AN: So if I do the sequel, I need some back story for how the Warblers turn on Klaine so some of that is done here. Enjoy.
Chapter 91
They caught up with Wes and David who had stopped to admire a costume shop. "Can we go inside?" Wes asked.
"Please?" David added, both of them shooting puppy dog eyes at the group.
Kurt grimaced but added his reluctant agreement to the rest of the groups and followed them in, trying to not touch the various costumes made of polyester and plastic.
"Look at this!" David exclaimed, pulling on a zombie mask.
"Ahh, a zombie! I'll kill it." Wes said, pulling a prop flamethrower off the shelf and pointing it towards David who was pretending to attack a scared-looking Nick.
"They are such children." Kurt said, laughing a bit as he watched Blaine join David in being a zombie, walking towards Jeff to eat his brains. He pulled out his phone and stepped back, filming the five of them do an entire epic zombie battle within the confines of the store.
He got away with this for a few minutes until Blaine looked over at the sound of his giggling. "Human flesh. Get him!" Blaine said in his zombie voice. The hoard of them turned to Kurt and began moving towards him, doing the walk of a zombie.
Kurt laughed and backed away slowly. "Now boys, we don't need to do anything hasty now. Let's just stop and look at something else."
The others just grinned and kept moving forward. Kurt backed into a clothing rack and didn't get away before Blaine was upon him, attacking his hair. "Brains, brains!"
"Blaine! Stop that right now!" Kurt said, trying to swat Blaine away. The other four laughed as Kurt tried to evade Blaine's hands but couldn't as he was laughing too hard.
Finally Blaine stopped and gave Kurt a grin. Kurt mock-scowled at Blaine before finding a mirror. "What did you do to my head? It looks like a bird nested in it." He said, pulling out a comb and smoothing it out.
Blaine watched fondly as Kurt fixed his hair, giving him a very quick kiss as he finished before they turned to see that the Warblers had found swords.
"Oh, no. We shouldn't have come in here." Kurt sighed, seeing the exasperated expressions on the employee's faces as they watched the four teenagers fight their way around various customers and racks.
"I'll get Wes and David if you get Nick and Jeff." Blaine said before moving into the fray.
Kurt watched for a second before heading in to grab the swords from the other two. They managed to get all the swords put away within two minutes and after apologizing to the employees, they headed out of the store.
Making an executive decision, Kurt led them back the way they had come towards the food court, remembering the toy store that was just around the corner if they continued the way they had been going.
Blaine was laughing at something Jeff was telling him and Wes while David and Nick pulled Kurt to join them in conversation. "How are things at McKinley?" Nick asked, concerned.
Kurt smiled at him. "The same as I told you when we saw each other over Thanksgiving break. It's going well. And after this break, I'm hoping things will be better for Blaine too."
David asked. "What's been going on with Blaine?"
Kurt gave a sad smile at the back of his laughing boyfriend's head. "He's had a rough time adjusting to McKinley and I probably wasn't helping much. But we worked a lot out this break and he bonded with some of the New Directions people on his own at our New Year's party so it should be better."
Nick nodded. "I'm glad to hear that."
David sighed. "Me too. It was hard for him to make the decision to go to McKinley. He loves you a lot you know."
"I love him too. And I know how hard it was for him. I'm going to make sure this last half of the year is perfect for him. And that means he needs to see you guys more." Kurt said, bumping shoulders with Nick and speaking a little louder so Blaine could hear him.
Blaine turned around and nodded hard. "Agreed. We need to hang out more. I feel like I hardly see you guys."
Wes sniffled dramatically. "You feel like you hardly see them? Imagine how I feel."
David laughed, shoving Wes playfully. "Who had to be a year higher in school? Hmmm?"
Wes glared at him before turning to Blaine. "Well, you, Kurt and Niff are invited to come visit me anytime. But no David."
David turned pouty eyes on Wes. "You would really do that to me?"
Wes tried to ignore David but was unable to resist comforting him. "Fine, you can visit too."
David cheered and jumped onto Wes, sending them both crashing to the ground. The other four just stepped around them, knowing they would catch up in a moment and not wanting to be dragged down with them.
They got in line in the food court and Wes and David caught up in time to order something for themselves too. Grabbing their food, they sat at a table to eat and talk.
"So what have the Warblers been up to?" Blaine asked.
Nick and Jeff exchanged a glance. "Well, we've been getting ready for competition. And, well…" Nick trailed off.
"What is it?" Kurt asked.
"There's been a rather big change this year. You guys know Sebastian." Jeff said, taking in the angry looks that crossed both boys faces. "I'll take that as a yes. Well, he managed to overthrow the council this year."
"What?" The exclamation came not from the two who most hated Sebastian but from a surprised Wes. "Why is this the first I'm hearing of this?" He turned to face David.
David shrugged. "Because it's what the Warblers wanted. He called for a vote and everyone voted for it. As you know, council can't vote on matters involving the council and, here's where we ended up."
The three current Warblers looked sad and had a right to. They had been voted on to the council this year, David taking over for Wes while Nick and Jeff took over Thad and David's old places.
"You guys, I'm so sorry. That sucks." Blaine said softly, wondering if his transfer to McKinley had made it harder for the three of them to retain their power.
Jeff shrugged. "It's okay. I mean, it sucks but he doesn't do to bad a job. It's just…" He trailed off hesitantly.
"He's rude to us because we opposed him in the beginning. And that means he choreographs us behind everyone and we have no chance of solos. But at least he can't kick us out of the Warblers." Nick finished up, trying to brighten the conversation.
Wes shook his head. "This isn't right. Did you talk to the Headmaster about it? Do you want me to?"
David shook his head. "No, just leave it. Now, who wants to go catch a movie? I heard that new animated one is supposed to have some dirty jokes hidden in it."
Sensing that the three were uncomfortable, they allowed the conversation to change. However, Blaine exchanged a worried glance with Kurt, not liking the idea of a Sebastian with too much power.
AN: And so starts some of the Michael drama. Maybe. Please review.
