It's Complicated
Chapter 2: Their Secrets (Part 1)
Blaine's phone vibrated in his pocket, his hand moving in to fish it out. The caller ID read Finn Hudson.
"Hey Finn..." he began but was instantly interrupted by the others man's alarming tone.
"Is Kurt with you?!" Finn all but shouted through the other end.
"Huh? Yeah he's with me right now wh-" Again he was interrupted by Finn, asking him to go somewhere private and away from Kurt.
Blaine sneaked a glance over to Kurt and saw him starring at him confused. He excused himself as calmly as he could and went into his room, shutting the door behind.
"Okay what is it?" he told the other on the line.
"Its Burt, I...He has cancer, Blaine" Blaine felt his heart sink in his stomach. What. No.
A million questions were running through his mind but only one was able to escape from his mouth. 'Does Kurt know?"
"No" Of course he didn't know. He would have told Blaine if his father had cancer.
"And you can't tell him" Finn added, almost demanding it instead of stating it.
"What. Why the hell not?" Blaine was starting to get angry and the taller boy knew it.
"It would kill him Blaine, you know that! Just, just let me tell him. When he's ready I will." Was his serious? He couldn't be.
"I... I can't do that Finn, I can't keep something like this from him" Blaine heard Finn groan in frustration. He could picture the taller man pacing back and forth with his hands in his hair. Finn shut his eyes and stopped moving in an attempt to calm his tone "Blaine stop" Finn was holding back.
"He needs to know" was all Blaine formed between his gritted teeth.
"No he doesn't!" Finn shouted. "You love him don't you? You want to protect him, right? So let's keep this between me and you or ill tell him...ill tell him everything." Blaine was at a loss of words. Fin was threatening to reveal all his secrets, secrets of his hidden feelings for Kurt.
"You know I do! Don't do this. If Kurt ever found out it could ruin everything!"
"Then I suggest you keep your mouth shut Anderson. He's my baby brother and I will not let you ruin his weekend." Fuck his weekend, his father has fucken cancer! He wanted to shout out loud but stopped himself.
"Please just keep this to yourself... until I can figure out a plan." Finn was now begging. "I know you love him but if you really do then you'd keep him away from the pain." That's all it took for Blaine to give in and accept defeat.
"I love Kurt. I do. More than he'll ever know" and with that he ended the call and slumped down on his bed. This was not going to be easy; having to keep this new found knowledge wasn't what he wanted to do.
Kurt should know the truth, it was his father for christ sake but he had no choice.
Sitting up from his bed, he tucked the phone back in his pocket and made his way back to Kurt. Time for his acting skills to work their magic.
