"Mr. Schuster?" Kurt said breathlessly.

"Hey Kurt," Will said and turned to the nurse. "What's wrong with him?" He asked.

"Well I wasn't supposed to let Kurt know but," The Nurse started. "The doctor from the hospital said that he won't be able to sing for a while. His lung was punctured by a rib when it cracked. His lung is fixed up but he will have trouble singing if at all." The nurse finished. Will put his hand to his forehead but Kurt was lost in his own thoughts. Oh no! What about my solo? Or my duet with Blaine! I have to sing! I can't let Blaine down, I can't let Mr. Schuster down, I can't let the glee club down… Kurt's thoughts were demolished by a stinging pain in his right lung. Kurt restrained himself from yelling but it was no use. He let out a small yelp. He would have yelled louder if he could breathe deeper. Mr. Schuster looked concerned but the Nurse spoke before he could.

"I'm afraid that we can only let it heal, but I can offer medication for the pain." The Nurse said handing Kurt a small bottle of pills that appeared to be prescribed to him by his doctor at the hospital. Kurt wanted to take as many as he could to take the pain away. Kurt twisted the cap to open the bottle and was about to pour some in his hand when the Nurse stopped him.

"Carful there! Not too many, you don't want to get more sick now do you? Just take about two blue right now and two more blue pills when you go to sleep tonight ok Kurt?" The Nurse said as she reached out for Kurt to hand her the bottle. He took two blue pills and gave the bottle to her. The Nurse handed him a glass of water and he swallowed the pills. "Now, it may take a while for the pills to kick in." the nurse said handing the bottle to Will.

"Why are you giving me this?" Will asked. The nurse looked at him.

"You do have glee club in two period's right?" asked the nurse. Will nodded. "Well then, the blue pills are for every day and kick in slower. The red pills are for fast acting relief." She said. "If he feels light headed or his ribs hurt again you give him the red ones, unless he wants to bare through the pain." She finished.

"I thought you said he can't sing while he heals?" Will said. The nurse smiled.

"No, I meant he shouldn't sing much, maybe one song a day or less if he can." She told him with a smile. "Kurt, feel free to leave when you like, and for your own sake Kurt, don't overdose." She said lastly walking to her desk and clicking on the computer. Kurt shifted uncomfortably; his side still hurt a little, not as much as before now that he took the pills. Will stood up and Kurt's eyes followed him.

"Do you think you'll go to glee?" Will asked. Kurt looked surprised, he never missed a glee practice while in school; well, except for the time he was beaten.

"Oh, of course." Kurt told him.

"Ok then, I guess I'll see you then, feel better Kurt." Will said exiting, cramming the bottle of pills in his jacket pocket. Kurt just lay there, thinking and something was different. He felt no pain. Wow, I always thought pain killers never really worked. He thought as he sat up, he put his feet on the floor and stood up. No pain. Huh, well I guess I can get back to classes sooner than I thought. Kurt walked by the nurse and told her he was feeling better and he wanted to go back to classes. On his way out she reminded him about the pills. Didn't she trust him? Kurt couldn't wait to sing in glee that day, he had a song to show them for the bully rally.
