I'm coming out of my cage

You really think that I am that weak to give in so soon, sir?

Well. I think it could be easier to convince you otherwise.

Of course, but more than likely we’ll end up opening a book and something else ends up happening knowing us.

I don't even give us making it past the first page, honestly. We'll probably read the first word and well, you know the rest.

I had a feeling you were gonna say that.

But studying should be the main priority, sort of right?

Long study nights? I’m not so sure we’d be studying though.

Hey you never know, we could study most of the time, then maybe do something else.

You won’t. That is definitely okay. I am always open to getting help as well. I’ll definitely need it.

So we'll help each other. Maybe we could have long study nights together?

I could imagine. I’m glad too. You’re not that person anymore. I honestly do not see how you could have ever been that person. It’s night and day. However, it doesn’t matter. You’re who you are now and it’s in the past. Even though I’m distracting you, should I still try to help you with your school work?

Oh well, I have several years of making sure I never go back to being like that. Yeah I wouldn't mind being helped with school worker, but I want to make sure I still help you too, is that okay?

Oh, I see. I guess naturally if two people are in two completely different places in life it’s easy to lose contact. However, it’s nice that we eventually found each other again. Not only in the future, but now as well. I’ll always make sure to distract you then.

Yeah. There was just a lot between us then and it was hard to deal with some of it.But it was great once we met again. It was really great actually.  I'm glad you took the chance on me, even though I was just a dumb jock who hated the glee club and was kind of a dick to everyone.Good, keep distracting me. I'm counting on it.

I’m glad you were able to escape and find peace after your attempt. I just wish I could have been there for you more. Since you’ve always made it sound as if that was when we kind of lost contact. However, I’m glad things got better. And I apologize for being so distracting.

You were there right after my attempt. But it was kind of my fault we lost contact, after I got to Maine, it was just harder to talk to you because of various reasons? Hey no complaints about you being distracting, please keep being distracting.

I’m glad that with all the circumstances that you were still able to make it. However, this time around everything is different. Besides, I could help you, or if anything, I might be a distraction. Who knows?

I guess Lima had become toxic so I couldn't really stay there anymore but once I got out I did so much better. I was doing pretty good before my attempt though, so it wasn't as hard to pick up the peices. I have a feeling you are going to be more of a distraction then help, Kurt.

Very well. It will be definitely a fantastic year. You will succeed. You did the first time around, didn’t you?

I succeeded, barely, but I did.  I spent some time in the hospital, then moving, and then switched to a completely different school. But I think with the less distraction, I was able to actually succeed in graduating on time.

Why is me being a good boy such a funny thing? I’m looking forward to it too even though I would imagine it’s going to be a lot of work. However, I’m mainly looking forward to it since we’ll officially be together during our senior year. Where as before we weren’t.

I...have no idea. Let me get back to you on that.  Yeah i'm looking forward to the fact that I start the year out as out, Blaine's not in the picture, and we're happy. I guess that's all that matter about next year, well, besides actually succeeding.

History papers are quite a pain. Also, all the English assignments at the same time are a little too much. I hate when it’s break time and they decide to give you all this homework during. I thought it was called a break so I can relax. However, I’m a good boy and do it all so my dad seems quite pleased. Senior is year going to be crazy.

No, I think they realized that if they were going to be grading our things over break we might as well be in pain too, and they give us more. This is something we should as Finn. I'm trying not to laugh at your good boy thing for some reason. It will be crazy, and I'm partially not looking forward to it, ut it wont be the same as the first time, so i'm actually kind of really looking forward to it.

Oh, yes, well I suppose I didn’t think about it that way. I guess you’re right in that. It would technically be the same thing. However, it’s also been awhile. You sure that you’d remember how every single assignment happened? But I guess changing a few things could have changed other things like that.

I mean, I remember being angry at all of them the first time. Math and science weren't as ad, but those history papers killed me.  Dad kind of got on my ass to bring my grades up by the end of the year. I kind of let them drop majorly back then. So i really remember the history assignments. Its going to be interesting next year though, because i went to two different schools, so I don't know Mckinley's stuff.

Well, it’s been many years since you’ve been to school and even though it’s the same school, it would make sense assignments, and what not would change.

But it's the same time, like everything is supposed to be the same? But you know that rule thing if you change something in the past, everything changes? Maybe that's what happened...

Oh, I couldn’t imagine hearing the same thing over and over again. However, I wouldn’t have minded it. Then I wouldn’t have had to study. I’m already packed and ready to go. I was too excited to wait.

You would think that it was useful. butis almost as if all of the stuff we learned the first time is different? I mean there is a lot of assignments I remember, but there is a lot I don't remember?

Have to admit it is quite a relief not having to do homework, or study. It definitely is a bonus that we’re going to be able to go to Maine.

I'm just looking forward to not having to deal with things i've already learned again. Are your bags packed for the trip, Kurt? Or are you doing that later?
