A/N: Because this needed to happen.


"Blaine…" Puck and Finn had straight, sombre faces, creeping into Blaine's hospital room.

"Mmm…Hi guys…" he mumbled with a slight grin.

It had been two hours since his surgery –he was awake and mostly all there.

"Where's Kurt?" he glanced behind them with his good eye.

"He's…" Finn shot a worried look at Puck, who nodded. "He's not doing so well…and he couldn't tell you himself…"

Okay, Blaine was really awake now. "Why? What's wrong? Is he okay?"

Puck faltered. "No, Kurt's fine…"

"Then what happened?"

"It's…it's you."

Blaine drew a blank. "What?"

"The surgery…it didn't go quite as well as everyone hoped."

Blaine started panicking. "No…but the doctor said…"

"We just talked to him…" Finn said softly. "He lied…and he wanted us to tell you the truth."

Blaine shook his head, his hand flying to the gauze wrapped around his eye.

"But…"

"You're going to permanently lose sight in your right eyes…and they accidentally cut a line to your left eye while they were there…" Puck put his hand on Blaine's leg, taking a deep breath. "You're going to be completely blind by the end of the month…"

"What…?" Blaine shook his head in disbelief. "No…no…no…!"

Finn jumped at a noise in the hallway, and caught Puck's attention. Nodding, they both climbed to their feet.

"Blaine? We have to go now. Kurt will be in soon to see you." Finn said.

Blaine shook his head, still dazed.

"Completely blind?" he said in horror as they left, glancing right and left before bolting down the hallway, collapsing against a wall out of sight of Blaine's room and bursting into laughter.

"Did you see his face?" Puck laughed.

Finn smiled.

"I feel kinda bad for doing that…"

"Nah, its fine. You know Kurt will tell him the truth."

^.^

After a long talk with the doctor, about the care Blaine would need to take with his eye for the next couple of weeks, Kurt crept into Blaine's room.

The boy was sobbing into his hands, rocking himself slightly.

"Blaine?"

"Kurt, will you still love me when I'm blind?"

"Of course I- Wait when? What?" Kurt asked, sitting next to Blaine on the bed and pulling him into his arms.

"Will you?" Blaine said insistently, looking up at Kurt with his good eye, demanding an answer.

"I'll love you no matter what happens."

"Even when I go blind?"

"Blaine, why do you think you're going blind?"

Blaine shook his head, leaning against Kurt's shoulder.

"Okay, you need to calm down okay? Crying isn't going to help your eye heal." Kurt soothed, petting at his back. Blaine just cried harder.

"Stop… stop lying to me okay? We both know my eye isn't going to get better."

Kurt had had enough.

"Blaine!" he snapped, pulling him away and holding him up by his shoulders, shaking him slightly. "Who told you that you were going blind?"

Blaine shook in his hands, blinking up at Kurt in confusion.

"Puck and Finn came and visited me before… They said the doctor lied, that I was going to be completely blind by the end of the month." He said softly.

Kurt hugged Blaine back to his chest, stroking at his hair.

"Blaine, they lied. You're going to be fine."

"But-"

"No, Blaine, listen to me. I was just talking to the doctor - you have to wear an eye patch for at least another week – two at the most – but after that you'll be fine."

Blaine shook his head. "Puck and Finn…"

"When have Puck and Finn ever been a reliable source?"

Blaine took a moment to think, his eyes drying and he frowned.

"I'm going to kill them."
