At the hospital...
Rachel's POV:

I got to the hospital, and ran in. I heard footsteps behind me, and saw that it was Carol. I looked at her worried, and tears started to form.

"They called you too?" I ask her, and she nods. She doesn't even stop at the receptionist. She heads right to Finn's room. I look at the receptionist, who I guess recognizes me from the last hundred times I've been here, and just tells me to go ahead. When I get there, I see Carol crying in front of the room. I run up as the doctor leaves

"Carol? What the hell was that about? Where's Kurt?" I ask worried, and a tear or two drops down my cheek

"Kurt's with Burt at the house. I just ran out without saying a word. Anyways, The doctor said that Finn woke up. That's why they called us" she says, and I go to run into his room when she stops me by grabbing my arm

"But then he coded. They tried to revive him, and it didn't work. Time of death was 16:45" she says, and I run into Finn's room. I see them putting the sheet over his head

"No. No, no! Finn, no!" I start screaming, and a nurse comes over and takes me out of the room

"No! Don't take me out! I wanna see him! I wanna see him now! Don't take me out!" I yell, pushing and shoving trying to get out of her grasp. She calls for help from a doctor and another nurse, and they finally take me out of the room and I collapse to the floor. I put my head in my hands and cry hysterically. How could this happen? He was alive, and now, he's gone. How was I gonna tell the glee club? How was I going to keep going without him? How would any of us keep going without him?

The Next Day
Kurt's POV:

I walked into McKinley, and it felt different. It felt empty. Well, more empty then usual. Ever since I got the news, I've been numb. There's nothing I can do to fix this feeling. Rachel says she's not coming to school for the next couple of days, so that leaves me basically alone. It's a good thing that Blaine agreed to taking a few days off being at the Warblers practice to come grieve with us. The entire glee club got an email from Mr. Shue, telling them what happened to Finn. Most likely, when I walk into glee club, it'll be silent. While everyone else is in their normal classes, Principal Figgins Gave us permission to be in glee club all day and just deal with this the way we always do. I walk into the glee club, and as I said, it was silent. It wasn't like I walked into the room and it magically was silent, it's like they weren't talking at all before

"You guys haven't spoken one word have you?" I ask them, and they all nod. "Do you all regret not seeing them at the hospital now?" I ask them, and sit at my seat. Blaine walks in, and I have a tiny smile. He comes and sits next to me, and then our expressions go back to the way they were. It felt nice to smile though. It was the first time in a long time I smiled. It may have been tiny, but it was a smirk. Mr. Shue walked in with Santana, and she looked like she had been crying.

"Okay guys. I know that it's been a tough couple of hours. I would like to thank you all for showing up and being here. Rachel's taking a couple of days off to get herself in order. She was very upset at the hospital" he says, and my eyes start to tear up. I look back at the entire glee club, and they are all in tears. Some, are even letting their tears fall.

"Now, I figured that we could handle this like we always do. By singing. This will just be for us. This will be our special moment. So, with that said, whoever wants to come up and sing, can." He says, and sits down. For the first few seconds, everyone looks around, not wanting to get up and sing. To be honest, I don't know how anybody could. But, despite how upset we all are, Mercedes gets up and starts to speak

"I remember when Finn sang this to Quinn's baby, who turned out to be Puck's. He said it helped him out. To deal with it. So, I thought that I could sing this so that we could deal with this, and help us out" She says, and the music begins

[Mercedes:]
Oh, why you look so sad?
Tears are in your eyes
Come on and come to me now
Don't be ashamed to cry
Let me see you through
'Cause I've seen the dark side too
When the night falls on you
You don't know what to do
Nothing you confess
Could make me love you less

I'll stand by you, I'll stand by you
Won't let nobody hurt you
I'll stand by you
So if you're mad, get mad
Don't hold it all inside
Come on and talk to me now

Hey, what you got to hide?
I get angry too
Well I'm a lot like you
When you're standing at the crossroads
Don't know which path to choose
Let me come along
'Cause even if you're wrong

[Mercedes with New Directions:]
I'll stand by you, I'll stand by you
Won't let nobody hurt you
I'll stand by you
Take me in into your darkest hour
And I'll never desert you
I'll stand by you
Whoa
[Mercedes:]
And when...
When the night falls on you, baby
You're feeling all alone
You won't be on your own

[Mercedes and New Directions (Mercedes):]
I'll stand by you, (Oh)

[New Directions (Mercedes):]
I'll stand by you, (I'll stand by you)
Won't let nobody hurt you (Nobody hurt you)
I'll stand by you

[Mercedes and New Directions:]
Take me in, into your darkest hour

[New Directions (Mercedes):]
And I'll never desert you (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
I'll stand by you, (Yeah)
I'll stand by you
(Won't let nobody hurt you) Won't let nobody hurt you
(No, no, no, no) I'll stand by you

[Mercedes and New Directions (Mercedes):]
Take me in, into your darkest hour
And I'll never desert you (I'll ever desert you)

[New Directions (Mercedes):]
I'll stand by you, I'll stand by you (I'll stand by you)
Won't let nobody hurt you (No, no, no)
I'll stand by you (I'll stand by you)

When Mercedes finishes singing, there wasn't a dry eye in the room.

"Mr. Shue?" I ask

"Yeah Kurt?"

"I would like to sing a song. To just, get all of my feelings out while I can." I say, and he nods. Mercedes sits down, and I just stand there

"Now, I know that you're all expecting me to break down and cry. Or, maybe you're all expecting me to feel nothing at all. Say something about how he died. Say something on how I'm so freaking disappointed in the people that didn't visit him in the hospital. But I'm not. Because I frankly don't care about how he died. I care about how he lived. How he lived everyday to the fullest. We were the people he lived the most besides his family. We owe it to him, to not remember him lying dead in a hospital bed. But to remember him, alive and well, smiling and making us all laugh. This is for you Finn. This is for my brother. But, I'll need Puck's help with this one" I say, and Puck looks at me confused and walks up to me

"Kurt, I'm not in the right mindset to sing right now." He says

"Puck, please just do this for me. I can't do this alone" I say with pleading eyes

"Fine. I'll do it" He says, and pulls up a stool and his guitar. I whisper to him what song to play, and he starts playing, with Brad playing the piano as well.

[Kurt]
It's been a long day without you, my friend
And I'll tell you all about it when I see you again
We've come a long way from where we began
Oh I'll tell you all about it when I see you again
When I see you again

[Puck]
Damn, who knew all the planes we flew
Good things we've been through
That I'll be standing right here
Talking to you about another path I
Know we loved to hit the road and laugh
But something told me that it wouldn't last
Had to switch up look at things different see the bigger picture
Those were the days hard work forever pays now I see you in a better place
How could we not talk about family when family's all that we got?
Everything I went through you were standing there by my side
And now you gonna be with me for the last ride

[Kurt]
It's been a long day without you, my friend
And I'll tell you all about it when I see you again
We've come a long way from where we began
Oh I'll tell you all about it when I see you again
When I see you again

[Puck]
First you both go out your way
And the vibe is feeling strong and what's
Small turn to a friendship, a friendship
Turn into a bond and that bond will never
Be broken and the love will never get lost
And when brotherhood come first then the line
Will never be crossed established it on our own
When that line had to be drawn and that line is what
We reach so remember me when I'm gone
How could we not talk about family when family's all that we got?
Everything I went through you were standing there by my side
And now you gonna be with me for the last ride

[Kurt]
So let the light guide your way hold every memory
As you go and every road you take will always lead you home
It's been a long day without you, my friend
And I'll tell you all about it when I see you again
We've come a long way from where we began
Oh I'll tell you all about it when I see you again
When I see you again

At the end of the song, I was in tears. I looked over at Puck, and I saw him wiping away a tear, and trying to hold in many others

"I'm sorry. I can't" I say, and walk out of the choir room
