Chapter Notes: Umm...Sorry? You have no idea how sorry I am that I haven't updated for how long? 3 weeks? I'm really sorry. Writer's block sucks!
Anyway, on with the chapter.
Lots of drama here, just to let you know! Please don't hate me? Everything will work out, I promise!
Enjoy? :P
There is only one thing I hate about going back to Ohio; it means you will have to say goodbye.
Even though I have done it before, it gets harder and harder every time I have to leave my family behind and go back to New York; the supposed city of dreams. But really, it feels as though I would much rather just be surrounded by people who love me than in a big city where no one knows who you are, because even if you see them twice in the same day, they won't regard who you are because there are too many others making their way to places and it is guaranteed that there is at least one person who looks exactly like you anyway.
You aren't completely unique there.
Of course I am grateful for New York; it brought me Blaine. But that seems to be the only solid thing I have gotten out of it. I doubt myself a lot. I doubt that I made the right choice moving there.
But then I remember Blaine, and I regret nothing.
Without New York, I would have to say goodbye to my family alone and not have anyone there to comfort me on the ride home that would usually be so lonely. Music just wasn't the best company.
"Kurt honey, you really need to get going" Carole said whilst hugging me as tightly as she could manage, Blaine being engulfed in a bear hug from Finn on the other side of the room. A single tear rolled down my cheek as I squeezed her tighter, not wanting to let go of this woman who had become my mom. I shook my head and Carole chuckled.
"Finn...can't...breathe..." Blaine choked from the corner where a tear was slowly rolling down Finn's cheek, swiftly being brushed away as quickly as it had fallen. Finn pulled back as I let go of Carole, moving to embrace dad whilst Carole hugged Blaine.
We had all shed a tear by the time me and Blaine were at the door, bags in our hands, ready for the ride. Blaine squeezed my hand tightly as we unlocked the door, tears rolling down my cheeks. I always found saying bye to my family the hardest thing ever; except when I have to leave Blaine.
"Kurt we need to go honey." Blaine said, chuckling slightly as I embraced Dad for the 5th time, promising to call as soon as we got back to New York as I did.
"Bye everyone!" I said as me and Blaine walked out the door hand in hand, only to be followed outside by them all anyway. Blaine kissed my cheek before taking my suitcase and putting it in the boot. I climbed in to the driver's seat, Blaine following closely behind, shouting goodbye as he did so. He took my hand over the console and brought it to his lips before leaning over and kissing my tears away before planting a peck to my lips. I smiled and turned to wave at my small family before turning the key and pulling out of the driveway, still waving out of my window, Blaine doing the same.
When we turned the corner at the end of the road, Blaine stopped waving and turned to me, a sympathetic look on his face. He placed his hand on top of mine, both resting on the gear-stick.
"I know how hard that is for you Kurt, to say goodbye to them."
I turned my head swiftly to glance at him, his hazel eyes shining with sympathy.
"Yeah, it's the hardest part" I admitted, looking down to my lap sadly.
"I'll always be here you know. I don't really know exactly how hard it is to leave your family because they never really cared...but I know how hard it is to be apart from you and I'm guessing that is kind of similar right?"
I nodded gently, looking in his eyes as we came up to a red light. I leaned over and pecked him gently on the lips before answering.
"Yeah, it is like that, only being apart from you is ten times worse. I really miss them, like all the time, but I feel like I should have gotten used to it by now instead of still crying over it like this every time I have to leave them. I just wish they were closer you know?"
Blaine nodded and kissed my knuckles gently.
"Come on, let's put some music on, lighten the mood a little" he suggested, wiping the tears from my cheeks with the pad of his thumb before pressing the on button of my car radio.
"There has been a report of a tragic car accident in New York today" the radio said, making me turn the radio up and unconsciously lean closer to try and hear better "Located on the corner of 34th Avenue, it had not been confirmed whether anyone had been harmed tragically but both women are on their way to the hospital now, their names have not been yet confirmed. The building had been harmed and will be in desperate need of great restoration."
I froze. "The corner of 34th Avenue"
The words rang in my ears as I pulled in to the lay-by, my eyes wide and my mouth gaping in shock of the news.
That was the coffee shop.
Our coffee shop.
Our dreams together; and now this had happened.
"Kurt-"Blaine began, but I choked up immediately, what were we going to do? He leaned over and pulled me in to his arms, rubbing my back soothingly as I continued to cry in to his shoulder, staining his reindeer sweater with my salty tears. Blaine continued to whisper sweet nothing in to my ears as I broke down.
"It's going to be okay honey. Shh, shh I've got you. I love you okay? Nothing will change that" Blaine whispered, just making me cry even more from the gentleness of Blaine's touch.
My sobs eventually subsided in to hiccups and dry eyes as I pulled back and looked Blaine in the eye. The look of pure love in his eyes shocked me. I leaned forward and pressed our lips together softly, just needing to feel that something would be okay again.
"We will make everything okay Kurt, everything will be okay in the end, you will see" Blaine told me softly, caressing my cheek with the back of his hand. He planted one last kiss to the corner of my mouth before letting go of my hand and reaching for the door handle, opening the door and stepping out, his shoulders hunching from the cold and hopping on his feet. He made his way around the front of the car and to my door, opening it and leaning over to undo my belt.
"Come on, I'll drive the rest of the way, you need to get some rest after all that crying" I was about to protest but he slid his hands under my knees and wound his arm around my back before hoisting me up, carrying me bridal style to the other side of the car effortlessly. I giggled and kissed his neck gently as he carried me around the front, rubbing our noses together, forgetting about the world as we went.
He placed me back in the passenger side and buckled me up, pressing a lingering kiss to my lips before closing the door and hopping in the other side.
The rest of the car ride back was uneventful, checking the radio every so often for updates on the crash but none ever came. All I wanted to know was who was hurt, what if it was someone I knew? I would be forever guilty. Two women? What if it was Quinn and Rachel, or Brittany and Santana?
No, it couldn't be, I would have been called by now right?
I fell asleep soon after that, the thoughts of what could have happened filling my head.
I was woken by the sound of sirens and flashing lights bursting through my eyelids. I cracked open an eyelid to see Blaine by my side, looking out of the windshield with wide eyes.
"Blaine?"
Blaine turned his head to look at me, tears in his eyes. He shook his head and turned his gaze back to the windshield, and what I saw made me gasp.
It was carnage.
