A/N: I'm a country girl at heart. I want more country in my Glee! Hence why I choose a country song for this particular chappie, and this is the last one.
Chapter Three: When You Say Nothing At All:
Sam was about to forget about Artie when he finally got a message telling him to meet up in the auditorium. Sam rushed towards it, and when he got there he was blown away. Artie was on the stage waiting for him with arms wide open.
"What do you think?"
Sam made his way up the steps, seeing that front row center was a chair with Blaine's name of it. "This is amazing."
"I know." Artie replied. "You can thank me later."
"Seriously, this is…"
"No time for that. Blaine is on his way too." Artie clapped his hands. "Places!" he snuck back into his director mode.
Blaine got to the choir room in record timing, thinking that something was wrong with Sam. However, when he got there, he found that he was taken to a whole other place. It seemed someone had taken the stage and transformed into a Parisian backdrop with the Eiffel Tower include. If there was one place that Blaine Anderson always wanted to go, it was Paris. It was the most romantic place in the world. He just never thought he'd end up going without leaving Ohio.
"Hello?" he called out.
Blaine walked down the aisle finding his reserved seat. He took the piece a paper and sat down. Now, he was nervous. Who in the world could have possibly known and done this all for him?
Behind the curtain, Sam was waiting for his cue. He smiled at Blaine as the younger Anderson beamed at his new surroundings.
"I think he likes it."
"Oh no, he doesn't like it." Artie corrected him. "He loves it." Artie saw this too. "Are you ready for this Sam Evans?"
"I think so." he stammered out nervously because he's pretty sure he's never been more scared his whole life and that was saying something considering he was in the Glee club and part of the securitized swimming team.
"You either know or you don't." Artie said simply. "You can't do this thing half ass. You can't pull out when you're about to step on the field. You have to put your whole heart into this."
"What do I do?"
"You know the song When You Say Nothing At All?" Artie questioned.
Of course, Sam would since he came from more of a country background then any of them. Hell, he did sing Red Solo Cup for crying out loud. Blaine dug it.
"Do I need to say more?" Artie asked as he pulled out Sam's guitar, handing it over. "Go get him tiger."
Sam didn't have to be told twice.
In his seat, Blaine waited somewhat patiently. He began to fidget because that was something he did when got nervous. Until a familiar song and voice reached his ear.
It's amazing how you can speak right to my heart
Without saying a word, you can light up the dark
Try as I may, I could never explain
What I hear when you don't say a thing
"Sam," Blaine said with a smile.
Sam wasn't sure how his voice was working with him or how he remembered to play the guitar but he was doing it. All the while, not taking his eyes off Blaine. Blaine might not have heard this song but he hoped he'd get what he was trying to sing with him.
The smile on your face lets me know that you need me
There's a truth in your eyes sayin' you'll never leave me
The touch of your hand says you'll catch me if ever I fall
You say it best when you say nothing at all
Blaine was getting it. He just couldn't believe it. If this was truly happening, then all his dreams was coming true right in front of him. Only this was ten times better than anything he could have come up with in his imagination and for Blaine that was a lot. Up until now, that was all he had.
It really all was all in Blaine's smile. The way his eyes lit up when ever Sam was around, made him feel as though he was actually worth something. He liked being able to look into those dark pools only to see his own reflection.
All day long I can hear people talking out loud
But when you hold me near, you drown out the crowd
Old Mr. Webster could never define
What's being said between your heart and mine
There was always talk about them. Sam recalled when he first befriend Kurt, it was the same situation but this time a little more. It reminded him of another song: Something To Talk About by Bonnie Raitt. He had it in mind to sing that at the next Glee club to make it all official. So, the rumors would no longer be rumors. He couldn't wait. Then again, he had to make sure that Blaine actually agreed to it first. He didn't want to pressure the boy. Blaine been through enough as it was.
Sam finished up with the last of the chorus. He was taken aback when he saw Blaine pushing himself off his seat to make this solo into a duet.
The smile on your face lets me know that you need me
There's a truth in your eyes sayin' you'll never leave me
The touch of your hand says you'll catch me if ever I fall
You say it best when you say nothing at all
Blaine was like a moth to the flame. He was being drawn to Sam. He had it under good authority that this time he wouldn't be burnt alive.
"This was all for you." Sam said when the song was done.
"You did this… All for me?" Blaine asked him.
"Well, I had a little help." Sam gave a swift nod of his head in Artie's direction.
Blaine turned to find Artie there. Artie waved. "Hi Blaine." he said somewhat tearfully.
"Artie, are you crying?" Blaine was a crier. He wasn't one to miss the tears.
"No, I simply have something in my eye." he lied with a sniff. "Are you going to kiss all ready are what guys because you are seriously ruining a romantic moment for me! Don't make me push one of you!"
Sam took Blaine's face in his hands yet again and unlike the other night, he was able to do it. He was able to brush his lips against Blaine's. It started off slow, allowing himself to get the way of kissing another boy. It wasn't that different from kissing a girl. Blaine kissed him back. Blaine was the one who made it a little more passionate. He deepened the kiss and for the first time in his life he wasn't scared.
"It's about damn time!" Artie cheered them on from the side lines.
"I've always liked you." Blaine felt the need to confess. "I've liked you from the moment we met."
"You could have told me." Sam said. It would have made everything a lot easier than having to drag it out. "Why didn't you say something?"
"Scared I guess." Blaine figured. "I've messed up a lot. This is the one thing I don't want to screw up."
Sam agreed on that. "How are we going to do this?"
"One day at a time, make up for the time we lost." Blaine suggested.
"That I can most definitely do."
"Aww Hell, you two just kiss again!"
Blaine laughed. "Am I going to have to help find you a girlfriend Artie?"
"Why, when I'm obviously living vigorously through you guys?"
Sam smiled at him. He'd thank him later. He'd do better than that. Artie wanted to be his best man. He'd make sure that would happen.
END.
A/N: I picked When You Say Nothing At All as BLAM's song because it's one of my favorites. If I ever got married I imagined that this would be my wedding song. (or To Be With You by Mr Big) It just fits so perfectly when any romantic occasion. It screamed BLAM. Back to the point I'm trying to make because I ramble when I get excited. This song was written by Chord's dad! I didn't know this until I wikied this song's back ground to decide which version to use! How freaky is that! Which makes this song even more awesome. I'll let you guys pick which one. I prefer Allison Krauss.
