Secrets

Part 39

If Sebastian really sticks to the plan and actually tells Blaine the truth when they text or call, then it's going very well for him.

It's only two weeks since he decided to change but is already from up to 10 cigarettes a day to 6 which isn't bad for someone who smokes since about 4 years.

Sure Sebastian still has these days where he lays in bed and just can't get up but on all the other days he attends his classes and follows the lesson.

Directly after the begin of the second week Sebastian has one of those phases again where hardly gets out of bed and he tells Blaine about it. His friend understands very well how he feels but promisses to think about a solution.

It's week four and once again Sebastian can't find any motivation to get out of bed so he sends Blaine a text. Shortly after the boy had answered with a little motivation speech. The bad boy smiles at that, takes a deep breath and stands up to get ready for school.

Blaine knows that helping Sebastian takes some of his time but he wants to help the boy get better. The worst part is that he didn't tell Kurt. Kurt still doesn't like Sebastian and Blaine isn't sure if Kurt would would be okay with him helping Sebastian.

But Blaine covers himself up good. He behaves normal and each time he and Sebastian want to talk on the phone in any way he makes up excuses for Kurt. Sometimes he and Sebastian meet on the weekend too and for that Blaine makes up excuses as well.

Helping over the phone is okay but it's easier in person. So the boys meet from one time to another on the weekend. They did that twice already and both times Blaine told Kurt about some activity that he does with his mom on that day.

Kurt is okay with Blaine spending time with Pam on the weekends but the excuses he makes during the week are odd. But he doesn't push Blaine into telling. He trusts his boyfriend. He has bigger problems anyways.

The next exams are coming up at both McKinley and Dalton. For Dalton they're a week earlier and everything is just extremely stressful right now.

Kurt learns together with Finn and Blaine if the curly haired boy has time. After that he calls Nick and Jeff to help them learning too. They're still friends and help each other so Kurt promissed to help them learning for their exams.

But that's not everything. Kurt agreed to learn extra much with Finn when there's time. His brother didn't noticed just how much he was focussed on Glee and Football but his grades got worse.

Depending on how he does on the exams Carol and Burt make him leave at least one Club, if noth both. So Finn asked his brother for help and how could Kurt say no to his brother.

The one thing coming to short now is Rachel. Her boyfriend and her best friend hardly have any time for her and that's why she's mad at the two boys or at least at Finn since he should've noticed that his grades got worse.

Kurt thought that she would come around eventually but that's only until he catches her and Finn fighting in an empty class room in the middle of a school day.

After that Finn comes to Kurt for comfort and help. "She said I shouldn't talk to her until I come to my senses" Finn reports with a sad voice. "Okay" his brother nods "As much as we both love her, now that she doesn't want you to talk to her you can concentrate on studying instead". "I don't know if I can concentrate" Finn whines but the other boy tells "Finn you either concentrate and pass the exams or you fail them and leave Glee and I don't think that you want that or that it would make things between Rachel and you better again". "No!" Finn gives in "We'll study".

"You will study. I promissed Nick and Jeff to help them for the rest of the school week" Kurt corrects. "It's Wednesday!" Finn exclaims in shock and Kurt laughs "I try to find time to help you between but their exams are a week before us so time is running for them even more than for us". Then he hugs his brother and goes to his next class.

On his way he passes Rachel and thought that she'll be mad at him too but instead she waves in his direction with a sad expression on her face.

When Kurt comes home from school he calls his two friends at Dalton. Blaine went home after school since he still 'has to do something'.

Just like usually Kurt explains the tasks to the two other boys and everything else they don't get about the topic. When the boys silently start working on their task and only talk when they have a question again Kurt takes that time to take out his school stuff and learn a bit as well.

Only that today he finds it quite hard to concentrate. Maybe he learned to much in the last time. So he promisses himself to enjoy some free time after helping the boys and before dinner. Sure he told Finn he'd help him if he has some free time but he just feels that he needs a little break.

In the early evening when he's done helping Nick and Jeff, Kurt plays some music from his laptop and sits down on his bed, under the blanket with his fashion book.

Kurt enjoy the time until dinner is ready and goes down with Finn. Both sit down on their places, opposite of the two adults. "What happened you two?" Carol asks with a chuckle "You both look horribly exhaused". "Too much studying" Finn groans in frustration as an answer.

After dinner Kurt goes up again and calls Blaine like always. But today they don't call as long as usual since Kurt hardly can keep his eyes open. He'll just go to bed early today and tomorrow he'll feel better and more energetic again.

Blaine doesn't mind hanging up earlier. That gives him more time to call Sebastian again, asking him if they should meet at the weekend again to talk about the progress he made. Making such a change isn't easy and especially not when exams are coming up too.
