2015, still

"When Wes barges into your room like that, you know that shit's about to get down."

Blaine is shaken. It's been a heavy week.

"When the news about Dalton burning down reached Wes, he hopped on a plane to Columbus. Anyway, I was with Kurt at my mom's house, since I'm living there, when the door got slammed. A few second later, a bewildered Wes is standing in the doorway with a shocked David behind him.

Kurt and I just got back from our honeymoon. We went to my mom's house, and I saw the look on her face… and I just knew that it was bad. There was a fire, a big one, and all of Dalton is gone. Word got around, but I also contacted the Warblers. I mean, the alumni. My friends.

A couple of them are coming back to Ohio too. Wes, David, Kurt, John and I are about to pick up Trent and Thad. We're just… there are no words, Lolo. Dalton is gone. Dalton.

The place that brought me, in a way, back to life. The place where I learned to live with depression and trauma. The place where I met my friends. The place where I met Kurt. Jeez.

Mr. Schue and Rachel were happy to let the Warblers join the New Directions, but all the other students… the boarders and the day students… what's going to happen to them? I know that I don't know them. My friends all graduated, and my kids are going to McKinley, but all the others? They're probably going to different schools all over the country. So many friendships are about to break. I can't even imagine…" he trails off.

"I'm happy that my kids are safe. Yes, I just called them my kids. I'm happy that I get to see them again.

I did have to talk about this with Jane, though. She left Dalton because of the Warblers, and now they're forced to work together. I brought Skylar along, and they shook hands. Things are still rocky, but I have faith that this might work out.

The New Directions has four coaches now. But not for long. Kurt's semester away is about to end, Rachel is torn between school and Broadway, and I'm going too. I'm glad that Mr. Schue decided to leave Vocal Adrenaline. This might all work out."
