A Klaine love story, if you don't like M/M I recommend you do not read.

So this is a story that I hope is quite original, I spent so long on brainstorming for this. Enjoy (:

Summary: Kurt has troubles with a dark memory that haunts him. He transfers to get away from all the stress and runs into love. Kurt joins a "Blackout Club", which involves a group of kids in a dark room talking about problems. When Kurt finds himself paired up with Blaine, he falls in love with inner beauty. Due to strict policy, Kurt and Blaine are not to see who their partner really looks like until the end of the club. Their love becomes stronger; when physical looks aren't blocking the true inner beauty.

Read, enjoy and review!

Feeling safe and warm under the blankets is all he wanted to feel. Something about the softness and the occasional prick of a spark set off dangerous feelings and thoughts to his brain. Every time he would move, there was something screaming at this fried brain to move.

You are going to take this; there isn't anything you could do about it.

Kurt abruptly sat up in his bed in a cold sweat. He absently dragged his feet and let them fall off the bed. He sat there hunched, and stared at the floor. Anything to push back that dark memory that sat in his thoughts. As if Kurt had enough weight on his shoulders, this memory liked to torture him more. Kurt glanced at the clock on his bedside.

"Looks like I'm getting up for good." He groaned.

If there was one thing that helped Kurt relax more than anything, it was singing. Sometimes he would sing masculine songs, but hardly ever. Feminine was his way.

"...late for school, Kurt!" his dad urged, both Kurt and himself.

Kurt walked up the stairs, and caught his father. "Dad!" he urgently said. Kurt took his father's hands, and took a shaky breath. "There's something that you need to know."

His father tensed up, "Oh God, not something about another guy is it? I, you know, I'm so not ready to have that talk just yet..."

Kurt panicked, "No! Definitely not. It's just that..." he broke off.

His mind wandered back to the memory. The darkness, the music pumping loudly.

You are going to take this...

There isn't anything you could do about it.

"You really need to start using hand lotion." He rushed, along with a smile that didn't reach his eyes.

"You're kidding, right? Kurt, are you feeling okay. Something getting you down?" his father asked.

Kurt shook his head no, trying to cover up. He rushed out of the house walking to school. The place he didn't want to go. Kurt didn't have the average high school life. He was much lower. Kurt was the only openly gay kid at school, which wasn't such a great start. Of course it'd be a shame to hide who he really was. Who would want to end up getting caught making out with another boy, through the "so-called straight" label.

Speaking of, Kurt's never been kissed. But he didn't want to think about it. Needless to say, with his luck and reputation, he'd be stuck being the 40-year old virgin. Anyways, Kurt turned to the only safe place. The glee club took anyone who needed to feel included. Not only no one would judge him but he's grown really close to the members. Almost like family.

"Hey Kurt! Slow down bro, what's the big rush?" a voice said.

Kurt turned around, and smiled instantly. "Oh hey Finn. I just really needed some air I guess."

Finn was his step brother. This was something Kurt was still getting used to. He had a major crush on him before their parents married. Finn was the typical football quarterback. The most popular guy in school, until he joined glee club. In Kurt's eyes, he's still very popular. Finn was very tall, with dark hair gelled up in thick waves. Something Kurt taught him to do. Kurt was the opposite, being short with brown hair but obviously carefully styled.

"Hey dude. So what song did you choose for glee club?" Finn asked.

"I haven't really chosen. There's been too much on my mind," Kurt started, "do you think you could tell Mr. Shuester I'm going to see the guidance councillor this morning?"

"Sure. If there's anything I could do, just tell me. Later!" Finn said as he ran to Rachel, his girlfriend.

Kurt smiled as Finn held Rachel's hand and bent down to kiss her gently.

"Kurt! How ya doin'!" Mercedes screamed rushing into a hug.

"Mercedes, don't you think it's unfair I can't walk around this school holding hands with someone I like?" Kurt asked, clearly hurt.

Mercedes' smile quickly turned understanding, "Well of course it's unfair. But you know you can do it if you want. Because even if people judge, you know glee club will always be there for you." She chimed.

Kurt shrugged. "Of course. What was I thinking? I just wish there was a school out there that was for people like me, you know?"

"I totally understand, some guys at this school are so far in the closet. Any deeper they'll reach Narnia." Mercedes joked.

Kurt giggled, "Then there's some who are afraid to say the word gay, even when their mouths are full of one."

Mercedes nodded, and headed off to class, Kurt strode into McKinley over to his locker. Kurt opened his locker; put all his books in, as the hallway pooled students into rooms leaving him alone in the hallway.

Kurt sighed, singing quietly down the hallway on his way over to the guidance councillor.

Have you lost your way

Livin' in the shadow of the messes that you have made

And so it goes

Everything inside your circle starts to overflow...
