Blaine: You're in glee club?

Kurt: I didn't tell you?

Blaine: Hmmm lets see... No! ! !

Kurt: I know it's not exactly cool but you don't need to make a big deal out of it...

Blaine: Actually I think it's very cool

Kurt: Lol, no you don't

Blaine: I'm serious, I love show choir

Kurt: You're not joking?

Blaine: Of course not! I'm in the glee club at my school

Kurt: No way! Do you compete?

Blaine: We've already got through to our regionals

Kurt: Us too!

Blaine: Hey maybe I'll see you at nationals ;)

Kurt: Well that depends doesn't it?

Blaine: Mm, we both have to get through regionals first which won't be easy

Kurt: Oh I'LL definitely be at Nationals, It all depends on how good your group is ;)

Blaine: I'm the lead vocalist, so naturally we're amazing

Kurt: Ok now I'm jealous, I don't get many solo's

Blaine: Oh sorry for bragging :(

Kurt: It's partly my own fault, I almost got a solo last year but I sabotaged my own audition

Blaine: Why on earth would you do that?

Kurt: My dad was already struggling with the fallout of me coming out, and I was worried about how much worse it would be for him if I sang a girl's song in front of a thousand people

Blaine: Really? I sing girl's songs all the time and no one bats an eyelid :/

Kurt: Like what?

Blaine: Katy Parry and Pink! are my favourites

Kurt: Not exactly the same as singing 'Defying Gravity' in the original key

Blaine: That was the song?

Kurt: I had to pretend to throw the high F note, and it's one of my favourite songs as well:(

Blaine: I don't believe you

Kurt: Which bit?

Blaine: I know female singers who can't hit a high F

Kurt: Haha, It's well within my range

Blaine: I don't believe you

Kurt: Broken record much?

Blaine: You didn't sing Defying Gravity

Kurt: I did! In fact our teacher had the same opinion as you and wasn't going to let me even audition for it because he didn't think a male should sing it

Blaine: Hey! I'd never say that you SHOULDN'T be able to sing it...

Kurt: When my dad found out he went straight to the principal's office and threatened to sue the school for discriminating against me

Blaine: Your dad sounds pretty amazing

Kurt: He is, and I don't worry about stuff like that anymore, I know he would handle it

Kurt: You have no idea how hard it was for me to throw that note and let Rachel think she was better than me

Blaine: Wait a second, Rachel as in the Rachel I just spoke to?

Kurt: She's our unofficial female lead

Blaine: Ok ok I believe you and wow... your voice must be really unique

Kurt: Most people say abnormal or weird but I prefer unique ;)

Blaine: How do you not get more solos?

Kurt: Well actually I'm going to have a solo at our regionals, that's what me and Rachel are picking songs for

Blaine: Good for you :). I also have a solo too. Well all the solos actually...

Kurt: You must have quite the unique voice yourself if your club lets you have every solo, I wish I could hear it

Blaine: Well I'll send you a .mp3 sometime

Kurt: Oh I wasn't actually asking you

Blaine: But you said you want to hear me sing?

Kurt: I do...

Blaine: So I'll sent you a .mp3 sometime ;)

Kurt: Ok, but that doesn't mean I'm going to send you one back!

Blaine: Noted, although I'd really love to hear you sing

Kurt: Unlikely to happen unless you get through to Nationals ;)

Blaine: Very likely to happen then

Blaine: So what would you like me to sing for you?

Kurt: Oh I get to make requests?

Blaine: You can request, but I can say no

Kurt: Well I'll have to think about that

Blaine: Just a tip, I can't reach a high F

Kurt: Haha I figured


"Kurt get off the phone please, I want to talk to you" Kurt heard his dad call. He was in the middle of a conference call with Rachel and Mercedes, telling them all about his conversation with Blaine the day before. Mercedes was excited to find out Kurt and Blaine had such a big thing in common. Rachel instantly wanted to know what glee club Blaine was a member off. Kurt told her that he hadn't asked and he forbade Rachel from asking or trying to find out. He hated the idea of someone searching for him online trying to find out about his personal life, he wasn't about to try and do the same thing to someone else. The prospect of seeing Blaine at nationals wasn't something he even took seriously. He didn't know how good Blaine really was and underneath the bravado Kurt wasn't sure he was good enough either. The New Directions came in last place the previous year and the Warblers looked set to give them just as much competition as Vocal Adrenaline did.

He ended his phone call and wandered into the kitchen where his dad was waiting.

"I hope you know that was a very important phone call you interrupted," Kurt said, sitting down on a stool.

"Well this is more important," Burt said seriously.

"What is it? What's wrong?" Kurt asked, immediately expecting bad news.

"Nothing's wrong calm down!" Burt laughed, starting to smile. "Remember the other day I mentioned that we'd put an offer down on a house? Well it's been accepted."

"That's great!" Kurt cried. "When are we going to move?"

"On the 22nd, just in time for Christmas! And I'm gonna need your help packing, ok?"

"Of course," He agreed. "In fact I'm going to go and start organising my things."

Kurt was almost at the door when his dad addressed him again.

"Oh one more thing, the broadband is getting disconnected tomorrow so if you need to use the internet you'll have to go to your school or to the library."

Kurt stared at his dad. For some reason his words felt like a punch in the stomach. "Wh- what? Why are you disconnecting it? The 22nd is weeks away."

"Kurt," his dad said, surprised by his reaction. "I'm not going to pay for a month of broadband that we're not going to use. What's the problem?"

"Nothing... it's fine," Kurt lied after a long pause.

"Ok then... weren't you going to go organise or something?" Burt asked.

Kurt walked out the door without saying another word and went to his room. He didn't go straight to his computer as he usually did these days and just sat on his bed instead. What was wrong with him? It was only going to be a couple of weeks, it didn't matter. So why did he feeling like crying?
