Kurt frowned and started scrubbing even harder at the grease spot, hoping that it would decide to come out soon. But this wasn't anything like washing and waxing and detailing the X-Jet. First, if he scratched the wall, Logan wouldn't absolutely murder him. He'd probably pat Kurt on the back for it, if he were still here.
His focus on the grease spot allowed Sakura to sneak up on him without Kurt really noticing. He was mad at the punishment and mad at the spot, which took most of his focus away. So he was a little surprised when he realized she was talking to him, despite it looking like she couldn't help.
But he really couldn't be mad at her. Even if he had been asleep, everyone had been rebelling against Landel, right? If he got punished for it, well... that was how it went.
"Hey, it's okay," Kurt said, smiling weakly. "You were just doing what you thought was right, yeah?"
He scooted a little closer to Sakura, miming as though he had to clean a part of the wall closer to her. "But do you know what's going on? What happened? I heard something going down so I just stayed in my room."
