His whole body ached, his head was pounding, if he stood it would be a good chance that he would end up throwing up. The room was too bright for his liking, his eyes squinted in hopes that he could focus better. He let out a groan and pulled the white bed sheets over his head. Wait, white? No Kurt's bed sheets were blue.
Kurt shot up, despite the fact that the quick movement made his stomach turn. He couldn't really focus on that though, he was too busy wondering where he was because he sure wasn't in his room. The boy slowly began to climb out of bed, ignoring his bodies protest. He opened the door and poked his head out.
"Morning."
Kurt jumped at the voice, his head quickly snapping to see who it was. "Gabe?"
The young man smiled and motioned for Kurt to come out of the room. He hesitated for a moment before nodding his head and stumbling out of the bedroom. "Easy there, don't want you to end up hurt now," Gabe muttered walking over to Kurt. He placed his arms around the younger boy, in hopes to help his balance.
" 'Em I at your place?" Kurt asked, his voice cracking.
"Yeah, you sorta passed out on the drive here," Gabe answered as he walked Kurt over to the leather couch.
Kurt looked down at his clothing and took notice that he was still wearing his outfit from the night before. "I guess that's why I didn't change..."
Gabe nodded his head and walked over to the kitchen. "I would ask if you wanted anything, but I doubt you even want to think about food," the young man called out.
Kurt let out a groan, he felt his stomach flop at the mere thought of food in his system. "That's what I thought." Gabe then took out a water bottle and handed it over to Kurt. "Here, try to drink slowly, okay?"
Kurt nodded, smiling softly at the other man.
Blaine was ready to leave school, the halls just seemed so empty without Kurt by his side. It was sad really, how much he needed Kurt to feel normal or even complete. How dependent he was.
"Blaine!"
The boy turned around, plastering a friendly smile when he noticed Tina hurrying over to his side. "Hey there," he greeted politely.
"Hey," she quickly greeted back. "Are you with Joey now?"
The question was so sudden that Blaine almost fell over from shock. "Wh-what?"
"So, are you?" She pushed on.
"Wh-no, why would you think that?" The boy asked, no sign of fake confusion.
Tina seemed taken aback by Blaine's reaction, she swore that she was going to get a confession from him. "Well, you two are always together, he practically always seems to find you where ever you are..."
Blaine instantly began to shake his head. "No, no-Tina, you're over analyzing this all, okay? Joey and I are only friends, nothing else."
Tina huffed but nodded her head. "Fine, okay." She paused for a moment, her eyes glancing around. "So... have you gone on Facebook lately?" Tina asked, her voice very slow and cautious.
Blaine shook his head, was it his fault for wanting to avoid Facebook for a while?
"Oh... well... I guess I should warn you now then... Kurt put some new photos up and well.. he's with another guy and they seem to be a bit more than friends," Tina explained, her voice filled with pity.
"Oh..." Blaine muttered. He wasn't showing it, but he was hurt, pained. The boy he loved more than anything in the world was off with some other guy. The situation made Blaine's heart heavy, as if it were going to fall out. "Well... I'm happy for him... really..." He lied.
Tina gave him a sad smile and simply nodded her head. She knew that the boy really didn't want to talk about Kurt and probably wanted some alone time, so she stepped away from him, and walked the other direction.
The boy inhaled deeply, hoping that it would help him calm down from the emotional outburst that threatened to escape from him. He knew that he had to get over Kurt and move on, he knew that it was the right thing to do. But how does one move on from their soulmate? How does one stop loving? Blaine grew desperate for the answers.
"Hi Blaine!" A familiar and very chipper voice speaks up. Blaine turned his head and noticed that Joey was almost by his side. Before the boy could even greet him, he was cut off. "I wanted to thank you for helping me out with my classwork, I think I might actually pass the class now," he continued on, a bright smile on his face.
Blaine returned the smile, though it was completely forced. "Hey, it's no problem, really-"
"Great! So, will you help me again?"
"Oh-um sure-"
"Great, so I'll see you later then?"
Blaine paused for a moment, as if he needed time to understand what exactly just happened. "U-umm, yeah, yeah sure," he muttered.
Joey nodded, the smile still on his face. "Awesome!"
Kurt hummed to himself as he fixed himself and Rachel some lunch. The two were pretty exhausted, mostly Kurt though. He still needed to catch up on his sleep, seeing that he hardly got any after the date with Gabe, even if it had been two days ago. Though, Rachel noticed that he was oddly chipper.
The girl cleared her throat, causing the boy to glance up at her. "So..." She muttered.
Kurt glanced up at the girl, his eyes wandering. "So..?"
"How are things with you and Gabe?" She asked, her face showed no change, it was like she felt obligated to ask. Kurt didn't care though, he needed to boast to someone about the amazing young man he scored.
"Amazing!" He blurted, dropping the pepper he had in his hands from excitement. The boy chuckled at the action and retrieved the fallen condiment. "Okay, so hear this-" He began. "We went out and I may or may have not drunken too much- but that doesn't matter, what matters is that he took me to his place and let me sleep there, no funny business." Kurt finished with a beaming smile on his face, he just couldn't conceal his excitement.
"Oh... wow.." His friend muttered.
"Oh?" Kurt set down the pepper next to the unfinished meals. "Is something wrong?" Kurt asked, his brows furrowing.
"I just... there's something wrong about him," Rachel admitted, standing up straight, as if she was ready for some sort of rebuttal to come out of Kurt.
"Excuse me? When did you start thinking this?" He didn't even wait for a response to come from Rachel. "Heck, last I checked, you were the one who wanted me to talk to him in the first place!"
Rachel nodded. "Yes, I know, but sometimes first impressions are wrong. I don't know, but there's just something that I don't like, Kurt. Also... don't you think-"
"Don't I think what?"
"Don't you think that you might be trying to just get over Blaine?"
Kurt's eyes grew wide, but he didn't answer her.
"Alright guys, we have a great assignment coming up!" Mr. Shue announced as everyone settled down in the choir room. "we're going to have a contest-" Before he could even finish his statement, all the students began to go on and on about how they were going to blow the competition away.
"I'm so going to win this."
"Come on Tina, you don't win anything," Brittany added onto the girl's statement.
"I think I'm ready to win something with my sweet skills," Artie stated, a smile beaming on his features.
"Save it, Wheels," Kitty huffed.
"Hold on guys, I still haven't said what it's about." Once Mr. Shue spoke, all the students calmed down, waiting on what the assignment was. "This will be a duet assignment, but the twist is you have to perform a song from an artiest of the opposite gender-" Once again, the Glee clubbers got rowdy again. At that point, Mr. Shue just stepped down, glad that they were at least excited about the duets.
"Hey Blaine," a soft voice reached Blaine's ears. The boy called out turned around, facing Joey. "Do you want to be my duet partner?" He asked, a hopeful look on his face.
Blaine smiled back at the younger classmate and nodded. "Sure, I'd really like that, Joey," Blaine answered.
Joey's eyes seemed to shimmer with happiness when Blaine agreed to work with him. "Great! Come to my house tonight, I think I have a song we could do!"
Blaine let out a soft laugh, finding Joey's excitement really endearing. "Yeah, I'll do that."
Though the two boys didn't notice, Tina was paying attention to the whole conversation, a frown set on her face.
Blaine knocks on Joey's door and it wasn't long until it opened, revealing the boy he'd come to see. "Hey Blaine!" He greeted excitedly. Before the older of the two could even respond, he was pulled inside and led up the stairs.
He was taken to a room that he assumed was Joey's, the Batman posters gave it away. "Okay, so I've been tweaking with my keyboard," Joey began as he walked over to the grey instrument, motioning for his friend to sit down on the black chair in the corner of the room. "And I think that I found a song that we could sing," Joey continued on, an expression of pure excitement on his face.
"That's great," Blaine commented, taking a seat on the chair. He gazed up at Joey, smiling. "Let's hear it."
Joey nodded and set his hands over the keys of the board and began to sing.
"You abandoned me
Love don't live here anymore
Just a vacancy
Love don't live here anymore
When you lived inside of me
There was nothing I could conceive
That you wouldn't do for me
Troubles seemed so far away
You changed that right away
Baby
You abandoned me
Love don't live here anymore
Just a vacancy
Love don't live here anymore
Love don't live here anymore
Just emptiness and memories
Of what we had before
You went away
Found another place to stay
Another home
You abandoned me
Love don't live here anymore
Just a vacancy
Love don't live here anymore
In the windmills of my eyes
Everyone can see
The loneliness inside me
Why'd ya have to go away
Don't you know I miss you so
And need your love
You abandoned me
Love don't live here anymore
Just a vacancy
Love don't live here anymore
You abandoned me
Love don't live here anymore
Live here anymore
Love don't live here anymore
Don't live here anymore
No no, don't, don't live here anymore
You abandoned me
Love don't live here anymore
No, it don't live here anymore
Love don't live here anymore
It don't live here anymore"
When the song ended, Blaine was stunned. He knew that Joey had an amazing voice, probably one of the best ones for a long time, but he couldn't believe that his voice was that powerful. "Wow, Joey, that's... that's amazing and... really, really relatable.."
