Duet Partner
When Kurt and Sebastian arrived at NYADA they went straight to the music room. There were a few students there but the piano was free for them to use it.
- "Wow this place is beautiful." Sebastian said while looking at the room
- "Yeah! It's my favorite place at school; you can practice, read or just seat and listen to others. It's like the heart of NYADA." Kurt said
-"This piano is amazing, I used to have one like this at my parents house"
-"You play the piano?"
-"Among other things... So what now?"
-"I don't know. I just want to know how our voices sound together."
-"Do you have any songs in mind?"
-"I was thinking of doing one of my favorite songs, Already Home by A Big Great World"
-"I love that song, if you have the sheet music I can play it here"
-"Awesome, let me go get it"
Kurt went to the computer lab to print the sheet music and went back with Sebastian. He found him already talking to a bunch of students. He wasn't surprised at all.
-"Ready?" Sebastian said when Kurt entered the room
-"Yes, here it is" Kurt said while handing him the sheet music.
-"You want to go first?"
- "Sure".
Sebastian seated at the piano, placed the sheet music and started playing. Kurt took the first part.
You say love is what you put into it
You say that I'm losing my will
Don't you know that you're all that I think about?
You make up a half of the whole
You say that it's hard to commit to it
You say that it's hard standing still
Don't you know that I spend all my nights
Counting backwards the days 'til I'm home?
If only New York wasn't so far away
I promise the city won't get in our way
When you're scared and alone,
Just know that I'm already home
Then some of the students that were previously talking with sebastian started playing other instruments while Sebastian started his part of the song. He also noticed that some students were recording them with their phones.
I say that we're right in the heart of it
A love only we understand
I will bend every light in this city
And make sure they're shining on you
If only New York wasn't so far away
I promise the city won't get in our way
When you're scared and alone,
Just know that I'm already home
Kurt couldn't believe how Sebastian had managed to convince the other students to join him in the number. He was mesmerized, Sebastian had a great voice and it went perfectly with Kurt's.
Then Kurt started singing the next lines.
When life takes its own course
Sometimes we just don't get to choose
And then Sebastian joined him.
I'd rather be there next to you
Promise you'll wait for me, wait for me
Wait 'til I'm home.
All I have is this feeling inside of me
The only thing I've ever known.
It was Sebastian's turn to sing a few lines.
If only New York wasn't so far away
I promise the city won't get in our way
Then Kurt joined him to the big ending.
When you're scared and alone,
Just know that I'm already home
If only New York wasn't so far away
I will be there every step of the way
And when you're scared and alone,
Just know that I'm already home
And Kurt sang the last line flawlessly
Just know that I'm already home
When they finished everybody was clapping and cheering like crazy.
-"Seb! It was A-M-A-Z-I-N-G! How did you managed to convince the other guys to join us in song?"
-"Easy! I'm charming by nature and I already knew the music by heart. I sent you for it to gain time to ask if anyone else knew it."
-"Hey, that's rude! I ran across the school to get the sheet music"
-"But it was worth it right?"
-"You have no idea!"
-"So… am I your duet partner?"
-"Absolutely"
One of the guys that were taking to Sebastian earlier approached them. Kurt didn't know his name but he had seen him around school.
-"Hey that was amazing! Congratulations" He said while shaking hands first with Kurt and then with Sebastian
-"Thank you…?" Kurt asked
-"Oh yes, my bad." Sebastian said "Kurt this is Elliott, he helped organizing this with his friends"
Kurt was really surprised that Sebastian had remembered Elliott's name.
-"So, here's my phone number. Call me when you have the video ready" Sebastian said giving Elliott a piece of paper.
-"Video?" Kurt asked
-"Yes, Sebastian asked me if I could record your performance" Elliott said. "I'll have it tomorrow afternoon, we can meet at the little coffee shop that's nearby"
-"Ok, I'll be waiting for your call" Sebastian said when another boy came and told Elliott it was time for their next class.
-"Sure, see you tomorrow" Elliott said to the boys while walking away with the other guy.
Sebastian was still looking to where Elliott had disappeared. While almost everyone exited the room.
-"OMG! You like him!" Kurt said when they were the only two people in the room.
-"What?" Sebastian asked as if he just went out of a trance
-"Elliott, you like him!"
-"Of course not"
-"I may not know you for a very long time but come on, you remembered his name after just hearing his name once and you were acting like a normal human being. You weren't trying to hit on him"
-"Yeah, whatever you say Porcelain" Sebastian said while they walked out of the room.
So here's this month's chapter, I hope you liked it. I'm sorry I couldn't update earlier, I just started working full time so I have less time to write.
What do you think about Elliott and Sebastian? Do you want to know more about those two or we just leave it like that? Tell me what you think! I'd love hearing your opinions!
