was the first thing that caught Blaine's attention when he picked up their mail from the front desk. Kurt and Blaine was scrawled neatly on the front, and if Blaine didn't know better, he would have thought it was an invitation to visit the queen or something... geez, I must be a child at heart Blaine thought, opening the invitation as he stepped into the elevator...

Blaine threw the invitation down onto the bench, and stared at it for a few minutes, before picking up his cell to call Santana. Even on paper, Rachel can still sound self-centred and stuck up Blaine thought, as the phone rang out, and he was left with Santana's voice mail. He'd have to wait till Kurt gets home to talk to his boyfriend about attending, but all the plans he'd had for tonight suddenly didn't matter anymore. Blaine moved to his and Kurt's bedroom, and hid the ring box in his draw where Kurt wouldn't find it, before turning to pick up his laptop and get started on his assignment... way to ruin everything Rachel Blaine said to himself as he slumped into the study, blocking out the invitation on the counter...


4)

Christmas in the Hummel-Anderson-Lopez-Pierce house was a fabulous affair, according to Kurt, who had spent two weeks preparing the meal and the decorations, and everything else they would need for Christmas and New Years. Blaine had offered to help, but had been banished, along with Britt to the lounge, where the two were snuggled together, watching re-runs of Friends and laughing when something silly happened, and Brittany would say something that would just make Blaine crack up. Finn had called, and said he wouldn't be able to make it, because he and Rachel were staying in Cincinnati for their first Christmas together. Burt, Carole and Rachel's dads would be joining them, so they wouldn't be able to make it. Kurt didn't seem fazed by that at all. He was just happy that the Troubletones were all attending, and that he'd get to see all his friends again... I knew he was missing them... I wish he would tell me these things... Blaine thought, remembering back to what Dr. Paul had said in their last session about telling each other things... Blaine wondered if Kurt had even remembered... his boyfriend had been forgetting alot of things recently, and it was worrying even the stony faced Santana.

'Are you sure you two don't want help in there?' Blaine asked, standing in the doorway to the kitchen

'What did I say Blaine? Go and keep Britt, Company...' Kurt replied, not looking at him

'I'm not going back in there, until you tell me why you've been so distant lately?' Blaine said, forcing both of them to turn and face the tenor, pain clear in their eyes

'I'm... I got a call from... Karofsky is dead... they found him in his cell, strangled himself...' Kurt replied softly.


5)

'You know Kurt, there are only a few people in this world who have what you have... don't lose that because of something stupid...'

'San, your relationship with your father... was it hard to get that back?' Kurt asked, looking up at the Latina

'No, but your situation is different... Don't feel pressured to forgive him... I wouldn't,'

'I just wonder sometimes, if I had of done things differently...'

'Kurt, it is not your fault. You have to stop blaming yourself. It was bound to happen sooner or later. He only has himself to blame. But if you really want my opinion... do you love him? Do you think you can ever forgive him for what he did? If the answer to both of those are yes, then you have your answer... what'll it be?' Santana asked, sipping her coffee, eyebrow raised... when Kurt didn't answer she added 'thought so' and stood, moving to get another piece of cake


6)

Blaine had it perfect. Well, he thought he had it perfect. Wes and David had been helping, but they were still going at five that night, and Kurt was due back from Santana's at six, meaning they had an hour, and the only thing they'd done, was set up the table. Wes had seen the new COD game that Kurt had brought for when Finn and Puck stay, and couldn't resist playing it with David. Blaine had told himself they'd have a break for twenty minutes, but when he saw the clock, he jumped up off the couch he was studying on, and started yelling, and throwing things around. It was only after he'd switched the TV off, and forced the two ex-Warblers into the dining room, did they fully comprehend what Blaine was saying... should of asked Nick and Jeff... Blaine thought, as David and Wes pulled plates and candles and cutlery from draws and cupboards...

'Do you really need all of this? You're only celebrating valentine's day...' David asked

'It's a special valentine's day, one we'll remember for the rest of our lives...' Blaine said, hearing the squeal (seriously) from Wes, who ran over and hugged Blaine, lifting him off the ground, and spinning him around, whilst David just watched on, gaping

'You're proposing? Our wittle Blainey and Kurtie are finally getting hitched...' Wes said, releasing Blaine

'I get it now man... let's make this perfect hey Wessy?'
