This is a super short chapter but shouldn't be too long till the next one. I know I've been keeping you waiting for a long time but I'm making it my mission to finish this ASAP.

The Truth
Blaine ran as fast as he could, there was no way he could stay a second longer after finding out his whole life had been a lie. At least he finally knew why his mother was so horrible to him, Blaine is the walking talking reminder of her husband's affair. The only person Blaine wants to see right now is Kurt. Blaine nearly died running up the stairs to the astronomy tower, praying Kurt would be waiting at the top. Finally, he made it out of breath and clutching his side. Kurt turned at the sound of Blaine's heavy breathing with a dazzling smile on his face. Kurt's smile faded quickly when he saw the state of Blaine.
"Oh Blaine you look terrible. You didn't break up with Rachel in front of her mother did you?" asked Kurt as he rubbed Blaine's back soothingly.
"n-no" Blaine stuttered trying to catch his breath.
Kurt waited patiently while Blaine's heart rate slowed to a steady rate.
Blaine spoke after a few minutes, "It's bad Kurt, it's so bad."
Blaine couldn't stop the tears so he buried his face in Kurt's neck.
"Blaine breath, take some deep breaths and tell me what happened."
"Oh god Kurt, she's my sister. Rachel is my sister!" Blaine cried and started beating his head against his fist.
"Whoa hey hey stop Blaine!" Kurt grabbed Blaine's hands and held them tight.
After a while Blaine settled down into a calm state. "Rachel and I are twins. Her mother a-and my father they, they" Blaine couldn't finish.
"I knew her mum and your dad had a thing but I didn't know. Maybe this is good for us. Now you don't have to break it off with Rachel, we can give this a go" Kurt tried to sound positive.
"You knew? You knew and you didn't think to tell me?" Blaine shook Kurt off.
"Blaine it wasn't that simple. I promised Rachel I wouldn't tell."
"Rachel Knew?"
"No not that specifically, her father is gay and her mother knows about it. They all keep it secret. I'm sorry I should have said something I just didn't think it mattered anymore," Kurt sighed trying to figure out if Blaine is still mad.
"We can't give this a go, Kurt. This can't work. If anyone found out, we would be shipped off to the nearest mental institution. At least Rachel wont have to live her life keeping my secret. I just can't believe she's my sister. I can't believe my real mother would just leave me with my father and that woman, to be abused" Blaine fell to the floor looking defeated.
"So you're just going to be alone for the rest of your life?" asked Kurt, eyes stinging.
"I can't be what you want me to be Kurt. I'm not brave like you."
"I should go find Rachel. Make sure she's ok" Kurt left before Blaine could see the tears.
Kurt had managed to compose himself by the time he made it down the long flight of stairs. Thank god Blaine didn't follow Kurt really needed some time to go through everything in his head. Kurt made his way to the portrait of the fat lady practicing his deep breathing.
"Password?" sang the fat lady.
"Felix Felicis" replied Kurt and the portrait swung open.
He found Rachel in the Gryffindor common room sitting in the big couch beside the fire.
"Rachel?" Kurt sat beside her and put an arm over her shoulders.
"Oh Kurt" Rachel sobbed.
"It's ok Rachel, I bumped into Blaine he told me everything"
"I used to get upset that Blaine wasn't put in Gryffindor but now I'm thanking god he's not. I don't know if I can ever look at him again" Rachel put her head in her hands.
"It's not his fault."
"Oh I know I'm just so embarrassed. I thought we were going to get married and have kids." Rachel Laughed, "of course it wouldn't have mattered. The last few months he's been slipping away, he's become distant. Kurt, we never actually had sex. I'm still a virgin, he couldn't do it. He said he was on medication that stopped him but I don't think Blaine has ever been attracted to me, to any girl. I know these are serious allegations and I do not want Blaine getting hurt so you have to promise not to tell anyone." Rachel gripped Kurt's arm eyes wide.
"Rachel you don't have to worry about that. You don't have to worry about me saying anything about Blaine because I'm gay" Kurt looked down and Rachel's grip loosened.
"I've been keeping my fathers secret all my life, I can keep yours too," Rachel smiled taking Kurt's hands.
"Are you going to be ok?" Asked Kurt suddenly feeling exhausted.
"Yeah, mother is staying in Hogsmeade tonight so I'll talk to her again tomorrow. You go get some sleep. I'm going to do the same."
…
Blaine waited in the empty classroom where he had met Rachel's mother, his mother yesterday evening. He had agreed to meet Shelby here again so she could explain. Blaine desperately needed answers.
"I didn't think you would come," Shelby walked to quietly Blaine jumped.
Blaine cleared his throat "I just need to know why. Why you abandoned me. You don't know what I've been through living with them."
"I'm sorry Blaine, I know. I was being blackmailed. Your father he wanted you. He wanted both of you but he let me keep Rachel and he would keep my secret," Shelby reached out to Blaine.
Blaine shrugged her off, "you mean that your husbands a homo."
"Rachel told you that?" asked Shelby.
"No," Blaine tried to look anywhere but at her.
"Look Blaine I know you're hurt but I did what I had to. If that got out it would be bad for everyone involved. I may have been locked up and then both you and Rachel would have grown up with them. I didn't think he would hurt you. I thought he cared for you, why else would he want you so badly" Shelby gave Blaine a pleading look.
"I wasn't the son he hoped for, I'm not how he wanted me to be. In his words I'm weak, I care too much. I don't think he wanted to hurt me. But mother hates me, sometimes she makes him do it," Blaine sniffed.
"Oh honey, you are not weak, you are kind. I'm so sorry, I've thought about you every single day you have to know that. I would look for you at the station. If you want, you don't have to go to your fathers. You can come home, to me," Blaine let Shelby hold him now.
"What about father and your secret?" asked Blaine.
"Lets cross that bridge when we come to it. I have you now baby and I wont let you go again," Shelby smiled pulling Blaine close.
