Chapter 9

Mercedes took Kurt on an unscheduled shopping trip in Westerville that weekend as a celebration for getting into the Warblers. Throughout the day however, the thought that one of his fellow glee club members was also Kurt's soulmate, was always on her mind. As they were walking through the mall, Mercedes tried to pry some information out of her best friend.

“So what are the Warblers like? Are they all nice, have you made friends?”

“Of course they are Cedes, in fact the whole school is really friendly and everyone has been really welcoming.” Mercedes smiled at the fact that Kurt seemed to be so happy. “The Warblers are all really great guys though, I mean, Wes, one of the guys who showed me and dad around on my tour day is the head councilman and he is really fair and seems to know what is best for the group. Nick and Jeff are hilarious and have the ability to liven up any and all boring lessons. Then there is Blaine, who I think is my best friend.” Kurt caught the girl's hurt expression. “My best friend at Dalton, Mercedes you know that no one can take my best friend status away from you!” Kurt's eyes lit at the mention of Blaine and Mercedes decided to ask for more details.

“Tell me more about this Blaine, I want to make sure that he is worthy of your friendship,” she said with a smirk. Kurt's cheeks darkened in a blush, and Mercedes realised that Kurt might just be developing feelings for this boy. Could he be Kurt's soulmate?

“Why don't we go and grab some dinner as it's getting late and I will tell you some more.” Kurt became a little flustered and linked his arm through Mercedes' and led them towards the food court.
