Cooper P.O.V
I knew Blaine had cut his hair because I saw him when he came to California. I didn't know however that he enjoyed super-glueing it his head.
"You know you don't need that much gel right?"
"It doesn't stay with less gel than this…. Wait Cooper?!" He turned around and saw me standing in the doorway of his boarding room. He ran over and gave me a huge hug.
"Hey kiddo!"
"I didn't know you were coming?!"
"I wanted to surprise you." At that moment a chinese boy walked in the room.
"Hey, Wes this is my brother Cooper. Cooper this is Wes." We shook hands smiling.
"Nice to meet you Cooper Warbler Blaine told me a lot about you."
I laughed. "He told me about you too."
"Blaine are you coming to practice today?"
"No, I think I'll skip it today so I can stay with Coop."
"Sounds good I will alert the council. Bye Blaine. Bye Cooper."
"Bye Wes!" Wes left.
"What do you want to do?" I asked Blaine who looked extremely tired and was yawning. "We could go out for ice cream?" I suggested.
"Yeah okay." Blaine stumbled a bit out of the room.
"You okay?"
"Yeah, just a little under the weather."
"You sure? We could always stay here or go to mom and dads."
"Actually can we go to mom and dads and like maybe watch a movie there or something?"
"Absolutely." I put my arm over his shoulders and we went to the house.
"Hey mom dad!" Mom hurried down the stairs hearing my voice.
"Cooper! Blaine! What are yo two doing here?"
"I wanted to visit and got Blainey on the way here." My dad descended from the staircase.
"Hey boys! Blaine you look beat you okay?" I looked over to Blaine who looked like all he wanted to do was lay down.
"I'm fi-" His eyes rolled to the back of his head as he collapsed and started thrashing on the ground. We all knew what to do at this point in time so mom kept the time I bundled my sweat shirt under his head and loosened his tie and undid the top buttons in his shirt. Dad ran to the kitchen to grab the phone incase it lasted longer than five minutes. As soon as it started though it stopped.
"Three minutes." My mom said.
"Did he hit his head?" My father asked.
"No he didn't but he hit his knee and will probably have a nasty bruise. Other than that he should me fine."
Blaine started coming round slowly opening his eyes.
"Again?" He asked.
"Sorry buddy. Want me to move you to the couch, your probably extremely soar and tired." Blaine just nodded at my dad and he put his arms under his shoulders and knees and lifted him to the couch.
"M'tired." He said.
"Go to sleep baby." Blaine went back to bed.
"He's going to be upset."
"Doesn't this happen though?"
"It hasn't in about three months. He was hoping he out grew it. He also was unhappy when he found out it is going to affect his ability to get his license."
"He'll be okay." I said reassuringly to my mom.
"I know he will. He's so courageous."
"Indeed he is."
It was hours before Blaine woke up again.
"How you feeling."
"I'm still soar and kind of tired. This sucks! I hate them."
"Who?" I asked even though I knew exactly who he was talking about. I had never actually heard him talk about them till now though.
"The guys who beat me up. They put me through hell! They think that this is funny? When somebody can't even be in control of there life anymore, of there own body? They think it is okay to scare someone into switching schools? Or making an entire family move? I get that the fact that I'm gay doesn't sit well with them. But I am not a disease I'm not contagious and I'm not trying to make them fall in love with me! I just don't want to feel like I don't deserve happiness. Like this is a consequence. Like I deserve this." Blaine is crying now. Hysterically. I walk over and sit down next to him.
"You my brother, are the bravest person I have ever met in my entire life. You will go somewhere and do something with yourself. While those douche bags are rotting in a jail cell over something as silly as what you love. You will find a man one day Blaine. When you find him you will say to yourself 'Oh hey there you are I've been looking for you forever." He will be handsome and charming and everything you deserve. He will fill the part of your heart that's missing. Of corse I need to give him the one over. But Blaine believe me when I say you are strong and a fighter and brave and charismatic and amazing and that boy will be so damn lucky! You deserve the world Blaine. And I am truly sorry you haven't gotten that yet but it's coming be patient. I promise. I love you bro!" He hugs me tighter.
"Your the best Coop."
"You too kid."
