Dave

I shut the door silently behind me, and turned to make my way upstairs. Unfortunately I ended up coliding with Lauren on the landing. 'Dave? What's with you sneaking about? You trying to avoid me or something?' she questioned.

I shook off the accusation. 'No, no. I just... erm... I have a load of homework I need to get done, didn't want to get distracted,' I muttered and rushed into my room before she could ask any more. I closed the door behind me and dumped my bag on my bed, my books spilling out onto the sheets. I was right, I did have a load of homework, but I wasn't quite set on doing it yet. Instead I sat at my desk and fished my phone out of my pocket.

I sat there for a few minutes, thinking of something I could text to Kurt. I finally settled with

'Hey Fancy, thanks for today! Up to much?'

As soon as I sent it I regretted it. I was terrible at starting conversations. I was sure he wouldn't reply, but just as I was about to start on my homework my phone started vibrating.

From Fancy: No prob, Dave! And just off to meet Blaine, you?

Firstly, wow! Since when did I go from Karofsky to Dave? And second of all, Blaine? Who the hell was Blaine?

'Blaine? Is he your boyfriend?'

Only when the text had sent did I realise that I'd texted what I was thinking. Damn it, what was Kurt going to think?

From Fancy: Haha, no just a really close friend. Maybe one day though ;)

I couldn't help but feel slightly jealous and I had no idea why. I quickly text back.

'Oh cool. Good luck then, have a good time :)'

I put my phone in a drawer of my bedside table and took out my school books. I really did need to get this homework done, but I couldn't help but get slightly distracted with thoughts of Kurt and this Blaine kid. What was wrong with me?

Kurt

I put my phone in my pocket after reading the last text I received.

From Dave: Oh cool. Good luck then, have a good time :)

He was deffinately a lot nicer now that he'd told me about being gay. When I told him not to act like an asshole anymore I didn't think he'd start being this nice to me, I just thought he'd ignore me.

I spotted Blaine waiting in his usual spot outside the coffee shop and sauntered up to him. He smiled as I approached.

'Hey Kurt, you look happy. Who's made you smile?' he questioned.

'Hey, well I have a story to tell you, but you have to promise not to tell anyone. I can trust you, right?' He nodded and we went inside to buy our coffee. We took a seat at the table and he looked at me with question.

'So what's going on?' he asked eagerly.

'Well you know Karofsky?' I asked him. He nodded, looking concerned. Of course Blaine knew all about the bullying that I'd been enduring over the past few weeks. He'd become a kind of therapist recently, talking it over with me and making me feel so much better about myself. I continued, 'So today, he came up to me and he wanted to speak to me. I was kind of suspicous at first, I thought it was a trick or something, but at the same time he seemed really nervous, I could tell something was deffinately up and I wanted to hear what he had to say. Anyway so I took him to the choir room and he … well he came out to me.'

Blaine's jaw dropped. 'H-he did what?' Blaine stammered.

'Came out to me,' I repeated. 'Explained everything that was happening, about why he was bullying me because he hated how I was out and proud without being judged by my friends and he apologised. I asked if he'd come out to anyone else and he said no.'

'What did you say?' Blaine asked.

'I told him I'd support him, as long as he stopped being an asshole. If he wanted to come out to his parents or his friends or even the whole school, then I would support him but I wouldn't force him into anything. I know what he's going through sort of. Not that I really had to come out but I know how he feels about not wanting to be judged because people find out the truth about you.'

Blaine nodded, raising his arm to take a sip of his coffee. He put it back down and then muttered 'I won't tell anybody by the way and I'll help you support him, I' m just a bit worried. What if he uses this to get to you. He knows you'll start trusting him, he knows you'll support him. What if he uses it to his advantage?'

I thought this over for a minute before asking 'How could he use it to his advantage?'

'Well, he could ask you to meet him somewhere and show up with his friends. Or he could use his 'support sessions' to bully you. I don't know, Kurt. Just promise you'll be careful about this.'

I nodded. 'If he wanted to beat me up then he had plenty of oppurtunities today. And I think he's too scared of me telling everyone he's gay. I'll still be carefully though don't worry.' I gave him a confident smile and he smiled back. 'Anyway, enough about my day, what's been going on at Dalton recently?'
