“She was right behind us when we left homeroom,” supplied Tina applying lip-gloss; she was a short, Asian girl, with long, beautiful, jet black hair pulled back into a tight ponytail.

“But then she said something about leaving the assignment in her locker and went to get it…” said Mercedes, a black girl with dark brown hair, she wasn’t the stereotypical thin cheerio, but she was on vocals, she was an amazing singer.

“Oh will she just hurry up, I need to talk to her,” Kurt paused. “I think Chandler wants to end it…” he said, showing his phone to his two best friends who were sitting in front of him.

Hey, We need to talk :/

“What does it mean…? I thought everything was going so well between us, I mean we’re happy…” said Kurt, he was starting to panic.

“I wouldn’t worry too much Kurt, I’m sure it’s not as bad as you think,” said Tina

“Yeah, relax, I’m sure it’s nothing, you’ll just talk to him tonight, after the pep rally. You know how stress affects your cartwheels and handsprings,” said Mercedes.

“Thank you guys… Yeah I have nothing to worry about… You guys help keep me sane,” said Kurt with a smile.

Then Mrs. Brown started the lesson, she was covering the exam content. Kurt glanced around the room. ‘Where’s Blaine? ‘he thought. It was unusual for Blaine to miss a class… Blaine loved English.

People would think that because Blaine was nerdy, small, and unpopular Kurt wouldn’t even acknowledge his presence, but it was the exact opposite - Kurt always noticed Blaine. Blaine reminded Kurt of how he used to be, before all this happened, before he joined the Cheerios, before he became the Queen Bee… He used to be like Blaine: daily slushies, taunts… until he joined the Cheerios.

Kurt sat there daydreaming about Blaine, he thought about Blaine eyes, they were so… so… beautiful… They took Kurt’s breath away. He loved the way his eyes lit up with pure joy when he was talking to his best friend Jermaine. That was a stab in the gut for Kurt… He could tell that Blaine liked Jermaine, Jermaine liked him too. Kurt loved Chandler, he did, and dating Chandler was far better for his popularity. Kurt was being stupid having a crush on Blaine. Like Blaine would want anything to do with him… Kurt was on top, most people who were on top were assholes. Kurt was a different breed of popular, he knew what it was like to be at the bottom, and it sucked, so when he became head cheerleader he decided he was going to make a difference.

“Speak to me after class Mr Hummel,” said Mrs Brown handing Kurt back the latest assignment, there was a big red F in the corner of the paper.

This was great news he had a reason to get closer to Blaine… Kurt really wanted to get to know the kid; he knew he was on the tutoring scheme… Kurt knew almost everything about Blaine, being popular had its perks… He knew that Blaine and Jermaine had transferred together… He knew that Blaine lived with his dad… Kurt knew that his dad hated him… He knew many things about Blaine.

“Oh, Kurt what are you going to do, if you fail English Coach Sue will kick you off the Cheerios,” said Mercedes sounding concerned.

“Oh, don’t worry about that… I know the perfect tutor,” he said smiling mischievously.

Just then the door opened and Blaine and Rachel walked in…
