Kai's POV

I walk into the locker room after practice, I march to my locker and open it before grabbing my towel and wiping the sweat off my arms and my face

"Yo you good, you've been a bit off lately" Isaiah asks and I nod wordlessly before doing my hygiene

"Hey Kai...you ok...little off your game today....and the last few days" I hear Puck say causing me to sigh and ignore him

"Leave her alone Puck" Finn says and Puck waves him off

"Nah Finn......let the freak respond...maybe it's because she found out about me and Mercedes a few days ago from my girl" Puck says tauntingly and I slam my locker closed and turn to Puck who I tower over

"Yo Kai chill man, ignore his punk ass" Isaiah says as he pushes me away from Puck who smile cockily

"Yea Kai..listen to your friend...just mad you didn't have Mercedes first" Puck says while winding his hips in a sexual way, that sets me off and i lunge towards him but Beiste catches me and drags me out of the locker room

"Come on kid...calm down" Coach Beiste says as she holds me and I breath heavily, I look over and see Quinn, Santana and Mercedes walking towards me

"Baby are you ok, what happened" Mercedes says and I just stare at her coldly as Beiste lets me go

I immediately walk past Mercedes and the girls only to be faced with Emmanuel who laughs at me, I shove past him as he almost falls but I don't care

I storm into the auditorium as I need a place to breath, I take deep breaths as I sit at the piano

Emmanuel's constant jabs, Mercedes keeping Puck and her a secret from me, Breah starting to flirt too much

All of it is getting overwhelming

"You know...you need to control your anger....won't make it to the NBA with that attitude" I hear my brother says as his crutches echo in the auditorium

"Leave me alone jackass, you aren't helping...frankly you've been making it worse" I say before moving away from him

"Well maybe I'm trying to warn you...ever thought of that" He says and I turn around to look at him crazy

"What! Warn me of what" I say confused and he sighs with a laugh

"Life after high school...college ball...it's unforgiving and you'll hear all those things I said all the time...even now...your so used to not hearing it that you get so upset about it, wait till your injured and can't play" Emmanuel says smugly and I shake my head

" I don't even know you anymore....you used to be direct but now your passive as fuck and won't just tell me straight out...are you mad I'm not injured or something or that you can't play" I say and he clenches his jaw
