Prompt: Sam Beckett - "Even heroes are human." - 'Quantum Leap'

AN: Fulfilling prompts for supergirl102 again and she wanted to see conversations between Kurt/Finn and Burt/Finn surrounding the death threat. The next two drabbles will do that. Enjoy!


"Mind if I join you?" I asked stepping out on the front porch of the Kurt's house. Our parents were inside cleaning up from dinner.

Looking up from the magazine he was looking at, Kurt shook his head. As he closed the magazine, I walked over to the porch swing and sat down next to him. We sat in silence for a little while before I got the courage to say what I had come out to say.

"I'm sorry, Kurt. Rachel tried to tell me things were getting bad, but I was too wrapped up in my own goals to see how bad things were getting for you," I told him. "I should have stepped in with the other guys."

"It wasn't your problem, Finn," Kurt said, repeating the words he had said in Glee not too long ago.

"Yes it was. Not only because we're both members of Glee Club, and teammates are supposed to have one another's backs, but because we're going to be family soon and up until you mentioned Karofsky's death threat, I didn't realize how much I'm looking forward to that. I've always wanted a sibling and I'm about to get an awesome brother. I don't want anything to get in the way of that."

"Really?" Kurt asked, a hint of disbelief in his voice.

"Really," I told him. "And granted I dropped the ball with this whole Karofsky situation, but I won't make that mistake again."

"Well, even heroes are human, Finn. Even they're entitled to making mistakes now and again," Kurt said, a smile playing on his lips as he said the words.

"I'm far from being a hero," I replied.

Kurt shook his head. "You're always going to be a hero in my eyes Finn because you're the first person who ever stood up for me. When you're so use to everyone being against you, you don't forget something like that."

I was stunned by Kurt's words and unsure of how to reply. I was saved from needing to though by my mom calling from the front door.

"You two going to come join us for a movie?" she asked, unaware of what she had interrupted.

"Sure," we both replied, getting to our feet.

My mom had been right. What the two of us had, hadn't really been a family. It was going to be nice having a 'real' family.
