Disclaimer: I have no claim on Glee, the characters, Cold Play or Fix You.
A/N: I know that Fix You was sung by Mr Schuester to Ms Pilsbury but I thought it would work equally well for this scenario, and in truth, I'd have liked it better, there should be a 'Quick Fix' for everything Glee! My other choice was a Paul Young song that I may use for something else….
Two days later, everyone was already sat in the choir room, chatting, trying not to listen to Rachel dictating a set list for Sectionals that would suit her absolutely perfectly, including a solo for her, a duet for her and Finn and a group number where she and Finn would take the leads. Mr Schuester came in carrying some sheet music.
"Ok guys, we need to decide what we're going to sing and then get practicing. This week's lesson is going to be…" Mr Schue was cut off, interrupted by Puck.
"Excuse me, Mr Schue? I already have something I'd like to sing, if that's ok?" Puck said, standing up.
"Sure, go ahead Puck," Mr Schue smiled. "Let's hear it"
Rachel did not look pleased. "That's twice now this week my singing time has been taken up by selfish people wanting to do their own songs," she thought to herself. "Some people have no consideration for others".
Puck brought a stool to the front of the class and sat down facing his friends. He looked directly at Quinn so that she'd know he was singing this to her, then he began….
(Puck)
"When you try your best, but you don't succeed
When you get what you want, but not what you need
When you feel so tired, but you can't sleep
Stuck in reverse
And the tears come streaming down your face
When you lose something you can't replace
When you love someone, but it goes to waste
Could it be worse?
Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you
And high up above or down below
When you're too in love to let it go
But if you never try you'll never know
Just what you're worth
(all)
Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you
Tears stream down on your face
When you lose something you cannot replace
Tears stream down on your face
And I...
Tears stream down on your face
I promise you I will learn from my mistakes
Tears stream down on your face
And I..."
Puck stood and walked over to Quinn. He took her hands and helped her to stand up, facing him. Puck's hands went to her face, his thumbs wiping away the tears that were streaming down it.
(Puck - a cappella)
"Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you"
Puck gathered Quinn into his arms and hugged her. The whole group jumped up to gather in a big, tearful hug, Puck and Quinn in the centre.
"Does this mean you're back together now?" asked Mercedes
"Yeah" they replied together. Quinn smiled up at Puck. "Finally," she whispered. "No more drama?"
"No more drama," he agreed smiling back at her.
"Will you be wanting to sing to each other again this week?" asked Rachel "because we do have a lot of practicing to do and although I….."
She was cut off by everyone groaning her name "Aaarrrghhh Rachel!" and shouts of "Leave them alone".
They did sing to each other again, just not with an audience.
