Nobody Loves Me Like You Do

Chapter 27: Movie Night

I unpack in my room with songs blasting out of my speaker. I unfold every piece of clothing with a great amount of caution and put them away. All of my posters and pictures are displayed across my room as they were before Dalton, my bed is made perfectly, and the floors are clear of all clutter. I am finally home again. Tomorrow will be the first day back at school and I am very excited, as well as nervous, but mostly excited. I already have the perfect outfit picked out. All of the glee girls are going to come over later for a sleepover. They still don't know about the breakup.

"Kurt?!" Finn shouts from the doorway.

I jump and pause the music, "What the hell Finn?!"

"Turn your music down! The whole freaking neighborhood can hear it, not everyone likes show tunes," he scoffs.

I smile sheepishly, "Sorry."

After my breakdown at home when I found out about Blaine and Sebastian he has been acting as nothing happened. It's a nice refresher compared to all the pitying looks and messages. It also helps take my mind off of the fact that Blaine won't stop texting me. Endless apologies and hopes of meeting up to explain flood my phone to the point that I've considered blocking him. I just can't bring myself to do it.

I put away the final sweater and make my way upstairs. Dad and Finn are on the couch watching football. I sit awkwardly on the edge of the couch next to Finn and try to watch the game. Every time they yell I jump a tiny bit from the sudden noise. The doorbell rings, saving me from watching any more of the gruesome sport.

"Hey!" I open the door enthusiastically letting everyone in the house. "How are you all?"

I hug them all, giving them a kiss on the cheek. Rachel places a freshly baked tray of brownies on the coffee table, "Good! How are you? You said you had some news for us? Good or bad?"

I glance at my dad and Finn nervously, "How about we go downstairs and I'll explain then."

They follow me down into my room/living area. We gather in a circle on the floor with many different foods in the middle. Before anyone came over I made sure to order pizza and bring chips downstairs.

"So, what's so important that you had to drive a half-hour to tell us?" Mercedes asks.

"I-uh, well Blaine and I broke up," I state simply. "And I am moving back to McKinley!"

The girls stare at me silently. A few seconds pass by and all of them burst into questions, yelling, apologies, everything. I sit watching them all freak out until they calm down. After a couple of minutes, they stop yelling and stare at me once again waiting for an explanation.

"Are you okay?" is the first thing Tina asks.

I shrug, "I'll get over it. Get over him."

Mercedes pulls me into a tight hug, "Do you want to talk about what happened?"

"Maybe a bit later, I'm not sure I want to break down quite yet," I laugh dryly.

"Alright. You said you are moving back to McKinley?" Santana asks.

"Yes, that is correct," I nod. "I'm going to be back at school with you guys again!"

Surprisingly Santana is the first one to launch herself at me, she wraps her arms around my neck causing me to fall back onto the floor. Everyone else piles on crushing me. I laugh as tears spring to my eyes, I couldn't be happier to be going back home. They all climb off of me with happy tears and joy vibrating off of them.

"Alright, so, you all need to fill me in with everything that is going on at McKinley," I giggle.

Tina's face lights up and she clasps her hands together in excitement, "You have missed so much! Buckle up Kurtsy boo. So, David Karofsky ended up coming out, it was weird because most everyone was totally fine with it. Which sucks because there is such a double standard there. I mean just because he is a football player nobody seems to care. Which again doesn't make sense because you were on the football team for a while. Sam and Mercedes finally confessed to each other and are dating-"

"I'm sorry what?! You got a cute boyfriend and didn't tell me?" I scold. "You know what, we will circle back to this. Continue please."

"Okie! Well, Mike and I are dating which is cool, Finn and Rach are still together, Quinn and Puck's relationship is still tbd. Let's see what else? Oh! Mr. Schue and Ms. Pillsbury are totally in love but I guess you already knew that. Sue dated Rod Remmington for a hot second, then he broke her heart and she became evil again. Sue has turned Becky into an evil little version of her, but honestly, it's kind of adorable, that is until the insults start. Aaaaand I think that's all I can think of for the time being," she sits back onto her heels clearly pleased with herself.

"That... that is a lot of information. Give me a second to process real quick."

Brittany has a confused look on her face, "Wait, Mr. Schue and Ms. Pillsbury aren't together?"

"No, but they are clearly undressing one another with their eyes every time they look at each other," Santana smirks.

Mercedes gasps, "Santana! Do not talk about our teachers like that, it's really gross and weird."

"Okay okay, so. Let me see if I got this right, Finn and Rachel together. Mercedes and Sam together, Mike and Tina together. Quinn and Puck tbd, Sue and Rod exes, Mr. Shue and Ms. Pillsubury eye-fucking. Correct?" I ask.

They all nod. Rachel speaks up, "Yup, sounds about right."

"Wow," I sigh. "So, 'Cedes. How did this happen? When did this happen? Have you two kissed yet? Is he a good kisser? He seems like a good kisser! How was your first date? Did he pick you up? Where did you guys go? Did he bring you flowers?"

"Kurt! Shut up! Basically, we had a solid flirtationship for a while. I ended up confessing while singing '18' by One Direction. It happened less than a week ago. We did kiss, he is a good kisser, we did go on a date at Breadsticks, he did pick me up, and he did bring me flowers," Mercedes explains.

I smile giddily, "God I missed you all and the drama."

For the rest of the night, we gossip, watch rom-coms, eat junk food, everything is perfect. Then we get to 'When Harry Met Sally' there is a stabbing pain in my chest. I can feel my heartbeat speed up and my eyes prick with tears. I clear my throat and pause the movie without saying anything. There are complaints and grumbles about me pausing it right before the two of them meet. I excuse myself to the bathroom and sit in the bathtub hugging my knees close to my chest. Someone knocks softly on the door and I raise my head slowly.

"What?"

"Kurt are you alright? Do you want to talk about it?" Rachel asks through the door.

"No."

She sighs on the other side, "Okay, well if you need anything just text me. I think we are going to head out, it's getting sort of late."

"Bye."

"Do you want one of us to stay with you?"

"No."

Yikes, this one was a bit rough, I might go back and rewrite it. Sorry I haven't had a lot of inspiration. Love you all!
