Please Don't Break My Heart
Chapter 2: Because Of You
Now's the time, Christian thought happily. My first step to a new life.
He hesitantly walked into the choir room where the club was waiting for the one person who actually signed up with a name that sounded remotely real. They all smiled at him as he stood in front of them.
A man who had to be Mr. Schuester stepped forward with a smile and a handshake and introduced himself as Mr. Schue. He turned to the club and said, "This is Christian and he'd like to join the club." He turned back to Christian. "Do you know what you're going to sing?" He asked.
"Yes." He moved to stand in front of the piano. "I'm going to sing Because Of You by Kelly Clarkson."
A dark haired girl piped up from the back row, "Oh! Better watch out Kurt! Looks like you got competition for the clubs leading lady!"
The boy she'd called Kurt replied, "Be quiet, Satan—Oops!" A hand fluttered up to his mouth in mock astonishment, "I mean Santana." He added. With a smile he waved his hand for me to start to sing.
The music started and Christian took a deep, shuddering breath, and started to sing.
I will not make the same mistakes that you did.
I will not let myself,
Cause my heart so much misery
I will not break the way you did,
You fell so hard.
I've learned the hard way
To never let it get that far!
This song fit his old relationship to a tee. It hurt to think about it.
Because of you,
I never stray too far from the sidewalk!
Because of you
I learned to play on the safe side,
So I don't get hurt!
Because of you
I find it hard to trust,
Not only me
But everyone around me
Because of you…
I am afraid.
He thought of every day with Thomas, how scared he was near the end… how hard it was to hide the bruises.
I lose my way,
And it's not too long before you,
Point it out.
I cannot cry,
Because I know that's weakness
In your eyes.
I'm forced to fake a smile,
A laugh, every day of my life.
My heart can't possibly break,
When it wasn't even whole to start with!
A single tear slipped from his eye before it could be stopped. He quickly wiped it away and continued singing.
Because of you,
I never stray too far from the sidewalk…
Because of you,
I learned to play on the safe side
So I don't get hurt!
Because of you I find it hard to trust
Not only me
But everyone round me.
Because of you…
I am afraid.
I watched you die
I heard you cry
Every night in your sleep.
I was so young
You should have known
Better than to lean on me!
You never thought
Of anyone else
You just saw your pain.
His voice shook as he struggled to not cry in front of the room full of strangers.
And now I cry in the middle of the night,
For the same damn thing!
Because of you…
I never stray… to far from the sidewalk.
Because of you,
I learned to play on the safe side,
So I don't get hurt.
Because of you
I try my hardest just to
Forget everything!
Because of you,
I don't know how
To let anyone else in!
Because of you,
I'm ashamed of my life
Because it's empty
Because of you… I am… afraid
Because of you…
…Because of you…
16 pairs of tear-filled eyes looked back at Christian as he breathed deeply trying to fight for control of his tears. A surprisingly loud cheer came up from the group as Mr. S stood up and held his hand out to Christian. "Welcome to New Directions." He said with a smile.
