Nothings Gonna Harm You Not While I'm Around (Klaine: Glee)

Part 10

Blaine’s POV: 

2 years ago

‘Hey Neil, can I tell you something?’ as we sat crossed legged on my bed watching Doctor Who. I wasn’t that big a fan of it but Neil loved it.

‘Sure dude, what’s up?’ he asked.

‘And we will still be best friends no matter what?’ I pause, ‘You’re not going to hate me?’

‘Of course not, we’re best friends Blaine. I am here for you bro, tell me your problems!’ he laughs.

I hesitate before I speak, ‘Well you’re the first person I’m telling, I’ve not even told Freya yet.’ I pause, ‘I’m gay.’

I watch as Neil’s face turns and he backs away and stands up.

‘Are you taking the piss Blaine?’ Neil asked shocked.

‘No, I’m gay, I like boys instead of girls.’ I explain.

‘You…. You…’ he stopped and searched for the right word. ‘Fag’

‘You said we would still be best friends no matter what!’ I shout.

‘No… I can’t be friends with a fag… just wait until Jake finds out...’ Neil laughs. ‘Your going to be the biggest target of the whole school!’

‘And you think that’s funny after all we’ve been through together?’

‘Dude… your not my best friend anymore… we’re not even friends.’ He says coldly. ‘I have to go.’

‘Neil wait!’ I yelled after him as he ran out of my room and out of the house.

I fall to the floor, hold my head in my hands and cry.

The next day at school, I go through hell. Summer Vacation is coming up and that means the 8th graders leavers Sadie Hawkins dance is coming up on Saturday and every guy is waiting for a girl to ask them. Lots of girls come up to me and say things like, ‘I would have asked you but you’re gay so what’s the point’ and ‘Go find a penis to suck on instead of coming.’

Luckily my friend Elsa, well she had a crush on me, asked me to the dance and I said yes. I dressed up real nice in a suit my dad bought me and bought Elsa a really pretty corsage. When we got to the dance everything seemed fine but then Jake and his group of friends came out of nowhere.

‘Get out of our school you fag!’ Jake yelled and beat me up. I woke up 3 days letter in the hospital with friendly faces surrounding me.

‘He’s waking up’ I hear Kurt saying.

‘Should we get a nurse or someone?’ I think I hear Rachel saying.

I open my eyes to see Kurt, Rachel and Mercedes sitting around my bed. Kurt looks a bit bashed up but it looks like he hasn’t got any broken bones. Kurt takes my hand and nudges closer to my bed.

‘How you feeling Blaine?’ Mercedes asks.

‘Mmmhh’ I groan, ‘Okay I think’

‘You don’t look okay Blaine, I hope you get better though’ Rachel smiles.

‘He will be, he’s strong my Blaine!’ Kurt smiles.

‘We’ll leave you two alone,’ Rachel smiles standing up and walking out the room with Mercedes so me and Kurt alone.
