"LOVE & THE GENTLE HEART ARE ONE THING
4. THEY ARE MAGICAL"
Multiship
Emma had been accosted by one of the female teachers, so as they had started talking, Carl had turned to look around, and there he saw that blonde kid… Sam, if he remembered correctly, climbing on the stage and handing a card to the pianist, who signalled the band. Then he’d stood there, singing “Straight from the Heart.” It wasn’t so much the singing part that intrigued him; he was in Glee Club, of course he’d be singing. But the thing with the card… So when Emma came back, he had to ask. “Sorry about that,” she told him, indicating the woman who’d moved off to attend to the students.
“Hey, don’t worry about it,” he promised, then pointed to the stage. “What are they up to exactly?”
“Who’s they?” she asked, not sure which part he was referring to.
“The kid handed the piano guy a card,” he explained.
“Oh, right. Well, people bought songs, that is, they made a request and gave money which will go toward paying the club’s way to Regionals, she explained, then, “I completely forgot to tell you…” she admitted. “I’m sorry.” He just looked at her, like he had an idea in his head, and he gave her his punch cup; he’s served himself from the bowl… she refused. Holding the cup now, she just had to stare and wonder how sanitary it could be, but then she realized… “Carl?” she called, seeing him dash off toward the stage. She put the cup down a table, probably committing one of her primary fears, that someone else might end up drinking it, before scurrying along. She stopped midway, when she saw that Carl had gone up to Will… she wasn’t going to go up there and make things more complicated.
“Hey, Will, can I talk to you for a second?” Carl asked him. Schuester looked up, as though to say ‘What am I going to be accused of this time?’ “Emma just told me about your song ‘auction,’ and I was wondering if the stage was open to the Glee Club only, or if a… chaperone could offer his services,” he asked, ending with a smile. Will looked at him for a moment, unsure what to say. He looked to the side and halfway across the gym he could see Emma, looking in their direction though trying not to look too obvious. So, with a sigh, he reached into the bowl, pulling out a card. He almost hoped it would be something a little embarrassing, but… no… it was perfect; had to be.
“Here,” he gave Carl the card; he looked at it and was evidently pleased by the choice. “Just hand it to Brad up there and he’ll take care of everything,” he explained, just as Sam finished and got off the stage.
“Thanks,” Carl tapped at the finder with his knuckle before doing what Will had told him to. He took to the stage, handed the card over -Brad signalled the number eight - then had the strangest feeling like the moment he reached the spotlight, one couple in the crowd had stopped dancing… Indeed, Santana’s ‘Carl-dar’ had started pinging, and Puck had no chance of moving her until the hottest dentist in the world removed himself from that stage. So he wandered off, just as the music started and Carl took to the mic.
[C] “Though I've tried before to tell her / Of the feelings I have for her in my heart / Every time that I come near her / I just lose my nerve / As I've done from the start”
Artie and Brittany hadn’t made it to the dance floor yet. They sat nearby though, waiting. Rather than having her sit on the floor, which she would have done, he had her perched in his lap, silently waiting. But when the second song started, he saw her ears perk up, then her face… she wanted to go now. She got up, looking back to him. “Come on, let’s go!” she insisted.
“I don’t know, are you sure?” he asked her, and she frowned, confused.
“Why not?” He didn’t answer, which left her to go on. “We’ve danced together plenty of times before, why not now?” He wasn’t sure what she was referring to at first, but then… He supposed they did pair up a lot of the time… in Glee Club, in group numbers… She extended her hand a little further, hoping he’d take it. “Don’t worry so much, just do your thing,” she shrugged, unworried. He smirked.
“Okay,” he nodded, taking her hand. She grinned, and they headed to the middle, with the dancing couples. He wasn’t sure at first what she intended to do, but clearly it didn’t matter so much what either of them did as long as they both did it… they were dancing.
[C] “Every little thing she does is magic / Everything she do just turns me on / Even though my life before was tragic / Now I know my love for her goes on
Do I have to tell the story / Of a thousand rainy days since we first met / It's a big enough umbrella / But it's always me that ends up getting wet”
She absolutely mystified him… There wasn’t really any other way to put it. He never knew what to expect, not that he wanted it differently. She believed in him so much that she’d given up her own ‘wish to the mall Santa’ in favor of his getting something he never would have hoped for, especially after disappointments of recent times... It wouldn’t have seemed so much if not for knowing how much she still trusted in the figure of Santa and his ‘powers.’ And he’d played the game of trying to humor and protect her just like the rest of them, but then... He had no idea what had happened, but there had come their wishes come true, in some form at least.
Of course it had made him think back to... that last time, the one where he’d gotten his hopes up and then... they were dashed... and he had to sit there and watch the girl he wanted to dance with, dancing with someone else... So much had changed since then... and they were all happy, so... what more could he possibly ask for?
[C] “Every little thing she does is magic / Everything she do just turns me on / Even though my life before was tragic / Now I know my love for her goes on
I resolve to call her up a thousand times a day / And ask her if she'll marry me in some old fashioned way / But my silent fears have gripped me / Long before I reach the phone / Long before my tongue has tripped me / Must I always be alone?”
She was just glad to have made it this far... A couple months back, they had gone and inexplicably split, for something she’d later realized had been a misunderstanding... common territory for her... As if her fears hadn’t been big enough, having to go out there without the magic comb, now it had apparently cost her Artie... She quickly got over the ‘true origins of the comb’s magic’, and they were good again... For something that had started off in a completely different place, the affection she had for him had been absolutely unexpected.
But then she’d wish... She’d wish that happiness didn’t come at the expense of another... She missed Santana. Things had just not been the same between them , the last little while, and maybe it was just her being her, but she didn’t understand why. And it left her isolated.
The song picked up, and so did the dancing pair, all over again. Artie barely had time to somehow realize she was aiming to do one of those spins ‘like in Titanic,’ where they held hands, arms outstretched facing each other, before spinning madly on and on... He just imagined her letting go and him flying off like a shotput. She quickly got over it, which had him smiling.
[C] “Every little thing she does is magic / Everything she do just turns me on / Even though my life before was tragic / Now I know my love for her goes on
Every little thing she does is magic / Everything she do just turns me on / Even though my life before was tragic / Now I know my love for her goes on”
Emma felt like a groupie at a rock concert... Except unlike a real one, she got to go home with the rock star... She stood amid the pack of dancing teenagers, not paying attention to them at all.. She just clapped and bopped along for her guy...
[C] “Every little thing, every little thing / Every little thing, every little thing / Every little, every little, every little, / Every little she does, every little she does / Every little she does, every little she does / That she does is magic
Every little thing, every little thing / Every little thing she do is / Magic, magic, magic / Magic, magic, magic”
Carl ended the song by sending off a kiss in the air, off to his wife. He smirked, seeing her reach her hand and ‘catch’ the flying kiss, holding her closed hand to her heart. He got off the stage, tipping an imaginary hat to Will, who still stood nearby, bowl in hand. For a split second he’d been thinking about reaching in the bowl himself, but then... He felt the bowl tug as a hand had slipped inside... it was Holly.
“What are you doing?” he asked. She pulled out a card.
“Looking for a duet,” she explained, reading the card and putting it back, fishing another. “For the both of us, and...” she opened the card and smirked. “I think I got one,” she showed him the card.
