AN: So this little added scene would be set during "Never Be Kissed" before the scene where Blaine and Kurt confront Karofsky.
Prompt: Lex Luthor -"You're like the younger brother I never had. I figure someone should benefit from my experience." - 'Smallville'
"Where are you going?"
I turned at the question to find Wes standing a few feet away. Other than the two of us, the hallway was empty, which was why I had chosen this particular exit to leave through. Hopefully, with Trent telling the teachers I had and bad headache and had gone back to my dorm room to lie down. back to the dorms, the faculty wouldn't realize I had skipped campus. Of course I hadn't banked on meeting up with Wes.
"Kurt needs some back-up," I replied, not about to lie to my friend but not wanting to go into details either. "I'll be back for rehearsal, don't worry." I added.
"Assuming you don't get caught and suspended or barred from performing."
"I don't plan on getting caught, as long as you don't go telling on me."
Wes shook his head. "No, I'm not going to say anything but I don't understand why you're taking such a big risk for someone you just met."
"Because after what I've gone through, I understand where he is coming in a way that most people won't be able to. I had to go through it alone but that doesn't mean that Kurt has to. He's kind of like the little brother that I never had."
"Isn't he older than you?" Wes asked, a smirk coming to his face.
"A mere technicality," I replied. Besides, I knew that in this area at least, I had experience that could benefit Kurt.
"Right. Well good luck. Where are you supposed to be if a teacher asks?"
"I went to the dorms to lay down because of a headache."
"Got it," Wes said, turning and heading toward the more populated areas of the school.
Alone again, I headed for the exit. I had made some great friends here at Dalton, and it was good to have them on my side. Right now, that's what Kurt needed, someone to be solely on his side no matter what. I understood how it felt to be in that position. I understood how it felt to feel alone because of who you were. I was in the position to change that for him, and I planned on doing just that.
Now, hopefully I could pull this off without getting caught. I'd prefer to avoid a suspension but I wasn't going to let anything keep me from being there for Kurt. As long as I could be the support he needed through this than I'd deal with the consequences as they came.
