He wasn't sure exactly when he realized that he had something special with the man that he called his husband. All Adam knew was that they had been friends for a while, even before Tommy knew that he liked guys. Things just progressed in the fast paced way that true love tends to do. After Adam decided to not tour anymore and go into teaching, he didn't know how their relationship would end up going. It ended up being better than he ever imagined. After they got out of the public eye, Adam and Tommy got married. Not that anyone at the school except observant people knew. Neither wore a ring while teaching. Well, Adam wore one but he wore lots of rings so no one thought anything of it. Sure, the other professors knew but that was because they had seen Adam and Tommy together at meetings and things. But they didn't tell the students.
Seeing Tommy in the auditorium, on stage with him again made Adam smile even more than he normally would. It was just like old times, except on a smaller setting. After Tommy questioned why Adam called him there, Adam smiled again. "Damn," he thought, "I have to control this smiling thing around the students. They will so figure this out..." He then looked at his man. "Well, the kids know the music. They just aren't FEELING the music. I know you know how to do that and so do I. I just can't do it well on my own. So I wanted you to come and help out. Sound good?" Adam asked the man standing by him.
Before he could give Tommy another quick kiss, the choir members started coming back into the room. "I will thank ya later, at home." He whispered to Tommy with a sly little grin. Once the students were seated in the seats out in the audience, Adam sat down on the edge stage. "Hey guys. Thanks for coming back. This should only take a little bit, half an hour or so. I know you guys know the music. But you have to FEEL it too. I can explain it but I would rather show it to you. And I wanted some help from someone that you may know." He looked back at Tommy and patted the seat by him. "If you don't know Mr. M over here, then you must not be a music major. But I know that all of you are so I shouldn't have to introduce him." He said with a smile. "We have known each other for a long time now and know how each works. I figured he would be best for me to show you what to do with feeling the music."
Looking over at Tommy, he smiled again. "How about we start off with 'Whataya Want From Me'?" Once the man next to him started playing, he started singing until the end of the song. He let his smooth voice glide over notes like water. "Whataya want from me..." Once done, he looked out into the crowd and saw the faces of the kids out there. It was cool to see them all captivated by just one song. "Now that, ladies and gentleman, is how you FEEL a song." He then turned back to Tommy. "Whats another one that we should do?"
