The clock by the tv read 3am when Kurt looked at it. Why was he awake so early in the morning? He never woke up so early. Kurt very carefully moved the heavy arm of a sleeping Mercedes off of him and slipped out of bed. This trip to his bathroom would require some stealth as there was a a room full of sleeping bodies everywhere. It appeared no one had left last night. Once Kurt had maneuvered his way through the piles of sleeping New Directions and a warbler or two. He found the door to his bathroom and opened it slowly and flipped on the light and slumped down to the floor clutching his treasured phone.

The tile was cold on Kurt’s skin through Blaine’s blue sweatpants but he didn’t care in that moment. He just wanted Blaine back in his arms where he belonged. He wanted him strong beautiful and healthy. He would take the scars just to have him back. He was madly in love with that man and had been since the first time he saw him on the stairs at Dalton Academy. Just as Kurt was allowing his mind to wander back to that day the phone in his hands began ringing sending panic through Kurt when he say the caller Id.

The phone read up Ken Anderson.

Kurt hastily answered the call.

Kurt: Hello Mr Anderson whats wrong? (Panicked)

Ken: Kurt you and my wife need to come to the hospital as soon as possible. I won’t say on the phone just get here soon please. I already called Hannah. She is getting dressed and will meet you in the kitchen.

Kurt: Okay (very shaken and alarmed) I will be on my way soon.

Ken: Please hurry Kurt.

Kurt: all right bye

With that the call ended.

Kurt scurried to his feet and felt the pang of his full bladder. That was why he had come in here in the first place Kurt suddenly remembered. Kurt hurried flipped the seat and lid up and handled his need. Once done and hands were clean and dry. He gave himself a once over in the mirror and headed out to find his shoes.

Once back in his room Kurt carefully navigated the bodies and found his way back to his bed where Mercedes and Rachel lay sleeping. The only shoes near the bed were Blaine’s sneakers where he had kicked them on Sunday night. Kurt then used as much stealth as possible and climbed carefully over three sleeping people one of which was Mr Shuester. Kurt could have sworn he had left last night but apparently not as he fumbled in the closet looking for shoes that matched. Once the shoes were retrieved and on his feet he carefully maneuvered his way back across the sea of sleeping people and out of his room gently closing his door.

Once out in the dark hallway Kurt made the quick decision to let his dad know he was leaving and where he was going. Kurt quietly made his way down the hallway and stopped momentarily and looked into Finns room the tv was on and but the bodies all over the room and sofa were all sleeping. Kurt noticed and told himself to remember this for later that Puck was asleep on Finns chest. The scene caused a small laugh to escape Kurt’s lips as he continued down the hall towards his dads room. Kurt noticed the hall bathroom light was on and assumed it was Blaine’s mom getting ready. He was wrong on that one.

Kurt quietly opened the door to his dad and Carole’s room. This room unlike the others was void of extra sleepers. Even the guest room had an extra body and that was Emma Shuester. A passing thought crossed Kurt’s mind had anyone actually left. It didn’t appear as though anyone had.

Dad Kurt said softly as he touched his shoulder. Yeah son what is it asked Burt half asleep. Mr Anderson just called something happened. I have to go to the hospital with Blaine’s mom said Kurt. Kurt give me a minute and I’ll go with you said Burt. No dad said Kurt stay here and sleep please I will be fine. Alright Burt replied be safe and call me as soon as you know something. I will dad bye Kurt said as he turned and left the room.

Back in the hallway Kurt saw the door to the bathroom open and the light flip off. Kurt stopped dead in his tracks as Karofsky appeared in the hallway looking ruffled and half asleep. All yours he said to a stunned Kurt. No I am on my way out to the hospital Blaine’s dad called something happened. Wait right there you are not going alone quipped Dave back at Kurt. Less than a minute later he reappeared with one shoe on and one sleeve to his coat and his keys and the other shoe in hand. Dave stopped and pulled on his shoe and coat and said quickly lets go. Kurt followed behind him.

Downstairs

Hannah stood staring at the clock on the wall which now read 3:31. It had now been 25 minutes since Kenneth had called her. Where was Kurt had Ken not been able to wake him? Should she go up and wake him herself? No that was foolish and the room was full of sleeping kids. Just as she decided to head up the stairs to find Kurt she heard the feet coming down the stairs. Two sets of feet she noticed who was with him? A moment later she knew who it was. Karofsky. Kurt greeted Blaine’s mom and said a little too loudly for her liking lets go. SHHHHH said Hannah and gestured towards the dark living room where a couple more sleeping bodies lay on the two sofas. Do not wake anyone up she snapped quietly at him. Dave said softly lets go my car is on the street.

Karofsky’s car

The ride to the hospital was silent for the most part. Dave had music softly playing as he drove along the mostly deserted streets of Lima. Kurt sat in the backseat of Dave’s Honda Accord and let his mind wander a little. The thoughts were of every kind of scenario he could come up with for what was going on at the hospital. The worst being that Blaine had suddenly died. That thought caused Kurt to randomly speak. No Kurt suddenly said from the backseat. No what called Dave from the front seat. A shocked Kurt said oh nothing just a bad thought. He isn’t dead Kurt said Dave a little to calmly for Kurt’s taste. How long until we get there Dave asked Kurt. Soon as this light changes I will be turning off the highway so two minutes tops. Please try and relax for me said Dave. I can’t Dave I’m sorry said Kurt. Please try okay for Blaine replied Dave. Fine muttered Kurt for Blaine. A moment later Dave was pulling up in front of the hospital. What floor is Blaine on Dave asked as Kurt and Hannah left the car. The sixth floor said Hannah. Alright I will meet you there but Kurt was already gone.
