Hey again :D I'm really getting through this fic aren't I? :P
Well here's a new chapter anyway ^.^

I'm dedicating this chapter to Shamrock1100 because her review was awesome :D
Again, I own nothing :(
Mike, Tina, Both
Enjoy :D
Mike and Tina
'Okay guys we have time for one more today and then we'll hear the rest tomorrow' Mr Schue announced 'So, Mike and Tina, you're up' the Asian couple clasped hands and made their way to the front they stood side by side and Tina introduced the song
'Me and Mike decided to sing 'a whole new world' from Aladdin' she said 'we thought that it matched our voices and our ethnicity and we thought that Mulan would just be too cliché, plus there isn't really a good love song in there'
They sat down on the carpet, Tina sat in front of Mike, legs crossed while he knelt behind her. The music started and Mike began to sing
'I can show you the world
Shining, shimmering, splendid
Tell me princess, now when did
You last let your heart decide?
I can open your eyes
Take you wonder by wonder
Over, sideways and under
On a magic carpet ride
A whole new world
A new fantastic point of view
No one to tell us no
Or where to go
Or say we're only dreaming'
'A whole new world' Tina sang, smiling as Mike took her by the arms and lifted her to stand so that they were swaying, almost Titanic style
A dazzling place I never knew
But when I'm way up here
It's crystal clear
That now I'm in a
Whole new world with you-'
Mike came in on her song, almost overlapping, just like they did in the movie
'Now I'm in a whole new world with you' This time Tina interrupted while Mike held his note, he really had come so far in his singing abilities
'Unbelievable sights
Indescribable feeling
Soaring, tumbling, freewheeling
Through an endless diamond sky
A whole new world'
'Don't you dare close your eyes' Mike sang as he gently stroked Tina's cheek
'A hundred thousand things to see'
'Hold your breath, it gets better'
'I'm like a shooting star
I've come so far
I can't go back to where I used to be'
'A whole new world'
'Every turn a surprise'
'With new horizons to pursue'
'Every moment red-letter' Now their voices merged into one and swelled with feeling
'I'll chase them anywhere
There's time to spare
Let me share this
Whole new world with you'
'A whole new world'
'A whole new world' Tina echoed
'That's where we'll be'
'That's where we'll be'
'A thrilling chase'
'A wondrous place'
'For you and me'
The music ended and the couples voices faded out. Then they smiled and embraced, and took bows for the applause which they knew was well deserved. They had both worked really hard on that song, and they had performed it flawlessly. It hadn't been as good as Rachel and Finn's though if expression was what Mr Schue was looking for, but they had definitely beaten Mercedes and Quinn. They had poured all their love for each other into that song. The only problem had been the choreography. There were large chunks of the song where only one of them was singing and the music was too slow to do much else but sway. They squeezed hands, hoping that they wouldn't be marked down and would at least make it to round two. Provided none of the other groups gave a better performance then at the moment they were pretty safe.
Tina rolled her eyes at Puck, who was trying, not-so-subtly, to put his arm around Kurt. The counter-tenor smirked and batted his hand away, Kurt was never really one for PDA, but Puck took advantage when he could. Tina grinned, not worried about that particular pair, although they both had great voices, Kurt wasn't very good at expressing his feeling and Puck always had trouble concentrating. If Kurt could get Puck to actually do anything it would be a miracle, and even then, it wouldn't be a particularly expressive song, no matter how excited Mr lady-fabulous was about Disney.
As Tina weighed up her competition Mike was also contemplating Kurt and Puck. It was amazing to see just how different Puck had become since going out with Kurt, he was getting better grades, he made less degrading jokes, he was less violent as a rule and watching them together, Puck was actually really sweet. And although Kurt seemed to be exactly the same, he had changed too … just less dramatically. He was stronger now, and yet more vulnerable at the same time. He had really opened up to Puck and Mike sometimes sensed a fear in his friend, usually right after a stupid argument that Puck had started and stormed out but would come to his senses within the minute and beg forgiveness. And Kurt would take him back with a quip, and relief in his eyes. Mike was actually a lot more observant than people gave him credit for. He was happy to be the background guy, he never pushed to be first, he let Tina take the lead and as such, he was rarely noticed, which meant that he could watch. And as he and the rest of the Glee club piled out of the choir room, he was less confident that they would win.
So there you go! Almost at Kurt/Puck's song ^.^ I have a gooden for them ;)
I hope you liked the chapter :D please let me know what you thought ^.^
Love you all
Love Tibbins xx
