Author's Note: This was a response to the Karaoke Jake's game.

Wanted

Sam and Jason are sitting in Jake's canoodling and Carly is drowning her sorrows while pretending to be ok with Shawn... Sam begs Jason to do a number, and unable to hold out against her incessant whining, agrees to sing the song she's picked. As Jason goes up to sing, she tosses an already distraught Carly a nasty smirk.

Jason clears his throat and begins singing with his eyes closed so he can ignore the crowd that his fiancé has forced him up in front of.

You know I'd fall apart without you
I don't know how you do what you do
'Cause everything that don't make sense about me
Makes sense when I'm with you

He opens his eyes as the words begin to register and looks at the only woman who they accurately describe. He realizes he is looking at Carly and before she can look up, he closes his eyes again.

Like everything that's green, girl I need you
But it's more than one and one makes two
Put aside the math and the logic of it
You gotta know you want it too

Only closing his eyes isn't helping because with every word he sings, images of their life together fill his head.

'Cause I wanna wrap you up
Wanna kiss your lips
I wanna make you feel wanted
And I wanna call you mine
Wanna hold you hand forever
Never let you forget it
Yeah, I wanna make you feel wanted

He flashes to her weddings to AJ, Sonny, Alcazar, and Jax, and opens his eyes unconsciously to find her looking right at him

Anyone can tell you you're pretty(Yeah)
You get that all the time, I know you do
But your beauty's deeper than the makeup
And I wanna show you what I see tonight

When I wrap you up
When I kiss your lips
I wanna make you feel wanted
And I wanna call you mine
Wanna hold you hand forever
Never let you forget it
'Cause baby I wanna make you feel wanted

Their eyes lock and he continues singing the words to a song he never realized he knew... Words that had been in his heart all along.

As good as you make me feel
I wanna make you feel better
Better than your fairy tales
Better than your best dreams
You're more than everything I need
You're all I ever wanted
All I ever wanted

And I just wanna wrap you up
Wanna kiss your lips
I wanna make you feel wanted
And I wanna call you mine
Wanna hold you hand forever
Never let you forget it
Yeah, I wanna make you feel wanted
Yeah, baby, I wanna make you feel... wanted'

Cause you'll always be wanted

As the last words leave his mouth, he realizes they've both moved to stand in the middle of Jake's. Unable to release himself from his trance, he kisses her with all of the love and passion in his soul. Just as they are coming up for air, a voice bursts their little world.

"Jason?" Sam whimpers staring at them holding her lug nut for dear life.

The last two lines run through his head again: Yeah, baby I wanna make you feel... wanted... Cause you'll always be wanted
