Oh, that was SO INTERESTING. You know, before I read this I just thought Dave was terrified of Kurt telling this when it counted to Sue and his dad, but this really opened my eyes. What if he desperately wants them to know, but just can't find the strength to tell? What if he really wants to tell his dad, but he just can't, he's not brave enough? When he thinks he'd like to go to Kurt and ask him "Why didn't you tell them? Tell them!", it really touched me, I felt his fear and his sadness but most of all the fact that Dave's not able anymore to hold this secret just to himself. He has to let it out but he's not strong enough, he needed Kurt to do it for him, but he didn't. Damn, this was very good to read!

Thank you. :)

I really don't know what to think about the situation with Kurt and Dave. I love that Kurt thought about Dave and didn't out him, but then again, Kurt knows that Dave is struggling with the situation and has no one to turn to, since no one knows or even suspects that he's gay (unless Mr. Karofsky's strange look was meant to convey "maybe you like Kurt, not the other way around?"). Maybe telling about the kiss would've helped more than that idiotic stairway intervention (I blame Blaine for that).
