A Warbler Christmas
Christmas was certainly in the air in Ohio. The streets were decorated variously with lights, people were shopping for presents for their relatives who they dread of seeing, and the only thing that could make it better, is if Ohio was covered with a big soft blanket of—
"SNOW!"
"Go? Okay, here goes the curtain!"
"NO YOU IDIOT! I SAID SNOW!"
"This is a disaster," Blaine noted as Thad and Jeff argued in the Dalton Auditorium.
"This production has to be perfect! If anything, do it right, or you will not have any presents this year!" Thad said.
"I will too! I've been good and Santa will bring me something!" Jeff said holding on to a rope. Thad rolled his eyes and took a deep breath.
"Okay…okay. Let's just try this again. Make sure it's good before Wes comes back and kills us all," Thad said taking his place offstage. Jeff readjusted the curtain, and the other actors took their places.
"Go."
After the trainwreck rehearsal, Blaine quickly jotted down gift ideas. His Christmas shopping will be completed by tomorrow…or else. As he waited at the Lima Bean, Blaine finished writing poems for everyone. He wrote them for family, friends, and even some teachers. But there was one person he just couldn't find words to describe.
Kurt.
Though, yes they have been dating for a year almost and both loved one another with all their hearts, he just couldn't find the right words. He tapped his pen on the table, but was startled and immediately hid the poems once Kurt sat down across from him.
"Happy Holidays!" Kurt said cheerily.
"Same to you," Blaine said with a heartwarming smile.
"I just finished my Christmas shopping, and you would not believe what I bought!" Kurt said in frustration, "I know this may seem creepy, but I got something for Jenna." Blaine's eyes widened as he realized he forgot about Jenna.
"Oh Crap!" he exclaimed.
"What?"
"I forgot to pick up Jenna at McKinley," Blaine stood up, "do you mind coming with me?"
"Blaine, I was just there for 8 hours—
"Great!" Blaine took Kurt's hand and they walked to his car.
Jenna was in the auditorium having an argument with her orchestra teacher.
"What? You think I'm magical and can play one-hundred and sixty measures like that?" Jenna yelled, snapping her fingers for emphasis.
"No, I just wish you would practice more!" the teacher yelled. Blaine and Kurt stood in the aisle watching intently.
"Good to see you project your voice," Blaine said. Jenna and her teacher both looked at him. Jenna turned back, "I'm not done with this." She walked offstage to her brother.
"What was that about?" Kurt asked.
"Like I said, she thinks we're magic." The three left McKinley into the chilly Ohio weather.
"If it's so cold, where's the snow?" Blaine asked as they walked.
"Please, I'm glad there's no snow," Jenna said, "it's cold enough already."
"It's not Christmas without the snow," Blaine noted. He turned to Kurt, "the Warblers and I are having a little get together after the show. Would you want to come?"
"Absolutely. What play are you doing?" Kurt asked.
"An original written by Thad and Nick. We really don't know what it's about," Blaine shrugged.
"I'll be there."
"Thad, I swear to God, if you make me go out like this I will kill you!" David shouted.
"No one else wanted to be the fairy! We need someone! Just put on a wig, and no one will know you who you are," Thad said persuasively.
"No."
"Come on!"
"No! Why can't Jenna be the fairy? She's a girl!"
"She's already ironically an angel!" Thad said. Blaine walked by and saw David holding a pink dress. He gave him a look.
"Ask him!" David said before walking away. Blaine turned to Thad.
"Why?"
"We needed an extra person and I tried bribing the other Warbler's sisters and some girls from Crawford, but they won't do it!" Thad explained.
"Then take the fairy out and use the angel instead," Blaine said, "Jenna wants to work on her acting."
Thad sighed, "alright. She just needs to learn a few extra lines." He pulled out a copy of the script, "I'll highlight the parts and give it to you during Warbler's practice."
"Alright. Just one more question," Blaine said, "is Jeff supposed be hanging from the ceiling?" Thad's eyes widened and he immediately walked away to find the blonde.
"WHAT THE HELL!"
Sure enough, Jeff was hanging upside down from some wires.
"Who let him do this?" Thad asked. Out of the corner of his eye, he noticed Nick hide behind a curtain.
"Nicholas Duval, get over here." Nick walked out from behind and faced the angered Warbler.
"Yes?"
"Why did you let him do that?" Thad asked.
"I tried stopping him!" Nick said in defense.
"Then why is he upside down!"
"Obviously he didn't listen!"
"Oh this is just great…"
"I'm the only one who has ever…"
"HEY!" came from Jeff. The two looked up.
"Can someone get me down?"
What'd ya think? Don't ask about the poem thing, it will be talked about in later chapters :) This is also more of like an introduction-ish thing and the other chapters will be more interesting.
