Hey guys thank you all so much for your reviews and I am sorry for not updating sooner hope it was worth the wait
Also I wanna thank YOURDORKALWAYS again for editing this for me couldn't do this without you
Also I do not own the amazing song 'just the way you are' by Bruno Mars
Everyone turned in surprise.
"Wow ,ok. Great Mike, come on down." Everyone cheered as he stepped down and faced the crowd.
He was a little nervous. He'd never really sang by himself before, nonetheless in front of immense groups of people. "Uh, hi guys. The song is called 'Just The Way You Are' by Bruno Mars." They all nodded in approval.
He stood ready as the music started.
"Ah
Ah
Ah
Oh her eyes her eyes
Make the stars look like their not shining
Her hair her hair
Falls perfectly without her trying
She's so beautiful
And I tell her everyday,"
He looked at Tina as he started to sing, hoping she would recognize the meaning behind what he was doing.
"Yeah
I know I know
When I compliment her she won't believe me
And its so its so
Sad to think that she don't see what I see
But every time she asks me do I look ok
I'll say,"
Trying to add his genuine emotion into it, everyone was mesmerized by his song.
"When I see your face
There's not a thing that I would change
Cause you're amazing
Just the way you are
And when you smile
The whole world stops and stares for awhile
Cause girl you're amazing
Just the way you are."
Artie scowled as he saw Tina smile and rock side to side as she enjoyed the music. At this point, he knew he would have to think of something good to separate the happy pair.
"Yeah
Her lips, her lips
I could kiss them all day if she'd let me
Her laugh her laugh
She hates but I think's It's so sexy
She's so beautiful
And I tell her everyday
Oh you know you know you know
I'd never ask you to change
If perfects what your searching for
Then just stay the same
So don't even bother asking if you look ok
You'll know I'll say,"
Tina adored the song. Secretly fantasizing of Mike saying all those sweet things to her, she blushed furtively to herself.
"When I see your face
There's not a thing that I would change
Cause you're amazing
Just the way you are
And when you smile
The whole world stops and stares for awhile
Cause girl you're amazing
Just the way you are
The way you are
The way you are
Girl you're amazing
Just the way you are
When I see your face
There's not a thing that I would change
Cause you're amazing
Just the way you are
And when you smile
The whole world stops and stares for awhile
Cause girl you're amazing
Just the way you are
Yeah."
As he finished the last line, everyone cheered heartily. Mike flushed as he got a standing ovation.
Mr. Schu jogged up to him with a cheesy grin on his face. "Wow Mike! That was amazing. Where having you been hiding?"
At the end of the session when everyone left, Mike stayed behind. He put on his favorite mix CD and started to dance. It always relaxed him.
As he was getting into the rhythm, he failed to notice he was being watched, until a body came and joined him. When one of his moves forced him to hold his hand out to the side as if to ask someone to dance, he was surprised to feel a hand connect.
He turned to see a smiling Tina holding his hand. Smiling in response, he pulled her towards him and the pair danced to the music as if it was second nature to them.
Neither noticed Artie spying from Mr. Schu's office. He snuck in the room to wait until Mike was alone, though he hadn't expected Tina to come back.
When the music finally faded out, the two teens sat down breathless. "Wow Mike. That was amazing."
He grinned again. "Yeah I know, you surprised me."
She blushed. "I came back to get my jacket and saw you dancing. I wasn't gonna disturb you but then when I tried to get past you, your hand came and it was just instinct I guess."They both laughed.
"I really liked your song today," she said in praise.
"Thanks," humbly smiling. "You know, I've noticed something. You haven't stuttered when you talk to me in a while."
Tina's face paled. Oh no, she thought. If I tell him the truth he might act like Artie.
She nervously clasped her hands. But then he isn't like Artie. Maybe I should just do it like ripping off a band-aid.
Preparing to lunge in with the truth, she anxiously brought her eyes to his. "Well, the truth is .. I don't have a stutter. I created it years ago and it stuck."
He was surprised by her admission. "Really? Why?"
She looked down ashamed. "I don't know really. It just made me different."
Mike nodded in thought. "Is that why Artie stopped talking to you and everything?"
She nodded as a silent tear crept down her face.
Mike caught it and lifted her face to meet his. "You have nothing to be ashamed of. Lots of people do things like that. I'm not gonna judge you on something you did when I didn't know you." He gently stroked her cheek as she smiled.
"Really?" she asked. He just nodded and brought his face closer to hers and just as there lips were about to meet a loud crash from the hallway interrupted them causing them to jump apart.
"I should probably get home, see you tomorrow Mike," she said as she collected her things and walked out of the rehearsal room.
Mike sighed. I was that close he thought, as he to gathered his things and left, still unaware of Artie watching from the office.
Let me no what you think please review
