Prompt: Mark - "I don't know, I don't know what's going to happen...but I do know how I feel and I feel like I've found something amazing, and I want to be here. I want to get to know you. We cannot be scared. I would hate to miss another boat." -'ER'
I had told everyone that I was here to see all my friends graduate - Tina, Artie, Sam, Brittany and Blaine. Even as I told them that, I knew it wasn't true though. I had broken things off with Adam three weeks ago. He was a nice enough guy but I just couldn't see myself spending a lifetime with him and it wasn't fair to keep leading him on. No matter how much I tried to deny it, I still loved Blaine. Every hope and dream I had for the future still involved him. It was time I stopped denying it.
As I watched Blaine walk across the stage all I could hope was that he still loved me. That he hadn't given up waiting for me to come to my senses.
As Blaine reached up to switch his tassel to the other side of the hat his eyes found mine. The smile he shot me made my heart skip a beat. It told me what I needed to know, he hadn't given up on me yet. I still had a shot, all I had to do was have the courage to make that leap and trust him again.
And I was going to do it, just as soon as I could get him alone. I was going to tell Blaine that I still loved him, had always loved him, and maybe we didn't know how things would turn out but I was willing to take a chance on him. On us because I missed what we'd had. I missed him and I didn't want to miss my one chance at true love because I was scared of getting hurt.
As I watched Blaine take his place with the other graduates, my eyes lingered on him. No matter what I had told people, he was the reason I was here. The reason I had come to Lima. With any luck I wouldn't be making the return trip to New York alone.
