I re-wrote this chapter like a thousand times until I was satisfied with it, so I hope you like it :) The song I used are Iris by the Goo Goo Dolls, and Just a Dream by Sam Tsui and Christina Grimmie (I know this song is originally from Nelly, but this was the version I used :P)
Elizabeth and Sam looked at each other. There were sitting in the bed, facing each other.
"What are we going to do?" Sam asked.
"I don't know. Maybe we should confront them."
"They will not tell us anything!"
"Well, we can always tell them that we saw them kissing."
"They will deny it."
"But they'll know that we know, it would make no sense to hide it any longer." Elizabeth said.
"I'm not so sure…" Sam said.
"I know!" Elizabeth said "I will talk to Adam. Every time I say "Come on, Adam, I'm your little sister! Don't you love me?" and cry a little, he melts and does anything I want. And if that doesn't work, I can always blackmail him."
"Blackmail him?"
"Oh, believe me, I know a couple things that he doesn't want ANYONE to know" Elizabeth said, with a mischievous grin.
"That's terrible and awesome at the same time" Sam said, grinning too.
"Okay, here's the plan…" Elizabeth said, and Sam moved closer to her.
"You didn't have to walk me to the entrance, you know" Anna said, standing in the doorway of her house.
"If I hadn't, I couldn't have done this" James said.
He leaned in and kissed her. Anna was surprised at first, but then she kissed him back. After a few seconds, they parted. They looked at each other for a while, and then they both giggled.
"I thought we had kissed enough during the movie" Anna said.
"I will never have enough of your kisses" James said.
The girl smiled, and so did he.
"Good night, Anna" James said, and kissed her again.
"Good night, James" Anna said. The boy turned around and walked to his car. When he disappeared down the street, the girl entered her house, smiling broadly.
She was about to go upstairs, when Hannah called her from the living room. She went there, only to find her sister sitting in the couch, looking at her with an eyebrow raised and a little smirk.
"So? How was your date?"
"It was amazing!" Anna shouted, and sat next to her.
"Tell me everything!"
"Well, as you know, he picked me up here at home. Then, we went to the cinema and watched a romantic movie."
Hannah nodded, encouraging her sister to keep talking.
"In the middle of the movie, he took my hand, and he looked at me in the eyes and then…" Anna went silent for a moment, to create suspense "He kissed me!"
If Anna was expecting Hannah to squeal, laugh, and hug her, she was wrong. Her sister just looked at her, frowning.
"Oh, come on Hannah!" Anna said.
"Hey, no one kisses my sister without my permission!"
"If he had asked you for permission, you wouldn't have given it to him anyway!"
"You're right. Keep going, I want to know the rest." Hannah said.
"Then we kept watching the movie. And we kissed again…and again…and again… and…" Anna said, smiling.
"Okay, okay, I get it!" Hannah interrupted her.
"When the movie was over we had coffee, and then we walked around the mall, holding hands…"
"I'm sure your hands were sweating" Hannah said laughing.
"No! I think…" Anna shook her head "Anyway, then he drove me here, he kissed me, he said good night, and here I am" she finished with a smile.
"Sounds like a nice date" Hannah said "So, are you two officially dating now?"
"I don't know" Anna said. "Come on, let's go to sleep, I'm tired."
Steven heard something hitting his window. He opened his eyes, slowly, and rose from his bed. He looked outside the window and sighed. James was standing in his front yard, smiling broadly. He was throwing stones at his window.
"James, dude, what are you doing?" Steven asked, opening the window "It's eleven p.m! I was sleeping!"
"I kissed her!" James yelled "I kissed Anna!"
"Oh, my God!" Steven yelled too, smiling. "Was it good?"
"It was awesome!"
Jessica, Steven's sister, opened her own window and looked at them, annoyed.
"Hey, boys" she said "I know you're really excited about James getting a girlfriend and everything, but I'm trying to sleep!"
"Sorry" they both said.
"Come inside, dude" Steven said, and threw the keys to James.
A couple minutes later, they were both sitting on the bed.
"And then I kissed her, and I left." James said.
"Dude, that's awesome!" Steven exclaimed.
"I know! Best date ever!"
"And is she your girlfriend now?"
"I'm not sure, we haven't talk about it…"
"Hey, isn't your mom going to be angry at you for coming home late? It's eleven and a half…"
"Well, I got home around nine, but I didn't have the keys, and my mom didn't want to go downstairs and open the door for me." James explained.
"Is she angry at you again?"
"Yeah"
"What did you do now?"
"I made the microwave explode."
"How!"
"I wanted to know what happened if I put aluminum in it…"
Steven looked at him for a while, with an eyebrow raised.
"And why didn't you call me?" he asked "I'm sure it was awesome!"
"It was! Hey, dude, can I sleep here tonight?" James asked.
"I'm not sure…"
"We can cuddle! I'll let you be the little spoon." James said.
"You know that sounds like we were boyfriends, right?"
"But we cuddle since we were in kindergarten!"
"I never said we weren't going to cuddle."
They smiled goofily.
"Come, I'll lend you some pajamas." Steven said.
"Lizzie, I don't know what you're talking about" Adam said.
"Yes, you do!" the girl exclaimed "Adam, please, I saw you! You were kissing!"
"You're confused"
"No, I'm not!" Elizabeth sighed, and she sat next to her brother "Please, Adam, I'm your sister, you know you can tell me anything!"
Adam looked at her for a few seconds, and then he sighed.
"Do you know why Barbra moved here?" he asked. Elizabeth shook her head "She wanted to get away from me."
"Why? Did you do something bad to her?"
"In some way" Adam smiled bitterly "I told her that I am in love with her."
Elizabeth bit her lip and looked down. Then, she looked at Adam again.
"Are you?" she asked.
"Of course I am." he said "Do you want to know the worst part?"
"What?"
"She's in love with me too."
A little silence fell upon them.
"Is that all?" Elizabeth asked.
"What do you mean with "Is that all?"? We're cousins!"
"But you're in love with each other! What's wrong with that?" Elizabeth said "Dad and papa always taught us that love can't be judged, no matter what. I thought you understood that."
"I do, Lizzie, I do understand that. If I had to choose, I would be his boyfriend right now. Damn, I would even be her husband!"
"You really love her, don't you?"
"More than I ever thought I could love anyone" Adam said, sadly.
Elizabeth hugged him, and he hugged her back, tightly. Then, they parted, and Elizabeth put a hand in Adam's shoulder.
"What are you going to do?" she asked.
"I don't know. I guess I'll have to give up on her."
"Are you kidding me!" Elizabeth stood up.
"What else do you want me to do, Lizzie?" Adam said, standing up too "She's my cousin, I don't stand a chance with her!"
"But she loves you!"
"And it's not right!"
"Love is never wrong!" Elizabeth said, on the verge of tears.
"Guess what, Lizzie? Sometimes, life isn't perfect. And sometimes, you have to forget about you feelings, and move on."
Adam left Elizabeth's bedroom. The girl hit her pillow, and let out an angry noise. She felt the tears streaming down her face. She felt so sorry for Adam and Barbra, and she felt so frustrated, because she couldn't do anything. Elizabeth lay in her bed, and covered her face with a pillow.
Hannah approached James, who was standing in the hallway, talking to Spencer.
"James" she said, and he turned to look at her "Can I talk to you for a minute?"
"Sure"
They walked together until they got to an empty hallway. She turned to look at him, smiling.
"So, you like my sister?" she said.
"Well, yeah, I think she's awesome" he said, blushing a little.
"Good to know, because she likes you too. A lot." Hannah said, and her smile vanished "Look, you don't seem too brilliant, so I'll put it simple. Anna drops a single tear, and you can say goodbye to your your teeth. Are we clear?"
James looked at her wide eyed, scared. He nodded slowly. Hannah smiled again.
"Great. It was nice talking to you."
She left him alone. James swallowed, watching her go. That girl was scary.
"David told me that you have a date tomorrow"
"Well, it's not a date. We're just going to the library. She wants me to help her pick some books"
Lucy raised her eyebrows at Kevin, as they walked down the hallway.
"For you nerds, that is the most romantic date EVER" she said.
"It's not a date!" he said, laughing "Sophie and I are just friends"
"So were David and I"
"Who said my name?" David asked, as Lucy and Kevin stepped into the classroom.
"We were talking about Kevin's date" Lucy said. She sat next to David, and gave him a peck.
"It's not a date!" Kevin said, sitting next to Lucy.
"Dude, it's totally a date!" David said "I mean, you two bookworms are going to a library. It's like when Lucy and I go to a disc store."
"It's that a date for you?" Kevin asked.
"Well, Lucy doesn't like going to the movies" David said.
"Are you crazy!" Kevin said.
"It's exasperating!" Lucy said "People is always talking, or using their cellphones, or a human giraffe sits in front of you!"
"And you prefer going to a disc store?" Kevin asked, raising his eyebrows.
"It doesn't matter where we go, as long as we are together" Lucy said, smiling at David. He smiled too, and kissed her.
"You guys are sickeningly sweet" Kevin said.
"When you and Sophie start dating, we can go on a double date, and we can be sickeningly sweet together!" David said.
"Sophie and I are not…!"
"Yeah, whatever" David interrupted him, as the teacher walked into the classroom.
Kevin sighed.
"Sit down, please!" Alma said, and she waited until everyone was seated "Look guys, I talked to the Principal. He said that we need at least twelve members to compete at sectionals."
Everyone looked around.
"But we're only eleven" Kevin said.
"Exactly" Alma said "We need one more member. Do you know anyone who would like to join?"
Kevin smiled.
"I think I know someone."
"You want me to join the Glee Club?"
"Yeah" Kevin said, smiling.
"No" Sophie said, and kept looking at the books.
"Why not?"
"Look, Kevin, I'm not very popular" the girl said "I'm always in the library, I get high grades, and my glasses are so thick that I bet they're bulletproof"
"But I like your glasses…" Kevin said.
"My point is…" Sophie kept saying "If I join the Glee Club, I will turn into a complete loser. No offense."
"Oh, don't worry, I get called loser like ten times a day."
"That's what I mean! I'm sorry, Kevin, I wish I could help you, but I wouldn't like to get a slushie facial every morning."
"I understand"
"Really, I'm sorry…"
"Hey, don't worry, I bet we'll find someone else" Kevin smiled at her, and she smiled too.
"Hey, look!" she said "It's a special edition of the Chronicles of Narnia!"
"Awesome!"
They kept walking around the library, laughing and looking at different books.
"So, your girlfriend didn't want to join?" Spencer asked.
"Nope. And she isn't my girlfriend."
"Yet" David said, smiling.
"What are we going to do now?" Barbra asked.
"Hey, don't worry" Alma said "Lizzie, you're in the Cheerios, right?"
"Yes, but I don't think that anyone wants to join" the girl said.
"And what about the football team?" the teacher asked, looking at James, Steven and Spencer.
"No, I don't think so." James said.
"Yeah, bad idea" Alma said, and then she frowned.
"Maybe we could make some posters?" Sam proposed.
"We made some at the beginning of the year" Lucy said "I think the football team ended up using them as toilet paper."
"Yes, they did" Steven said, and James and Spencer nodded.
"Don't worry, Miss Schue. I'm sure we'll find someone" David said with a reassuring smile.
"I hope so" the teacher said.
Barbra heard someone knocking the door.
"Come in!" she shouted.
Elizabeth opened the door, and stepped in, closing it behind her.
"Hi" she said, sitting in the bed next to Barbra.
"Hi. What happened?"
"I just wanted to talk to you." Elizabeth said.
"I'm listening" Barbra said, and Elizabeth bit her lip.
"I saw you kissing my brother" she said, finally.
Barbra widened her eyes, and opened her mouth slightly, clearly surprised.
"I didn't…we weren't… I…" the girl cleared her throat, and she seemed to regain her composure "I didn't kiss Adam."
"You're lying"
"How dare you call me a liar?" Barbra said dramatically, in a way she could only have learned from her mother.
"Barbra, I saw you. And Sam did too, you can ask her"
"We were…rehearsing a play" Barbra said.
"Which play?"
"Um…"
"Barbra, don't lie to me!" Elizabeth said "Please, I just want to help you…"
"No one can help me" Barbra interrupted her "Because I'm helplessly in love with my own cousin. There, I said it. Are you happy now?"
"No, I'm not. Why didn't you tell me?"
"What was I supposed to say? "Hey, Lizzie, how are you doing? By the way, I'm love with your brother, who happens to be my cousin, no problem, right?" He's my own family, Lizzie! We grew up together, we're almost like brothers!"
"So what?" Elizabeth said "You know my dads wouldn't have a problem with it, and I bet your parents wouldn't either!"
"Well, I have a problem with it!" Barbra exclaimed "How am I supposed to be with him? It's not normal!"
"Well, my parents aren't "normal" either, they're two men, but they still love each other. I'm not "normal" either, I like girl instead of boys." Elizabeth said "And I bet that we're a thousand times better than a lot of "normal" people."
"That's not what I'm talking about!"
"Then what are you talking about?" Elizabeth exclaimed, and Barbra looked down "Barbra, Adam loves you, and you love him. I don't see why you can't be together…"
"Do you want me to spell it for you?" Barbra shouted "We're cousins, Lizzie! COUSINS!"
"But…"
"Look, I don't care what you think. Just leave!"
"Barbra…" Elizabeth tried to say.
"Leave!"
"Fine" Elizabeth stood up and walked to the door. When she was about to leave, she turned around "I just thought that you weren't one of those people who let everyone else's prejudices step on her own feelings."
When Barbra was left alone, she turned around and flopped on her bed, with a loud sigh.
"Is she my cousin?" the little boy asked, looking at the baby who was sleeping in her aunt's arms.
"Yes. Her name is Barbra." Rachel said, smiling from the hospital bed.
"Barbra…" Adam whispered, delighted with the little baby. "She's so cute…"
"She looks a lot like you, Rachel" Kurt said. He had Elizabeth in his arms, and she was playing with the collar of his shirt.
"She's a lot smaller than Lizzie" Adam said, looking at his sister.
"That's because Lizzie is two months older than Barbra" Blaine explained, ruffling Adam's hair.
"Oh…"
"Oh, my God, Rachel, she's so beautiful…" Finn said, his eyes shining, and a goofy smile on his face.
"I know, right?" the woman said, smiling at her daughter.
"When she grows up, she's going to be the prettiest girl ever!" Adam exclaimed "And Lizzie too" the kid was quick to say, as if his little sister was going to be offended.
"I bet they will" Kurt said, smiling at his three year old son.
"Can I touch her?" Adam asked to Finn and Rachel.
"Of course" Rachel said, and moved closer to the edge of the bed, so her nephew could touch Barbra.
Adam touched her hand softly. Her little hand closed around his finger. The boy smiled broadly.
"Look! She's squeezing my finger!" he exclaimed.
The adults laughed at Adam's cuteness.
"Hi, Barbra" he whispered to her "I'm your cousin Adam. When you were in auntie's tummy, I thought that you were going to be bigger, because auntie looked really fat" Rachel frowned, and Finn, Blaine and Kurt did their best to suppress their laughter "But you're really small…" Adam kept talking to his cousin "I promise I will do my best to protect you and Lizzie, because you two are so tiny that I'm afraid you could break"
Kurt looked at Blaine, and they smiled at each other.
"I don't know you very well, but I love you a lot" the little boy said "It was the same when Lizzie was born. When I saw her, I knew that I loved her even more than I love papa's blueberry muffins. And I LOVE papa's blueberry muffins."
The adults laughed softly, and Adam kept talking to Barbra.
"And I love you too. So I promise that I will be there when you need me."
When he finished talking, everyone was moved. Kurt and Rachel even had tears in their eyes. Barbra opened her eyes and looked at Adam. He smiled at her and kissed her softly in the forehead.
Adam smiled, remembering the first time he saw Barbra. He was lying on his bed, looking at the ceiling, listening to random songs on his iPod. One of his favorite songs started to play. He started to sing, thinking about Barbra.
And I'd give up forever to touch you
Cause I know that you feel me somehow
You're the closest to heaven that I'll ever be
And I don't wanna go home right now
He sat on his bed, still singing.
And all I can taste is this moment
And all I can breathe is your life
Cause sooner or later it's over
I just don't wanna miss you tonight.
Adam sang the chorus, loudly. He didn't mind if they heard him. Actually, he wanted someone to hear him. He wanted the girl in the next room to hear him, because that song was for her.
And I don't want the world to see me
Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am
Barbra sat on her bed when she heard Adam's voice. She knew the song, it was one of her favorites. Could Adam be singing it for her? The girl walked towards the wall that separated their rooms.
And you can't fight the tears that ain't coming
Or the moment of truth in your lies
When everything feels like the movies
Yeah, you bleed just to know your alive
Adam walked towards the wall too, singing.
And I don't want the world to see me
Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am.
Adam and Barbra placed their hands on the wall. Barbra felt the tears forming in her eyes. Adam sang again, this time even louder, even more beautifully. If Barbra didn't accept his feelings, she would at least hear them.
And I don't want the world to see me
Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am
Adam sang the last part, and a couple tears rolled down his cheeks.
I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am
Adam thought about Barbra. He thought about her smile, her voice, her eyes, her hair, the way she said his name, the way she expressed herself, everything that made him love her. The way she looked at him when he said "I love you", her eyes filled with sadness. The way her voice was barely audible when she said "I love you too". And those words weren't as wonderful as Adam wanted them to be, because she said it so sadly, like it was a curse. And it was somehow, being in love with your own cousin…
Barbra let the tears fall. She loved Adam, she loved him crazily, and she just couldn't imagine a life without him. She knew that she loved him ever since they were kids, and she also knew that it wasn't right, but she just couldn't help it.
Both of them took their hands off the wall and returned to their beds, with tears visible on their faces.
"Seriously, I don't get it!"
"Well, Lizzie, you did your best"
"I know, Sam, but still!" Elizabeth sighed, and leaned on the wall "Adam sang a song to her last night"
"Which one?" Sam asked.
"Iris. Barbra loves that song. But it wasn't face to face anyway, they were in separate rooms. I heard it from the living room."
"And how do you know that the song was for her?"
"It was obvious." Elizabeth sighed again "Why don't they just stop suffering and get together?"
"Well, obviously they're confused."
"No, Adam is willing to do it, Barbra is the one who is confused."
Someone knocked the door of Sam's bedroom.
"Come in" the girl said.
Sam mom entered the room, smiling. She had the same big brown eyes that Sam had, but her hair was darker and less wavy. Sam's mom was a very pretty woman, and Elizabeth loved her. She was one of the nicest persons she knew.
"Hey girls" she said "Do you want something to eat?"
"No, thanks, mom" Sam said.
"No, thank you" Elizabeth said, smiling.
"Well, if you need something, just call me." Sam's mom said, leaving the room.
"Okay!" both girls said at the same time.
"My mom's really happy" Sam said, smiling.
"Why?"
"Because we're friends again. When we moved to Tennessee, I was always sad. I missed you a lot."
"I missed you too. I cried almost every night" Elizabeth said with a sad smile.
"Do you remember when we said goodbye?" Sam asked, moving closer to her.
"Yes." Elizabeth blushed a little "I think that moment helped me to survive, somehow."
"Please, Sam, don't go!" Elizabeth hugged her tightly, refusing to let her get into the cab.
"Lizzie, I have to" Sam said, putting her hands on her shoulders.
"Please, stay!"
Sam felt her shoulder getting wet from Elizabeth's tears. Her own tears, which she was trying to contain until then, started to come out from her eyes.
"I love you…" Elizabeth whispered. "I love you so much…"
Sam gasped. They had said that to each other several times before. But this time it was different. This time, they both knew what it meant, and they both knew it was requited.
"I love you too, Lizzie" Sam said.
Elizabeth looked at her, her blue eyes shining because of the tears. Sam used her thumb to wipe away a tear from her friend's cheek, and then she smiled softly, her own tears running down her face.
"But I can't stay. I wish I could" Sam said "I wish I could spend every day of my life with you, but I just…" she sobbed, and bit her lip "I just can't…"
"We'll see each other again" Elizabeth said "And when we do, I want you to remember this."
Then, she kissed Sam. Their lips met, finally. They had been expecting this for a long time, but it wasn't how they wanted it to be., because it was a goodbye kiss. They parted, and looked at each other in the eyes, intensely.
"I will remember it. I promise." Sam said.
The girls hugged again, burying their faces in each other's shoulders, their arms secured around each other, like they never wanted to let go. But they had to, eventually. With a final look, Sam got into the cab. When it started to move, Elizabeth felt the urge to run after it, like in the movies. But she didn't. She stood there, in front of her house, crying, watching her friend go.
"Lizzie, honey…" Kurt said, coming out of the house, followed by Blaine and Adam. "Are you okay?"
Elizabeth turned around, and threw herself into Kurt's arms, crying loudly. Her father hugged her tightly against his chest, whispering soothing words and caressing her back.
"Papa…" Elizabeth said between sobs.
"I know, I know…" Kurt said, comforting his thirteen year old daughter.
As she cried, the girl could still feel Sam lips against hers, she could still smell her, like she was next to her. But she wasn't. She was gone.
"Do you still feel the same for me?" Elizabeth asked.
Sam looked at her, and put a strand of Elizabeth's hair behind her ear.
"I don't know" she answered "It's been a while since that moment."
"Did you have a girlfriend when we were away from each other?" Elizabeth asked.
"Yes, just one. Her name was Courtney. But I didn't love her as much as I loved you."
"Why did you break up?"
"She became a bitch. She treated me like I was worthless. So I broke up with her." Sam said "What about you?"
"Her name was Alison. She was nice but we didn't have a lot of chemistry."
They remained silent for a while.
"Do you… do you think you could feel the same for me again?" Elizabeth asked.
"I still have strong feelings for you" Sam said, taking her hands "But I just need to be sure about it. We haven't seen each other in a long time."
"I understand" Elizabeth said "But I want you to know that I still love you, as much as I did before. And I'll wait for you, all my life if it's necessary."
They smiled, and pressed their foreheads together, looking into each other's eyes.
"Let's go, Barbra." Elizabeth said.
"Wait, I think I left something in the choir room. I'll be right back."
Barbra ran to the choir room. She stepped inside. The girl could see someone sitting in the piano, playing random notes. She didn't recognize him.
"What are you doing?" she asked.
The boy jumped, surprised. He turned around. The boy had curly brown hair, and blue eyes. Also, he was one of the most handsome boys Barbra had ever seen.
"I'm sorry!" he apologized "I'm Jonathan. Jonathan St. James."
"I'm Barbra Hudson." the girl said, walking towards him "Can I help you?"
"Well, I wanted to join the Glee Club. But I was too nervous, so I just stood there trying to decide if I should get in and ask for an audition" Jonathan said, blushing.
"I have an idea" Barbra said, sitting next to him "Why don't you audition for me? If you're good enough I can ask Miss Schue if you can join."
"Really?" the boy said, excited.
"Yeah. I doubt they'll reject you, anyway, we need another member."
"Can you sing with me? It will help me with my nerves" Jonathan asked.
"Sure" Barbra said.
Jonathan coughed, and looked at her. She smiled at him, and he smiled back, shyly. Then, he started to play the piano. Barbra recognized the song. Jonathan started to sing.
I was thinking about you, thinking about me.
Thinking about us, what we gonna be?
Open my eyes, it was only just a dream.
Barbra gaped at him slightly. He had a wonderful voice, and he played the piano perfectly. Amazed, she sang her lines.
I travel back, down that road.
Will you come back? No one knows.
I realize, it was only just a dream.
Jonathan looked at her and kept singing.
I was at the top and I was like I'm in the basement.
Number one spot and now you found your own replacement.
I swear now that I can't take it, knowing somebody's got my baby.
Barbra smiled. The boy was definitely talented.
And now you ain't around, baby I can't think.
I shoulda put it down. Shoulda got that ring.
Cuz I can still feel it in the air.
See your pretty face run my fingers through your hair.
Jonathan touched one strand on Barbra's hair, smiling, as he kept singing.
My lover, my life. My baby, my wife.
You left me, I'm tied.
Cuz I know that it just ain't right.
They sang together, their voices fitting perfectly.
I was thinking about you, thinking about me.
Thinking about us, what we gonna be?
Open my eyes; it was only just a dream.
I travel back, down that road.
Will you come back? No one knows.
I realize, it was only just a dream
Barbra took the lead. Jonathan kept looking at her, amazed with her beautiful voice.
When I'm riding I swear I see your face at every turn.
I'm trying to get my usher on, but I can let it burn.
And I just hope you'll know you're the only one I yearn for.
No wonder I'll be missing, when I'll learn?
The lyrics reminded her of Adam, but she shook her head, and kept singing.
Didn't give you all my love, I guess now I got my payback.
Now I'm in the club thinking all about you baby.
Hey, you were so easy to love.
But wait, I guess that love wasn't enough.
Adam's face kept coming to her mind, no matter how hard she tried to get rid of it.
I'm going through it every time that I'm alone.
And now I'm wishing that you'd pick up the phone.
But she made a decision that she wanted to move one.
Cuz I was wrong...
Jonathan and Barbra sang together again, looking at each other.
I was thinking about you, thinking about me.
Thinking about us, what we gonna be?
Open my eyes, it was only just a dream.
So I travel back, down that road.
Will you come back? No one knows.
I realize, it was only just a dream
They kept singing, and their eyes never left each other.
If you ever loved somebody put your hands up.
If you ever loved somebody put your hands up.
And now they're gone,and you're wishing you could give them everything.
Barbra raised her hand slowly, and Jonathan did the same, both with a sad smile on their faces.
Ohhh, if you ever loved somebody put your hands up.
If you ever loved somebody put your hands up.
And now they're gone,
and you wish you could give them everything.
Barbra and Jonathan sang whole-heartedly, still looking at each other.
I was thinking about you, thinking about me.
Thinking about us, what we gonna be?
Open my eyes,
it's just a dream
I travel back, down that road
Will you come back? No one knows
I realize, it was only just a dream
Barbra felt an urge to cry, but she suppressed it. She kept singing with Jonathan.
I was thinking about you, thinking about me.
Thinking about us, what we gonna be?
Open my eyes,
it's just a dream
I travel back, down that road
Will you come back? No one knows
I realize, it was only just a dream
Jonathan sang his line perfectly.
Baby, it was only just... it was only just a dream.
Finally, they sang the last part.
No... Ohhh...
It was only just a dream...
Jonathan played the last notes, concentrated. When he finished, he looked at Barbra.
"Wow, your voice is beautiful!" Barbra said.
"Yours too" Jonathan smiled.
"I'm sure Miss Schue will accept you. Why don't you come tomorrow?"
"Of course!" Jonathan stood up and hugged her. Barbra laughed "Thank you!"
"No problem"
Then, she remembered that Elizabeth was waiting for her.
"Damn! I gotta go! Bye!" she said, and she left the choir room, running.
"Where the hell were you!" Elizabeth asked when she got to her.
"Sorry, I got distracted. Let's go."
As they left the school, Barbra thought about the boy she just met, and smiled unconsciously.
