“Blaine, what’s going on it sounds like there’s a marching band in here?” said Kurt cracking open one eye.

“I don’t know I think someone is at the door” said Blaine quickly standing up when he realised he was lying on top of Kurt. “I’d better go answer it”

“If its Nick and Jeff tell them to bog off” said Kurt falling in to a partial stupor.

“Hello I have an order from target for a Mr Blaine Hummel Anderson” said the small strawberry blonde boy in front of him, Reed, his name tag proclaimed him to be.

Blaine gave the small boy a weak smile.

“Would you be able to tell me what on earth I ordered last night, please” he said with a very apologetic look on his face.

“Oh… errm” said Reed checking his clipboard. “A crate of Malteasers, a bottle of tequila, Jack Daniel’s, vodka and Pimms”

“Ah thank you, it’s coming back to me now” he said handing the boy a tip.

He smiled, wheeled the crate into the dorm room and then left.

“Whazat” asked Kurt as he woke again.

“It’s a crate of Malteasers I ordered for you last night” Blaine said matter-of-factly.

“What when did I want Malteasers” said Kurt sitting up cautiously, careful not to make to sudden a move.

“When we’d drunk near enough the entire contents of the drinks cabinet, and we’d finished watching beauty and the beast.”

“Oh…wait no… I’m staying sat down for now” said Kurt as he attempted to get up.

“Hang on a minute” said Blaine before rushing to the bathroom.

The sound of retching could be heard from the bathroom, Kurt quickly grabbed the half full pitcher of black liquid and followed suit.

“There all bett- no wait”

After about 5 minutes of throwing-up what felt like the entire contents of their stomachs Kurt and Blaine felt much better.

“Malteaser?” said Blaine after he’d finished restocking the drinks cabinet and putting some of the Malteaser packets in cupboards.

“No thanks Blaine” said Kurt holding his head; he rose to walk over to his bag, which was also stuffed with Malteasers, to get some paracetamol for his thumping head ache.

Around midday Blaine drove Kurt to the hospital to visit Morgan.

“Are you sure he won’t mind me being here” asked Blaine for the eighth time, sounding agitated.

“I need you here with me Blaine, I’m sure he won’t mind. He needs me Blaine, but I don’t think I could go in there alone.”

The hospital was white and sterile, it had long winding corridors painted with a dull grey colour, they wondered the halls to find the nurses’ station, when they arrived there Blaine was surprised to see Carole sat at the desk typing up a patients discharge information.

“Hey Carole” Kurt said, something in his voice told Blaine he needed him so Blaine reached out and grasped his hand, gave it a tight squeeze and flashed Kurt a reassuring smile.

“Oh hey, honey, are you okay?” asked Carole.

“Yeah,” Kurt lied, he felt bad lying to Carole, but how could he feel better he could have answered those 19 phone calls, he could have helped, no matter what Blaine told him he could have done something.

“Morgan is in room 139” she said pulling Kurt in to a warm hug. “Are you sure you want to visit?”

“Yes, I need to see that he’s alright…”

“Okay honey, well I’ll just be down the hall if you need me”

Kurt smiled in thanks and began to walk down the corridor to Morgan’s room. When they arrived Kurt saw a small group gathered outside the room, there was a smallish blonde girl hugging a taller Jet black haired male. A slightly taller girl, with brown hair highlighted with tones of red where the light hit, stood clasping a darker haired girl’s hand. Finally there was Morgan’s mom, a short, kind looking woman with spiky red hair she was wearing her favourite deep purple cardigan and a lighter purple high waisted skirt, she looked a bit like a Ribena berry.

“Oh hi, Kurt” said Kylie, sounding pleased to see him. “Morgan is just getting checked out”

“Hello Mrs Houston, how is he doing?” asked Kurt.

“He’s better, I really should have-have-” she started, but tears started to form in her eyes so she fled to the bathroom.

“Hi” said the blonde haired girl. “I’m Sophie; this is my boyfriend Joey, my twin Emily and her girlfriend Meredith.”

“How do you know Morgan?” asked Emily, eyes shining with tears.

“Oh, we used to be friends… we met in French class.” said Kurt supressing the memories, he couldn’t get angry, not now, not anymore, not after everything.

“Oh so you’re the boy he raved on about to us in his e-mails” said Sophie smiling.

“I guess” said Kurt “I don’t mean to sound rude, but how come I’ve never met you before, you can’t possibly be more than the year above us”

“Well, a while ago… when I came out” started Emily, gazing up at her girlfriend. “Dad kicked me out too.”

“I said that if he kicked Emily out I’d leave, I wasn’t about to lose my sister. He said it was fine and that if I was going support Emily in her ‘Abnormality’ then he didn’t want anything to do with me either” said Sophie

“So, we left.” finished Emily “moved to Chicago and never looked back”

“Oh, I’m sorry-”

“Don’t be silly, it was the best thing that ever happened to us” smiled Emily “and you were there for Morgan when we left, Thanks for that.”

“I didn’t even know you’d left…”

“Never mind, the fact is you helped him understand that he needs to be himself and not be scared of what dad or the world thinks of you, it doesn’t matter. The big question is though who’s this?” asked Sophie gesturing towards Blaine.

Oh shit Blaine, Kurt had completely forgotten about him, since been assaulted my memories of his time with Morgan.

“This is Blaine, my… err…” Kurt didn’t know what to say, was it appropriate for him to bring his boyfriend to see his sort of ex?

“Friend” Blaine stated, Kurt mouthed thank you. “I knew he was coming here, he’s rather shaken up about it… I didn’t think he should be driving”

“That’s nice of you” said Joey with a knowing smile.

The doctor left Morgan’s room at point. The group of them looked at her expectantly.

“He’s fine, we’re going to leave him on watch until Tuesday afternoon, he can return home then.”

“Thank you” said Sophie.

They all entered the room, Morgan scanned all of their faces smiling a smile that didn’t reach his eyes, Kurt knew that smile he seen him use it many a time even Kurt himself had used that smile, no-one else seemed to notice. When Morgan’s eyes settled on Kurt there was a slight glimmer.

“Emsy, Soph, what are you doing here?” he asked incredulously.

“We’re here to see you of course! You buffoon why didn’t you call us or e-mail us we’d have been over in a heartbeat.” said Emily playfully hitting his shoulder, but sadness still showing in her reddened eyes.

Kurt felt a pang of guilt at this he hadn’t phoned his sisters he’d phoned him

“Dad never gave me your number and he kept my laptop.” said Morgan eyes flooding with tears

Emily and Sophie gave Morgan a big hug. The two girls sobbing in to his chest, they hadn’t seen each other in years.

“Hey, would you guys mind giving me a moment alone with Kurt.”

“Sure” Emily said as she herded everyone out.

“Morgan? Would you mind if Blaine stayed?” asked Kurt tentatively. “It’s just we have something for you”

Morgan looked at Emily, she shrugged. Indicating she had no idea what was going on.

“Alright” he said slowly.

“First of all Morgan, I’m glad you’re still alive” said Kurt taking a deep, steadying breath. “I’m really sorry I didn’t answer those phone calls”

“Why would you after everything I did, I’m sorry about that Kurt I really am”

“Morgan!” Kurt snapped, tears rolling down his cheeks “no matter what has happened between us I’ll always be here for you always. I know how hard it was for you in your old school”

“Thank-you” said Morgan tears forming in his eyes, but he rebuffed them.
