AUTHOR'S NOTE: Heyy Loves! I'm SOOO sorry that I took so long to post this chapter; I had SUCH bad writer's block! Then last night, it literally just hit me out of nowhere! Also, I would like to thank TinaOrt33955296 from Twitter for reading this story and giving it such great reviews, and for also encouraging me to fight through my writer's block. So here's the chapter!
Glee club was Rory's favorite part of the school day. Rachel and Kurt sat on either side of him talking about some romantic thing that Finn and Blaine did. Rory did his best to listen, but he was distracted by Sam talking to Mr. Schue and Brad the piano player. Sam took a seat, and Brad walked out of the room. Where was he going? It was no secret that Brad wasn't exactly the Glee Club's biggest fan, but it was his job to play the piano for them.
Rory was about to politely excuse himself from his conversation with Rachel and Kurt so that he could ask Sam what was going on, but Mr. Schue was calling for everyone's attention. "Everyone, Sam has a special treat for us today. Sam, why don't you come on up and tell us your surprise?" Mr. Schue said. Sam walked to the front of the room, and Mr. Schue took a seat. "Well, I wanted to do something special in Glee Club. We all always just sing, and I've done the whole guitar things so many times already. I thought I'd try something new, so I learned how to play the piano. Well, technically I can only play one real song so far, but I was too excited to wait. At first, I wasn't sure what kind of song I wanted to learn how to play for you all. As you all know, I had my heart broken pretty badly. There are a lot of songs that I could've learned how to play about love being a losing battle in order to get that off of my chest" Sam said, giving Mercedes a look at that last part. Rory smirked in spite of himself. "But I'd rather not focus on the past, and instead sing about how I'm feeling now. Thanks to my wonderful boyfriend Rory, I'm able to sing a love song sweet enough to be played on the radio. So in the end, I decided on an acoustic cover of I Want You To Know by Zedd and Selena Gomez" Sam said.
"I'm slippin' down a chain reaction, and here I go, here I go, here I go, go. And once again, I'm yours in fractions. It takes me down, pulls me down, pulls me down low. Honey it's rainin' tonight, but storms always have an eye, have an eye. Tell me your covered tonight, or tell me lies, tell me lies, lie, lies. I want you to know that it's our time. You and me bleed the same light. I want you to know that I'm all yours. You and me, we're the same force. I want you to know that it's our time. You and me bleed the same light. I want you to know that I'm all yours. You and me run the same course" Sam sang as he played the piano.
Each of the couples in Glee Club took their lovers by the hand and danced as Sam sang his song. Rory sat down next to Sam on the piano bench. Although they were in a full Choir room, it felt like it was just him and Sam. When Sam's song was over, everyone applauded. Sam leaned over to whisper in Rory's ear. "Just wait, you have another surprise coming tonight" Sam whispered, then gave Rory a kiss on the cheek.
Rory waited impatiently the rest of the day. He couldn't wait to see what Sam had in store. When it got close to dinner time, Rory got a text from Sam. "Don't spoil your appetite too much ;)" Sam's text read. Rory was even more confused now, but he made sure not to get too full at dinner.
Just as it was getting dark, Sam texted Rory again. "I'm here! Sorry I can't come to the door, but we need to hurry, otherwise we're going to be late. Don't forget to bring a hoodie" Sam's text said. Rory said a quick goodbye to Brittany and her family, grabbed a hoodie, and rushed out the door. Rory hopped in Sam's truck, and the two boys drove away. "Where are we going Sammy?" Rory asked. "Patience Rory, you'll find out soon enough" Sam teased.
Sam parked the truck near a giant field. "We're here!" Sam said. "What exactly is here Sammy?" Rory asked in confusion. "Well, the main event isn't until a little bit later, but I wanted to get here early because the main event is public, and I wanted us to have some private time. I packed us some food" Sam said. "But it's night time" Rory said, still confused. "Haven't you ever heard of a moonlight picnic?" Sam asked. Rory shook his head. "No, but it sounds lovely" Rory said.
Sam laid out a blanket for them to sit on, got out the food, and the boys sat down. "I hope you like PB&J sandwiches. It's kinda the only thing I know how to make" Sam said, getting red with embarrassment. "I love peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, thank you Sammy!" Rory said happily. The two boys ate in silence, just enjoying each other's company.
When the boys finished eating, people started to arrive. "So what is the main event Sammy?" Rory asked. "You're about to find out" Sam said. Sure enough, in a couple minutes, fireworks filled the sky. "Oh my goodness! How beautiful! I've read about fireworks, but I've never actually seen them in person before!" Rory exclaimed. Sam grinned at his boyfriend's enthusiasm. There were SO many pretty colors and patterns, but damn, were they ever loud! One set in particular boomed really loudly, causing Rory to jump. Sam pulled Rory onto his lap. Rory looked up at Sam, the fireworks lighting up Sam's face in different colors. He was so beautiful. As the two boys kissed, Rory knew why there were always fireworks in the background for great kisses in the movies.
After the fireworks ended, Sam and Rory stayed after everyone else had left. The night sky had gone back to its normal starry self as if nothing happened. Rory heard crickets in the grass. It was crazy how things could go from so loud and flashy to peaceful and normal again. "Did you like your surprises today baby?" Sam asked. "Oh yes Sammy! I still can't believe that you learned how to play the piano!" Rory said. "Well, I find that there's something very calming and romantic about the piano. Just like you" Sam said. Rory smiled. Just then, a shooting star shot across the night sky. "Make a wish" Sam said. "I don't need to. I already got my wish" Rory said happily.
AUTHOR'S NOTE: So I hope that this chapter was worth the wait Loves! I'm not entirely sure what I'm gonna do for the next chapter, but hopefully it won't take me as long to write the next one as it took me to write this one. If you Loves have any ideas, please don't hesitate to tell me in the reviews section!
