This is my first time writing fanfiction. Reviews are more than welcome along with constructive criticism. I do not own Glee or any of the characters. This story is AU where WMHS is less homophobic.

Kurt Hummel loved his boyfriend with all his heart. He really did. They were one of the "it" couples at school, the other one being his step-brother Finn Hudson and his girlfriend Quinn Fabray. Now, you might wonder how the bad boy and the fashionista became an item. Well, the short story is that Kurt and Noah became close friends during their freshman year of high school. On the last day of school Noah Puckerman came out in the middle of the lunch period. It had started out as a summer fling but grew into a real monogamous relationship.

Now, for a small town in Ohio, Lima was actually quite accepting. This would explain why when Noah Puckerman came out at the end of freshman year there was not a big backlash.

However, the love Kurt feels for Noah does NOT extend to his football friends especially one Dave Karofsky. Well, Dave was not really a good friend of Noah's but they put up with each other for football. Kurt was not sure what it was but there was something about Dave that just always put Kurt on edge.

And that is where our story begins. The first day of sophomore year.


*Beep* *Beep* *Beep* Kurt slammed his hand on his alarm clock as he looked at the time—5:45 am. This gave Kurt just enough time to get up, shower, go through his moisturizing routine, get dressed, not like his outfit and change at least 10 more times and perfect his hair. Then, he goes to try to wake Finn up who is always still asleep, help his step-mom Carole make breakfast, attempts to wake Finn up a second time, go back to the kitchen and wait for the smell of food to wake Finn up. He then eats a little something, says goodbye to his father and drives to school early enough to socialize before class (or make out with Noah).

(Speaking of Noah, his morning routine is get out of bed at 7:00 am, sometimes 7:15, shower, put on the first pieces of clean clothes he can find, head down to grab a bite to eat, say goodbye to his mom and sister and drive to school hoping to be there before the bell rings. He knows if he is late he is going to have to hear another lecture from Kurt on the importance on being on time.)

Kurt was heading to his locker when he heard someone yelling behind him.

"Kurtsie!" Brittany S. Pierce yelled as she tackle/hugged Kurt from behind.

While the football team was the popular boy group the popular girl group consisted of cheerleaders Brittany Pierce, Quinn Fabray, Santana Lopez along with Kurt (who calls himself an honorary girl) and other cheerleaders and girlfriends of the football team.

"Hey Britt, how was your summer?" Kurt asked.

"It was so good Kurtie! I spent most of it getting sweet lady kisses from Santana." Brittany said as the Latina cheerleader walked up by her.

"That's nice Brit—" Kurt started to say but was cut off as someone ran into him.

"I'm sorry. I'm sorry," the voice kept repeating.

Kurt stayed silent and watched as a gothic Asian girl ran off to her group of friends.

"Hey, watch it FREAK!" Santana yelled at the girl. Kurt just kept quite as he watched the girl, Tina he believed her name was, reached the rest of the "loser" group. This group consisted of Rachel Berry, Mercedes Jones, Artie Abrams (knows as wheelchair boy to most) and Tina Cohen-Chang. Kurt was never actual friends with any of them but he was aware of who they were, seeing as Kurt was considered a loser before befriending Noah and later becoming his boyfriend. Kurt would never say this out loud but there were sometimes when he was a part of that group.

"Well, hello there Princess," someone yelled at Kurt.

This was one of those times. Kurt turned to see Dave Karofsky coming his way.

"What do you want you Neanderthal?" Kurt sneered.

"Oh, I was just wondering where your precious boyfriend was."

"None of your damn business you meat head!" Kurt yelled

"Leave Kurt alone." Brittany yelled at Karofsky.

Karofsky turned and was going to say some rude comeback until he saw Santana step in front of Brittany with an icy cold stare that dared him to do something.

"Whatever," Karofsky said as he headed to the cafeteria to get his slushie for some poor freshman. "Everyone knows you two haven't had sex yet. You wait much longer and Puck will get bored and dump your ass anyways."

After Karofsky left, Kurt continued his way to his locker with the two cheerleaders in tow. Kurt was waiting for it.

"Seriously Hummel, you haven't given Puck your v-card yet?" Santana asked once they reached his locker.

There it was the question he had been dreading. Puck is known to "get some" within weeks of getting with anew fling. The fact that Kurt and him were going on two months and still had not had sex was shocking to a majority of the student body, but Kurt was not just another fling. At least he hoped not. Besides he was not dating Puck he was dating Noah and as stupid as it sounds those really are two different people.

"No, Santana I didn't. I actually want to wait until the time is right."

"Wait? Your hot, he's hot just do it already!" Santana tried to reason.

"My boy and I will do it when the time is right." THE voice Kurt had been waiting for said behind him.

Kurt turned around and saw his boyfriend, Noah Puckerman, standing there leaning against the row of lockers, looking hot as hell one might add. Noah walked up to Kurt and gave him a passionate kiss in the middle of the hallway.

"Now if you two would excuse us I have to walk my boyfriend to class." Noah stated in Santana and Brittany's direction. He put his arm around Kurt's shoulders and started off towards his class.

"So how was your morning babe?" Noah asked as they walked.

"Fine," Kurt answered "Better now that you are here." He decided to not mention his conversation with Karofsky. Kurt really didn't want his boyfriend to get suspended on the first day of the school year for fighting.

It was when they walked by the announcement board, covered with brightly colored flyers, that something caught his eye. A signup sheet for a new glee club called New Directions. And auditions were tomorrow at 3:00 pm!

"Noah someone is starting a glee club!" Kurt excitedly told his boyfriend.

Noah obviously missed the excitement in Kurt's voice because he answered, "Yeah, those losers started it. It is already being called 'The Loser Club.' Well here we are at your English class." Kurt's face fell a little but he kept a small smile as he hugged and kissed his boyfriend goodbye as the bell rang, but not before promising to meet in their secret spot at lunch for some making out to make up for not having any time that morning.

As Kurt sat in English he couldn't stop thinking. 'I couldn't be in a club that could hurt Puck's popularity.' Kurt thought. 'He took such a huge risk by coming out for me. He could have lost his friends or family. I don't want to mess everything up. But I do love to sing and perform.' In fact watching musicals with his mother was his favorite thing to do with her before her untimely death.

'Oh well,' Kurt thought. 'I value my relationship more than being in some stupid club.'

The rest of Kurt's day was pretty ordinary. Go to class, make out with Noah at lunch, go to more class, make out with Noah some more during his free period, and finish his day with French class.

At the day's end Kurt was ready to go home. He knew he wouldn't see Noah until after football practice or tryouts or something. He had planned to go see his dad at his mechanic shop until Noah called him when he was done. However something stopped him. As he walked out to his car he walked by the announcement board and the glee signup sheet. And as if he was in some sort of trance he walked up to the audition list and took out his pen. Just as he was about to sign his name his phone went off.

"Hey buddy, you there?" It was his father, Burt Hummel.

"Yeah dad, I'm here."

"I was just checking to see if you were still coming to help out at the garage today?"

"Yeah, I'm still coming. I am walking out to my car now dad, don't worry."

"Okay kid. Is that punk still coming over today?"

Kurt couldn't help but chuckle. "Yes, dad, Noah is still coming over for dinner tonight." Burt Hummel was not a fan of the punk trying to devirginize his little boy. Kurt looked once more at the signup sheet and walked away.

"Fine, but he is gone by 10:30 TONIGHT." Burt said putting extra emphasis on the tonight. Kurt and Noah found out the hard way that being told to leave at 10:30 and decided that meant 10:30 the next morning resulting in Burt finding them in bed together (fully clothed) was not the best way to get Noah on his good side.

"Okay dad. I'm to my car so I will see you in a few."

"Well, alright goodbye Kurt."

"Bye dad," Kurt said before hanging up.

As Kurt drove to his dad's garage he saw Rachel Berry with sheet music for her glee audition and couldn't help but feel like he was making a big mistake.

I realize that I start this story on the first day of sophomore year and Kurt is already driving so let's just pretend for the purpose of this work of fiction that Kurt turned 16 at the beginning of August and took Drivers Ed. Over the summer…or something.

I only put the "short story" version of Puck and Kurt getting together because I plan to have a flashback chapter that will be longer and more detailed.
