Puck had never felt like this, he never felt out of control. The last time he felt close to this was when he had found out the truth about beth, but now this time he was doing this of his own accord. Clearing his mind he stood up ignoring the looks from his friends as he approached the center of the stage where a lone stool stood waiting.
"Alright everyone, we have a performance by our very own noah puckerman." Mr. Schue said clapping his hands before ignoring everything around him to think of a way to win over emma, despite her being madly in love with the dentist. All eyes rested on the boy in front of them "so yeah, I have a song I wanted to sing. It's for someone special, I wont say who but its important that I get this out or else I don't think I ever will" he said looking away, he couldn't look into those eyes, not knowing how they would feel about him after the song. Taking a breath he started playing the opening notes, from the gasps he heard he knew they could tell which song it was.
Oh, no oh oh
Theres a place that I know, its not pretty there and few have ever gone. If I show it to you now, will it make you run away..
That's what he was afraid of. He was putting himself out there, letting his true self be known and he wasn't sure if it would pay off, or if he would be left alone.
Or will you stay, even if it hurts. Even if I try to push you out, Will you return? And remind me who I really am. Please remind me of who I really am.
His heart clenched. He needed them to stay, sure they weren't dating but because of this wonderful loving person, he had become noah again. No matter how much he shouted, punched objects. It was those eyes and that voice that would draw him back from the darkness, every time he was pulled back from the brink the darkness was made just that much smaller.
Everybodys got a darkside, do you love me? Can you love mine?nobodys a picture perfect, but we're worth it. You know that we're worth it. Will you love me? Even with my dark side. Like a diamond, from black dust. It's hard to know it can become a few give up. So don't give up on me, please remind me of who I really am.
Puck knew it was gonna be hard, even if they stayed together it was going to bring them through some very rough times but he didn't want to go through that darkness again and his only light sat right in the second row, kurts head resting on their shoulder. HE gave the boy a quick smile, who returned it with a thumbs up. HE was glad the boy gave him a chance to make amends for his past, they had become close friends, even gave sebastion a nice talking to about hurting his boy.
As the song came to a close he noticed kurt whisper in their ear, a shocked smile spreading across their glowing face before rushing to the stage to tackle the boy in a hug and knocking him to the floor "of course I wont give up you, you stupid silly boy" the voice whispered in his ear before pulling him into a kiss. Closing his eyes he could hear his friends cheering for them, him and the light of his life. Quinn.
