Once Finn arrived Rachel went to let him in while Kurt stayed cuddled up to Mercedes. As soon as Finn laid eyes on Kurt he walked over to him, pulling him out of his embrace with Mercedes and into a hug of his own. They’d grown close over the last year, especially when he realised how much he fucked up not being there for Kurt when everything went on with Karofsky.

The second Kurt’s head touched Finn’s shoulder the tears started again. It was hard to believe there was just awkwardness between them both just two years before. “Leave him to cry it out before you try and get him to talk” Rachel mouthed. Finn luckily seemed to have got the message as he just stood there, holding Kurt close and rubbing his back.

After a while Kurt pulled out of the embrace feeling slightly better “Thanks Finn, sorry about the shirt.”

“Hey don’t mention it man, what are brother’s for?” Kurt smiled slightly at this they really were like brothers. “Would you mind if I ask what all this is about, as I must say I’m worried about you Kurt.” No offence, but you really do look awful, and the phone call I got off Rachel 20 minutes ago isn’t one I would expect very often.”

“No I don’t mind, however I may not be able to explain everything, but the girls know it all so they can. Also you gotta promise not to tell Dad or Mom until I’m ready. Which maybe a few days ok?”

“No I don’t mind if you can’t tell me I just want to know you are alright. The only way I would tell Mom or Dad is if your life is in danger.” Finn said quickly he really did want to know why Kurt was so upset.

“His life isn’t in danger, but you might be endangering a few people’s lives after this conversation” Rachel muttered under her breath, in a volume she didn’t think was audible, but apparently it was.

“It’s Karofsky again isn’t it? I thought he would have quit after how he ended up coming out and all the help you gave him.”

Kurt shook his head, in a way he kinda wished it was Karofsky instead of this “No it’s not Karofsky.”

“Looking at you right now I’m not sure if that’s a good or a bad thing.”

“Once you hear I think you will wish it was Karofsky” Mercedes offered.

“Okay stop there now I really do need to know what is going off, spill please Kurt.”

“Finn calm down I’m about to tell you. Please just don’t interrupt or flip out until I’ve…no we’ve finished explaining. Kurt was looking Finn directly in the eyes making it clear to him that he was being serious. Mercedes offered Kurt her hand which he accepted and she squeezed lightly offering comfort.

“You two will carry on if I can’t tell him everything wont you?”

“Course we will baby” Mercedes ensured.

“Okay. Well Finn Blaine and I had a coffee date in the Lima Bean today. I turned up at the Lima Bean bang on time, I knew he was there I saw his car. Well I walked in and scanned around to try and find him.” Kurt started shaking slightly at this point knowing what he was about to tell Finn Mercedes squeezed his hand tighter trying to reassure him that everything would be ok. “Well I laid eyes on him at his and mine usual table and there he was, gosh I don’t know how to say this…kissing Sebastian.

Kurt hadn’t even finished the last word when Finn jumped in. “WHAT THE FUCK YOUR JOKING RIGHT? ARE WE ACTUALLY TALKING ABOUT THE SAME BLAINE, YOUR BLAINE? BLAINE ANDERSON?” Kurt nodded fresh tears welling up in his eyes. Finn placed a hand on his on Kurt’s shoulder and squeezed gently trying to add to Mercedes reassurance. “Kurt I’m actually struggling for words right now. I really want to go and punch his face in. It will be ok mate, you’ve got some good friends and we will all help you get through it.”

“Yes Finn my friends are amazing and so are you. I just never thought he would do this to me you know. We were each other’s first in almost all ways, we’ve both told each other we never wanted to say goodbye to each other. He transferred schools to be with me I really thought that meant something you know. He has given me no reason to expect he was up to something like this. He was just as loving as ever, and we’ve been spending just as much time as normal together. I know this may seem stupid to you and Rachel, I mean no offence but you guys have broken up and got back together so many times. But I thought we were kinda different you know, how do I put this, well there isn’t exactly many people like us around here. Why couldn’t he have just told me how he was feeling anything would have been better than this?”

“Oh Kurt, I know it’s hard sweetie. Yes your brother has been an arse so many times, and I’m sorry to cut in on the brotherly conversation the two of you are having but your phone has been going off every few minutes since you got here and it doesn’t seem to be dying down. Do you want to have a look, or at least let me have a look before turning it off for you?”

“You can do it, and change my wallpaper why you’re at it please.”

Rachel took Kurt’s phone a studied it for a minute. “Kurt you have over fifty missed calls and over twenty texts all from Blaine, he really does seem worried. He wants to know that you are at least safe. Can I at least call him and tell him you are?”

Kurt nodded slowly. “Yes you cannot that he really deserves to know, but please do it out side.”

“No but that’s the thing about you isn’t it Kurt, you are so moral and compassionate you don’t like anyone worrying. Now come here and give me a hug.” So he did.
