"Unforgettable That's What You Are"
Chapter Twelve
Rory watched as Jesse climbed the stairs to stand next to Noah. Speaking to him about a song he wanted to sing. Noah nodded and Jesse smile like a Cheshire cat, and watched Sam and Rachel finish their song by Ben Sharkey.
She shook her head and felt bad for Step. She would soon know what kind of man Jesse really was. She was not looking forward to hearing about her heart break.
"What has gotten you all in a twist Mary?"
"Oh just that jerk on stage! That's Rachel's ex, he just won't take a hint and leave her alone" she said with disgust of his next ploy. She knew Rachel's past about people singing songs to her and her falling for them. She did not want her friend to be tugged back into that mess.
"Ah I know him, well I am acquainted with his manager" Tristan explained
"So you know what kind of man he really is then?"
"Only the charming version, but not to the kind of man you are implying"
"He reserves that kind of behaviour for only the 'special'" she told him, and he smiled reassuringly to her.
"Thank you Nora and Jane. That was a lovely song, brings me back to when I was in high school" Noah said with a smile, he was a very good MC indeed! "Please welcome Broadway performer, Jesse St James to sing two songs for us today 'Please Forgive Me' by Bryan Adams and 'Rolling In The Deep' by Adele" the room applauded the brown curly haired man.
Still feels like our first night together
Feels like the first kiss
It's getting better baby
No one can better this
Still holding on, you're still the one
First time our eyes met
Rachel wanted to throttle Jesse St James right there on stage, wishing she didn't care who was around. But she just stood their speaking to a fellow cast member. Idly commenting on how 'great and fantastic Jesse was, and why did we ever break the union'.
Same feeling I get
Only feels much stronger
Wanna love you longer
You still turn the fire on
She really wished she could take the blinders off everyone eyes, and show them his true self. There was no doubt that he was very talented and very good looking, but she just didn't like the person he showed her.
So if you're feelin' lonely don't
You're the only one I ever want
I only wanna make it good
So if I love you a little more than I should
Other people commented on her relationship with Jesse. Asking if they were still together or not. "No we severed ties a couple of months ago" and "Sometimes things just don't go as planned" and her favourite line, "Oh we would love to be together, but it's just so hard with our busy schedules to be in each other's lives".
Please forgive me I know not what I do
Please forgive me I can't stop loving you
Don't deny me this pain I'm going through
Please forgive me I need you like I do
Please believe me every word I say is true
Please forgive me I can't stop loving you
Lots of "Oh no", "Oh that's a shame", "Oh I wished you would get back together, you were perfect together".
Still feels like our best times are together
Feels like the first touch
Still getting closer baby
She grabbed another glass of champagne from the waiter, still mingling with guests and acquaintances tell her the same things over and over again.
Can't get close enough
Still holding on you're still number one
I remember the smell of your skin
I remember everything
I remember all your moves
I remember you, yeah
I remember the nights, you know I still do
So if you're feeling lonely don't
You're the only one I ever want
I only want to make it good
So if I love you a little more than I should
"Rachel must be seething with anger" Kurt whispered to Blaine
"Yes I could swear I can hear the thoughts going through her ears" Blaine said with amusement.
"I know" Kurt hugged his partner tightly, feeling bad for his friend.
Please forgive me I know not what I do
Please forgive me I can't stop loving you
Don't deny me this pain I'm going through
Please forgive me I need you like I do
Yeah, believe me every word I say is true
Please forgive me I can't stop loving you
The one thing I'm sure of, is the way we made love
The one thing I depend on, is for us to stay strong
"I thought Rachel said they were over?" Quinn asked Britney
"Oh they are" she conceded with shock
"Didn't he come with Step?"
"Yup, I hope she doesn't think what we already know, poor dear" Britney shook her head at Jesse.
"Yes just hope that he doesn't make a spectacle here" she shook her head also, and scanning the room for Step or Rachel.
With every word and every breath I'm prayin', it's why I'm saying
Please forgive me I know not what I do
Please forgive me I can't stop loving you
Don't deny me this pain I'm going through
Please forgive me if I need you like I do
Babe, believe me every word I say is true
Please forgive me if I can't stop lovin' you
No, believe me I don't know what I do
Please forgive me if I can't stop loving you
Can't stop loving you
Jesse waited for the applause to die down before he sang his next song. "Rachel will you please come up here and sing with me like old times?" Rachel smiled to everyone as she walked through the crowd and towards the stage, everyone applauding them.
