After our morning coffee I had a few hours to kill before seeing Dale which I decided to use doing some online window shopping... Ok so I bought two new pairs of pants, a pair of brogues and a pashmina...what they were essential! That was where I was sitting when I saw the chat log, honestly I have never wanted to kill Santana more. Why I was surprised I have no idea.

Santana: guess who had a very steamy shower last night......

Brittany: I did but only so I could write a message to myself on the glass!

Sam: this could only get better if it was a lesbian three way *died*

Artie: who?

*******************

"For the millionth time I'm sorry...."

"For the millionth time I don't care!" I was nudged out the way by a jock on his way to class as me and Santana stood glaring at each other in the hallway. Blaine was standing with his head inside his locker pretending not to listen.

"Look the way I see it you should be thanking me! Now everyone knows what a-"

"Thanking you for telling all our friends AND my brother that I got a blow job in the shower?" I hiss as quiet as I can but several people look over.

"Ok so maybe I shouldn't have told EVERYONE but I was just happy for you..," she gave me a very big pout and I tried my hardest to stay mad but it was hard.

"Just don't do it again!" I sighed as she hugged me fiercely to her chest.

"Damn I have seen far too much of you two pressed against each other this weekend..." Cooper had appeared and was leaning on my locker with a huge grin on his face.

"Cooper!" We both smile warmly at him.

"Don't stop on my account... Just here to say bye before I head to the airport." He scooped us all into a bear hug setting us down with a kiss to the forehead. "Now let's go over the ground rules..."

"Nothing good happens after four shots..." Blaine recited.

"Always wipe front to back..." Santana sung happily as we all cringed.

"Always wear protective clothing..." I blushed as he winked at me.

"Very good! And most importantly......" He paused giggling.

"Friendships are built on inappropriateness and shenanigans!!" We all scream in unison laughing at his mock cry.

"My babies are all grown up!" He wails punching Blaine softly on the shoulder. "Ok B! Make sure Seb treats you right or so help me..."

"I got it coop! I'm gonna miss you!" Blaine hugged him tight.

"You to squirt!" He moved on to Santana "You little lady take care of the boys... You sure you're not straight?"

"Not for a decrepit like you twinkle toes..." She frowned but kissed him on the lips anyway.

"You wound me!" He pretended to stab his heart turning his gaze on to me. "I'm going to miss you most of all scarecrow!"

"You're such a dork!" I moan squeezing him tight to me. "But I love you anyway..." I whisper in his ear.

"Good! Cause I love you too! We will talk soon Kay?" I nod softly trying to hold back the tears I feel threatening my eyes. "Right I have to go... Love you all" he quickly turns to leave strutting up the hall shaking his denim covered ass.

"Still a no!" Santana yells as he turns to blow her a kiss.

"You love it really!!" And with that he's gone and we are left holding hands staring at the door.

"Ok! Time for glee!" Santana sniffs setting us off on a quick pace through the halls.

"I love you guys you know!" Blaine whimpers and I lean over to pat his back.

"Come on! None of us are dying and you know that oldie will be back bugging us before we know it! So let's just get our heads down! Christmas is only a few weeks away!" And that's how we muster up the strength to get on with it, it wasn't goodbye just a see you soon.

*********************

When I got home I was exhausted the weekend had well and truly caught up with me. I was lounging around on my bed flicking absentmindedly through last week's vogue when my phone rang beside me and I picked it up without glancing at the screen.

"Hello?"

"Kurt?"

"What is it cooper?"

"Man! Don't sound too happy...."

"Sorry but it's been a long day! Plus you just left...." I point out

"I know but I just wanted to see if you were ok?"

"Why wouldn't I be ok?"

"Just because of what I said on Saturday...."

"Oh! Um yeah I'm fine!" I squeak out.

"Cause I was just speaking my mind which you know as well as me isn't that clever!" I can't help but giggle at that.

"Cooper its fine don't worry about it..."

"The thing is though....it looked like you were going to say something before dale came out..." Oh shit he did remember. I can't answer my tongue is currently glued to the roof of my mouth. "Then I got to thinking there's only one reason you wouldn't want to finish in front of Dale...." No, no, no, no, no!!!

"Cooper you don't know what you're talking about!" I argue weakly.

"Really? Because I think that you feel exactly like I think you do!"

"I love DALE, cooper!" I can feel the blood bubbling inside my ears.

"Doesn't mean anything really though does it? People love two people at the same time...."

"I don't!" I fume now how dare he try to tell me what I feel after a couple of days here, I'm not that transparent.... I don't think.

"Really? Cause that's not what I think Scarecrow!"

"Don't call me that coop!" I moan "Blaine's my best friend that's it! You said you liked Dale and Seb... What's this really about?"

"I do like Dale, it's just I heard Seb... No doesn't matter...." He paused for a minute and I knew he thought he had said too much but had no way to back out. "I just wouldn't want him to go and then you realise you should have said something..."

"It's not like I'm not going to see him again Coop.... He's not away for that long!" Internally dreading the fact that I'll be without a best friend for a week over Christmas break.

"Kurt two months is a long time and then other states might pick up tour dates-"

"Two months? Cooper what are you talking about??" I must have heard that wrong surely...

"The tour....hold on he didn't tell you?"

"That they are doing a few dates before Christmas but that's just for a week" I stop when I hear a mumbled swear word come from coopers end. "Hold on!"

"Kurt...I"

"Are you trying to tell me he's going away for-for two months?"

"Erm..."

"Cooper Mitchell Anderson! Is he going on tour for two months!?!"

"Yes but-"

"I'll talk to you later!"

"Kurt please..." But I don't hear the end of that sentence as I drop the phone on to my bed and storm out to my car.

******************

"Tell me it's not true!" I slam the door open to reveal a shocked Blaine curled up on his bed.

"What's not true?" He sits up straight following as I pace back and forward, clenching and unclenching my fists.

"That you're going on tour for two fucking months and didn't tell me!" I scream at him.

"Kurt it's not like that..." He tried to grab me as I walked past but I pulled away and stood frozen in place my arms firmly planted by my side.

"Like what B? Running off without telling us.... Abandoning the group before regionals, missing Christmas and a big chunk of our senior year? Because let me tell you something! That's exactly what it feels like!" I jab my finger at his chest.

"Oww! Don't poke me Kurt!" He pokes me back.

"Well what.do.you.have.to.say??" I poke him after every word for effect causing him to shuffle back towards his bed.

"Oww!! Listen just sit down and stop doing that ok?" I roll my eyes but sit on his computer chair anyway. "Ok so I have been asked to go on tour... BUT I don't know if I should go... I mean I really want toand mum and dad said they'd get a tutor to go with me....But Seb's a bit off just now, I don'treally want to leave him.....I can feel him staring but don't look up at where I know those puppy dog eyes are burning into me. "What do you think?"

"It's two months Bumble we've never been apart that long...EVER!" I mumble quietly still not looking at him.

"I know and I'm scared... But I just think this is a once in a lifetime chance! What if I always regret not doing it?" His voice wavers and my heart breaks a little as his hand reaches out to squeeze mine. "Kurt please look at me....I don't want you mad at me.... I can't bear it!" When my eyes met those honey orbs there was only one thing I could say.

"You should go...." His eyes light up when he hears it come out and my heads screaming nooooo tell him to stay, but I can't I know how much this means to him.

"But what about senior year?" He sniffs eyes welling with tears.

"It will be hear when you get back! Like we will even notice you're gone..." I try to joke but we both only manage a weak chuckle. "Besides it means other people can have the chance of a solo... Plus me and Tan can do lots of shopping without you moaning you've had enough..." I croak out a laugh when his colour drains from his face.

"Tan...." We stare at each other open mouthed."Will you come with me to tell her?"

"Oh hell no! Your decision! I'm not being a body shield for you again... Remember when you stood her up for a Colin Farrell interview! Forks were thrown at me Blaine!" I lean over to hug him tight "just promise you won't forget me when you're famous right?"

"Of course not you're my peachy..." He sighs as if it explains everything. I pry myself away to get up and leave. "Love you..."

"Long time Bumble!" I smile as I leave.

It's funny now thinking back, that this was one of those small decisions that could have made everything turned out differently. But it's easy to say that now it's all happened...
