-Kurt and Blaine have broken up. And it's tearing New Directions apart! So, they come up with a plan to get them back together.-
"WELL MAYBE I LIKE TO WEAR GIRLS JACKETS!"
"WELL MAYBE YOU JUST WANNA BE A GIRL? HUH?"
"I HATE YOU!"
The members of the New Directions watched as Kurt and Blaine went through another scream fest. Kurt's face was red, and Blaine's voice was hoarse. They had been screaming at each other since the meeting had started, and no one was brave enough to stop them. Even Mr. Schuester sat in silence, eyes wide.
"FINE! Be that way. I don't care. I don't care about you. I'm leaving." Blaine stormed out of the room.
"Right! Because that's all you're good at! LEAVING!" Kurt yelled. He turned, and saw everyone staring at him wide eyed. "What? Screw all of you." Kurt huffed, and fled the room as well.
"Ok. We have a serious problem." Rachel turned to the others.
"I'll say. Those two need to work out their issues." Santana squeezed Brittany's hand.
"I agree." Mr. Schue got up, and went to the front.
"Mr. Schue, we need to get the two of them in a room together, and have them work it out." Puck said.
"Why are they even fighting? Does anyone know?" Sam asked.
"It has to do with what Kurt was planning on wearing to one of their dates. He was wearing a hot pink designer jacket. I gotta say, it looked really good on him. But Blaine said he shouldn't wear it, because it was too girly, and he'd just be stirring up trouble. Kurt flipped, and the screaming started." Finn sighed. "I want it to stop."
"Ok, so I'm seriously hating on Blaine right now. But the two of them are usually so understanding with each other. Why was it that suddenly they snapped?" Mercedes looked at Finn.
"I don't know." He sighed again.
"Ok. We need to get them back together. Or, at least we need them to stop fighting." Tina bit her lower lip. "How are we gonna do that?"
"Glee club assignment. How about next week we make it romantic love duets?" Mr. Schue smiled.
"We could put Kurt and Blaine together in the same group, and have them sing a super-romantic song to each other. And the rest of us could be put randomly into groups, and sing super-cheesy love songs." Quinn suggested.
"That could work. If the other couples are chosen at random, they'll think it was just coincidence they were put together." Rachel nodded.
"Ok guys. Over the weekend I'll find the most romantic love song, and the six cheesiest love songs. On Monday, I'll randomly draw all of your names, making sure that Kurt and Blaine are put together. Then the rest of you will get the cheesy songs, and Kurt and Blaine will get the romantic one." Mr. Schuester wrote something on the board
OGKBT: Love songs.
"Operation get Klaine back together: Love songs."
~Monday~
Kurt walked into glee-club and sat down as far away from Blaine as humanly possible. Mr. Schue was late, again, and Kurt took his iPhone out of his pocket. He had a message from Mercedes.
Boo, I'm always here for you if you need me. My shoulders are certainly big enough to cry on. XOXOXO Cedes.
Kurt grinned at this. Just then, Mr. Schue walked in.
"This weeks assignment is love songs."A collective groan came up from the ND members.
"Mr. Schuester, there's not a lot of love in this group right now, past Tina and Mike." Sam gestured go the Asian couple who were holding hands, and staring into eachother's eyes.
"Well, yes. But in a competition, chemistry needs to happen at all times. You need to sing as if you're singing to the one person you love more than anything else. Even if that's not always the case, you have to have the emotion. So, I have put all of your names into the hat, and will be randomly drawing out names for pairs. Then, I will assign each couple a love song. You must perform it in front of everyone, and be convincing in your love." Mr. Schuester took out the hat."First. Rachel... And... Artie!"
"Seriously? No offense Rachel, but you really annoy me." Artie grumbled.
"You get what I give you. No complaints." Mr. Schue glared at Artie."Next is Santana and Quinn."
"Lauren and Tina."
"Finn and Mercedes."
"Sam and Brittany."
"Kurt and Blaine."
"Puck and Mike."
"Alright. Now I will randomly choose songs for you all to sing."
"Rachel and Artie will sing, Everything I do (I Do It For You) by Brian Adams"
"Santana and Quinn will sing, My Heart Will Go On by Celine Dion."
"Lauren and Tina, you two get to sing Hopelessly Devoted To You by Olivia Newton John."
"Finn and Mercedes will sing Tonight I Celebrate My Love by Peabo Bryson & Roberta Flack."
"Sam and Brittany have Light Up My Life by Debby Boone."
"Kurt and Blaine, you two will sing The Way You Look Tonight by Frank Sinatra."
"And Puck and Mike you will sing I Got You Babe by Sonny & Cher."
"This is bogus!" Finn yelled. "I have nothing against you Mercedes, I just can't sing some love song to you!"
"I completely agree white boy." Mercedes huffed.
"I'll see all of you tomorrow. Rachel, Artie, be ready to go."
"Actually Mr. Schue we can go now. We both know the song very well." Rachel beamed.
"Ok. Go ahead." Mr. Schuester sat down next to Santana, as Rachel and Artie walked up to the front. With a nod to the band, Rachel began to sing.
Look into my eyes you will see
What you mean to me
Search your heart search your sou
lAnd when you find me there you'll search no more
Don't tell me it's not worth tryin' for
You can't tell me it's not worth dyin' for
You know it's true
Everything I do I do it for you
Artie sang the next verse, circling around Rachel as he did.
Look into your heart you will find
There's nothin' there to hide
Take me as I am take my life
I would give it all I would sacrifice
Don't tell me it's not worth fightin' for
I can't help it there's nothin' I want more
Ya know it's true
Everything I do I do it for you
They sang the next part together. At one point, Rachel sat on top of the piano, and Artie rolled up next to her.
There's no love like your love
And no other could give more love
There's nowhere unless you're there
All the time all the way
Oh you can't tell me it's not worth tryin' for
I can't help it there's nothin' I want more
I would fight for you I'd lie for you
Walk the wire for you
Ya I'd die for you
Ya know it's true
Everything I do I do it for you
They finished the song, and sat back down
"That was great guys! Awesome. Tomorrow is Santana and Quinn."
~That night~
Blaine sat in his room staring at his phone. He had to sing a romantic duet with Kurt, and he knew Kurt hated him. He had been debating texting Kurt to practice the song since he had gotten home two hours ago. Blaine remembered the last time he and Kurt had "practiced" singing together. He punched his pillow, and grabbed his phone.
I don't wanna do this as much as you don't want to. Just, meet me at the Lima Bean in an hour and we can figure out who's gonna sing which part. -Blaine
He hit send, and fell onto the bed. About five minutes later, not that Blaine was counting, his phone buzzed.
Fine. -K
Blaine sighed. It was going to be a night.
An hour later, Blaine walked into the Lima Bean, and saw Kurt sitting at a table. Their table.
"Hey." Kurt said, as Blaine sat down.
"Hey."
"Look, Blaine. Let's just try to put aside our differences for this assignment, just for the week. We'll get through this stupid assignment, and then go right back to hating each other." Kurt sipped his coffee. He hadn't gotten one for Blaine. Of course, because they were broken up.
"Yeah. Ok." Blaine nodded, and the two of them started discussing the verses.
~Tuesday~
"Santana, Quinn. Show us what you got."
The girls went to the front. Quinn came forward, and the music started.
Every night in my dreams
I see you, I feel you
That is how I know you go on
Far across the distance
And spaces between us
You have come to show you go on
The two girls sang the chorus together, circling the piano.
Near, far, wherever you are
I believe that the heart does go on
Once more you open the door
And you're here in my heart
And my heart will go on and on
Santana sang the next part. She reached out to Quinn, who shot her a sultry look.
Love can touch us one time
And last for a lifetime
And never let go till we're gone
Love was when I loved you
One true time I hold to
In my life we'll always go on
Again, they sang together, circling the piano.
Near, far, wherever you are
I believe that the heart does go on
Once more you open the door
And you're here in my heart
And my heart will go on and on
You're here, there's nothing I fear
And I know that my heart will go on
We'll stay forever this way
You are safe in my heart
And my heart will go on and on
The song ended. Quinn and Santana returned to their seats.
"That was amazing girls! I'm speechless. Just, wow. Lauren and Tina, you sing tomorrow."
~Wednesday~
"Lauren, Tina." The girls walked up, and the music started. They sang the entire song together, staring at each other.
Guess mine is not the first heart broken
My eyes are not the first to cry
I'm not the first to know
There's just no gettin' over you
Hello, I'm just a fool who's willing to
Sit around and wait for you
But baby can't you see
There's nothin' else for me to do
I'm hopelessly devoted to you
But now there's nowhere to hide
Since you pushed my love aside
I'm not in my head
Hopelessly devoted to you
Hopelessly devoted to you
Hopelessly devoted to you
My head is saying "Fool, forget him"
My heart is saying "Don't let go"
Hold on to the end
That's what I intend to do
I'm hopelessly devoted to you
But now there's nowhere to hide
Since you pushed my love aside
I'm not in my head
Hopelessly devoted to you
Hopelessly devoted to you
Hopelessly devoted to youT
hey finished. Mike clapped. Mr. Schuester nodded. "Very good girls! Alright, Finn and Mercedes sing tomorrow."
"Mr. Schue, if it's Ok with you, we'd like to go today. Just to get it over with." Finn said. Mr. Schue nodded.
"Let's get this show on the road!" Mr. Schuester cued Mercedes and Finn to the front. The music started, and Finn stepped forward.
Tonight I celebrate my love for you
It seems the natural thing to do
Tonight no one's gonna find us
We'll leave the world behind us
When I make love to you
Mercedes sang the next part, sidling up next to Finn as she sang.
Tonight I celebrate my love for you
And hope that deep inside you'll feel it too
Tonight our spirits will be climbing
To a sky filled up with diamonds
When I make love to you, tonight
Tonight I celebrate my love for you
And that midnight sun is gonna come shining through
They sang together, face to face, belting the lyrics.
Tonight there'll be no distance between us
What I want most to do, is to get close to you
Tonight
Tonight I celebrate my love for you
And soon this old world will seem brand new
Tonight we will both discover how friends turn into lovers
When I make love to you
Tonight I celebrate my love to you
And that midnight sun is gonna come shining through
Tonight there'll be no distance between us
What I want most to do, is to get close to you
Tonight I celebrate my love for you
Tonight
They finished, both blushing. Mercedes hurriedly ran back to her seat.
"Told you this was bogus. Seriously Mr. Schue? That song?" Finn grumbled, sitting down.
"Well... Sam and Brittany you two go tomorrow." Mr. Schuester ended the meeting.
~Later that Day~
Kurt let Blaine into the house. His Dad and Finn were both at the shop, and Carole had a class at the community center. Kurt had insisted that at least one person stay to support him when Blaine came over, but they had all claimed they were too busy.
"So, just sit over there. You know your part, right?" Kurt sat on the other side if the room.
"Yeah." Blaine didn't meet Kurt's eyes.
"So... I start." Kurt began to sing, softly. Blaine sang next, just as softly. They finished, both looking anywhere but at each other.
"We should figure our some sort of choreography." Blaine finally said, after about 2 minutes of awkward silence.
"Yeah. Let's, um, let's do that." Kurt got up, and Blaine followed.
~Thursday~
"Guys. I realize that I'm going to run out of days for all of you to sing, so Puck and Mike, you guys will have to go today as well."
"That's cool Mr. Schue. We're good to go." Puck shrugged.
"That's great. But first, Sam and Brittany." The two went up and the music started. Sam began to sing.
So many nights I'd sit by my window
Waiting for someone to sing me his song
So many dreams I kept deep inside me
Alone in the dark but now you've come along
They sang the chorus together. Sam twirled Brittany around.
And you light up my life
You give me hope to carry on
You light up my days
And fill my nights with song
Brittany broke away from Sam, and sang the next verse.
Rollin' at sea, adrift on the water
Could it be finally I'm turnin' for home
Finally a chance to say "Hey, I love you"
Never again to be all alone
Again, they sang the chorus together, swaying back and forth.
And you light up my life
You give me hope to carry onYou light up my daysAnd fill my nights with song
They alternated lines on the next part, circling each other
'Cause you, you light up my life
You give me hope to carry on
You light up my days
And fill my nights with song
And they sang together again, staring right at each other
It can't be wrong
When it feels so right
'Cause you
You light up my life
The song ended, and Sam gestured to Brittany, who bowed.
"Very good you two! I could feel the emotion. It was very convincing. Alright, Puck and Mike."
Mike went behind the piano, and Puck grabbed his guitar. He began to sing, and throughout the song, Mike danced around the piano.
They say we're young and we don't know
We won't find out until we grow
Well I don't know if all that's true
'Cause you got me, and baby I got you
Babe
I got you babe
I got you babe
They say our love won't pay the rent
Before it's earned, our money's all been spent
I guess that's so, we don't have a pot
But at least I'm sure of all the things we got
Babe
I got you babe
I got you babe
I got flowers in the spring
I got you to wear my ring
And when I'm sad, you're a clown
And if I get scared, you're always around
Don't let them say your hair's too long
'Cause I don't care, with you I can't go wrong
Then put your little hand in mine
There ain't no hill or mountain we can't climb
Babe
I got you babe
I got you babe
I got you to hold my hand
I got you to understand
I got you to walk with me
I got you to talk with me
I got you to kiss goodnight
I got you to hold me tight
I got you, I won't let go
I got you to love me so
I got you babe
I got you babe
I got you babe
I got you babe
I got you babe
Puck finished singing, and Mike finished dancing.
"Alright. Kurt and Blaine sing tomorrow."
~Friday~
"Ok boys. Show us what you got."
Kurt huffed, and marched to the front of the room. Blaine followed, and sat at the piano. He began to play, and Kurt sang.
Some day, when I'm awfully low
When the world is cold
I will feel a glow just thinking of you...
And the way you look tonight.
Blaine sang the next part from the piano.
Yes you're lovely, with your smile so warm
And your cheeks so soft
There is nothing for me but to love you
And the way you look tonight.
They sang together. Blaine got up from the piano, and was replaced by Brad. The two boys circled around each other.
With each word your tenderness grows
Tearing my fear apart...
And that laugh that wrinkles your nose
It touches my foolish heart.
Lovely ...
Never, ever change.
Keep that breathless charm.
Won't you please arrange it?
'Cause I love you ...
Just the way you look tonight.
Kurt turned, and looked at Blaine.
Mm, Mm, Mm, Mm
Just the way you look to-night.
They stared at each other, neither one saying a word. The entire room was silent.
"I'm sorry." Kurt whispered. He started walking back to his seat, but Blaine stopped him.
"I love you. Just the way you look tonight." Blaine kissed him. It took Kurt all of 2.5 seconds to kiss him back. Not that anyone in the room was counting.
~The End~
