Blaine's POV:
The week at home with mum flew by so quickly. Before I knew it, Coop had arrived, and it was the day of the funeral. Kurt met me outside the church and he gives me a big hug.
"How you feeling sweetie?" He asks.
"Okay," I sigh. "I just want to get this over with."
"I know sweetie I know!" Kurt holds me. I begin to cry. He was abusive to me and tried to kill me and Kurt, but I didn't want him to die this way. He still was my father after all. I cry into Kurts shoulder.
"I'm sorry if I've ruined your suit." I apologise to Kurt. He laughs it off and ignores it. He takes my hand and we walk into the church. I see lots if familiar faces. Freya and Hana are there, Burt and Carole, Finn and Rachel, Nick and Jeff all my friends and family and then there right at the front mum, Coop and his mum. I'm expected to sit with them but u sit a couple of rows behind with Kurt.
The service begins well, but when it comes to my speech I feel my legs go numb and Kurt has to squeeze my hand gently and tell me that everything will be okay. I kiss him in the cheek and stand up and walk to the pulpit. I face the congregation and begin to speak,
"My father never accepted me for who I am. He never accepted my love for Kurt and who I was. He abused me for it. He beat me, he threw me against walls and fireplaces. He dragged me down the stairs and broke two of my ribs. He even tried to kill me and Kurt the night he was killed but the police got him first. He killed 3 men that night and shot me in the shoulder and Kurt in the arm. But even after 3 whole years of abuse, i still love him. Before I knew I was gay we would hang out, watch the game together, play socker in the garden and watch TV together. We even built a car together once. I guess the point I'm making here is that even though there was alot of bad things about him which caused him to be dead here today, there is still a man behind the alcohol and hatred that was loving and kind and I would like to invite my friends forward to help me say goodbye to you dad. I want you to know that I forgive you for what you did to me. I forgive you dad! I forgive you!" I'm yelling near the end looking down at his corpse.
"I love you dad. This ones for you." I smile walking down to join Kurt, Finn, Rachel, Mercedes, Freya, Hana, Nick and Jeff. Then the music begins,
We all sing in harmony:
Five hundred twenty five thousand six hundred minutes
Five hundred twenty five thousand moments so dear
Five hundred twenty five thousand six hundred minutes
How do you measure, measure a year?
In daylights, in sunsets
In midnights, in cups of coffee
In inches, in miles, in laughter, in strife
In five hundred twenty five thousand six hundred minutes
How do you measure, a year in the life?
How about love?
How about love?
How about love?
Measure in love
Seasons of love(love)
Seasons of love(love)
Five hundred twenty five thousand six hundred minutes
Five hundred twenty five thousand journeys to plan
Five hundred twenty five thousand six hundred minutes
How do you measure the life of a woman or a man?
Me: In truths that she learned
Or in times that he cried
In bridges he burned or the way that she died
Then they join me again in harmony:
It's time now, to sing out
Though the story never ends
Let's celebrate
Remember a year in the life of friends
Remember the love
(Oh, you got to, you got to remember the love)
Remember the love
(You know that love is a gift from up above)
Remember the love
(Share love, give love, spread love)
Measure in love
(Measure, measure your life in love)
Seasons of love
Seasons of love
(Measure your life, measure your life in love)
"I'll love you always Dad! Rest in peace." I say.
