Kurt woke up early next morning. Not many people were awake and if they were they didn’t look like they wanted to talk. So Kurt just lay down on his bed and started to think. He thought about home. His future. Rougemount and Blaine. Blaine. The one person apart from Finn he could trust. His and Blaine’s friendship is going to be a good one. He could feel it. He really liked Blaine. Maybe more than friends? ‘Hold your horses Kurt! You only met today!’ Kurt thought to himself. He sighed and sat up to look around.

 A few more people were awake now. Finn was still snoring like a monster on his bed and he could hear a more quiet snore from underneath him, which was obviously Blaine. He then looked around to see the boy who was smirking at him on plane. The boy looked up and saw Kurt. He winked at Kurt and pulled out a magazine. Kurt blushed again. Who was this boy and why did he keep flirting? Was it flirting? Kurt shook this out of his head when he saw Blaine waking up.

“Morning sleepy head,” Kurt teased. Blaine looked up and smiled.

“Morning Kurt,” He yawned. Blaine was cute when he yawned. Kurt then decided to go and freshen up.

“I’m going to go wash and brush my teeth,” Kurt said climbing down from his bed.
 
After about an hour everybody had freshened up and were heading into the train station. As they were lining up to get their tickets the boys who winked at Kurt came up to him.

“Hey sexy,” he winked. Kurt was shocked at his attitude.
“Umm hi,” Kurt blushed.

“I'm Sebastian Smythe by the way,” the boy said stretching out his hand. Kurt shook it smiling.

“Kurt Hummel,” he replied.

“So Kurt who is the boy toy I have been seeing you with?” Sebastian winked.

“You mean Blaine? He’s just a friend nothing more,” Kurt explained.

“Sure for now. See you later Kurt” Sebastian smirked and with that he walked away. Kurt was curious about Sebastian. But that didn’t matter now. He collected his ticket and boarded the train. He looked around for Blaine but couldn’t find him. He must have gone onto a different coach. Kurt then decided to look for an empty compartment. At last he found one and went in and sat down.

He stayed like that for five minutes until he heard the door of the compartment open.
“Excuse me,” He heard a female voice say. He looked up to see a short girl with Brown hair standing at the door. “Sorry but everywhere else is full, can we sit here?” she asked.
Kurt said nothing but nodded. She then turned around and shouted down the corridor for someone so come over.

She then entered with two other girls. One was Asian with brown hair that had blue and purple highlights. Then the other girl was an African American girl. She was a bit chunky but her smiled was dazzling.

“Hello,” They both said as they entered.

The Asian girl sat next to Kurt and the other two across.
“So” the short girl started. “I’m Rachel.” She then pointed to the Asian girl “That’s Tina." Then she pointed to the African American girl, “And that’s Mercedes."

“Hi, I’m Kurt,” Kurt replied.

“Hi Kurt,” they all replied. 

“So Kurt where are you from?” Tina asked.

“I'm from Lima, Ohio in America” Kurt said.

“Really? I have never been to America. I really want to go though,” said Mercedes.

“Trust me Lima isn’t all that good. The people there were horrible. I got picked on everyday because I was gay” Kurt sighed.

“That’s horrible, you seem nice, why would someone pick on you because you're gay? So what?” Rachel complained. She got very protective at times. 

“That’s how people did things there. Hopefully it wont happen here” Kurt sighed.

“Over my dead body it will!” Rachel yelled.

“Rachel chill out,” Mercedes said trying to calm her down. Tina just sat there with a smile on her face as though she had seen it all before and found it amusing.

“So Kurt tell us more about yourself,” said Tina.

“Well I'm into fashion and Broadway. I love to sing and dance. I used to be in my old school glee club along with being a cheerleader for a while and a football player for about two weeks” Kurt said. Tina and Mercedes seems very happy while Rachel could barley contain her excitement. 
“Rachel what’s wrong?” he asked.

“WRONG?! What do you mean wrong? I JUST FOUND MY GAY BEST FRIEND!” she said leaping up to hug him. Tina and Mercedes where laughing hysterically now.

“Okay Rachel. Can you get off before I die from suffocation?” Kurt gasped.

Rachel let go of him giggling.
“Sorry im just excited,” she beamed.

“I can see” Kurt laughed. They spent 5 minutes talking before a girl came into the cabin. She had a very smooth face and long hair black wavy hair. She was quite tall with dark brown eyes. Her outfit was dark, yet bright at the same time, almost as if it couldn't choose to be one or the other .

“Hello, umm can I sit here?” She asked pointing to the space next to Mercedes.

“Sure,” said Rachel putting on a huge smile.
‘Gosh Rachel is cheesy,’ Kurt thought to himself. He then studied the new girl. She looked very nice. She sat down next to Mercedes and looked at everyone.

“So I'm Taylor. Taylor Smythe,” she beamed. This got Kurt’s attention.

“Wait. Smythe as in Sebastian Smythe?” Kurt asked.

“Umm yes, he’s my brother. We are not identical though. He has our mum's features and I have my dad's,” she explained. Everyone nodded.

“Okay so Taylor. What do you like?” Rachel asked obviously in the mood to make lots of friends.

“Well I love music. I taught myself how to play bass a couple years back. It's all I do except for writing stories and art,” she smiled. “I also like Gymnastics as well. Of course I have never done it but I love to watch it."

“I did gymnastics before,” said Kurt, “In my old school I was on the cheerleading team for about half a year. They taught us some gymnastics. Im a good tumbler, or so I have been told."

“Really? Maybe you could teach me some,” she giggled. Kurt nodded. He could do that.

The train had been going for and hour now and they were all discussing everything they could. From fashion to the style of the train.

“I fucking love vogue Kurt!” Rachel exclaimed.
“Same here” Mercedes said.

“And me,” Tina beamed.

“What about you Taylor?” Rachel asked.

Taylor looked up at them sounding a bit confused.
“What sorry?” she asked.

“Do you like vogue?” said Rachel. Taylor shrugged.
“Never read it, but I do like fashion,” She said obviously concentrating on what she was doing.

“What are you doing?” Tina asked her. Taylor looked up and smiled.

“A necklace. I love making stuff like this. I'm making it for something to add to my uniform because we are allowed jewelry,” she beamed. Kurt looked at the necklace. It was very good. Kurt nodded very impressed.

“O.M.G. THERE IT IS!” Rachel screamed looking out the window at a castle looking building over the hill. Kurt rolled his eyes at this. Rachel always overreacted.

They arrived at the school half and hour later and boy it was huge. Walking through the main entrance doors made Kurt feel like an ant. When they got into the main hall it was extraordinary. There were four rows of wooden benches and the chandlers on the roof here just floating. Nothing was keeping them up. Same with the coloured flags above the tables which had crests on them. Obviously they're the house crests. They were taken to the front where there was a big red chair and a cloak. Kurt looked over to Rachel who looked as confused as he did. He then looked behind him to see Blaine. Blaine smiled at his and looked back towards the front. Kurt doing the same. Then a tall women with short, blonde hair came onto the stage.

“Hello students. I'm Coach Sue Sylvester Deputy head of Rougemount school,” She said with a very cold voice. “Now there are four houses. Baseleg which is red. Liswerry which is blue. Risca which is Green and Carleon which is yellow. Now when you step up I will put the cloak on you. When I do it will change colour. The colour it changes to will be your house.” She picked up the clock and looked at a list.
“Santana Lopez,” she called out. Santana slowly stepped up and sat in the chair. Sue then put the cloak on her. They waited a couple of seconds before it turned red.

“Red! Welcome to Baseleg” Sue yelled receiving a cheer from the Baseleg table. The rest of the sorting was more or less the same. People step up, the cloak changes a colour and there house cheers for them. This is what happened.

The rest were people Kurt Hadn’t met yet. (We will meet some more of Risca later on). After that they had a huge feast and were told to go to there dorm rooms and that there stuff and uniform will already by there.

Kurt exited the hall to find Blaine there waiting for him.
“Hello there. Didn’t see you on the train” Blaine said jokingly.

“Sorry, I tried to find you. I guess we got put on different trains” Kurt explained.

“It's okay Kurt. Come on let's go”. Blaine smiled taking Kurt’s hand. Kurt’s heart raced at the touch. Did friends hold hands? Well yes, but did it feel this good? Probably not. They walked up the stone staircase till they got to there floor. The door to their common room was open already. They went inside to find a big bust cozy room. It had a big fireplace with pictures everywhere with sofas and chairs. It was all red to do with the colour but it looked lovely.

“Fancy,” Blaine whistled looking around. Kurt nodded in agreement and turned forward  where he saw a teacher with curly brown hair standing there getting everybody’s attention.

“Okay guys quite down please.” He said. “Now, my name is Mr. Shuester but you can all me Mr. Shue. Now I want you all to stand in a row and come up to me. I will then tell you your dorm number. Yes you will be sharing dorm rooms and if you need to change come to me and I will see what I can do. I will be tomorrow morning to give you more details”.
And with that everybody got into a line.

“Name?” Mr Shue asked.

“Kurt Hummel”

“Ah yes. Room 23,” He smiled.

Kurt nodded and went upstairs to see to doors. Girls and boys. He went through the boys which then had More doors saying 1st years, 2nd years, 3rd years 4th years 5th years 6th years and 7th years.

Kurt went though the 1st years to come to a corridor full of doors. He found 23 and opened it. He went in to find an old fashioned yet modern dorm room. It had a laptop and a flat screen TV. But it also had a fire place and beds with curtains around them. Kurt was going to like this place.
