"The Hummel Clan"
School life
We've been attending Dalton for a week now and so far so good, no fights, no homophobes, no problems and no one has had any problem with us being the sons of a mob boss. Everyone is very accepting, or maybe everyone is scared of us, whatever the reason we're starting to become part of the Dalton family.
"Guys, move your asses you're going to be late" Nate says sticking his head in the room
"Nate, you can't rush perfection" says Kurt as he styles his hair to perfection
"I know, I know, but you seriously have twenty minutes and you're not even changed yet" says the brunette
"Oh, who cares Nate, even if we're late the teacher won't say anything we're Hummel's, nobody messes with us" I say and pat his shoulder as I move to the mirror to fix my tie
"Don't be cocky and besides your father gave us strict orders to keep you in line and guess what?" he says smiling at me through the mirror
"What?" I ask with fake amusement
"He's the boss so get moving before I decide to call him and tell him how bad his precious children are being" he says and shoves me out of the room
"What about Kurt?" I whine
"Sam will get him'- he says and pulls me aside-"how has he been doing at night?"
I frown "Not very good, he's been having night terrors for the past few nights but refuses to talk to me about them"
"Have you told Blaine? Maybe he can help" he says and leads me to the kitchen
"Of course not, you know how Kurt is, if I tell him Kurt will hate me for making him look weak" I say and get some coffee for me and Kurt
"He'll find out eventually and for someone to think that Kurt is weak is impossible, that kid carries an entire clan on his shoulders, he's been taking care of you and your father since Elizabeth died and has seen things that no one should have seen at such a young age" he says sadly
"Which is why we have to take care of him in what little way we can and if that means not telling people who could or couldn't help him with his night terrors then we'll do so, which means not telling Blaine, am I clear?" I demand
"Yeah" he says as we hear Sam dragging Kurt out of the room
"Good, now wipe the sad look off your face before Kurt sees you" I say and turn brightly to my brother. My smile falters when I see the dark bags under his eyes and as I take in his crinkled clothes but say nothing.
"Good morning'- I say and glare at Sam and Peter over Kurt's shoulder when I see that they want to say something about the way my brother looks-'here's your coffee"
"Morning and thanks" he says and slumps in the chair
"Do you want anything to eat?" asks Peter worriedly
"Don't" Kurt growls
We all stare at him, not understanding where the hostility was coming from. "Don't, what?" asks Peter
"I know I look like hell and you already know why but don't you dare start the pity party. Yeah I haven't been sleeping and I feel like shit but stop worrying, it's not like you're not used to it so stop looking so worried and sad before someone else notices" he says and glares at all of us.
"Do you think they won't notice when the diva of the school shows up for class looking like that?" asks Cam and gestures to Kurt
"I'll say I'm sick or something, don't forget I can be very convincing" he smirks and we all lift our hands in defeat
"Fine but do us a favor and don't push yourself to hard today and there's no way you're going to Glee practice today and before you start bickering'-Peter glares at Kurt when he opens his mouth to protest-'that is none negotiable, you either do as I say or I'll call your father, got it?"
"Got it" he mumbles and we all get up to get to our first class
Thankfully we don't have any classes with any of the warblers in the morning because Kurt looks ready to drop at any second and I'm pretty sure they would have made a fuss over it. The bodyguards and I keep glancing at him during math, English and Physics, all of us hoping that he'd fall asleep during class and holding our breath every time he would hold his head, fearing that a migraine was coming.
"Kurt, come on we can skip lunch and just go lay down" I beg when the final class is over
He stops in the hallway and turns to me, considering what I had said, he's about to say something when some yells "Kurt! Gabe!" and I groan since there was no way that Kurt would go lay down now.
We all turn and come face to face with Jeff, Nick, Wes and David. "Hi guys" says Kurt
They don't say anything and look Kurt up and down for a few seconds before Jeff brakes the silence "Wow, you look like shit Kurt"
"Jeff!" the rest of them yell.
"What? It's true and you know it and besides I point it out just because I'm worried and want to know what's wrong with Kurtsie" he says innocently
"I'm not feeling well Jeff" Kurt says and smiles at the blonde
"Do you know what the best medicine is my friend?" asks Jeff as he drapes his arm around Kurt and start leading him to the dining hall
"What is?"
"Having lunch with Blaine" he says and stirs Kurt towards our usual table
He laughs and sits down "True but I'm not hungry"
"Well too bad because you're eating some soup or I'll start crying and trust me none of us want to hear me cry, I'm too cute for tears" says Jeff and bounces off to find Blaine and soup
"Nick do something about your boyfriend" says Kurt with his head in his hands
"Under normal circumstances I would but right now his craziness is right and therefore should not be stopped" he says and also leaves to get his food, the others nodding along and following the brunette
The bodyguards and I sit down and Kurt groans "What now?"
"Nothing, it's just funny to see that your plan is working against you" says Peter smiling
"Shut up" he says and lifts his head to glare at us
"Kurt! Look what I found" yells Jeff, holding Blaine in one hand and a tray of food in the other
We laugh and I say to Kurt "Looks like Jeff found your medicine"
"Hey babe, what's wrong?" asks Blaine when he takes a seat next to Kurt
"I'm sick and Jeff and the others are bothering me" he says and lays his head on Blaine's shoulder
"What are you doing to my boyfriend?" Blaine asks when the rest of the warblers sit down
"What did we do?" asks Thad
"Kurt said you're bothering him and he's sick, what kind of jerks bother a sick kid?" Blaine asks
The whole table turn to look at Kurt, who is now is Blaine's lap and has his eyes closed, looking small and very fragile. "Wow he looks sick" states Thad
"And we weren't bothering him, we were trying to get him to eat some soup" says Nick and passes the soup toward him, shooting him a look that screamed 'help-us-get-him-to-eat'
Blaine rubs my brother's back and asks "Is it true you don't want to eat babe?"
He shakes his head and says "I'm not hungry"
"Do you want me to start crying?" asks Jeff
"No but I still don't want to eat" he says defiantly
"Come on Kurt, just eat a little bit and we'll all leave you alone" says Blaine and grabs Kurt's chin to make him look up "Please" he pouts
"Fine" my brother finally says and we all cheer when he picks up the spoon and start to eat
"So when do we get to hear you guys sing?" asks Wes
"We'll get back to you on that one" I say and they all look at me with puppy eyes "Don't even try, our voices belong elsewhere"
"So?" asks Andrew between bites
"If you hear them you'll want them and you can't have them" offers Sam
"What if we promise not to ask you to join?" asks David hopefully
"You'll break that promise" says Peter
"But-"says Wes but is cut off by Nate
"Trust us, we know and you won't be able to resist yourselves when you hear them, Gabe sing with so much emotion that your feelings go haywire when you listen and Kurt sings like an angel" he says and the warblers can't say more because the bell rings.
"Well, we'll see you guys later" I say
"Bye babe" says Blaine and kisses my brother
"Hey, I kind of need my twin back so I can leave Blaine"
He breaks the kiss and pouts at me "But he's my boyfriend I get to kiss him all I want"
"Yeah but not when you're going to make me be late for class" I say and pull Kurt off his lap
"Bye Blaine" Kurt manages to say before I pull him out of the room and take off believing that the bodyguard would follow.
"Guys wait a minute" Sam says and stops us from leaving the table
"Why aren't you with the twins?" asks Jeff
"You want to hear them sing, right?" asks Peter
"Of course we do bit they won't show us" whines Wes
"Well, since Kurt is sick we won't be letting them go to Glee practice today so being the music addicts that they are, they'll be practicing here at eight if you want to join us" says Nate, smirking.
"Won't they stop when they see us?" I ask
"You'll just have to make sure they don't see you until they're done, won't you?" says Cam and they all leave the room
"Yes we will" I say and look around the table to find the rest of the warblers smiling and nodding
"Guess we'll meet at eight at the practice room" I say and we all nod and leave for class.
Throughout the day I was bouncing with excitement and was counting the hours until I could go and listen to my boyfriend and brother sing. We all met at the dorm at seven and wasted our time playing videogames until it was time to finally go to the practice room.
"Is it time yet?" asks Jeff bouncing in the sofa
We all glanced at the clock and noticed we had ten minutes to get to the room "It seems so" I say and we all run out of the dorms and towards the practice room.
We stop at the door which was left ajar by someone and we push it open a little more so that we could all hear and sit on the floor just as they're about to start.
"So who's going to sing?" we hear Sam ask
"I am" says Gabe and we hear movement inside the room and instruments being picked up and tuned, after five minutes we hear Gabe say "Ready?"
"Yeah" and the music begins
Stay with me,
baby stay with me,
Tonight don't leave me alone.
Walk with me,
come and walk with me,
To the edge of all we've ever known.
I can see you there with the city lights,
Fourteenth floor, pale blue eyes.
I can breathe you in.
Two shadows standing by the bedroom door,
No, I could not want you more than I did right then,
As our heads leaned in.
Well, I'm not sure what this is gonna be,
But with my eyes closed all I see
Is the skyline, through the window,
The moon above you and the streets below.
"Damn, now I see what he means, he makes me feel everything" says Wes
"I know" I whisper and close my eyes
Hold my breath as you're moving in,
Taste your lips and feel your skin.
When the time comes, baby don't run, just kiss me slowly.
Stay with me, baby stay with me,
Tonight don't leave me alone.
She shows me everything she used to know,
Picture frames and country roads,
When the days were long and the world was small.
She stood by as it fell apart,
Separate rooms and broken hearts,
But I won't be the one to let you go.
Oh, I'm not sure what this is gonna be,
But with my eyes closed all I see
Is the skyline, through the window,
The moon above you and the streets below.
Hold my breath as you're moving in,
Taste your lips and feel your skin.
When the time comes, baby don't run, just kiss me slowly.
Don't run away...
And it's hard to love again,
When the only way it's been,
When the only love you know
Just walked away...
If it's something that you want,
Darling you don't have to run,You don't have to go ...
"We need him, with his voice we could win regional's" says David
"But they'd never leave New Directions" I say
Just stay with me, baby stay with me,
Well, I'm not sure what this is gonna be
But with my eyes closed all I seeIs the skyline, through the window,
The moon above you and the streets below. [Don't let go]
Hold my breath as you're moving in,
Taste your lips and feel your skin.
When the time comes, baby don't run, just kiss me slowly.
Oh, I'm not sure what this is gonna go,
But in this moment all I knowIs the skyline, through the window,
The moon above you and the streets below. [Baby, don't let go]
Hold my breath as you're moving in,
Taste your lips and feel your skin.
When the time comes, baby don't run, just kiss me slowly.
"Wow" I whisper
"Yeah, come on they finished and we need to talk" says Wes and stands up to enter the room
"Gabe that was magnificent" he says and the twins whirl around to stare at us
"What are you guys doing here?" demands Gabe
"We heard music so we came to see who it was and we couldn't leave once you started singing" says David
"You sing beautifully" says Jeff
"Thanks" says Gabe and looks away when he starts to blush
"I know we said that we wouldn't but we'd be dumb not to. Please join us, I mean I know you love the New Directions but you go to Dalton now and we need you, they have enough talent with Rachel and you guys would fit great with us" says Thad
Kurt sighs "Look, we would never voluntarily leave them and for us to do so would only mean that our father stepped in for safety reasons and until that happen we belong to them but if something were to happen our voices are yours"
"We talked to them and they said that we could join the warblers if that were to happen" says Gabe
"We want you guys to be safe and with us, so we'll just have to wait and see" I say and go hug Kurt. I rest my head on his shoulder and ask "So, when do I get to hear my angel sing?"
Please review; tell me what you think :)
