“So what is the next assignment?”

“His name is Kurt Hummel, he is only 23, and he needs you.”

“Why is he sick?”

“Worse, he is discouraged.”

“Will this earn me my wings finally?”

“Yes, Blaine. Help Kurt Hummel and you will get your wings.”

“I'm on it sir!”

Meanwhile on Earth

Kurt Hummel stood overlooking the water rushing under the bridge. His thoughts are drifting back to the last 48 hours. All he can see is the look on Adam's face when he walked in on them doing that.  He couldn't believe it. Just three days ago Kurt was on top of the world, he was engaged to his handsome British boyfriend Adam Crawford, he was up and coming in the fashion world writing and designing for Vogue.com, and life was just finally coming together. He thought he left all these feelings back in Lima, Ohio.  Maybe everyone was better off without him. Rachel and Finn were living their happily ever after with Rachel on Broadway and Finn teaching acting classes at a local high school. Mercedes and Sam were living in LA, Mercedes chasing her dream of a recording contract and Sam chasing Mercedes and a modeling career.  Artie's first movie was a huge success, still living in New York but bouncing from city to city looking for his next shooting location. Even his old Dalton buddies, Jeff and Nick found everything they wanted, even each other.  Adam no longer needed him it seemed, so what good was he to anybody? Burt had Finn, the son the always really wanted, and the shop to keep him busy 6 days a week and Carole for the 7th day.

His thoughts were racing so fast he could barely keep up with where his mind was going. He just sat staring at the water.  Without even truly realizing what he was doing, he started to climb up on the top of bridge. He set with his legs dangling over the edge, wondering if what Jack said in Titanic was true. Would it hurt? Would it be quick and painless? He never was much of a swimmer, and the water was up high from the recent rain and snow storms.

Just when Kurt finally decided to let go and take the push he heard a scream. He looked down below and saw a man he hadn't noticed before, struggling in the water. Without even thinking Kurt let go of the railing and jumped into the water.  He grabbed the man by the jacket and with major difficulty finally dragged the man to the edge of the water. Both men were coughing, shivering, and trying to wring out their clothes as much as they could.

Kurt finally looked up and saw the most beautiful golden eyes he had ever seen. This man seemed to be glowing from the inside out even in the dark night.

“My name's Kurt.” He finally stammered out once he realized he had been staring.

“Blaine” the man extended his hand, but Kurt was almost afraid to touch him.

“So can I ask what you were doing jumping into that cold ass water?” Kurt was trying to regain his cool, and left Blaine's hand hanging.

“I didn't jump, I fell.” Blaine shrugged. 

“Oh, well. It looks like you are ok now. So I will just be on my way.”

“Wait Kurt, I am actually here for you.”

Kurt turned around and suddenly Blaine seemed larger than life, and his glow was more intense. The cold water must be messing with his head; he shook his head to try to clear it. His once perfectly coiffed hair fell in his eyes, and suddenly Blaine's hand was there brushing it back off his forehead. The static electricity was too much to handle and Kurt jumped back.

“What do you mean you are here for me? You don't know me.”

“No, I don't know you Kurt Hummel. But we are both going to help each other.”

“I don't need your help” Kurt sighed, the image of Adam and him flashing through his mind once again.

“You need my help more then you know. Now tell me your problems.”

Without thinking Kurt set on the grass, wrapped his arms around his knees and for the first time since he was 16 he really started to cry. Blaine sat down in front of him and pressed their foreheads together. Kurt barely had time to register the fact they both were suddenly dry before Blaine whispered the words Kurt needed to hear.

“You matter Kurt.”
