Blaine

Blaine sat at the table with Nick and Jeff they had been there for nearly a hour just chatting and talking about their high school days, and the Warblers and what their old friends where up too.

“…Wes is in his second year at some doctor collage last I heard” Nick said “And David, well I can’t really remember”

“He applied to UCLA, we chat now and then he has a girlfriend already” Blaine replied
“Thad went to Japan, he is there for two years, not sure what for, David didn’t know”

“Thad is in Japan? Actually I’m not that surprised” Jeff said “I would love to go to Paris or maybe Hawaii I hear they have awesome beaches”

“Kurt wants to go to Paris” Blaine said off handedly

“Oh really? Did he ask you to go with him?” Nick teased

“Why would he ask me to go with him?”

“Don’t play dumb with us, I’ve seen how you guys look at each other” Nick replied

“He has a boyfriend Nick which you know very well as he told you the first day you met”

“Notice how he didn’t mention his Nick?” Jeff asked

“I did notice that Jeff”

“Oh shut up you two”

“So while we are talking about the devil incarnate, where is he tonight didn’t you invite him?”

“I did but after I told him where I was going he said he was busy, and should really get some of his school work done. Not that surprised really but hey at lest I have you two to keep me sane”

Nick and Jeff started to laugh “If you’re after sanity our dear Blaine, you came to the wrong place” Jeff giggled

Blaine just smiled he was thankful that he had Nick and Jeff to hang with they had been pretty close in high school, the three of them seemed to get one another. Nick and Jeff didn’t know what it was like to be bullied as much as what Blaine did as they had started at Dalton as soon as high school started where as Blaine had gone to a public school freshmen year and only transferring after he and a friend of his had been attacked after a school dance.

His father had been pissed that his son had been attacked on school grounds, and went in threatening to sue the school if something wasn’t done about it. The principal just said he had no control over what happened the boys had been charged, but were back in class a week later.

Blaine had never seen his father so angry before, saying that his son had as much right to go to that dance as anyone else, that he had the right to feel safe walking down the corridor in school without getting bullied. Jackson and Joyce decided that the public school was no longer safe for him and pulled Blaine out of the school the very next day and enrolled him at Dalton. That had been the moment when Blaine realized that his father still loved him, regardless of his sexuality. He still remembers what his father told him that day…

“You are my son and I love you, and nobody has the right to make you feel less of a person for being who you are, do you understand me? Nobody” That was the first time in a while that he had hugged his father.

And that was that he started Dalton at the beginning of the final semester met Nick and Jeff, Joined their glee club and thanks to the no bulling policy he no longer feared getting beat up or shoved into lockers or tossed into dumpsters. And the rest as they say is history.

That was when spotlight Karaoke was announced and two spotlights went round the room. Nick and Jeff started laughing when it stopped on Blaine who walked up on stage.

It was Blaine’s turn to laugh when he saw who his duet partner was.

“Rachel? Wow what a coincidence, I didn’t know you were here I thought you were with Kurt”

“Oh He’s here” she said with a smile “So shall we do this?”

“Absolutely” With that the music started and they began to sing Blaine starting

You were workin’ as a waitress in a cocktail bar
when I met you
I picked you out, I shook you up and turned you around
turned you into someone new
Blaine couldn’t help but get into this song, and couldn’t help showing off up on stage. He just loved to perform and singing was his favorite thing to do.
Now five years later on you’ve got the world at your feet
Success has been so easy for you
But don’t forget, it’s me who put you where you are now
and I can put you back down too
Rachel joined him on the chorus still smiling.
Don’t, don’t you want me?
You know I can’t believe it
when I hear that you won’t see me

It’s much too late to find
you think you’ve changed your mind
you’d better change it back or we will both be sorry
They both began to jump around the stage smiling like idiots but Blaine and, it looked to him, Rachel didn’t care how they behaved, up here they could be themselves and he loved it
Don’t you want me, baby?
Don’t you want me, ohh?
Don’t you want me, baby?
Don’t you want me, ohh?
I was working as a waitress in a cocktail bar
That much is true
But even then I knew I’d find a much better place
Either with or without you
Blaine pretended to fan himself with his hand as Rachel started to sing her verse acting all seductive
The five years we have had have been such good times
I still love you
But now I think it’s time I live my life on my own
I guess it’s just what I must do
This time it was Blaine’s turn to join Rachel both their voices working well together, he would definitely want to sing with Rachel again
Don’t, don’t you want me?
You know I don’t believe it
when you say that you don’t need me
It’s much too late to find
When you think you’ve changed your mind
you’d better change it back or we will both be sorry
Don’t you want me, baby?
Don’t you want me, ohh?
Don’t you want me, baby?
Don’t you want me, ohh?
Don’t you want me, baby?
Once they finish the song the two of them started laughing.

“Oh my god that was so much fun” Blaine said Rachel just smiled more

“I know right? Ok so I’m gonna hug you now” she said before throwing her arms around him, he returned the hug before pulling away.

“Why don’t you guys join us, it should be fun”

“…Us as in you and…?” Rachel asked

“Nick and Jeff are here too” he said pointing over to the table only to see three extra people there. “Looks like they’re already there, Shell we go?” Blaine asked hold out his hand for her to take, as the two of them left the stage.

Rachel

Rachel wouldn’t say she knew everything, she did obviously, but she would never say it out loud. She also prides herself on being a bit of a psychic, she can’t see the future or anything but she just knew things, like right now watching Kurt and Blaine, she knew there was something going on between them. Not as in cheating or anything like that, Kurt would never do that, but more like a connection. Something a normal person wouldn’t notice right away. She wasn’t even sure if Kurt and Blaine had seen it yet but it was there she was sure of it. And if she knew anything at all it was that Kurt and Blaine were meant for each other.

Rachel has always been able to tell when a couple was meant to be together, like her and Finn, or Mike and Tina, she didn’t really see Britt and Artie going far because she always had this feeling that she was meant to be with Santana and of course she was. And now it was happening again, it was no secret that she didn’t like Sebastian, well to everyone but Kurt, most thought she behaved that way because he was taking away precious time with Kurt from her, which he did Her and Kurt were BFF’s and Sebastian hates her, she guessed it was because she could see right through him and he knew it. Even if they were right and she was a little jealous of the time Sebastian stole from her, if those two had met in high school, she would have freely given it up time with Kurt if it had been for Blaine.

So that was it, it was time for a little meddling; she was going to get rid of Sebastian and then let operation ‘Get Kurt and Blaine together’ begin. Of cause she was vaguely aware that Kurt mentioned Blaine had a boyfriend too but if the way he has been acting around Kurt lately is anything to go by she is fairly certain she can get rid of him too.

“Rachel?” She snapped out of her little inner monologue and smiled at Kurt and Blaine across from her completely ignoring Finn who had spoken.

“I think Kurt and Blaine should get up and sing a Duet together what do you all think?” She looked around the table and everyone was just looking at her as if she had three heads, a lot more intense then the two heads look that’s for sure. “What?”

“Nothing it’s just that usually you like to dominate a conversation but you haven’t said a word for the last hour and now you think Blaine and I should get up a sing? I’m worried about you Rachel” Kurt said in mock concern while reaching a cross to feel her forehead “Are you getting sick?” She slapped his hand away and glared at him.

“I love you Kurt but you can be a real ass when you want to”

“Why thank you Rach, that means so much to me, but seriously, you want us to sing, and not with you?”

“Nope just you two, I want to hear how you sound together, I think it will be awesome”

Rachel watched as Blaine studied her and then turned to Kurt.
“What do you think should we make Rachel happy and go put down our names so we can sing a song for her?”

“OK, do you have a song you would like to hear Rachel?” Kurt asked

A huge smile spread across her face “I do actually; I’m going to go put you guys down now”

By the time Kurt and Blaine were called up the conversation was in full swing but they left the table, once Kurt and Blaine where up on stage the music started, everyone started laughing.

“Don’t go breaking my heart?, really Rachel you are my new idol” Laughed Nick the five of them watched as Kurt and Blaine’s performance began.

“They really are quite good together aren’t they” Jeff said “You now I haven’t seen Blaine this happy in a long time”

“I know what you mean, Kurt’s Boyfriend doesn’t even make him this happy, I mean Kurt loves to perform but he seems to be, I don’t know what’s the word Rach” Finn asked

“Glowing” Puck supplied “To tell you the truth I haven’t seen Kurt that happy ever, he took a lot of crap at the start of high school, hell I was one of the ones that was giving him crap at the start. But once you take the time to get to know him he’s pretty cool.”

“Don’t worry dude Kurt doesn’t hold grudges, coz gives you wrinkles and causes undue stress or something like that, but you guys are right they do make a cute pair”

Rachel couldn’t help the smile spread across her face she had been right and even her friends could see it too.

“It’s strange you know Sebastian always had a way to make Blaine feel bad about himself, but with Kurt his always…” Jeff began

“Smiling” Nick finished

“Same with Kurt’s boyfriend Kurt would come back from seeing him and look so defeated, wait …Sebastian?” Puck asked

“Yeah, Blaine’s boyfriend” Jeff replied

“That is so weird Kurt’s boyfriend’s name is Sebastian too he went to that all boys school, Um Dalton and was some kind of bird or something”

Rachel watched the look on Nick and Jeff’s Faces and she didn’t like what she saw

“…A Warbler?” Nick asked

“Yeah that’s it, how did you know?” Finn asked

“Because we went to Dalton and there was a Sebastian there, he was a Warbler and Blaine was dating him”

“Please tell me his last name wasn’t Smythe, please tell me It wasn’t Smythe” Rachel begged

“His name was indeed Sebastian Smythe Rachel” Jeff said

“Oh my god that is so weird that was Kurt’s boyfriend’s last name… Oh wait does that mean…” Finn asked looking at Rachel

“Yes Finn, They have been dating the same guy” Rachel sighed she loved Finn she really did but sometimes he was clueless

“I knew I didn’t like that guy” Puck growled “He was always so, so… I don’t even have a word for it, but I think I will have to cause him some serious pain”

“How can they be dating the same guy wouldn’t you think they would have met by now some how” Finn asked

“Sebastian was always good at hiding things we didn’t even know, I mean we knew he had friends out side of Dalton but we never met them obviously” Jeff said waving at them

“He was never my friend he was just dating Kurt, and I was polite for his sake because I am his friend, so what do we do? Should we tell them?” Puck asked

“I don’t think we should, it could complicate things” Rachel said

“Are you kidding me? Kurt would kick our asses if he found out we knew and didn’t tell him” Puck said

“Maybe Rachel’s right. What do you two think?” Finn asked

Nick and Jeff looked at each other and Rachel just hoped they would be on her side

“I think we should go to Sebastian and give him the chance to own up first” Nick said

“Yes” Rachel couldn’t help but cheer a little

“But if he doesn’t we go to our boys and tell them, deal?” Puck asked

“Deal” they all chimed

“Look who we found” Came Kurt’s Voice a few minute later “we just finished our song and we were on our way here and we ran into this beautiful creature.”

Rachel turned to see Harmony standing between the two boys.

“Hey Rachel, sorry for interrupting but I didn’t know who else to go to”

Rachel saw the look on her room mate’s face and she knew something was very wrong; she wasn’t a horrible person if someone needed help she would give it. She jumped up from her seat and pulled her into a hug, she could feel warm tears on her neck so she held on tighter, and rubbed up and down her back soothingly. “What happened” she asked looking to Kurt and Blaine for answers

“She was with some guy but when he found out she wasn’t going to put out he left with someone else leaving her with no way home”

“What? Who the hell does that?” Puck asked everyone looked at him “Hey I always make sure I take the girl home safely before I go find someone else, and I would never leave a sweet thing like Harmony alone in a place like this anything could happen to her”

“It’s ok Dude we know, it just weird that it came from you is all” Finn said

“Come on lets sit down, we will get you back to the dorms tonight don’t worry”

“Thanks Rachel” Rachel smiled Harmony isn’t all that bad, maybe they could be friends someday “What you lack in talent, you sure make up in kindness” Or maybe not.
