Dirty Little Secret

Things had been very tense lately, more so with the teachers. Hogwarts was no longer considered safe. Everyone had to move in packs now teachers would escort students everywhere. The purebloods were the only ones not worried it was clear Muggle born witches and wizards were the target. It had already been a month since Puck was petrified and everyone was on high alert. Another attack was practically overdue.

Kurt still hadn't spoken to Blaine, he knows that is such a silly thing to be upset about with the circumstances but he couldn't help it.

Kurt heard his name being whispered as he was walking through a passage in the library, "Pssst Kurt!"

Kurt turned to see Patricia Williams motioning for Kurt to join a group of the muggle born students. When Kurt made it over he could see no purebloods or half-bloods in sight.

"What's going on?" asked Kurt.

"You shouldn't be by yourself Kurt, it's not safe" James warned.

"It's probably less safe to be all herding together. Bigger target, in fact pairing up with a pureblood might be your best chance of survival," offered Kurt.

"Don't be daft Kurt. It's one of them or a group of them that's attacking us in the first place. It is us against them we protect our own," stated Elizabeth.

"I think we should all go home. We can write to our parents I'm sure they'll let us," Lucy looked as white as a sheet.

"Don't you see that's what they want? We can't run away, we can't give up on magic or let them win," said Michael resting a hand on Lucy's shoulder.

"Come on we all know who's behind this. It has to be Tom Riddle," added Michael.

"But a student couldn't have done this. We don't know how we aren't that advanced besides the teachers would never teach that to us not even in our seventh year," replied Mary.

"Maybe you're right. In any case we have to be careful, we stick together," said Patricia. Everyone nodded in agreement.

…

Kurt split off from the group of them when he got the chance. Kurt needed time to himself he couldn't handle being surrounded by so many people a moment longer. He found himself sitting alone at the top of the astronomy tower.

"Kurt?" Blaine was looking at him with a look of confusion and fear.

"B-blaine" Kurt stuttered clearly not expecting to see him here.

"You're alone Kurt do you know how unsafe that is. I can't believe you would risk your own safety like that," This is the maddest Kurt had ever seen Blaine.

Kurt stood up with a sudden rush of anger, "You don't get to tell me what to do Blaine. Besides you're alone!"

"I'm not a muggle born," Blaine shot back.

"Oh I know Blaine trust me I know."

"What's that supposed to mean? Why are you so angry at me?"

"Did you seriously just ask me that Blaine? Was it really necessary to switch partners for prefect duty? Could you not find any way to contact me without anyone seeing?" asked Kurt.

"First of all my parents demanded I was put with someone else Dumbledore had no choice. And second you know exactly the reason why I haven't tried to make contact and it has nothing to do with your blood status! You ruined my life Kurt. I was happy before you kissed me and now you've made me question everything!" Blaine was trying not to shout.

"Blaine that kiss didn't make you confused you were already confused I just brought it to the top of your head." Kurt leaned in closer.

"Please Kurt I can't do this. I'm not a strong person like you. I just want to be like everyone else," Blaine whispered, all energy gone.

"But you're not like everyone else," replied Kurt.

Kurt took a step back. No matter what he or Blaine felt he knew he couldn't be responsible for Blaine cheating on Rachel. She's still his girlfriend and that wouldn't be right.

"I know this is a difficult time for you and you can't be seen with me I understand that Blaine but can't we just be friends?"

"The problem is I don't want to just be friends with you," replied Blaine.

"But I can't be with you Kurt, the consequences if someone found out would be too bad. I honestly think my parents would kill me. I'll try to be your friend but I just need some time to figure everything out, is that ok?"

"Of course it is Blaine take as much time as you need. And if you need to talk I'm always here," Kurt smiled giving Blaine a playful punch.

"Can you please let me walk you back to your common room? It's getting late," asked Blaine.

"Alright then, let's go" replied Kurt leading the way.

Kurt and Blaine walked in silence but every now and again would try and look at the other one without each other noticing. Kurt barely even noticed where he was going he almost bumped into a girl who was just standing there looking at herself in a pocket mirror.

"Patricia? What are you doing?" Kurt put a hand on Patricia and that was when he noticed she's hard as stone.

"Petrified," Blaine gasped.

…

It was clear now to everyone that the Muggle Born's are being hunted. The new school rule made it impossible for any muggle born student to go anywhere without at least two other people or a teacher. With the muggle born students being so well protected there hadn't been another attack in three months. Not much had happened in that time. The teachers were desperately trying to find the attacker with no luck. Blaine still hadn't figured out what he wanted to do but him and Kurt would regularly meet up at the astronomy tower and talk for hours. Nobody saw them because most of the students were too lazy to make the climb.

"Alright now if you could add the last of your ingredients and stir it in, then we'll let it sit for a minute," instructed Professor Slughorn.

Just then Tom Riddle came waltzing into the room. Professor Slughorn's face lit up at the sight of his favourite student.

"Tom my boy, what can I do for you?" asked the Professor.

"I came to accept your invitation of course Professor. To the event you will be hosting in two weeks' time. I would be honoured to be one of your guests," Kurt had to admit Tom was absolutely charming.

"Oh Tom you didn't have to come all the way here just to tell me that."

"Well to be honest with you I was looking for an excuse to see my favourite Professor, may we have a chat in private?" asked Tom making the Professor blush red.

"Of course you can Tom, anything for you lad." Professor Slughorn turned back to the class. "You all may go after bottling your potion and leaving it on your shelf."

Slughorn led Tom into his office as Kurt packed his things. Kurt had already finished and bottled his potion ten minutes ago. Potions happened to be Kurt's best class. Slughorn doted on Kurt as he does with all his favourite students or pets as Kurt liked to call them but Kurt never got invited to his parties. Kurt had a feeling it was because he's Muggle Born. In any case Kurt liked Professor Slughorn he isn't cruel like most Slytherin's he's nice to all the students no matter what house they're from.

Kurt waited by the door with Dumbledore for the rest of the Muggle Born students. When all assembled we were all dropped off at the Great Hall for dinner. Kurt took his usual seat next to Rachel.

"You look worried about something," Kurt frowned at Rachel who seems to have taken up nail biting that's something Kurt's never seen her do.

"Kurt my mum is here," Rachel grabbed hold of Kurt's arm with more force than he knew she had.

"Really? Can I meet her?" asked Kurt.

"No I mean yes but you don't seem to see the dilemma here she wants to meet Blaine!"

"What's the problem? Blaine is delightful and you have been dating him for at least a year Rachel."

"Yes but I never told her who my boyfriend was, she always told me to stay away from the Andersons, she said it's a bad idea to get involved with them but if only she knew Blaine she would see how sweet he is."

"Then show her Rachel," Kurt insisted.

"Ugh fine!"

…

Blaine hadn't felt this nervous his first quidditch match three years ago. He was about to meet Rachel's mum and he wanted to make a good impression but how could he do that when he doesn't actually have any romantic feelings for her daughter and has been trying to pluck up the courage to break it off for months now.

If Blaine was being honest he had no idea what to do. He wants to be with Kurt but that could mean death for him if people found out.

Taking a deep breath Blaine walked into the classroom where he would meet Rachel and her mum.

"Here he is mum, now don't be upset I know you've always told me not to get involved with the Anderson boy but Blaine is really great and he's so good to me mother I promise!" Rachel ranted on but her mother just stood there her face going from shocked to completely distraught.

"Rachel how on earth could you do this? I specifically told you to never get involved with Blaine!"

"Mother you don't even know him! I love him, Blaine and I we want to get married someday please support us. Just get to know him!" Rachel shouted back tears streaming down her face.

"Oh Rachel I do know Blaine! You don't think I don't know how sweet and special that beautiful boy is? I gave birth to him! He is my son and your brother!"
