Can't take my eyes off of you Chapter 4: Unexpected duo, a glee fanfic

A/N: Hey everyone! I saw that many viewers read the fanfic since the third chapter's publication but no many reviews. Come on don't be so shy :P. As usual, enjoy!

# McKinley High School – Hallway

The bell is ringing, everybody goes out from the classrooms. Dave is waiting for Kurt next to the door, Azimio still doesn't understand why he has to do this.

Come on bro! The fag told you that you can stop doing this, says Azimio.

Yeah but Figgins said that if he has a problem I'm gonna have too, answers Dave.

So you have to play the hero? Azimio imitating Kurt. Oh Davy, you are my amaaaaaaziiing hero!

Shut up Az'! I'm not gay!

Oh Davy protect me! I need you!

Stop it right now that's not funny! Shouts Karofsky.

Azimio frowns at Dave, looking suspicious and leaves him without saying any word. Shaking his head, Karofsky thinks about why Kurt has been so different now, he used to be the proud and shy boy who won't hurt or threaten anyone... The jock wonders what happened in that Dalton Academy.

Back, says Kurt coming from his classroom.

Ok, let's go to the next session, replies Dave.

Thanks Karofsky but I think we can handle it, smirks Puck.

Looking behind him, Dave Karofsky can see Noah Puckerman and Finn Hudson crossing their arms. It is an evidence that the two friends don't want David to be Kurt's bodyguard. Finn comes closer to Kurt who makes a weird face.

Sorry, but I only can protect a lady at a time, sighs Karofsky.

Wrong, it's up to us to protect the princess, answers the Mohawk boy his hands on Kurt's shoulders.

Just get off of me! Shouts Kurt and facing at the three boys. I'm not a lady and neither a princess. I'll go on my own like I always did! None of you is gonna follow me like a pet ok?

Taking his bag, and leaving the football players Kurt remembers that being in Mckinley sucks, but less than Dalton Academy because he can wear what he wants, he can sing what and when he wants and not only as a chorus in the "Blaine and the peeps".

# McKinley High School – Middle of the day – Auditorium

Okay so, sing something about your feelings for Kurt, says Rachel with a huge smile.

Could you tell me why I have to do that? Asks David.

To feel free. Songs are great to express your feelings, for my part I love to sing songs about drama, romance and angst because this the best definition of what's happening between Finn and I...

Nothing is happening between Finn and you because he dumped you to be back with his cheerio.

That's because he doesn't know that he likes me more than that bleachy bitch, yells the Berry diva.

Okay, this is where I'm supposed to leave, begins the jock.

Oh come on! Don't you have the nuts to sing something? Says Rachel.

By those words, Dave comes closer to Rachel and shows the "fury".

Beware Berry girl, maybe you're a girl but I won't have any problem to make your noise as big as your ego! Hisses Dave.

Okay calm down Karofsky I was just trying to help, because I have two dads and I know how hard it is to be a gay teenager...

Okay... let's just... do this...

Dave Karofsky takes the wedding topper, that he has everytime with him, out from his pocket and put it on the piano, and clears his throat to be ready for singing the song he prepared, since a long time ago, to express his feelings to Kurt and like he's actually talking to him and singing to him.

Maybe you're right. Maybe there is something wrong with me. I just don't see how a world that judges you easily, could help me... Begins the jock

[Part of that world – The Little Mermaid]

Dave takes the topper in his hands and sings.

Look at this stuff
Isn't it gay?

Rachel knows the original song, it's a beautiful song but she wonders how it's gonna be as Dave's version. Meanwhile, the guy is like dancing with the topper.

Didn't you see you're in my head all days?
Wouldn't you think I'm the guy
The guy who's not, like that?

Then he begins to caress the topper, closing his eyes imaging he's caressing Kurt's face.

Look at these eyes
Cuteness inside!
How many times dreaming about holding you?
Looking around and thinking
Sure, I've got everything

The football player puts, once again, the wedding topper on the piano and singing his apologize.

I've been such a douchebag recently
I've even been such a big dork
You've been hurt by the dork?
I'm so sorry!

Looking at the floor, and feeling shame by what he did to the boy, Dave begins to reveal his real singing voice which surprises, in a positive way, Rachel.

But who cares?
You won't trust me
At all

Confessing to the queen of losers, Karofsky felt that a link had been created between them because of this secret love.

I wanna be, where my fancy is
I wanna see, wanna see him dancin'
Walking around in his - what do you call 'it?
Oh – hand!

Hidin' the truth, you don't get too far
Bully him only makes him running away
He won't know that I - what's that word again?
Love him

Praying someway, Kurt is hearing this confession and maybe will come right now and saying that he's loving him back, he insists on the second sentence.

Up when you talk, up where you are
You're the sunshine of my lonely life

Rachel can't believe what's happening now. David Karofsky hands on his heart, singing that he wants to be Kurt's boyfriend.

Just wanna be - wish I could be
Part of your heart

The Berry girl can read frustration and hope in the boy's eyes.

What would I give if I could live out of this closet?
What would I pay to spend a day hand in hand?

Looking down and clenching his fists, Dave sings with a shy voice.

Bet'cha somewhere, they understand
That they don't reprimand their sons

Those are great men, and I mean it
They'll understand

Turning around the piano looking at the wedding topper.

And ready to be what I wanted to be

Livin' my life, don't be judged like a murderer
For the first time, I will feel - what's the word?
Happy?

The jock stops and takes the topper in his hands looking at the figurines trying to imagine him and Kurt.

When's it my turn?

Wouldn't I love, love to be your ?

Looking at the ceiling, hoping not only Kurt but the whole world is hearing is pray.

Out of closet

Wish I could be

And this is hands on his heart where Dave Karofsky ends his confession by insisting on this last sentence.

Part of your heart

A minute of silence appears at the end of the song. Dave feels ashamed of what he sang and Rachel doesn't know what to say or what to do.

Was I that bad? Asks the jock.

Rachel doesn't say anything, still in shock of what happened. She gives her best "shock face" to Dave. Meanwhile, Dave understands that what he did was stupid and he should go.

That was a stupid idea, I'm off, says David.

No! David! I'm sorry... begins Rachel.

Oh leave it Berry! I know I suck at singing, I wasn't born to be a star like you.

That wasn't what I meant. I'm just still in shock because... Woaw you're damn talented!

Dave hides the wedding topper in his jacket, and grabs his bag before facing the diva.

If you talk about what happened, I'm gonna make your nose more ugly than it is actually. Grumbles Karofsky.

But Dave...

The footballer is already leaving and Rachel knows that she has to help Karofsky before he does something he could regret.

# McKinley High School – Sue Sylvester's Office

Kurt wonders why he has a convocation to Sylvester's office, he didn't do anything. Maybe the coach wants to know some things now he's back? What if she wants to exactly know what Karofsky did to him? He can't out David like this, he knows that it's already hard for his ex-bully new-bodyguard...

So, Porcelain, begins Miss Sylvester. I'm really glad you're back at McKinley.

Thank you, answers the slim boy.

I guess you heard that I lost three of my cheerleaders, right?

If you're talking about Brittany, Santana and Quinn yes I heard. And I also heard about a canon, smirks Kurt.

Well, you can imagine that without them I can't win. So... Kurt Hummel would you join us back again on the cheerleader team?

Wait, what? Asks the Hummel boy. I already joined you once and it failed, why should I join you once again?

Because you deserve to be on the spotlight, and this is what I'm gonna do!

Kurt feels that something horrible is being prepared by Miss Sylvester but he can't refuse her proposition of showing him on the spotlight, giving him the best part.

Okay I see you're hesitating, let's make this thing clear. In the future you're gonna be the most talented singer in the world. Would you want your fans watching videos of you losing those stupid contest with those misfits on Youtube, or winning national competition and traveling all over the world as the singer of my cheerleader team? Smiles the devil coach.

# McKinley High School – Hallway

Leaving Sylvester's office, Kurt sees his brother is waiting for him. The fashion boy rolls his eyes, sighs and walks a few steps.

What the coach Sylvester wanted from you? What did she tell you? Asks Finn.

Hey Finn, didn't see you. Nothing she just told me that she lost her best three cheerleader and asked me to come back as a cheerleader because she has plans for me.

And what did you say?

That's none of your business Finn.

By those words Finn stops his brother and faces him with a serious look.

Yes it is, because I care about you and we both know that you have to choose between the cheerleader and the glee club.

Really? Why I can't do both? After all you're playing football and singing in the glee club.

That's different, Coach Beiste is not the devil unlike Sylvester... Wait... did you accept?

Finn looks at Kurt's eyes and sees and knows that the kind of look Kurt is giving, is a mix of "yeah and proud of that" and "sorry I did it". The tall brother leaves the Hummer boy and walks straight to the Choir-room hoping someone is there. When he opens the door he sees that Rachel is in shock due to something he doesn't know.

Rachel, what happened? Asks Finn.

No-thing...

You sure? Because you look-like you saw a ghost or something.

I just, heard something which surprised me a lot. Anyway, why are you in a hurry?

It's Kurt, we have a big trouble.

Rachel frowns by what Finn said, is he talking about Karofsky or something else?

# McKinley High School – Stadium – Football training session

Puck joins Mike, Sam and Artie they're all wondering where Finn could be.

You! Shouts Beiste to Puck.

Yes ma'am?

Where the hell is that Hudson boy? How are we suppose to practice if the quarterback isn't here?

I dunno, I tried to call him but he doesn't answer.

Maybe he's on his way, says Mike.

Or maybe he prefers more singing his faggy songs than practicing, says Karofsky walking to the coach.

Leave it Karofsky you're not here to say bullshit about the Glee club, answers the coach.

Yeah you should leave, because it stinks the dumbass, smirks Puck.

Then Karofsky frowns and pushes Puck, the two boys begin to fight but the coach stops them.

Okay guys, you calm down! Shouts Beiste.

That's not my fault if that mohawk boy is searching troubles, grumbles David.

I said DOWN! Karofsky three turns of the stadium right now!

What the heck?

Right NOW!

The training has been canceled due to Figgins who wanted to make an appointment with all teachers about something about new rules in the school, but David had to stay to do his turns. When the boy finished turning around the stadium he takes a deep breath and sees the cheerleaders standing front of him, then he hears the music.

[Unstoppable – Kat Deluna ("Confession of a Shopaholic" soundtrack version)]

You can talk all you want but my skin is really thick
I've got my friends screwing you and my game is really slick
I'm unstoppable, unstoppable, unstoppable, unstoppable

David recognizes Kurt's voice in the group, but since when he became a cheerleader? The group comes closer to the jock still singing.

Kurt seems to be the singer in the cheerleader team from now, and it looks like he has something to sing to Dave.

So super sonic almost ironic I play it like a game of chess
You wanted to confront a queen well here you got the best
I've got the moves to the grooves, you want to imitate it, can't beat me, you will not, gonna!

The footballer gives a curious look at the singer, 'what the hell is he doing?' thinks the jock.

Wanna whip me something crazy faster than the speed of light
Show you the way an entertainer always gets them right
Don't need to backup plans I'm giving you a shot
Watch me coming back, you will not gonna [beat me]!

The slim boy is proud of his routine, maybe Dave will understand that from now he's no longer afraid.

You can talk all you want but my skin is really thick
I've got my friends screwing you and my game is really slick
I'm unstoppable, unstoppable, unstoppable, unstoppable
Save your pity for tomorrow when I'll smash it like a ball
In the club, on the news I'll be rockin' like a rock star
I'm unstoppable, unstoppable, unstoppable, unstoppable
Now shake your body,
Like you got the jungle fever rushing through your veins
We gettin' crazy and the club is banging through your brain
When I say jump, you jump, jump is knockin knockin
I wanna see you jump like this beat is rockin'
You can't ride my bracelet, kinda fancy but it's how i play

Kurt comes closer to David still dancing and singing.

You wanna threat me and see scare and fear out of me
Maybe I lost it, maybe not cause now got game
Like a burning flame, yeah that's me, uh huh
You can talk all you want but my skin is really thick
I've got my friends screwing you and my game is really slick
I'm unstoppable, unstoppable, unstoppable, unstoppable
Save your pity for tomorrow when I'll smash it like a ball
In the club, on the news I'll be rockin' like a rock star
I'm unstoppable, unstoppable, unstoppable, unstoppable

Then all the cheerios come closer to Dave walking like warriors like they're gonna fight him.

I-I-I-I'm no longer afraid
I-I-I-I'm no longer afraid
I-I-I-I'm no longer afraid

All of the cheerios leave in the back, and Kurt faces David with a serious look.

Without saying a word, the Hummel boy leaves the jock. Meanwhile, Karofsky is holding his breath, that song was so dedicated to him. From now it's all clear, Kurt changed a lot and David is not the only person to blame. What about that Blaine dude?

He changed a lot don't you think? Says a female voice behind Dave.

When Dave looks behind him he sees the blonde former cheerio and ex-pregnant Quinn Fabray.

Hey preggo, what's up? Sorry but Kurt can't help you having another baby, smirks Karofsky.

I know thanks, and I also know that Kurt owe you for something I don't know yet but it's clear that he's gonna play with it, says Quinn.

What do you mean?

I saw that routine, it's not a usual "cheerio thing" but a declaration of "try me and I'll kill you" and I was wondering what did you do to him?

Like your stupid teammates you know that I bullied him and I'm sorry about that... begins Dave.

Yeah I know, but I'm sure there's more... Like... a stolen first kiss maybe?

By those words, Dave blinks to the girl... How does she know the truth? Who told her? Kurt? That Berry bitch? Damn life at school is gonna be harder than it is actually.

Hey calm down! I'm not here to say what happened out loud, smiles Quinn.

How... do... you...

How I know? Well, let's just say I've got some sources. But trust me I put them on the wrong track so don't worry you're safe.

Why... why did you do that? After all I made him suffer and I don't deserve it, asks Dave.

Because I know that you feel horrible, that you hate yourself for what you've done and think that it's too late to recover what you did. But trust me, it's not David, you can change what people are thinking when they see you. Also, the idea of Kurt and you being a couple sounds kinda funny and hot to me.

Okay... But I ain't gonna do anything, why should I change? You saw what I saw right?

Told you, he changed a lot, maybe it's your turn to change, smirks the former cheerio.

# Rachel's place – End of the day

Quinn Fabray is less stupid than everybody is thinking, she knows many things about anybody in the school, her recent friendship with Jacob helps her a lot to dissimulate some rumors or to make them a lot bigger. Also, the blonde girl knows that there's one more person who likes juicy gossips because she loves drama... Rachel Berry.

What do you want Quinn? Frowns Rachel.

I think we both know a little secret about someone named David Karofsky, am I right?

I don't know what you're talking about, bye. Says Rachel closing the door of her house.

The former cheerio knocks at the door, at first slowly and then faster and harder to make rude noises.

What again? Asks the diva.

Listen, I'm just here to talk about Karofsky and Kurt because we both know the truth about it and we know that Karofsky is living hell. Maybe we can cooperate this time?

Wait, you stole my boyfriend and you think we can both of us trying to work on Dave's situation?

It's not about you and, or Finn, here. It's all about Kurt and David, whispers Quinn.

Rachel hesitates few minutes, of course she wants someone to help her but she never expected that it would be Quinn Fabray!

Okay but just for Kurt and David, right? After this, I won't talk to you, answers Rachel inviting the blonde girl to come in the house.

Don't feel obligate to talk to me right now, I've got my own ideas, says the former cheerio entering.

Well I guess it's start for the cooperation about the "Kurtofsky operation", yells Rachel.

I'm so gonna regret it, grumbles Quinn.

A/N: So sorry about being that late for this chapter, I didn't know how to write it good and to fit what I have in mind (especially about the song parts with choreography XD). Anyway hope you enjoyed don't forget to review ;). Next time, Kurt is gonna be a little bit bitchy :p
