Kurt was grateful for the school day to be over as he walked towards his Escalade. As he unlocked the car he noticed a small red sports car rush into the parking lot, almost running over a pack of freshman as they walked towards their busses. The red car sped into an open spot near the front of the school. A short women with curly brown hair got out of the car. She was wearing a three piece suit and was talking into a cell phone. “Yes, I know there is a meeting at four. I will be back. Blaine had yet another incident and I was called to the school….I know I am fed up as well…ok I will be back for the meeting…thank you…goodbye.” The short women hung up the phone and sighed as she rang the buzzer located at the front doors of the high school. Kurt heard the familiar click of the doors and watched the woman who was apparently Blaine’s mother walk into McKinley. Kurt curiosity got the best of him and instead of leaving the parking lot he slid into his car and waiting for Blaine and his mother to emerge from the school.

Mrs. Anderson walked briskly down the hallway towards Principle Figgins’s office. She entered the small office ignoring the greeting from the secretary and heading straight into the small room where Figgins sat with a despondent Blaine. Figgins looked up at the small but intimidating women and let out a terse smile. “Good afternoon Mrs. Anderson. Would you care to sit down?”

“No thank-you Principal Friggans, I am in a hurry. So if we could please speed this little meeting along I have a work engagement.” Mrs. Anderson said coolly.

Figgins shifted in his chair uncomfortably. “Well Mrs. Anderson, today we had a little incident with Blaine. Unfortunately he is becoming more aggressive and hostile towards the teachers and students. And I am no longer sure that McKinley is the best place for Mr. Anderson.”
“Principal Figgins, are you saying that my son can no longer attend this school.” Mrs. Anderson said as she threw a disgusted look towards Blaine who shrunk beneath her gaze.

“No, of course not Mrs. Anderson. I just think we should look into some alternatives that might better serve Blaine and his condition.” Figgins replied offering a small smile towards Blaine.

“Well, Mr. Figgins I appreciate your concern. I assure you Blaine’s father and I will discuss the matter this evening, I can also assure that Blaine will be better behaved in the future. Now if you excuse us I must return to work. Let’s go Blaine.” Mrs. Anderson said as she turned quickly and left the office. Blaine stood up mechanically and walked out behind his mother. The pair didn’t say a word until they were out of the building.

Kurt’s head perked up as he saw Blaine and his mother walk towards the red sports car. Kurt watched as the small woman turned towards Blaine. “How dare you do this again? I had to miss a meeting and now I will probably be late for my afternoon meeting!” His mother seemed to tower over Blaine as he visibly shrunk beneath the venomous words. “I am sick and tired of your antics Blaine! I don’t know what is wrong with you but you can be sure that your father will want to have a word with you when you get home.” The women huffed as she checked her watch and opened the car door. “I have to get to work; you will have to walk home. Maybe it will help cool you down.” And with that the car spurred to life and Blaine’s mother sped off leaving the boy standing alone in the parking lot. Kurt saw as the boy sunk to the ground landing hard on the curb and put his head in his hands. Kurt’s hear broke as he quickly got out of his car and walked towards Blaine.

“Hey there, you ok?” Kurt said as he approached Blaine. The small boy jumped up quickly.

“I’m fine. I have to go.” Blaine said as he began to walk away from Kurt.
Kurt bit his lip as he thought about the repercussions that his next question might bring but knew he had to do it. “Are you walking home?”

“Ya, what’s it to you?” Blaine said not bothering to turn around.

“Well, I have a car. I can give you a ride home if you would like.”
Blaine turned around slowly. “It’s your choice. I am fine with walking.”

“It’s really no problem, come on I am the Escalade over there. I am Kurt by the way.”

“I know your fucking name, I met you earlier. And despite being in special ed I am not retarded.” Blaine spat.

Kurt mentally slapped himself, “Oh, I am sorry, its just I am bad at names so I thought it…never mind lets just go.” Kurt unlocked his car and the two boys got into the car. “What’s your address?” He said pulling out his GPS.
“4923 Walton Circle.”

Kurt raised an eyebrow as he keyed in the address, everybody new that Walton Circle was in the gated communities of Lima. He never would have thought that Blaine was rich. He was also surprised that Blaine’s mother was going to make him walk home Walton Circle was a good fifteen minute drive from the high school, Kurt couldn’t imagine how long it would take to walk there.
As the GPS cued up the directions Kurt pulled out his IPod. “Would you like to pick out the music?” He said offering the small device towards Blaine. The boy looked up with surprise.

“Umm, ya I guess.” He said taking the IPod. Kurt pulled out the parking lot as Blaine began to shuffle through Kurt’s extensive music list. He finally found the artist he was looking for and pushed play. The sounds of P!NK came through the speakers. Kurt smiled at playing approving of his choice.

“You are a P!NK fan as well?” Kurt said as he turned onto the main road.“Yep.” Blaine replied. “I love her song Perfect. It’s such a great anthem. I am thinking about singing it in Glee club at some point.” Kurt said trying to avoid awkward silence. “Perfect is a great song.” Blaine said quietly.

Kurt knew he wasn’t going to get much more out of Blaine so the rest of the ride was spent in silence aside from Kurt humming along to the music. Fifteen minutes later the Escalade pulled up to a large house with a wrote iron gate protecting its driveway.

Blaine quickly unbuckled and jumped out of the car. “Thanks for the ride.” He said hastily as he shut the door. Kurt watched as Blaine walked over the key pad and punched in a few numbers the gates slowly began to open and Blaine snuck inside not once looking back at the car.
Kurt sighed as Blaine entered the mansion and began to pull out of the driveway. Kurt was still worried about having to peer tutor Blaine but at least his encounter this afternoon gave him hope that he could do this.
