I'll be okay, I'll go my way, we can still be friends.
"He quit! Elliott quit!" Kurt yelled. He chucked his phone angrily onto the couch.
"He quit the band?" Blaine asked.
Kurt glared at him. "No, he quit the traveling circus. Of course he quit the band!" Kurt was furious. "Where am I going to find someone as talented as him to be in the band?" he asked.
Blaine cleared is throat and studied his shoes.
Kurt smiled. "Well, it appears our band has an opening. Would you like to join?" he asked Blaine.
Blaine smiled. He had been secretly waiting for this day to come, the day when Kurt would ask him to join the band. "I would love to! Do I need to audition?" Blaine asked.
"Of course not, I already know you're perfect," Kurt replied. He kissed Blaine and then started rummaging around for the sheet music for all of the songs.
In an apartment several blocks away, Elliott sat on his couch, his sheet music in his hand. It was now dotted with tears. He knew that Kurt was engaged to Blaine, he had always known that, but now that Blaine was living with Kurt, it was so in his face. He couldn't admire Kurt, or subtly flirt, he just had to carry out the motions of just being in the band. But that had become too difficult. This was the only solution, difficult as it was. It had to be done, for everyone's sake.
