High school is a difficult period for most people, but for Kurt Hummel, it is a living hell. Being the only person out of the closet at his school makes him the main target of the bullies and with no one who can relate to him, Kurt feels isolated. But what will happen when Kurt meets the new jock, Blaine Anderson? All the character and the universe in this fanfiction belong to Fox and the writers of Glee: Ryan Murphy, Ian Brennan and Brad Falchuk. I used them to create a new story.

Kurt Hummel's life had led up to the very moment he took the chance to escape to the big city, New York. Blaine Anderson's morning had led up to the moment he stepped into homeroom. When back in the hometown of Lima, Ohio, Kurt and the other graduates have the opportunity to help out the Glee Club and reconnect with old friends. But with old friends come new, as he and a captivating young boy named Blaine are about to find out. How much can two people really change when they're years, miles, and thoughts apart?

Kurt is the broken boy. He never speaks, hardly smiles. Blaine is the new roommate at Dalton. He's rude, doesn't think. Cover made by the lovely, @The_Midnight_Wolf!
