‘Guys, I know it’s the end of the year, so these meetings are pretty pointless, but we are a family, so I feel we should keep them, what do you guys think?’ Mr Schuester strolled into the choir room, his kids retreating from their gossip sessions into their chairs. They all seemed to agree to the idea, but then... ‘Where’s Kurt?’
‘Sorry! I was talking with Principal Figgins. Mr Schue, may I have the floor?’ As if on cue, Kurt came sauntering into the choir room, slightly flustered. Mr Schue stepped to the side and Kurt put his bag onto the chair next to Mercedes before stepping up to the piano. ‘As it’s the end of the year, and it has been a good one, I was planning on throwing a party...’ Whispers broke out amongst the group, Rachel just stared incredulously at him, clearly remembering her little party back in the spring. ‘...with supervision, in the McKinley Gym. Mr Schue, does that sound ok?’
‘Kurt, that sounds fine by me? But who is invited to need a space as big as the gym?’ Mr Schue had a feeling he knew where Kurt was heading with his idea, as did Mercedes.
‘Just the New Directions... And the Warblers...’ Kurt braced himself for the outbreak of denial he was expecting.
‘Kurt.... that’s a great idea! Why not show our appreciation for the boys who kept you safe when we couldn’t!’ Rachel smiled at him. ‘I mean, when we saw you at Sectionals, you looked a bit lost, but at Regionals you were so much happier, and I think we have a specific Warbler to thank for that!’
Kurt blushed, and smiled at his newest gal pal. Rachel had been the hardest to soften too, because they saw each other as threats, but by the time they had finished in New York, there was a bond, a near damn unbreakable one between the two. I wouldn’t be surprised if in a few years they reprised their cameo on the ‘Wicked’ stage as the established leads. All the other members of New Directions nodded as well, glad that their prodigal son wanted to bring two the most important parts of his life together.
‘Great! Ladies, can I borrow your company this afternoon?’ Kurt cocked his head at his girlfriends.
‘Why?’ Quinn asked from her seat by Artie
‘I still need to convince the almighty Warblers Council, and I have a feeling that a little female....persuasion.... would go a long way.’ Kurt smirked at the devious looks appearing on the girls faces. ‘Quinn, Santana, Brittany, do you still have your Cheerio’s outfits?’
