Blaine attended Westerville High for his freshman year. He appeared carefree and happy, but he knew that his perfect life was fake; his secret attraction to boys lurked constantly in the back of his mind, and one day he was through with hiding and admitted to everyone that he was gay. His mother and father took the news surprisingly well. Sure, Dad had a phase during which he tried to turn Blaine straight, but that was all in the past. Dad came to accept him for who he was.

Most of his friends at Westerville, however, didn't.

It became more obvious to Blaine that he was unwelcome there when the night of the Sadie Hawkins dance arrived. He had asked his friend Jake to go with him – the only other out gay kid – and, surprisingly, he'd said yes. When the night was over, and they decided to leave, a few homophobes from school jumped them as they were headed to Jake's car. Blaine's parents were so furious when he came home with bruises and broken bones that they let him transfer schools.

McKinley High wasn't his first choice, but he still liked it well enough, despite his desire for a zero bullying tolerance policy. He appreciated the friends he was able to make there. They weren't the greatest friends in the world, but they accepted him and supported him. Blaine supposed that was enough. Occasionally, he would get shoved into the lockers and slushies thrown at him, but it wasn't too bad considering what he'd left behind at Westerville.

No one at McKinley really knew he was gay. Blaine's friends in glee knew of course, and he considered himself to be out and proud, but he didn't really feel the need to flaunt it. It didn't seem like there were any gay guys at McKinley anyway. Besides, it wasn't anyone else's business if he was or not.

His friends in New Directions were surprised when they found out. Blaine didn't really scream gay. He could've passed for straight, but it would feel like he was hiding a crucial part of himself from them. So, Blaine told them. It didn't really matter that he was, but he would rather the rest of the school not know. They wouldn't accept him.

He loved his friends in New Directions, but they were crazy. There wasn't a lot of times of real peace, between the club. They fought over solos, they fought with other show choirs, they fought over relationships, they were mad at each other, they loved each other. The cycle was hard to follow.

Blaine still missed them though. It was his senior year and more than half of the glee club members had graduated. There were many tears that day and Blaine hoped for the best for his old friends as they went on to their dreams.

Senior year.

Blaine had his eyes set on going to NYU after he graduated. He didn't really know what he wanted to be. All he knew was that it would be related to singing. The idea of getting a boring desk job, wasn't an option he would fall prey to. Not many of his friends still in school knew what they wanted to do either.

What most of his friends had forgotten was they needed new members. With the original members gone, the group's enthusiasm seemed to die out. But they knew they needed to move on and build from what was left.

Blaine was with Jeff and Tina hanging posters. The combination of their group was a bit odd. Tina, usually was with Mike Chang, her boyfriend's side at every moment possible. She was a bit shy, but Blaine enjoyed her presence just as much as Jeff's.

David and Wes were some of his friends that Blaine considered to be closer to him than others. David had graduated last year, and both Wes and Blaine felt odd that their trio was gone. Blaine still of course liked hanging with Jeff, but Jeff was Nick's best friend, who had also graduated.

Tina and Jeff hadn't said much to Blaine since the school year began. Heck, not many of the others had either.

Everyone had felt awkward around each other without the rest of the gang. They even missed Rachel Berry, who was usually a pain in the ass.

"Do you think we need to put up anymore ?" Jeff asked them, after hanging the fourth, sign-up sheet.

"Nah," Blaine responded, glancing back at how many they'd already hung up in the hallway, "I think we're good."

"Want to head back to see if Mr. Schue has anything for us to do?" Tina asked.

"We should just-" Blaine began.

"Blainey-bear!"

Suddenly something – or rather someone – slammed into Blaine and pinned him to the floor. He knew that voice anywhere.

Stacy Hummel.

Stacy had been his own personal pest to him since senior year began. She followed him everywhere. Well, not everywhere. The boy's restroom became a sanctuary for him. It always gave him a few moments to clear his head before she would follow him again.

Stacy didn't actually know him that well. Blaine had met her in his art class, and Stacy became obsessed with him the moment Blaine decided to help her with her painting. Blaine really wanted to scream to her that he was gay, but he also didn't really want to embarrass Stacy about knowing her crush on him.

Blaine had also found out another reason for not telling her his sexuality. Stacy couldn't keep her mouth shut. Sometime in early September, he had tried to evade her by telling her to leave him alone because he was fixing a problem, and then, spotting a bathroom, had slipped inside. Blaine later found out Stacy blabbed about him taking care of a hard on in the bathroom to the school. People were mocking him the entire week. If Blaine told her that he was gay, the whole school would know within days, and he really didn't need that on his list of problems.

Blaine also felt their relationship would be entirely inappropriate considering their age difference. He was eighteen! Stacy was fourteen! Sure she was attractive for a girl, with her thin frame, and light blonde hair, but no. Besides he liked dicks.

Jeff and Tina were both snickering at him.

It had become their inside joke, in glee club when the freshmen would give up.

How the heck did she get on top of him? The girl probably weighed less than a hundred pounds.

"What ?" Blaine asked, scrambling to get her off and dignify himself.

The young girl blushed getting off of him, "I was going to tell you we're paired for an art project."

"What?" Blaine asked again. Since when did they have an art project together?

"Mr. Vander let us choose our partners in class today." Stacy said giving him a shy smile, "Since you missed second period, when we were choosing partners, I decided we should be paired up."

Great. Just what he needed.

"So you'll be at my house after school today ?" Stacy asked, her eyes boring into him with excitement.

"I have glee club, today." Blaine muttered weakly.

"Oh, I can just join you then and we can go to my house after glee club." Stacy said grinning even more, "My Dad says I have a great voice. I'm sure you guys can use more talent anyway."

"We're actually not looking for new members." Blaine began, "We actually have enough-"

"What Blaine means is," Tina interjected, "We will have enough if you make it in, and we will be glad to see you after school."

"That's great." Stacy said, smiling even more if possible. "I'll see you at lunch then, Blainey-bear."

What just happened?

After Blaine was sure Stacy at a far enough distance, he yelled, "What were you thinking ?"

"Blaine," Tina sighed, "You can't just think of yourself. What if she was really good? We might really need her this year."

Blaine knew she was right. They had won nationals last year. It would be hard to live up to the performance they pulled off last year with most of their members gone.

"Besides," Jeff chimed, with a smug grin, "We get to see more Stacy and her Blainey-bear interaction."

"Don't remind me," Blaine grumbled, as Tina and Jeff teased him more.

It had been a long day, and Blaine wasn't really looking forward to the rest. After lunch he had decided to ditch the rest of his classes for the day. It wouldn't effect his grades negatively. The curriculum at McKinley was pretty easy. Blaine knew Stacy had memorized his schedule. He couldn't avoid her forever, but the less Stacy time the better. It was really hard to find a spot to hide besides the men's restroom for lunch. Blaine's friends knew he was avoiding her, so they weren't bothered if he was missing. Blaine had spent that entire hour behind the dumpster.

This really needed to stop.

"Blainey-bear !"

But she would probably be really fragile if he told her the truth….

Stacy latched herself to his arm and smiled, "I didn't see you today at lunch."

"I was busy." Blaine responded trying to avoid eye contact, as they walked to glee club.

Stacy blushed and decided to scoot closer to him as they walked.

Mr. Schue wasn't there yet. All of the members stopped talking unsurprised to see he brought Stacy. Those two rats probably spread the word.

"Hey guys," Blaine said dejectedly, as he entered.

They all held in their laughter as Stacy pulled him into a seat next to her. Blaine stared at the ground wondering if it was possible to die from embarrassment.

"Blainey-bear," Stacy chimed, "Aren't you going to introduce me to your friends ?"

He grumbled a bit before beginning, "This is Artie," he pointed to the brown haired boy with glasses in the wheel chair, who looked like he had tears coming out of his eyes from trying not to laugh.

"Tina," he said pointing, at the asian girl dressed in all black, who had grinned widely at him with amusement.

"Jeff," the blonde haired boy nodded smirking at him, he was probably thinking of more ways to embarrass him.

"Rory," the Irish boy held his mouth shut well and nodded as well but gave him a glance full of laughter.

"Joe," he pointed to the well built boy with dread locks, who gave him a grin as well.

"Sugar," the brown haired petite girl smirked giving Blaine a gaze as if he was inferior to her presence before looking away.

" and Wes." he said pointing at the asian boy, who looked well composed compared to everyone, but Blaine knew Wes enough to know he was actually rolling around laughing inside.

"Meet Stacy Hummel," Blaine said, pointing back to the girl latched to his arm.

"Blainey-bear has told me so much about you guys," Stacy began, "And while I think your group is fantastic. I still think it needs my voice to make it perfect."

The group wasn't taken aback that much by her bluntness. They had Rachel Berry and enough narcissistic members that Stacy paled in comparison to their self-assurance. But it still didn't mean they were any less annoyed at her.

"Hey guys," Mr. Schue said finally joining them. He glanced towards him with a grin. "Brought in a new friend, Blaine?"

"Hello," Stacy began, "I'm here to audition. My name's Stacy Hummel."

"Okay, why don't you get started now," Mr. Schue said, as he began shuffling his chair out of the way, "And you can tell Brad over there, what song your doing."

"I will be performing Today Was A Fairytale by Taylor Swift" Stacy said to them, and then glanced to Blaine tried to keep his eyes glued to the wall.

"Show us what you got Stacy." Mr. Schue said, sitting next to the them.

"Today was a fairytale," Stacy began, "you were the prince," Blaine and everyone else noticed she glanced at him. "I used to be a damsel in distress, you took me by the hand, and you picked me up at six. Today was a fairytale."

Stacy had a pretty nice voice. It was no Rachel Berry, or Mercedes Jones, but it sounded pretty great. The rest of his friends weren't making faces anymore and were actually enjoying themselves as the chorus arrived.

"Time slows down whenever your around," Stacy sang eyes still looking directly at him, and Blaine sent her an uneasy smile. Her expression glowed and Stacy's continued until the last words lowering her voice as the ending part came and sang, "Today was a fairytale."

"That was pretty good." Mr. Schue complimented clapping along with the others. "Welcome to New Directions."

Stacy smiled and looked even happier than before and latched herself next to him. "Aren't you happy we get to spend more time together, Blainey-bear?" she exclaimed brightly.

"Right…" Blaine muttered weakly.

"Blainey-bear," Stacy shrieked, as Blaine was trying to escape after glee club was over. "We have to go to my house silly."

Jeff and Wes sent him exaggerated winks and made faces, which he ignored.

Blaine groaned mentally, but gave her a small smile and followed her.

"I'm so happy I get to be in glee club with you." Stacy was rambling merrily as they made their way outside into the parking lot.

"Yeah." Blaine agreed with force cheer, "And your voice is pretty awesome."

"We can finally-" she began to say, but her phone vibrated and she pulled out her pink cell from her pocket.

"Daddy just texted me, he's picking me up," she said shyly, as if he didn't keep in mind their age difference, "I don't really drive yet."

Blaine gave her a shrug, as a sleek black Navigator van pulled up. Wow. That was a pretty nice car.

She motioned for him to get in before hopping into the back. He reluctantly pulled open the passenger seat door and slid in. "Hey Daddy, this is Blaine Anderson," Stacy introduced from the backseat. "He's working with me on our art project."

Blaine glanced at her father before doing a double-take. Her father looked extremely young, with soft chestnut brown hair, and very fair skin. The man was wearing skin tight clothing that didn't leave much room for imagination to his body underneath it. His eyes flicker over to Blaine, and he noticed that they're an intense mixture of blue, green, and grey. Blaine felt his dick harden as he in took Stacy's dad's appearance.

"Nice to meet you, Blaine" the young man greeted, and Blaine noticed his voice sounded angelic. "I'm Kurt. Stacy's dad."

Holy crap! Stacy's dad was freaking hot!
