Can you beat my game of hangman?

A Facebook message pops up on Blaine's phone. He steps away from the spaghetti dinner he was preparing, and sits down. It's a memory, from nine years ago.

After punching in his password, a picture comes up.

Smiling on a stage, Blaine, Rachel, Quinn, Santana, Brittany, Sebastian, and Kurt are all throwing their graduation caps in the air in sync. Blaine can't help but smile back at the memory. Throughout high school, the group had had their ups and downs. But on that day, everything was good.

-

A year had passed. After prom, Sebastian and Kurt weren't exactly celebrities anymore. They did, however, make it through the year as a couple.

I was at my locker, cleaning it out. Graduation was next week, and locker clean-outs were soon. Might as well get ahead of the game. Kurt and I had become good friends. Not like it used to be, but we weren't radio silent. His locker was just across the hallway, next to Rachel's. Peeking in my mirror at him behind me, I caught him doing the same with me and his mirror. I laugh and turn around, closing my locker. "Perv."

Kurt rolled his eyes and smiled at me playfully. Sebastian came up behind Kurt and mumbled something to him. The petite boy nodded and the two walked out the side doors. I couldn't help but wonder what that was about.

Rachel crept up behind me and said plainly, "He made it into UCLA."

"Excuse me?" I turned to face her, confused.

"Sebastian made it into UCLA. And Kurt made it into NYADA. He starts next fall with me."

I couldn't help but smile. "I made it into NYU..."

"That's great and all Blaine, but this isn't about you." Rachel said, matter-a-factly.

My smile dropped, "Uh, whats it about?"

"Sebastian will be in California. Kurt will be in New York. Across the country."

Suddenly, I looked at the doors where the couple had left. This will crush Kurt. "Oh...You're right..."

Rachel sighs sadly, shaking her head. "Glee club's gonna be so weird..."

An idea sparking in my head, I stop Rachel, "Hey! I know schools almost over and everything, but do you think I could attend a glee rehearsal? I mean, I've been in both Rocky Horror and I was your co star in West Side Story...I'm also a musical theatre major at NYU..."

Rachel smiles kindly and nods, "Of course Blaine. We always had great harmonies. Follow me."

"Oh," I said, surprised, "It's now?"

"Uh, yeah. Is that a problem?"

"No, not at all. Lead the way."

We walked down the hallway side by side. Although I was active in theatre, I've never actually been apart of glee club. Especially since Quinn, Santana, and Brittany joined. I just kind of got the feeling they didn't want me around.
