AN: Okay, so this one and the following ones all go along with the Drabble I wrote earlier called "Call In The Night". It's an AU version of Season 4. Inspired by lyrics from "Cross My Heart" by Marianas Trench.
Reaching the apartment that I had only been to once, I knocked on the door. The request for me to come had been a surprise and I wish the circumstances were different. But when Finn had told me what had happened and said Kurt had requested that I come to the city, I didn't have to think about it. I would drop anything at Kurt's request, even though he wasn't happy with me right now. Not seeing him, or hearing his voice was killing me and I was at a loss of how to fix it, though perhaps this was my chance.
Finn answering the door didn't much surprise me seeing as he had been the one to call me. I knew he wouldn't be leaving Kurt's side any time soon. The fact that he stepped out into the hallway instead of inviting me inside did however.
"What's going on?" I asked, panicking at the thought that Kurt might have changed his mind.
"We need to talk."
"Did Kurt change his mid?"
"No, but I wish he would. I don't think you being here is a good idea but he's not listening to me so I'm hoping you will."
"Finn, I know I messed up. I know I hurt him but I promise you it won't happen again. Cross my heart."
"Then listen to me. Kurt's in a very vulnerable place right now. If you really do love him, you won't use this as an opportunity to get back together with him. Just talk to him, make what ever apologies you need to, and be supportive but if he mentions you two getting back together tell him you'll talk about it later. He needs to heal from this, both physically and emotionally, before he can really make that decision for himself."
I wanted Kurt back desperately but I could see the logic in Finn's request. Kurt didn't need a boyfriend right now, he just needed a friend.
I nodded. "I can do that," I promised.
Finn nodded and then turned to open the apartment door, motioning me into the place ahead of him.
"He's in his room," Finn said, waving a hand in the indicated direction.
Nodding I headed that direction. "Kurt," I called out softly as I entered the partitioned off area.
He was asleep and taking in the puffy eyes and bruised face, I understood what Finn meant. I knew Kurt, and right now he wouldn't really be searching for love - just security. Walking toward the bed, I perched on the edge carefully, trying not to wake him, and reached for the hand without an ace bandage on it. I'd be his safety net for now and work on winning his love back when he had healed.
