They’d let him walk away for ten minutes-ten minutes!-and already Kurt was lost. Carole didn’t know if he was hiding or genuinely lost. They were getting ready to call the police when Carole heard a vaguely familiar voice coming from the floor near a rack of skirts.
“-come on my show, Fondue for Two,” a girl was saying. “You don’t have to talk. My cat’s epileptic. He’ll read your mind and tell me what you’re saying.”
Carole looked down through the circle of the rack just in time to see Kurt lean forward and kiss someone firmly on the lips. There had to have been tongue in a kiss like that.
“Oh god.” Carole dived through the racks and yanked Kurt out. He kicked at her and grumbled unhappily. “Oh my god, I’m so sorry.”
Brittany Pearce stepped out from under the rack and waved. “Hi, Mrs. Hudson.”
Carole let go of Kurt‘s arm when Burt came to haul him out the store’s front door before the upcoming tantrum hit.
“I’m sorry about that, Brittany. Kurt doesn't know any better.”
Brittany shrugged. “He’s a really good kisser.”
Carole winced at Kurt’s first scream, audible even from inside the store. “I’d better go pay for this.”
“Tell Kurt I like his singing.”
The poor clerk at the register looked like he was either going to have a heart attack or call the police. He could see Burt and Kurt struggling in the parking lot and probably thought one or the other needed help but couldn’t tell which.
Carole poked him with the credit card. “I’m sorry about my son. If you’ll ring me up now, we can get out of your hair.”
The clerk looked at her, then back at the window. “I don’t know how much the scarf is.”
“Do you want to go out there and find out?”
“Five dollars sounds good.”
The scarf, Carole would later find out, cost forty dollars, over hundred had it been direct from the designer store. She could understand why the clerk let it go, though. Burt looked exhausted by the time they got home. He sent Kurt to his room and went upstairs himself to take a nap.
Carole decided to have a cup of coffee and wait for Finn to come home.
