McKinley Sign Ups:
Football
"As if!" Kurt thought. The reasons behind not wanting to join football were pretty obvious. The McKinley high football team tortured Kurt to no end. Kurt didn't know why. Maybe they just didn't like that he was different
Hockey
"Nope" Kurt sighed. So far Kurt had only seen sign up sheets for sports. Maybe there wasn't anything for him.
Cheerios
Kurt grimaced. He loved watching the cheerios perform elaborate stunts but alas Kurt could never join, as his legs didn't work.
Kurt was about to wheel away from the bulletin board when he spotted an empty sheet.
Glee Club
Kurt's face lit up. He loved to sing. Whenever he had nightmares as a child he would wake up screaming. His mother would always come into Kurt's bedroom and soothe him with an old beetles song. Blackbird. Kurt smiled as he reminisced and sighed sadly at the thought of his poor mother. Kurt signed his name on the no-longer empty list and wheeled himself to the cafeteria. Humming Blackbird under his breath softly.
Kurt smiled as he watched a jumpy Mercedes talk on and on whilst filling her locker with books. They were discussing what songs to sing for their glee auditions tomorrow afternoon. "I'm panicking Kurt!" Mercedes turned to her best friend "What dong are you doing?"
Kurt's eyes sparkled as he replied "Blackbird by the beatles"
Mercedes eyebrows went up but didn't question his choice of song. As she started rambling on about song choices and what artist to choose from, something caught Kurt's eye.
"Hey Cedes?" Kurt said, interrupting Mercedes' debate on which artist would suit her powerful voice. She turned to Kurt; he had a dazed look in his eyes "Who's that?"
Kurt pointed to a boy. He was about their age. He had brown hair that swooped down slightly over his eyes; he had bluish-gray eyes and wore thick black glasses over them. The thing that caught Kurt's eye though was that he too was in a wheelchair.
Mercedes looked at the boy. He was wheeling himself around looking lost and slightly scared. "Should we go talk to him?" Mercedes offered, "He looks lost"
Kurt just nodded. Still slightly dazed. There was someone else at this school in a wheelchair? How did Kurt not notice him before? "Hi!" Mercedes' bubbly tone emerged Kurt from his thoughts "I'm Mercedes and this is Kurt!" Kurt nodded at Artie.
The boy looked relieved that someone was talking to him and looked surprised to see another person in a wheelchair. "I'm Artie. Artie Abrams" He offered a small smile to Kurt and Mercedes. He never had many friends. Like Kurt they all thought that Artie was weird because he was on wheels.
Artie shook hands with Kurt and Mercedes. "Hey," Artie looked up at Mercedes "Do you know how to get to Madame Carr's class?" Kurt's face lit up with a smile.
"That's where I'm headed!" Artie was surprised by Kurt's high voice but shook it off "I'll lead the way" Artie thanked Kurt graciously as they wheeled down the hall together.
I hoped you guys like this. I tried my best. Don't worry! Blaine will come in a bit later.
