AN: Just a little drabble getting into David's head when he left Breadsticks in "Heart". Inspired by lyrics from "White Flag" by Dido


Just friends. I never knew that two words could hurt so much. I had laid my feelings out clearly only to have them rebuked. Though who could really blame him. I had treated him terribly. He had a boyfriend. Why would he give that up for me?

And then there was Nick. What rumors would he start now? I may have feelings for Kurt, and I may have gotten the courage to admit them to him, but I definitely wasn't ready to come out.

As I opened the driver's door of my car and slid behind the wheel, I wondered how I was ever going to face Kurt again after this debacle. And yet, I would at some point. Our paths were sure to pass again.

Perhaps when that time came, I might be able to bury all this deep enough, that the just friends suggestion would be possible. Maybe one day, but not today.
