Rating: PG-13 (Likely to turn NC-17 later, but undetermined)
Beta: My lovely Laura aka- gottriplets and the lovely Rebecca (andiheardeverything//preciousmellow) both of whom are the only reason this fic looks anything remotely coherent or medically accurate ;)
Warnings: Cancer, discussions of terminal illness and infidelity (NO character death ;), for those of you who are triggered by that )
Summary: Blaine’s elaborate plans for the “best senior year ever” get brought to a halt and his dreams of a future are stripped away when he discovers that the headaches he’s been having, aren’t really headaches at all and all of his strange behavior lately, including cheating on Kurt, can all blamed on one thing - there’s a tumor growing inside of his brain that’s doing it’s best to kill him. (AU post “The New Rachel”)
AN: For those of you who’ve been following me for a long time, you’ll remember this fic from last summer that I started posting then took down because I hated how it turned out. Well I’ve revamped it and given it some more direction and now I’m finally ready to post it. I’ve got the first half of it written already so I’ll be posting every Friday for now so you all know. Some of the scenes in this story will be from the previous one but a lot has been changed or completely taken out.

It started with a headache, likely brought on by staying up late for a Skype date with Kurt that never happened. He didn’t think anything of it at the time, knowing that it would go away with a couple of Advil and a good nights sleep - if that was even possible with everything he had to do that day.
