Chapter 6 - Baby I Can See Your Halo
Really had my doubts aboutt his one, but alas, here it is... R&R please :) XxX P.S thanks for any reviews that have been sent in... I'm open to ideas so if you want to see something happen and i think it fits, i may include it :)
Kurt's POV.
I was glad that Sam had came to the hospital. His revelations helped distract me from the days happenings for a little while, but when we were shopping in the supermarket, my mind drifted back to Finn and his saviour, Noah Puckerman. What if they aren't okay? What if the worst happens. And for what must have been the millionth time today, I started crying. I tried to turn away from Sam, but even though he was a little goofy at times, he was still sharp. He put a comforting hand around my shoulders, and held me close to his chest.
"I-I-I'm so sorry Sam. I'm such a wreck today," I blabbered.
"Kurt, I understand, I do, honestly, when my sister was in hospital getting a brain tumour removed, I was beyond worried, I cried for a day straight, until she woke up and was okay," Sam reassured me.
We walked around the supermarket aimlessly, picking up anything we thought the four of us might enjoy. After we had six bags of Doritos, and several flavours of dip, endless bags of candy, high in caffeine energy drinks, and lots of non-diet coke, we went to the check out. I was shocked to see who was behind the counter. Santana Lopez was smiling at us, which was strange, seeing as she rarely smiled at anyone unless they were experiencing emotional or physical pain.
"Hey Lady, how's it going?" she said cheerily.
"Not too bad, Santana, I didn't know you worked here!" I exclaimed, trying to seem pleased to be talking to her. Not that I wasn't, but I really wasn't in the mood to be explaining pleasantries with people I didn't even like that well.
"This is my first weekend, I'm so happy to have a job, but its so boring!" she complained.
I rolled my eyes mockingly, kind of. "But at least you are being paid for being bored, its more than me and Sam can say," I added forcing out a fake, yet convincing chuckle.
"I know right. So, what are you guys up to? I didn't know you hung out," she asked sweetly, but deep down I feared that she was digging for gossip.
"Finn sent us on a food run, Puck and Sam are over, but Sam volunteered to help out," I lied, I really didn't want to keep talking like this.
"Sounds cool, I may call over later after work, we can have a good gossip, I have such news, its unreal my homo amigo," she said with a devious wink.
"Sure, sounds great, Puck and Finn are going over to Puck's house later, but you are more than welcome to hang out, Cedes and Rachel will be over," I said regretting what I was saying straight away.
"I'm done at eight, so I'll go home and get some stuff and I'll be over. This is great, it seems like, what, ever since we last hung out?" she questioned waiting for me to agree with her, but I merely stared at her blankly, I had to say something.
"Santana, that because it has been forever. I can't remember the last time you said something to me that wasn't mean," I said, but in an honest tone.
"I know Lady, but I'm in a good place right now, it feels nice to be nice,"
What she said was shocking. Santana? Nice? Who'd have thought it? Seriously though, this is nice, I hope she stays nice.
When she had finished she bade us farewell and we left hastily, trying not to make it look obvious. Maybe though, we had gotten off lightly. At least she isn't being mean Santana. But I really shouldn't count my chickens.
"What was that all about?" the tall blonde boy beside me asked.
"I honestly don't know, but she seems to have reformed," I giggled, and beside me so did Sam.
We loaded the car trunk with the junk food we had bought, and disembarked from the supermarket. I drove to Sam's house, which was fifteen minutes away, and he jumped out, telling me he'd be right back. After ten minutes of waiting I saw him emerging from his front door.
"Look what I got," he said with a cheeky wink, as I pulled away from his driveway.
I looked to what he had in his hands. What I saw nearly made me crash the car. He had a large, almost full bottle of vodka.
"SAM EVANS!" I squealed.
"Relax, there's enough for all of us. We won't get that drunk, I promise,"
"Sure, sure, but if you vomit in my room, I swear on holy Gucci, you will never be welcome in my house again," I said trying not to chuckle.
"Whatever, Tinkerbell," he replied, winking once again.
If I was standing I would have fallen to the ground like a lead balloon. His face, his everything sent tendrils of attraction right through every inch of my body, a thing not even Finn could do that well. I turned on the radio and ordered Sam to pick a CD from my vast collection. When he went to put his chosen CD in the player, I tried my best to look at it, but he refused to let me see.
A song I knew all to well blazed out of the speaker, setting my ears alight with both embarrassment and a familiar sensation to dance will my legs could no longer hold me upright.
All the single ladies,
All the single ladies,
All the single ladies,
No put your hands up.
I looked at Sam and he chuckled. He was evil, I was sure of it. No one could be that beautiful yet so funny and nice. Nothing is ever this too good to be true. But still, I wasn't going to add more depressing thoughts to my mind, I just skipped the song and searched for the song I loved most on the album. When I found it I saw Sam beam, he must love this song too. He took me, yet again, by surprise and started singign the first verse, in a pure and beautiful sound.
Remember those walls I built
Well Baby they are tumbling down
And they didn't even put up a fight
They didn't even make a sound
I found a way to let you in
But I never really had a doubt
Standing in the light of your halo
I got my angel now
I joined in and noticed how well our voices moulded. It was even better than mine and Rachel's and our voices were a perfect combination.
It's like I've been awaken
Every rule I had you breakin
It's the risk that I'm taking
I ain't never gonna shut you out
Everywhere I'm looking now
I'm surrounded by your embrace
Baby I can see your halo
You know you're my saving grace
You're everything I need and more
It's written all over your face
Baby I can feel your halo
Pray won't fade away
I can see your halo
I can feel your halo
I can see your halo
I can feel your halo
Hit me like a ray of sun
Burning through my darkest night
You're the only one that I want
Think I'm addicted to your light
I swore I'd never fall again
But this don't even feel like falling
Gravity can't begin
To pull me back to the ground again
It's like I've been awaken
Every rule I had you breakin'
It's the risk that I'm taking
I'm never gonna shut you out
Everywhere I'm looking now
I'm surrounded by your embrace
Baby I can see your halo
You know you're my saving grace
You're everything I need and more
It's written all over your face
Baby I can feel your halo
Pray won't fade away
I can see your halo
I can feel your halo
I can see your halo
I can feel your halo.
When the song finished, I had tears in my eyes, not because of Finn, or Puck, but because the emotion Sam had put into this duet as astounding. It had been like he had practiced for this every day, because he knew this would happen. Was I starting to fall hard for this stunning boy?
