This chapter contains weight and body issue.

Also I changed the plot for this story several times, but all with basically the same events. Now I know exactly what I want to do, and hopefully this will flow more smoothly. And thank you to my friend who helped me with this. Stay strong and ignore the mean girls :)

If you read 'Make you Believe' this may seem repetitive. But there's a plan behind everything I write.

BlaiPOV-

After Jordan graduated, I thought the bullying would stop. Or at least not be as bad.

How wrong I was.

''Has anyone ever told you dress like a pre-New York Rachel Berry,'' Lisa walks by.

She transferred here this year. True to mean girl stereotype, she's pretty, popular, and out to make my life a living hell.

Usually I ignore her.

''Yes,'' I shrug.- Manage Stories

''I think it looks better on her,'' she smirks, then eyes me up and down ,''A lot better.''

She walks away then, and every insecurity I've ever had creeps into me.

''Don't listen to her,'' Amber rolls her eyes ,''You're gorgeous.''

''Thanks,'' I smile a bit.

''Besides, it's important to stick up for yourself but you don't even have to be mean to her. Senior year is almost over, and you'll never have to deal with her again.''

''Right. Well I've got to class, I'll see you in glee,'' I tell her, saying goodbye and walking in the opposite direction.

And of course Lisa is in the bathroom. Just my luck.

''Hi,'' she takes her books off of the sink, walking over to me ,''I guess I should say sorry for calling you fat last week.''

What the hell?

''You're not really. I mean, you've got an hourglass figure. And you're only a little chubby,'' she smirks, ''I guess that baby weight isn't coming off so easy.''

I thought I didn't gain that much weight with Grace, but apparently I did.

I've tried to ignore, tried to stand up for myself, but I'm slowly breaking.

''But hey, if you want to lose a little weight it definitely wouldn't hurt,'' she leaves then.

I turn to look into the mirror and… crap, she's right.

Just when I start liking my body. If I could just lose this little bit of weight… but the diets and exercise aren't working.

I'm almost there. I have to lose this weight, and I'll do whatever it takes. As soon as I lose the weight, I'll stop. And then I'll feel confident and they won't be able to call me chubby anymore.

Of course I'll have to keep it hidden from Kurt and dad. They're back in the honeymoon phase of their marriage, and they don't need to worry about me. And if Rory or Sugar find out, they'll tell them. I'll just eat healthier, go on a diet. It'll only be for a few weeks. A few weeks of no junk food, only healthy food. And I guess it wouldn't hurt to go to the gym a few times. Soon, I won't be so insecure.

Then everything really will be okay, and I can stop pretending.

RoryPOV-

''Are you sure you don't want half,'' I ask Blair during lunch.

She'd left her lunch at home, and was eating a small salad from the school's salad bar.

''I'm fine,'' she shrugs, piercing a tomato with her fork.

''Still upset about dad and Blaine? Blair, they won't get a divorce. Don't listen to the assholes that tell us that,'' I remind her.

Dad and Blaine haven't fought in two weeks, so I don't know why she's upset. And, to be honest, even I was a little upset at the rumours the tabloids and magazines made up about my parents.

''I know… I jump to conclusions, I guess,'' she plays with her food, rolling a cherry tomato around with her fork.

''So do I. I mean, you and I? We lost parents before. We're just scared of it happening again,'' I sigh, and she looks up ,''But we won't. I promise. Dad and Blaine are gonna be that old married couple that everyone thinks is adorable eve when they argue about what to watch on television.''

She laughs then, thanking me.

This semester has been rough on both of us. We've had to deal with a few… comments about our parents' relationship. None of which have been the least bit nice or friendly.

Dad and Blaine love us, and I don't know why they can't see that. They treat us right, and they're always there for us. After my mom and dad, I didn't think two people could love me that much. But they do. And they're gonna be fine, and we're gonna be fine.''

''Thanks Rory,'' she nods, then smiles a bit ,''You're a good brother.''

''Shh,'' I joke ,''Don't tell people we're related.''

''But you like me because I'm your sister,'' she sings.

''Whatever,'' I roll my eyes, and she laughs as the bell rings ,''Come on. We gotta get to our classes.''

We follow the other students out, and into the hallway before heading to our separate classes.

What I said to Blair wasn't just to make her feel better. I honestly know that my parents will be okay, no matter what comes their way.

Because they are definitely the strongest people I know.

BPOV-

''What's that,'' Kurt asks lying his head on my knee.

''I'm working on the setlist for regionals. It's the first week of March, only a month away from now,'' I remind him.

''I wish I could go. But I have so much to do. I still have three actresses left to make dresses for.''

''It's okay, you're doing what you love. And maybe we'll make it to nationals and you can come then,'' I shrug.

''Good,'' Kurt nods ,''These are their last high school competitions. They're graduating in June. That's not that far away.''

''Don't remind me,'' I groan, putting the finished list on the nightstand ,''It feels like… like-''

''Like we just got them, and now they're leaving the nest,'' Kurt supplies.

''You took the words right out of my mouth,'' I sighed ,''And it's all coming so fast...''

''Senior prom, senior class picture, senior banquet, graduation,'' Kurt counts on his fingers.

''Where did the time go,'' I look at the Rory and Blair's senior pictures.

They'd taken them back in October, and it feels like it was yesterday.

''You know we have to talk to them.'' Kurt reminds me, and I sigh.

The new principal overheard some of the kids making comments about us to Rory.

Unfortunately, it was as Rory pushed the other students.

So his bully was expelled, due to this being just part of a series of other offenses. Rory was suspended for three days do to being the one who started the fight, since the other kid didn't hit him first.

''We did. Rory knows why he was suspended.''

''It's not that. I appreciate him standing up for us and himself. But there are gonna be people like that his whole life. He can't physically fight all of them.''

''Right,'' I nod ,''We'll talk to him in the morning. I think he understands that, though.''

''Now, on to Blair. It's obvious something's bothering her,'' Kurt tells me ,''I just don't know what.''

''Do you think it's her body image issues,'' I wince.

''I considered it. Mercedes said it's easy to succumb no matter how confident you are. She struggled with her self-esteem in high school, and then afterwards when she went to LA. Some people said she doesn't look the part.''

''That's insane,'' I argue ,''Mercedes is gorgeous, and talented.''

''And so is Blair. But she doesn't see that. She has been through so much these past few years, and she beats herself up enough without having other people berate her. She's at a healthy weight, but she sees something completely different when she looks into the mirror,'' Kurt stares at me ,''We don't… she can't go through this again, Blaine. Rory is asleep, but she's definitely awake. Do you want to talk to her now?''

''Sure,'' I nod.

Before we let this get as far as it did last time.

KPOV-

''I'm fine,'' Blair nods, sitting against the pillows on her bed as Blaine and I sit on the edge of her bed ,''Don't worry.''

''You've been eating less,'' Blaine notes.

''I'm on a diet,'' Blair shrugs ,''no big deal.''

''Blair, yes it is,'' I tell her ,''You shouldn't go on a diet unless your doctor tells you too.''

''It's just for a few weeks,'' she insists ,''I'm eating, I promise. Just no junk food, no sugar, no caffeine… things like that.''

''Blair-''

''I'm eighteen, dad. And I want to like my own body, so I'm doing this for that reason. Please,'' she stares at me, then at Blaine.

''Blair, you have to come to us if this gets out of hand,'' Blaine tells her.

''I will. I'm really, really tired. Can I go to bed,'' Blair yawns, and we nod.

''Do you think she's telling the truth,'' Blaine whispers as we walk to her room.

''About it being just a diet?,'' I begin ,''Yes. But we… she could take it too far, Blaine. Further than she did last time. If this gets worse, it could lead to an eating disorder. Or worse.''

He tenses, tightening his grip on my hand ,''I think we should take her to talk to someone. Before this gets to that level.''

''Right. And… and maybe someone can talk to Rory. Someone who has been bullied for this before,'' I sigh when I hear Grace cry ,''I'll get her.''

''I'll go with you,'' Blaine follows me into the nursery.

Grace stops crying, holding her arms out to be picked up.

''Quinn is coming on Monday,'' I tell Blaine as we walk back to our room with Grace ,''Maybe she can talk to Blair again. She needs a woman since her mom can't be here.''

''I think you are right,'' Blaine nods.

We're so out of our element raising Blair sometimes. But we're not ashamed to admit that we do need help from time to time.

''She'll be fine. We… maybe we can stop this before it gets out of hand. We'll talk to Rory first thing in the morning,'' I reply.

''Good,'' he looks from Grace and up to me ,''You don't regret this do you? Having three kids?''

''No, of course not. It's not always easy. I mean, Grace is one years old. She's a baby. All we have to do is give her the basics and watch her. Rory is trying to work through more bullying issues than he was before. And Blair… Blair won't tell us what's happening. Not that either one of us fully understand teenage girls anyway. You… you don't regret this, right?''

''Never,'' Blaine furiously shakes his head ,''I love them, I love you, more than anything. But with Rory having problems at school and Blair's insecurities, and raising a baby… I could never get through this with anyone else.''

''Don't you dare make my cry,'' I tell him quietly as Grace begins to drift off to sleep.

''I love you,'' he smiles, kissing me then Gracie's forehead ,''We're gonna be fine, yeah? And the kids?''

''Of course,'' I nod ,''We're gonna help them.''

Okay, so the first few months of our marriage aren't what we expected. But the kids come first, always and in everything. We'll help them, together. Whatever it takes. Next year, they'll be in college. Hopefully us helping them now will prepare them for next year, when they're trying to break out on their own.

No matter what, Blaine and I are here for them to fall back on if the need it.

And, as always, Blaine is there for me. We've been here before, and we've come out stronger just like the kids have.

I'm sure this time is no different.

Quinn is in the next chapter, and they talk to Rory. Just to make things clear, I'm not trying to offend anyone. I want this to be as realistic as it possibly can. I think a lot of us have experienced one or more of these insecurities at one time or another, I know sometimes what people say can make you see yourself differently than what is really 't worry things will get better.
