“Hey Kurt!”

Kurt jumped in his seat at the noise and turned towards Blaine. “Blaine! Hi, I didn’t see you come in! How are you liking McKinley so far?”

“Well my first couple classes are quite boring, but now things are looking up.” Blaine replied with a wink.
The girl on the other side of Kurt giggled and Kurt flushed red.

“Oh, Blaine! This is Mercedes, Mercedes, Blaine.” Kurt made the introductions between the two friends.

“Nice to finally put a face to the name Blaine.” Mercedes said with a sly grin.

“Likewise.” Blaine replied.

The teacher came into the room, and Blaine made his own introduction as he had already done twice that day.

The class went by smoothly with Kurt and Blaine exchanging notes back and forth about the teachers horrible outfit and fake accent. It was time for lunch and Blaine followed Kurt and Mercedes out of the classroom and into the cafeteria. It was much different from Dalton’s cozy atmosphere and was much larger. Tables seemed to be just all over the place and it looked like every stereotypical highschool cafeteria. Jocks sat with jocks. Cheerleaders sat with cheerleaders. Band geeks sat with band geeks, and so on and so forth.

Kurt lead Blaine to a table where there were already 7 people sitting at the table. 2 of the boys had letterman jackets on and one of the girls was in a Cheerios outfit. Blaine saw Rachel at the table and she started waving at him.

“I see you’ve met the famous Rachel Berry.” Commented Kurt.

“Oh yeah I almost ran into her in the hallway before first. She attacked me with questions and even guessed I was gay. Quite the experience.”

The boys sat down and Kurt started introductions. “That’s Puck and Sam in the letterman jackets, Quinn in the Cheerios uniform, Tina and Mike at the end with Artie, and of course you already know Rachel. This is about half of New Directions. Beware at first, they don’t bite, but they are very nosy.”

“So new kid, have you and Kurt got it on yet?” The boy named Puck asked.

“Ugh.. Ugh.. Um.” Blaine sputtered.

“No Noah we have not. Leave the poor boy alone, he just got here.” Kurt answered for him.

Finn arrived then with two girls in tow, both in Cheerios uniforms. “Hey Blaine! Nice to see you again man.”

“Same Finn.” Blaine said with a smile.

“Those two girls are Santana and Britney. Britney’s a little.. slow. So be careful with her. Oh, and if she asks if you’re a dolphin, the answer is yes.”

“What’s a dol-“ Blaine started, but was interrupted by Britney.

“A dolphin is a gay shark silly!” Britney explained.

Santana sauntered up to Blaine and promptly sat in his lap. “So hot stuff, how about you, me and Breadsticks at 8 tonight?”

“Sorry Santana, but I don’t play for your team.”

Santana walked away looking defeated and sat next to Britney again.

After Britney’s explanation and Santana’s proposition, Kurt continued on and told Blaine about everyone in New Directions. Mike and Tina were dating, but they were not related. Quinn and Sam were in a complicated relationship were they didn’t know if they were dating yet or not. Puck was dating Santana. Artie was with Britney. Rachel and Finn were together. Which left Mercedes and Kurt. “We’re the loners of the group.”

“Not for long white boy.” Mercedes said with a wink, and Kurt blushed again.

The rest of lunch and the school day went by rather quickly, and soon it was time for glee club. Blaine followed Mercedes, whom he had his last period class with, to the choir room and sat down next to a smiling Kurt.

Mr. Schue walked in and noticed Blaine sitting there. “Hey there Blaine, you never mentioned anything about joining glee earlier! I’m guessing you’re here to audition for us?”

“You guessed right Mr. Schue. If you don’t mind.” Blaine gestured to the make shift stage.

“What will you be singing for us today Blaine?” My. Schue asked.

“If I Had You by Adam Lambert.”

Kurt’s eyes widened in surprise and Blaine sent him a wink which brought colour to the boys cheeks again.

“Ok, well the floor’s yours.”

So I Got My Boots On, Got The Right 'mount Of Leather
And I'm Doing Me Up With A Black Color Liner
And I'm Workin' My Strut But I Know It Don't Matter
All We Need In This World Is Some Love
There's A Thin Line 'tween The Dark Side And The Light Side Baby Tonight
It's A Struggle Gotta Rumble Trying To Find It

But If I Had You, That Would Be The Only Thing That I Would Ever Need
Yeah If I Had You, Then Money Fame And Fortune Never Could Compete
If I Had You, Life Would Be A Party It'd Be Ecstasy
If I Had You
You You You You You
If I Had You

Blaine’s performance shocked Kurt more than the one he did in the Lima Bean. As Blaine danced around the choir room, his eyes stayed locked on Kurt.

From New York To LA Getting High Rock N' Rollin
Get A Room Trash It Up 'til It's Ten In The Morning
Girls In Stripper Heels, Boys Rolling In Maseratis
What They Need In This World Is Some Love
It's A Fair Line Between A Wild Time And A Flat Line Baby Tonight
It's A Struggle Gotta Rumble Tryin' To Find It

But If I Had You, That Would Be The Only Thing That I Would Ever Need
Yeah If I Had You, Then Money Fame And Fortune Never Could Compete
If I Had You, Life Would Be A Party It'd Be Ecstasy
If I Had You
You You You You You
If I Had

Blaine focused hard on getting Kurt to understand that this song was meant for him.

The Flashing Of The Lights
It Might Feel So Good But I've Got You Stuck On My Mind, Yeah
The Fashion And The Stage It Might Get Me High
But It Don't Mean A Thing Tonight

That Would Be The Only Thing That I Would Ever Need
If I Had You, Then Money Fame Or Fortune Never Could Compete
If I Had You, Life Would Be A Party It'd Be Ecstasy
If I Had You
You You You You You
If I Had You

If I Had You
That Would Be The Only Thing That I Would Ever Need
Yeah If I Had You, Then Money Fame And Fortune Never Could Compete
If I Had You, Life Would Be A Party It'd Be Ecstasy
If I Had You
You You You You You
If I Had You

By the end, most of New Directions was harmonizing along with Blaine and he took a little bow.

“Wow, Blaine. I think it’s safe to say welcome to New Directions!” Mr. Schue said clapping.

“Thank you sir.”

Little did anyone in the room notice the pair of eyes that were staring right at Blaine through the choir room windows.

Once the group got settled, they started discussing setlists for sectionals, which were coming up in two weeks. Rachel was arguing with Santana over her getting a solo and Mr. Schue was trying to stop the two girls from ripping each other’s head off.

With the commotion, it gave Blaine the opportunity to lean in and ask Kurt what he thought of the song. “So Kurt, what did you think?”

“I never thought you would be an Adam Lambert fan, but I’m impressed! That was really well done!”

“I’m glad you think so.”

The rest of practice continued in the same manner, and Kurt and Blaine got ready to leave. Walking out to their cars, they didn’t notice that there was someone following them until he caught up. “Hey you, new kid!” The boy shouted out.

Both Blaine and Kurt turned and Kurt’s smile instantly dropped. Blaine regarded the boy that came up to them oddly. “Can I help you?” Blaine asked.

“Sure sexy, give me a number and I think I will be pretty happy. Give me a date and I will be ecstatic. I saw you sing in there and wow, that was hot.” The stalker
revealed.

“I’m sorry, but you are?”

“I’m Sebastian Smythe.” The boy replied smoothly.
