Author's Notes: Ok so I sat down to do write the scenes with Finn and Kurt and somehow ended up writing about 1300 words. So sincere apologies that Sam isn't actually in this chapter, he's talked about though so yay? Anyway it's just for this chapter and then back to business as usual next chapter.
Chapter 12
Kurt was woken from his uneasy sleep by a loud groan from Finn’s bed.
“Morning!” Kurt said brightly, causing Finn to flinch and clutch his head.
“Urgh why did I get so drunk?” Finn moaned.
“Because you’re mad and thought it was the best solution to the situation with Rachel” Kurt said deadpan.
“Yeah that sounds like something I’d do” Finn confessed, still clutching his head.
Kurt shook his head, walking to their bathroom and getting a glass of water before returning and handing it to Finn “Here” he said, “It’ll help”.
“Thanks dude”
“How much do you actually remember?” Kurt asked worriedly.
“Bits...I remember Mike dragging me away from Quinn and driving me home and Sam being here and having to drag me off you and y-“ Finn stopped short. “Fuck!“
“And there it is” Kurt said dryly.
“Fuck” Finn repeated. “Dude I’m so sorry I-“
“Don’t worry about it”
“But , shit, I shouldn’t have - just this whole thing with Rachel was screwing my head and shit! And I scared you!”
“You didn’t”
“Yes I did Kurt, you flinched - I saw you!”
“It wasn’t you it was just...it reminded me of something I’ve been trying to forget”
“What?”
Kurt didn’t answer and Finn took that as his cue to make his way over to the smaller boys bed and sit down next to him, ignoring his hurting head as his concern for the smaller boy overtook him. “Come on dude, Kurt, you can tell me” Finn said so earnestly that it swayed Kurt.
Kurt began to ramble as if getting the words out quicker would help. “Karofsky had stepped up his bullying and so when Puck said about Dalton I jumped at the chance to go and then I met Blaine and I was talking about it and he said I should call Karofsky out and so I was yelling at Karofsky in the locker room and he was getting mad and then he- he kissed me and I pushed him away and then he got even worse bullying because he would do stuff like wink at me and get right into my personal space and I was so scared-“
“And that’s why he threatened to kill you” Finn continued slowly. “I knew that didn’t make sense”
“Yes. And I know you’re not him but it was just that it felt so similar having an unexpected kiss that I didn’t want and so I freaked and I’m sorry”
“Dude don’t you apologize. But what the hell? Why didn’t you tell me?! I could have helped!”
“You don’t want to know”
“No I really do” Finn said insistently. “What the hell made you think that you couldn’t tell me?!”
Kurt sighed. “Because I knew Karofsky would deny it and I wasn’t so sure that you would take the ‘boy who doesn’t understand that no means no’ s word over the popular jocks word, funnily enough”
“That’s ridiculous I-“
“This was before your change of heart Finn, back when you thought me singing a duet with a guy was the worst idea ever, remember?”
“I...I know I went too far with the not understanding that no means no thing. I know that but Christ dude you have to believe I’m on your side now”
“I do believe that.” Kurt told him, surprised with how much he actually meant it. “That just doesn’t change what happened back then”
“So you kept this to yourself? Dude that’s messed up!”
“I told Blaine...and Sam”
“Sam?! You told the new kid before you told me?! Seriously?!”
“Yes?” Kurt tried hesitantly.
Finn glared.
“Well he kind of didn’t give me much choice anyway but he was nice, we were becoming friends and he noticed about the bullying and so yeah I told him - oh don’t sulk” Kurt finished as Finn pouted.
“Dude you barely knew him! We’re meant to be like family”
“That’s never going to stop sounding weird-“
“Just because you have a crush on him-“
“And hold it there because I didn’t have a crush on him.” Kurt cut him off. “But while we’re on the topic of Sam - why exactly were you guys deciding that Sam was my boyfriend last night?”
“Urgh I told you that?”
“Uh huh. So spill”
“Well I think Quinn started it because Sam told her he liked someone else when they were breaking up, and he had told me he liked someone else too actually now I think about it, and then he ran off after like 30 minutes to come here and Quinn thought he would want to spend Christmas Eve with the person he liked so yeah. Um I didn’t agree at first but then we were debating it at Puck’s and then Artie and Mike agreed with her because he was a ‘manimal’ against Karofsky and it was obviously about something deeper than Karofsky being a jerk. And Mercedes agreed because whenever she couldn’t get hold of you on the phone or computer it was because you were always talking to Sam. And Tina agreed because- well I can’t actually remember her reason”
“Right...and this all convinced you?” Kurt said sceptically.
“That and other stuff. Let’s just say if Sam’s gay then that explains whole heap of things”
“O...k. Well for arguments sake let’s say you’re right. Then why are you not freaking out right now?”
“I kinda am just quietly. I mean Sam’s...like me”
“As in a jock and not a fashion and Broadway loving high pitched obviously gay guy” Kurt said bitterly.
“Well, yeah. It’s weird. Suddenly the picture of people being gay I had that was basically you, and Blaine slightly, has been abruptly changed to find out Karofsky is too?! And then Sam...”
“Right” Kurt said shortly.
“Hey, I’ll be fine once I’ve got my head around it dude” Finn assured Kurt. “I’m not going to let this be an issue again. I mean I spent so long being freaked out by you having a crush on me, thinking that made you less of a ‘man’, I finally got how awesome you are, gay or not, and you had to leave because of how bad things got. It’s kinda put things into perspective”
Kurt paused as he took this in. “Finn, I think you may actually be growing up. That’s a vaguely terrifying thought” he added to himself quietly.
“If Puck can not sleep with my girlfriend again then there’s hope for all of us not repeating mistakes...maybe next time he won’t even make out with my girlfriend!”
“Fingers crossed! I take it last night they were-“
“Together. Alcohol and gossip actually helped surprisingly”
“Up to a point” Kurt reminded him.
“Yeah sorry again dude, I get over affectionate when drunk apparently”
“You’ve kissed boys before when drunk?!” Kurt burst out.
“No! No that was...definitely a first! But I get clingy, pretty sure I was clinging onto Quinn for like 10 minutes before Mike drove me home last night...and you were there so-“
“Perfect”
“Anyway don’t change the subject. Sam. You DO like him right?”
“I-yeah” Kurt admitted.
“Then go for it dude. Although I was sure you were going to end up with that Blaine kid”
“Why? Because we’re both gay?” Kurt said sarcastically.
“Yes?” Finn said uncertainly.
“Sorry to disappoint you but I don’t think it actually works like that. Besides my type is more jock like apparently”
“...good to know I guess. Do you have any aspirin? My head was banging before this conversation, now it’s even worse”
“I’ll get some and more water, make sure you’re sobered up before our parents get up to open presents”
“Oh yeah! Happy Christmas! I totally forgot”
“Seriously Finn, don’t drink that much again” Kurt sighed as he walked upstairs, feeling lighter than he had felt all night now that he had told Finn everything and he hadn’t even freaked out, this was definite progress, although Kurt felt he did owe a certain part of Finn’s calmness to the boy being hung-over. And Sam...well Kurt would think about that later, he had Christmas Day to deal with first.
