Blaine and Kurt shimmied in with Rachel and Quinn to ask what was going on.

"Santana and Mercedes pulled out the ballad race and want to perform their own song." Quinn said quickly as Santana came center stage.

"It came to my attention yesterday after the hobbits spread their gross love ballad across us that I didn't want to sing about love. And after some talking with my girl and making some convincing arguments with Mercedes. The three of us have decided we want 2 minutes to perform. Now before you say no Mr. Schue, we want to perform for you. I also threatened several cheerleaders to joining us. We are fierce, feminine and phenomenal. We are the trouble tones." Santana said as 7 girls in all black dresses filled the stage then Mercedes and Brittany came out the same time Santana walked back.

The trio sung Stronger by Kelly Clarkson. They also had it well choreographed and the blend between Santana and Mercedes was magical.

Kurt was touched by the lyrics, he hardly listened to pop, and he only knew the things Rachel showed him.

He need to move past Zaiah, it didn't kill him that day and he needed to stop acting like it did. The second Kurt moved on he would become stronger.

Blaine’s hand graced over Kurt’s for a moment on the arm rest of the chair before settling on Blaine’s leg. Kurt remembered the moment they shared on his bed, fingers interlocked that was the best moment of sleep Kurt had got since Friday night.

The girls stopped and received a standing ovation. "Done, you ladies are wonderful! Take 3 minutes if you have too. I am amazing that you did all of that in a day."

"Well Britt did the dancing, and as cheerios we learned pretty fast." Santana said shrugging.

"So this means Blaine and I have the ballad?" Rachel asked.

"No Kurt still has his audition." Will said.

"I changed my mind, they can have it." Kurt said Blaine turned and smiled at him. Then he was bombarded with a hug from Rachel.

"Very well, let’s do some vocal drills then start dancing." Schuster said.

After glee practice they guy went to football practice and Rachel and Kurt headed to their cars.

Kurt stopped mid stride mid sentence as he saw Zaiah waiting for him.

His stomach plummeted to the floor and his body got icy yet his palms began to sweat. His mind replayed the night making him nauseous the parking lot started to spin and he got light headed.

Zaiah didn't notice him yet; he was glued to his phone and didn't look up.

Rachel didn't notice Zaiah but was confused at Kurt’s stop and his blind fear towards the parking lot.

"Kurt what is it?" Rachel asked looking up at him.

"H-he he's here," Kurt stammered. Rachel turned to the parking lot and still had no idea what was going on.

"Who is here, Kurt?" She asked.

"Zaiah," Kurt replied in a small voice.

"Oh I'll go get someone." Rachel said scanning the football field as a few players were already out stretching. "Come with me," she took his arm but he didn't budge.

The girl’s song echoed in his ears, he was stronger.

"No, I have to do this myself," Kurt croaked telling his feet to move forward.

"He already hit you; you don't need to be near him. Kurt come on don't be stupid."

"Stupid is my middle name, you can get someone but I have to do this." Kurt said. Rachel shook her head and rushed to the field house. Kurt took deep breaths and tried to stay as calm as possible even if his heart was beating double its normal speed. Zaiah saw him and started walking to him but Kurt stopped, "don't come any closer." He uttered proud that he actually sounded calm and angry instead of terrified.

"Kurt I am so sorry I don't even know what happened I lost it." He started sounding as sincere as possible.

"You lied to me and you hurt me. I'm not forgiving you so what could you possibly want." He put as much hiss in it that he could manage.

"I never lied to you Kurt." Zaiah said.

"So the narcotics on your bedside, they are what vitamins?" Kurt raised his eye brow.

"It doesn't make me an addict. Sure I take ADD medicine I didn't know it was such a big fucking deal."

"Go away. I never want to see you again." Kurt crossed his arms over his chest defensively.

"I can't ..." he said taking a step forward watching Kurt take one back.

"I mean it Zaiah. Go!"

"I think I love you." He said.

Kurt stared at him speechless, bile rising in his throat that he quickly swallowed back. Zaiah stepped closer to Kurt but Kurt backed up. "I said don't get any closer." He lost his strong commanding voice and Zaiah knew it so he ignored Kurt’s protest.

"Please Kurt, you are all I think about. Just Give me another chance."

"No, Zaiah," Kurt said starting to panic as Zaiah got in a grabbing distance. "You hurt me, I want nothing to do with you."

"Damnit Kurt!" Zaiah said taking another step grabbing Kurt's arm.

"Excuse me." Blaine said quickly approaching, Kurt pulled his arm away from Zaiah watching Blaine slip his workout T-shirt on. "is everything alright over here?"

"Everything is fine thanks, you can go," Zaiah said hotly watching Kurt retreat to stand beside Blaine. Blaine ignored him and looked at Kurt.

"Are you okay?" He asked in a soft voice.

"I'm fine now." Kurt said to only Blaine.

"You're trespassing which is a 4th degree felon, Leave my campus or I'm calling the police" Blaine said in a very clear assertive and authoritative tone.

"Who the hell do you think you are?"

"Who do you think I am?" Blaine threw back watching Zaiah roll his eyes.

"Can I just talk to Kurt for 5 minutes?" Zaiah said frustrated with Blaine.

"No you cannot." Blaine articulated.

"This is unbelievable." Zaiah said, "Look Kurt, I'm sorry, I fucked up. I just want you so bad."

"I want nothing to do with you." Kurt said his voice wavering. Sam and Mike came out side with Rachel standing close by if anything happened.

"So just like that we are over? I gave you everything Kurt! Just so you can screw me over and get with this fuck. Everything you hate about high school is standing right beside you and you want me to leave?" Zaiah started to shout.

"Are you even listening to yourself?" Kurt shouted back but Blaine shook his head and spoke in a soft calm tone.

"You don't want to leave then we will." Blaine said putting his hand on the small of Kurt's back, "Come on."

"This is bullshit." Zaiah stated turning around and walking to his car.

Blaine took Kurt’s hand and gave it a soft squeeze, "are you alright?"

Kurt watched Zaiah drive away before nodding his head yes. "Thank you." Kurt turned and hugged him.

"It was nothing Kurt, anytime. Here, I'll follow you home, make sure that jerk isn’t lingering around." Blaine said. Kurt didn't object instead he got into his car and watched Blaine get into his.

Blaine followed Kurt to work and Burt noticed as Kurt waved Blaine away. "What's that about?" He asked as Kurt walked to the register.

"Blaine just wanted to make sure I got home safely." Kurt said plainly as he checked in.

"Oh," Burt said highly confused but shook it off and returned to his car.
