(Blaine finds Aly crying under a tree.)
Blaine: Aly?
Aly: Just goes away Blaine (crying) I just can’t do this anymore.
Blaine: (sits next to her and puts one arm around her.) What’s the matter? What happen to you?
Aly: If I tell you, you won’t believe me. (Crying)
Blaine: Yes I will. I’m your friend. (Looks at Aly with concern.)
Aly: (looks at Blaine with watery red eyes and wipe her tears away.) Okay, but it’s a long story.
Blaine: You talk and I’ll listen. (Gives a small side smile.)
Aly: (clears her throat.) Well on that day when I got the girly make over, Rick and his two homies came up behind me and carried me outside. They dumped me inside the trash bin and I got stuck for hours. So when I finally got out, it was 4:50pm and I hurried home so no one can see me or smell me. So when I got home, my dad was home. He started yelling at me and he smelled like beer but extremely. Then he got super mad at me of accusing me of stealing his bottles. And so he started to beat me (stars crying) He beat me super hard Blaine! Then he was close again on hitting me but he was falling asleep. I ran to the bathroom and started washing off the blood but it hurts extremely. (Stops crying and wipes her tears.)
Blaine: Then why didn’t you escape?
Aly: Because he’s the only family I have and he reminds me a part of my mom. (Eyes get watery.)
Blaine: Why didn’t you hit him back like you were able to defend yourself with Rick?
Aly: Because my mom taught me to never hit an elder. I want to so bad but I felt weak. I couldn’t hit my own dad. (Starts crying more.)
Blaine: You should tell Mr. Schu about this. He can help and change this dangerous situation.
Aly: I can’t because then I won’t have any other place to go. I have no one. (Looks down.)
Blaine: (looks concern but upset.) What do you mean you have no one?
Aly: I don’t. (Looks at Blaine.) My cousins are all out of state college students and my aunts and uncles work 24 hours everyday. They don’t have time to take care of me when I’m beat up looking. (Looks down with disappointment.)
Blaine: (lifts Aly’s chin.) You have us, the Glee club.
Aly: It’s too much to ask (gets up) I got to go. I just can’t. (Starts crying.)
Blaine: No! Wait! (Grabs Aly’s hand.) Look, everyone in the Glee club cares about you. You can’t keep running away from your problems. I know, I’ve been there and done that. I’m here for you and Kurt and Rachel. (Aly stops crying.) You have people who care about you. We are your family. (Aly gives a side smile.) Come here. (Blaine opens his arms.)
Aly: (hugs Blaine.) Thanks Blaine for being a good friend and somewhat an older brother to me. I feel like I can’t trust you. Thank you.
Blaine: I’m always here for you. Now come one, lets get you fix and healed.
