Group therapy wasn’t all that bad.
In fact it was kind of like their everyday conversations only a little more detailed.
“Doctor Jessica, you know how you talked to me about different ways of coping and I said I used to use music?” Kurt began.
“Yes, I do recall.” She said simply.
“I heard there will be a music group coming and performing downstairs. Have you heard anything about it?” Kurt asked.
Holden just smiled, he knew what Kurt was up to.
“Yes, the Dalton Academy Warblers are coming to perform on Tuesday. Why do you ask?”
“Can we go see them!?!” Bethany chimed in.
“I was just wondering because maybe we could go listen in.” Kurt said shyly.
“I think that would be a great idea. Music would be a great therapy for all of you. I’ll have to check with supervisors to see if you all are clear to go down there, but I don’t see why not.” Doctor Jessica smiled.
“Yesss!!!!” Bethany cheered.
“Thank you.” Kurt responded.
“No problem.”
“ So are there anymore questions?” Doctor Jessica asked.
They still had a half an hour left of group therapy.
So far Kim talked about what she experienced yesterday when she was having an episode, as she called it.
Bethany raved about how she hasn’t thrown up in so long, and that she’s gained two pounds.
They also explained a little about each of their triggers. Or what initially started their mental problems.
Bethany talked about some bitch at her modeling agency who called her fat.
Holden talked in detail about the murder of his family that he witnesses.
And Kim, well Kim wasn’t exactly sure what provoked her schizophrenia.
“So Kurt, you said you were raped. Who was it?” Bethany asked.
Okay well that was really personal, and very uncomfortable.
“Was it Blake?” Holden asked.
Okay no, that was not okay.
“Is Blake your boyfriend?” Kim asked.
“Oh my God! Kurt! Did your boyfriend rape you?” Bethany asked.
Okay it was time for this to stop. Too far. Too far. Way too far.
“No.” Kurt said angrily. “First off its BLAINE, and no. Blaine would never do something like that. He is the most loving most caring person I have ever met. No he would never do something like that. And I’m a little offended that you asked that. I get its group therapy but who just comes out and asks a question like that? And who would ask if it was my boyfriend? Oh god. No it wasn’t my fucking boyfriend, it was a psychopath that went to my school. He’s bullied me since freshman year, when I finally had the courage to stand up for myself he kissed me out of nowhere, he threatened to kill me if I told anyone, and that’s when my depression took a toll for the worse. Sure Blaine, the every loving boyfriend, was there to comfort me. But I was so scared. I began cutting and I stopped eating. My friends found out about the cutting so I told them why. He found out I told and he carried out his threat. He beat me, and stabbed me, and slit my throat, he rapped me and left me on the ground to die. My boyfriend and stepbrother found me unconscious on the floor, I was in the hospital for a week before I woke up. And Blaine stayed by my side the entire time. When I woke up, I was so scared that Blaine would leave me because I was tainted. So I tried to kill myself. I overdosed on medicine and my organs began to shut down. So you know Blaine did, he gave me one of his fucking organs. Okay? He is the greatest person in the world and the fact that you guys would ask me if he rapped me. I just can’t believe it. He is so amazing and he loves me. He would never do that to me. He is so caring and loving. He’s the reason I’m in here. He is the only reason I’m getting help.” Kurt said pacing around the room getting overwhelmed.
“Kurt, I’m so sorry I was so blunt. We already know everything that happened to each other so I figured I’d ask you. I didn’t mean it to be so invasive.” Bethany said pulling Kurt into a hug.
“It’s okay Bethany.” Kurt sighed.
“Holden! Apologize for assuming it was Blaine!” Bethany yelled thumping Holden upside the head.
“Sorry Kurt.” He mumbled.
“Yeah Kurt, I’m sorry I thought it could be your boyfriend. He sounds great. I just didn’t know.” Kim added.
“It’s okay guys.” Kurt shrugged.
Group therapy was just about over and Kurt stood up to leave.
“Kurt, where are you going?” Bethany asked concerned.
“Back to my room, I think I need to be alone.” Kurt sighed.
“Kurt, please. We’re sorry.” Bethany started.
“No, it’s fine. I just need a little alone time to cool off.” Kurt explained.
“Kurt, I’m not so sure if that’s a good idea.” Doctor Jessica cut in.
Of course now she chose to intervene, what about earlier when his boyfriend was being accused of rape?
“It’s fine. I’m not going to do anything dangerous. Maybe I’ll find a way of coping with when I feel depressed.” Kurt shrugged.
“Okay, that’s a good idea.” She smiled.
“Do you think I could get into the physical rehabilitation unit. I think I’m going to run on the treadmill.” Kurt said simply.
“Okay, I’ll get a nurse from down there to supervise.”
“Thank you.”
Now Kurt was headed downstairs. He always did enjoy running. It made him feel like he could just run away from his problems.
And right now, that’s what he needed.
At least it would be a productive way to blow off steam.
He was very upset and if he could just put that into his running he’d be able to relax.
And right now, calming down and relaxing is what he needs.

OMG I loved this chapter. T_T I feel so bad for Kurt and I can't believe Holden would open his big mouth and say such a thing XD I'm surprised Kurt didn't completely blow up and have a panic attack
