Hey guys a songfic to "Tell Him" by Celine Dion and Barbara Streisand. Seems strange I know but just go with it. Thanks.
I do not own the characters or the song used in this fanfic.
OK so this is set while Scaramouche is changing into her rebel outfit. I know that Meat is seen on stage all the time but just imagine she's helping Scara pick out some clothes…….
"Look at all this stuff you have Meat! You just pick it up?" Scara asked Meat, with a look of astonishment on her face.
"Yeah Hen, us lasses do," Meat answered with a very tick Scottish accent, which Scara was only just getting used to.
"So Hen, wha's going on be'ween ya and the Dreamer?" Meat asked Scara.
"What!?! Nothing Meat!! Nothing's going on between me and Gazza, and ain't gonna happen either!!"
"Ooooh you feisty 'bout that ain't ya? Well if you say so. You 'ave no feelin's at all?"
"Well course I like him a little bit. We escaped together, so that counts for something, right?" Scara said to Gaz, hoping for a bit of advise on the whole Gaz front.
"Yeah I s'pose, but think. How do ya actually feel bout him?" Meat asked, trying to get a response.
Scara didn't know how to say what she felt. The words finally came to her but and she sang her heart out.
"I'm scared,
So afraid to show that I care
Will he think me weak
If I tremble when I speak
Ooooh
What if
There's another one he's thinking of
Maybe he's in love
I'd feel like a fool
Life can be so cruel
I don't know what to do."
Meat answers her in song thinking of her own journey with Brit.
"I've been there
With my heart out in my hand
But what you must understand
You can't let the chance
To love him pass you by"
Together they sang,
"Tell him
Tell him that the sun and moon
Rise in his eyes
Reach out to him
And whisper
Tender words so soft and sweet
Hold him close to feel his heart beat
Love will be the gift you give yourself"
Meat tries to explain, "Touch him (Scara "Ooooh")
With the gentleness you feel inside
Your love can't be denied
The truth with set you free
You'll have what's meant to be
All in time you'll see."
Scara sings in anguish "I love him (Then show him)
Of that much I can be sure (Hold him close to you)
I don't think I could endure
If I let him walk away
When I have so much to say"
Together they both think of the loves of their lives and sing,
"Tell him
Tell him that the sun and moon
Rise in his eyes
Reach out to him
And whisper
Tender words so soft and sweet
Hold him close to feel his heartbeat"
Meat tells her, "Love will be the gift you give yourself"
Scaramouche is starting to realise the depth of what she feels for Gaz,
"Love is a light that surely glows
In the hearts of those who know
It's a steady flame that grows."
Meat almost begs her,
"Feed the fire with all the passion you can show
Tonight love will assume its place
It's memory time can not erase"
Together, but apart, singing the same words but with different reasons. Meat needs to tell Brit more often of her love. Scara still needs to show Gazza and then tell him how she feels,
"Your faith will lead love where it has to go!
Tell him
Tell him that the sun and moon
Rise in his eyes
Reach out to him
And whisper
Whisper words so soft and sweet
Hold him close to feel his heartbeat,"
Meat repeats "Love will be the gift you give yourself"
Together with every feeling they possess they sing the last line
"Never let him go."
