Kurt arrived to his first class late, but he was glad to find out that his teacher wasn't there yet. The first lesson was history, Kurt's favourite class, and since it was the start of a new term, it meant that there would be another group project which would make up on of their final grade. Kurt sat down beside his best friend Mercedes Jones and, the now less aggravating, Rachel Berry. They were in the middle of talking about one of Rachel's many boy problems, so Kurt took his time to get out his books for the lesson ahead.
Before Rachel could ask for his input into the newest thing that Finn had done, Mr Grisham walked into the room. He was an old man who was tall and held his head high, he spoke with that instantly captivated the attention of the room and was, by far, one of Kurt's favourite teachers.
"Welcome back!" He started as he looked around the room, "We have a lot to plan today but first lets welcome our new student, Blaine Anderson. Why don't you come up here Blaine and tell us a little about yourself?"
When he was finished, A student got up out of the chair at the front to present himself. Kurt stared at him shocked, he couldn't believe that boy who had helped him in the hallway was here. He kept his eyes on him as Blaine took in all of the faces that were in the room and, when he saw Kurt sitting at the back of the room, smiled faintly and began to speak.
"Hi, I'm Blaine and I just moved here from Westerville with my brother," He told the class nervously. He looked at Mr Grisham to see if he could be relieved from this situation and, when Mr Grisham nodded as an okay, he shuffled quietly back to his seat at the front.
As soon as Blaine had disappeared back to his seat, Mr Grisham took to the floor, "Now since it's a new year, You will be split into groups where you will write an essay on," when he finished saying that, Mr Grisham turn around to the board and wrote up the title of the new topic, after he was finished witting he moved from the board so the students could read it:
Serial Killers of the 20th century.
Blaine felt his breath hitch as he stared at the topic written on the board. He looked at the work Killer and start thinking about the results of someone finding out about the family business, most of the consequences he could think of ended in a brutal way. Blaine sighed as he squeezed his eyes shut to get rid of the thoughts and only opened them again when he heard Mr Grisham order the class to get into pairs.
Kurt looked to where Blaine was sitting, noticing that he hadn't move since Mr Grisham had called for the class to get into groups of twos. He looked at Mercedes and Rachel, who were in a discussion about the newest gossip from the Glee Club, and sighed as he got up out of his seat and walked to where Blaine was sitting. When he got to the front desk, he put his hand on Blaine should who jumped in surprise. "Hey, mind if I join you?" Kurt asked with a nervous smile. He noticed that Blaine was in the middle of a day-dream so he slid into the seat beside him and waited for the boy to say something.
"Oh hey Kurt!" Blaine replied with a bright smile as he snapped out of his train of thought. He turn round in his seat so he was fully facing him. "What's up?" he asked wondering why he had come down to Blaine's table when his actual friends were sitting at the back.
"I was just wondering if you would like to be partners with me? I mean, Rachel and Mercedes are fun but all they talk about are relationship problems and if I have to hear any more of Rachel's plans to win back Finn, I will scream." Kurt rambled on as he freaked out in his mind and when he saw Blaine pause before his answer, he knew that he was going to have to work alone again.
Blaine looked at Kurt while the message sank in; Sure, he would enjoy working with Kurt but could he keep him from figuring out his secrets? Blaines mind flashed back to that first night, the blood that stain both his hands and his conscience was freaking out into his mind. What if, one night, he went out with Cooper on a targeting mission only to find out that it was Kurt they were targeting? He mentally slapped himself, Why are you thinking like this? It's just a project.
Blaine snapped out of his own thoughts again when he saw Kurt's smile falter, "Of course I'll be your partner!" He responded reassuringly. They both got out their notebooks and began to write some plans for the essay.
The bell that sounded the end of the first period rang and everyone began to pack up their books to head off to their next classes. "You have three weeks to complete your assignments, Good luck!" Mr Grisham shouted over the scraping of chairs as everyone rushed to get to the second class of the day.
Before Kurt could get absorbed back into the latest gossip from the glee club, he turned round to face Blaine, "Do you want to meet up sometime after school? WE could go to the Lima Bean and get coffee while we work?"
"Sure, I would love to get coffee with you. " Blaine replied with a smile. When they both exchanged numbers they went to their separate classes.
