Blaine is the one who find him later. Kurt’s managed to shower and change clothes and brush his teeth about fifty times, but not much else. His hair is still damp and probably drying funny because he’s curled up on his bed, but at least the turtleneck sweater he dug out of the closet hides the marks circling his neck. It’s out of season, but the thick material is comforting.

Kurt doesn’t answer the first time Blaine knocks and asks if he’s in there, but he comes back with Kurt’s roommate, Leo, in tow to open the door. Blaine sits on the edge of the bed, nudging the trash can further away with his foot. “Are you sick?” he asks. “Mr. Davis sent me to look for you. You can’t keep skipping class.”

Leo wrinkles his nose at the room. “I’m gonna go find a janitor,” he says, before leaving again.

Blaine tries to lay a hand against Kurt’s forehead, but Kurt jerks away from him. “Why didn’t you go to the nurse if you’re sick?”

Kurt shrugs.

“Come on,” Blaine says. “I’ll go with you.”

Kurt bats his hands away as Blaine tries to help him sit up. “No. I don’t want to go to the nurse.”

“She can give you something if you’ve got the flu,” Blaine says, reaching for him again.

“No.” Kurt brings a fist down against Blaine’s arm and Blaine pulls back, hands raised placatingly.

“Alright, no nurse. What’s wrong?”

Kurt just wraps his arms around his stomach, curling up a bit tighter.

“At least come lay down in my room until they get yours cleaned up?” Blaine suggests.

“Okay.” Kurt nods. He doesn’t really want to be in here, anyway, he just didn’t know where else to go. Karofsky’s been able to find him everywhere at this school. At least here, he can lock the door. He just has to be careful about who’s on the other side when he opens it next time, that’s all.

Blaine looks surprised that Kurt agreed so easily. “Okay?”

Kurt nods again as he sits up. He runs a hand through his hair, trying to push it back into place, and lets Blaine lead him back to his room.

He finally manages to fall asleep there later, in the middle of watching a movie on Blaine’s laptop. Blaine shakes him awake just before curfew and walks back down to Kurt’s room with him. The carpet’s been cleaned. The room looks the same as it did when Kurt left for class this morning.

More later!

I think adding kicked puppies would be one way to make this fic more depressing...

*is not going to do that, promise*

Thank you! :) I want them to find out too, but it's only been a few days really. Part 11 was Friday, and this last part was Monday.

god I love this so much.
it's so fantastic and I flail around idiotically whenever I see it's updated.

Just wondering, about how many parts do you think it'll have in total?

This commment made grin so hard. I'm glad you like it!

I don't know how many parts it will be yet. I've been posting as I go, so I'm only about one part ahead right now. I have a plan tho, and some parts of future scenes are written already. I just don't know how long it will take to get there.

I hadn't checked in on this story in a while (how did I not have the tracking on this?!?) and as a result, there was a terrifically long update to read. Now I'm dealing with the guilt about how very, very happy I was to get such a long update considering, you know... BAD SHIT HAPPENS.

Screw it. I was thrilled about the update.

Seriously though, the way you describe Kurt's despair and helplessness is so damn convincing and heartbreaking. I really think that he is a strong, strong character, but you've made his position sadly believable.

I keep thinking, if people feel guilty reading it then how guilty should I feel for writing it?

Kurt's in a bit of an impossible situation right now, which isn't helped by the fact that he tends to not ask for help or tell people the full story when he does. ):

Thanks for reading sweetie! ♥

Wuh.

Okay. So. Ditto with what everybody above and maybe soon below me said. I'm all incoherent and so far, all the reviews you've gotten express what I need to say.

Also, this is one of the only pieces of writing that I've ever read that actually have me 'on the edge of my seat' and it legitimately makes my heart beat faster. It's suspenseful and terrifying and dramatic and..

just..

lovely. I love it. You're writing so damn well. Please, don't ever stop.

Oh, thank you so much sweetie! I'm really glad that these parts came across well, because I think I wrote most of them on my phone while rendering video at work.
