Oh how I miss Kurts awesome wedding planning skills.

When he gets home, all he wants to do is screaming in his pillow, but hes surprised when he sees his dad, the iron lady and her son Cooper standing in the living room.

 

To his bigger surprise, his dad looks human again.

 

"Hiya!" Cooper waves, "My mom and your dad summoned me here. No idea whats going on." He winks. Blaine likes Cooper, even though he is in L.A most of the time. Still, he feels like hes living in his shadow ever since his dad met him.

 

Cooper is young, talented and already rich. Also, hes dating women.

 

The iron lady grins. "Youre gonna tell them."

 

"No, no!" his dad grinned back, "You should."

 

"Oh come on."

 

"No. You deserve to."

 

"But I-"

 

"Noooo."

 

"Just tell us!" Cooper yelps and the iron lady runs over to hug Blaine. "He proposed! He proposed!"

 

"What?!" Cooper yells, "Mom! Thats- Thats amazing." He also joins the hug.

 

More hugs.

 

And cries.

 

And congrats.

 

"Oh and Blaine!" his dad actually sounds happy, "I know I havent always been that nice about your choir thing-y, but Id love to hire your choir thing-y as our band for the reception."

 


 

Blaine is shaking and crying.

 

Karofsky just stood too close and he was actually enjoying Blaines misery.

 

Out of nowhere, Mr. Schue grabs Blaines shoulders. "Blaine?" More shaking. "Blaine can you hear me?" When Blaine doesnt respond, he brings him to the principals office.

 

And Sue is the principal. Dont ask Blaine why. He doesnt know.

 

She is sympathetic and she really does want to do something, but she cant. Sometimes, Blaine really hates the American School System.

 

"Lady, this kid lays a finger on you, you come straight to me and I will expel him faster than a Thai take out place can ready back your delivery order," Sue says firmly.

 

It is nice, knowing that people are willing to help.

 

But still.

 

"Come on, Blaine. Were gonna be late for rehearsal," Mr. Schue says and Blaine follows him, but quickly turns back.

 

"Mrs. Sylvester?" he starts, "Thanks, but please, stop calling me lady. I know it might not be a big as the ongoing fear, but thats also bullying."

 

"Im sorry, I thought it was your name," she says and Blaine tries not to sigh too deeply, "As an apology I allow you to pick one from the following nicknames: Gel-o mel-o, Hobbit or Bowtie-Suspender-Pants."

 

"I like Hobbit the best," he says, "And that means something." Gel-o mel-o? Seriously?

 

"Damn, I liked Bowtie-Suspender-Pants the most."

 


 

Blaine doesnt want to face Sam, whose black eyes is currently being treated by Quinn.

 

Mr. Schue demands whats going on and the guys tell them what they did.

 

Blaine appreciates their help and is relieved that they finally noticed that theres something really going wrong with him, but theyre too late.

 

Right now, the only one who knows the full extent and who wasnt too late is Kurt.

 


 

"And tell me once again why we have to do this in my school? In my glee clubs choir room?" Blaine raises his eyebrows.

 

"Because Blainey, this is the perfect opportunity to prepare myself for my new role," Cooper answers, "Im gonna play this funky high school football player and now I have time to observe this high school."

 

"Whatever."

 

"I mean, I hope you dont mind, squirt? Is it okay if I call you squirt?" "Not really, but-" "Cool, soon-to-be-brother."

 

"Coop, I know how to dance," he laughs shyly, "Ive danced several times during glee."

 

"But your dad…?"

 

Blaines dad groans. "Do I really have to?"

 

"Of course, youre going to dance with my mom! It has to look perfect. Blaine, help your father." This time, Blaine is the one who groans.

 

Cooper starts clapping and chants: "One-two-three-four, one-two-three-four…"

 

Then, out of the corner of his eye, he sees Karofsky making a degrading hand gesture. He stops immediately, so his father stops too.

 

Cooper sees him too.

 

"Who the hell was that?" he demands.

 

"Who?" his dad asks, but both guys ignore him.

 

"Its- Its nothing, Cooper, lets just dance," Blaine tries to wave it off. "Squirt-" Blaine winces at the nickname "- the kid is making fun of you. Who the hell is that douche?"

 

Blaine stares in Coopers eyes and sees real concern there.

 

"His name is Dave Karofsky," he finally says, "Hes been… harassing me for some weeks. Seriously, Coop, lets just dance."

 

"Harassing?" his dad asks.

 

"Just… shoving me and giving me a hard time."

 

His dad bought it, but Cooper doesnt look convinced. "Theres more," he says.

 

Blaine closes his eyes. "He threated to kill me."

 

"Wait, who?" his dad demands, but Cooper is already after him. "Coop!" Blaine yells and follows him. Hes shocked to see Cooper pinning Karofsky against the wall.

 

Ready to kill him.

 

"Cooper!"

 

He and his dad get Cooper off Karofsky. The next thing Blaine knows is that hes sitting with Cooper, his dad, Karofsky and Karofskys dad in the principals office.

 

And that Sue expels Karofsky.

 

Blaine genuinely smiles for the first time in ages.

 


 

The wedding goes smoothly. The New Directions all sing Marry You by Bruno Mars when his father walks down the aisle. The iron lady follows him.

 

The ceremony is planned by this wedding planner and it goes quite boring after that. It is all the same. Brittany is sleeping most of the time.

 

The reception is wonderful.

 

"May I? May I?" they all hear and everyone turns to Cooper, "Hi, its me, Cooper. You guys know me from Hollywood. And now you guys will all know me as Cooper Stevens-Anderson." Some people laugh. "Thats right. Im keeping the Anderson part. Now time for the boring and official stuff. Id love to give a toast to the newlyweds and blah blah blah."

 

More people laugh when Cooper dramatically rolls his eyes.

 

"But Id also love to say something to my new baby brother Blaine." Baby brother Blaine! Seriously! "Blaine, now renamed to Squirt-" Again, laughter. "- this mightve been so much for you. Suddenly you have this extremely dashing big brother in your life. And I heard that annoying little Jewish girl and that enormously tall guy talking today-"

 

Finn and Rachel exchanged some glares.

 

"-and they were talking about their names getting combined. Well, today we have a new combination. I tried Coopaine and Blooper, but I went with Anderbros, because I really like the Anderson and were bros."

 

Okay, that was kind of touching.

 

"Anyway, yay happy couple!"

 

"YAY HAPPY COUPLE!" everyone repeats and they all raise their glasses.

 


 

"This is unacceptable!" this is one of those moments where the iron lady really is The Iron Lady.

 

"I dont understand!" Cooper yells angrily, "That dude threated my brothers life!"

 

Sue throws her hands in the air. "Im sorry. There is nothing I can do. There were simply no witnesses. I cant just expel David. Sure, I do believe Hobbit, but the school board doesnt. There is not enough evidence."

 

Blaine sits frozen still. He slowly processes everything while the iron lady and Cooper continue protesting. He glares at his dad, who is sitting next to him. He just looks tired.

 

Dad, say something.

 

When he doesnt, Blaine is the one to speak. "Mrs. Sylvester, I just- I cannot go back to being afraid. I do not feel save at McKinley anymore."

 

"Hobbit, I swear I will protect you. I can arrange my Cheerios to look out for that Karofsky kid, but that is sadly all I can do," Sue says.

 

And that is it.

 

Blaine sadly follows his family outside. "Well, Im gonna enjoy my last hours of freedom before I have to go back to the old I-am-so-scared-and-no-one-can-do-anything routine. See you at home."

 

He walks to the choir room.

 

Or at least, he tries. His dad stops him. He looks very tense and the iron lady too. Only Cooper is oblivious to the tension and just looks sympathetic.

 


 

"… solo at Sectionals!"

 

"Mr. Schue, if I may? Id like to tell the others something." Mr. Schue nods and sits down. Blaine takes a deep breath. "The school board overruled Karofsky being expelled. Hell be back tomorrow."

 

"Blaine…" Tina trails off.

 

"But I wont be."

 

It falls silent, but then Finn asks: "Wait, what do you mean?"

 

Blaine feels his eyes watering. "Im transferring. Immediately. Im going to Dalton Adacamy for Boys."
