AN: So you all get a bonus drabble today. This one is a bit of Finn's thoughts during a scene from the episode "Furt". Hope you enjoy. Inspired by lyrics from "The Other Side Of The World" by KT Tunstall
"Tell him, Kurt.*"
"Tell me what?*" Burt demands.
"Tell him, or I will.*"
Looking down at him, I can tell I'm forcing Kurt into doing something that he doesn't want to do and I wonder if he's mentioned any of the bullying to his father. As Kurt explains the situation to his father I wonder if perhaps I should have mentioned something to Burt earlier than this.
"There's something more,*" Burt demands when Kurt has finished. I wonder if he's guessing or if he really knows there is more that Kurt isn't telling him.
I can see the hesitancy in Kurt's face though. Burt is right, there is more to the situation than even I'm aware of but I'm unprepared for what he says.
"He threatened to kill me.*"
The words aren't much more than a whisper but given their impact they might as well have been shouted. I had no idea that things were that bad. Rachel's plea for me to step in and stand up for Kurt comes back to me now and I realize why she had been so upset with my answer. Though I doubt she had known about the death threat, she had realized that the situation had been escalating.
"What?*"
The disbelief that I'm feeling slips out in that one word. If I had known it was that bad - but then it shouldn't have had to reach that point. All the excuses that I had given to Rachel seem inadequate to even me now. Kurt was my friend, and soon to be stepbrother, no matter what grief it would have brought me from the football team, I should have stood up for him.
