"Unforgettable That's What You Are"
Chapter Ten
"So Quinn is here" Rachel told Finn, seeing what kind of reaction she would get out of him. "She arrived with Sam" she added, knowing fair well they only 'arrived' together because they bumped into each other in the foyer this morning, and realised they were both going to the icebreaker party. She also didn't say that Sam had an equally keen interest in her best friend.
"Oh is she? I haven't seen her in seven years" he told her, secretly scanning the room for the bottle blond woman.
"So how are Carole and Burt?" she already knew how they were from Kurt.
"Still going strong as ever, they have twin girls" he said with a proud smile of his new sisters.
She already knew this as well, she has been sending them birthday gifts for the past seven years "How old are they?"
"Ana-Beth and Clara Jayne are six now!"
"Time has really flown by quick!" Rachel said
"I am soooo glad you are here Paris!" she hugged her old friend.
"Beautiful dress Rory, part of the Imaginative collection." she looked impressed.
"Yeah Logan bought it for me…"
"Logan bought it for you?" she said with a credible face. "Why is Logan buying you a dress? I thought he was engage?"
"I thought Rachel sent it over to my office, knowing that I forgot to buy a dress for tonight"
"I take it by that look that something else has happened?" she assumed right.
"Yes! Logan is talking to Sam Evans!" she said with shock
"Sam Evans the talent coach?" she asked with surprise
"I can't believe everyone knows each other!" she said with a laugh.
"Sam is Doyle's second cousin from Tennessee" Paris said to her.
"Oh so you know a lot about him then?" she said with a smile.
"A little"
"I saw you talking to Finn before" she heard a whisper behind her.
"Yes he was my surprise from Kurt" she amuse, "he wasn't meant to come tonight. He forgot that Kurt and Blaine live in New York too" she explained to why he was here tonight.
"Trust him to not put two and two together" he said with a laugh
"I thought you two had patch things up before I left for New York"
"Yeah that didn't last long" was all he said, and by the look on his face, she knew she wouldn't get any more from him. She would have to extract it from Kurt later.
"I love all the songs that you have sung tonight"
"That's a relief" he told her, he actually looked relieved too. She smile at him at hugged him tightly to her, his arms snaked around her to hug her back. Being in his arms felt like home again, they stayed like for a long moment.
Rory looked over at her friend with a smile. She was glad to see her two friends together and could imagine a long life partnership, which she hoped would end with something more. She turned her attention back to Paris. She was glad that she was happy and truly in love with Doyle.
"I have some news to tell you Rory!" she said excitedly, looking like she would burst any moment now.
"Tell me!" she hugged her friend excitedly.
"I'm pregnant!" she shrieked loudly, which rained an applause an congratulations from everyone who was in hearing shot.
"OMG! OMG! Congratulations!" Rory hugged her friend they started jumping up and down together.
"Wow calm down with my Misses Rory!" Doyle said in such a serious tone, you could tell how worrie he really was about her. "Paris be careful!" he warned her, rubbing her belly like an expectant father would.
"I'm pregnant Doyle, not sick!" she smile at her husband and kissed his lips.
"I am truly happy for you both!" she smiled at her friends, hugging them to her for a group hug.
"Rory Gilmore meet my second cousin Sam Evans" Doyle remembered that he was still around, smiling at the whole scene. She guessed that he had seen her jumping around with Paris before too, her face redden with embarrassment.
"Yes Rachel introduced us earlier. I went to the same school with her back in Ohio. We were in the same glee club together" Sam told his cousin with a big grin.
"Ah the famous Glee club" Doyle smiled at his cousin.
"Paris you are looking well! Pregnant huh? Congratulations!" he hugged the blond to him.
"Thank you Sammy!" she said to him. "Will you be singing later?"
"Noah roped me in to sing with him" he said with a laugh, they heard Noah stop singing.
"Hello everyone. I would like to call on my good friend from my old days in the school Glee Club, Sam Evans please take the stage" he said with such pride in his voice.
Sam looked at Rory and smile, before walking towards the stage.
Sam
We'll do it all
Everything
On our own
Noah
We don't need
Anything
Or anyone
If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?
I don't quite know
How to say
How I feel
Those three words
Are said too much
They're not enough
If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?
Forget what we're told
Before we get too old
Show me a garden that's bursting into life
Let's waste time
Chasing cars
Around our heads
I need your grace
To remind me
To find my own
If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?
Forget what we're told
Before we get too old
Show me a garden that's bursting into life
All that I am
All that I ever was
Is here in your perfect eyes, they're all I can see
I don't know where
Confused about how as well
Just know that these things will never change for us at all
If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?
"Thanks Sam! Just like the old days!" Noah smile across to his friend, who bowed and walked off the stage, as everyone applauded. "Does anyone else want to give it ago?"
"Rory and I will have a turn" Rachel walked on staged; an Rory went as bright as a tomato, knowing fair well that she couldn't sing. Everyone clapped their hands, and Rory eyed her friend, faking her smile.
"Rachel what are you doing? You know I can't sing!" she whispered to her friend.
"We'll sing it together okay?" she smiled back at her friend.
I could stay awake just to hear you breathing
Watch you smile while you are sleeping
While you're far away and dreaming
I could spend my life in this sweet surrender
I could stay lost in this moment forever
Where every moment spent with you is a moment I treasure
Don't wanna close my eyes, I don't wanna fall asleep
'Cause I'd miss you baby and I don't wanna miss a thing
'Cause even when I dream of you the sweetest dream would never do
I'd still miss you baby and I don't want to miss a thing
Lying close to you feeling your heart beating
And I'm wondering what you're dreaming
Wondering if it's me you're seeing
Then I kiss your eyes and thank God we're together
I just wanna stay with you in this moment forever, forever and ever
I don't wanna close my eyes, I don't wanna fall asleep
'Cause I'd miss you baby and I don't wanna miss a thing
'Cause even when I dream of you the sweetest dream would never do
I'd still miss you baby and I don't want to miss a thing
I don't wanna miss one smile, I don't wanna miss one kiss
I just wanna be with you, right here with you, just like this
I just want to hold you close, feel your heart so close to mine
And just stay here in this moment for all the rest of time
Don't wanna close my eyes, don't wanna fall asleep
'Cause I'd miss you baby and I don't wanna miss a thing
'Cause even when I dream of you the sweetest dream would never do
I'd still miss you baby and I don't want to miss a thing
I don't wanna close my eyes, I don't wanna fall asleep
'Cause I'd miss you baby and I don't wanna miss a thing
'Cause even when I dream of you the sweetest dream would never do
I'd still miss you baby and I don't want to miss a thing
I don't wanna close my eyes, I don't wanna fall asleep
Yeah, I don't wanna miss a thing
Everyone smile at them, clapping and cheering at the two females on the stage.
"Thank you everyone!" they both said together and hugged each other and walked off the stage.
"Don't run off Rachel. Let's have a Glee reunion! Come on guys!" Noah said with a smile.
Rachel walked back up the stairs and back towards Noah. Finn, Kurt, Santana, Sam, Mercedes, Britney, Artie, Lauren, Tina and Mike walked to the stage.
