Disclaimer: I don't own Glee, nor do I completely own Nick and Jeff (although I'm pretty much creating their personalities myself since we haven't gotten to know them too well on the show).
A/n: So, when I think of this word, the first song that comes to mind is "I'm Yours" by Jason Mraz. And as soon as I thought of that, I KNEW that I had to use that somehow for this word…
Ukulele
If there was one thing that you could always expect the Warblers to do at Dalton, it was to surprise everyone with their surprise performances. So when Nick came to the whole group – minus Jeff, of course – to propose a specific performance without the tall blonde, it wasn't all that difficult for the group to arrange it.
To be honest, a large part of why Nick wanted to do the song had to do with the fact that Jeff had been particularly miserable lately, given the fact that he had been banned from Warblers rehearsals lately thanks to a nasty case of strep throat. Which also meant that he and Nick couldn't get too close to one another for fear of Nick catching the infection just in time for Regionals – a disastrous possibility given the fact that Nick was intended to be their lead soloist for the competition.
The biggest issue with planning the performance was the fact that Nick wanted to break with tradition. It had taken a lot of convincing for Thad to agree to let Nick play the ukulele, but he'd finally agreed. Which was why they were currently in the Senior Commons, waiting for the school to come listen to them on Jeff's first day back to classes.
"I'm not prepared for a performance… I don't even think I'm supposed to be singing yet," Jeff replied. Nick smiled, shaking his head over the fact that Jeff somehow still thought that this performance was a rehearsal for Regionals.
"Then why don't you sit this one out? It won't sound perfect, but we need to make sure your voice is okay for the competition," Nick replied, pressing a kiss against his boyfriend's cheek as the rest of the school filed into the room. "I should get over there… we don't have a lot of time before they make all of us go back to class." Nick hurried over to the corner where Trent, Andrew, and a few of the other Warblers were waiting – all positioned carefully so that no one would see the ukulele until they were ready to start. Nick grabbed the instrument, strumming out the first few bars.
"Well you dawned on me and you bet that I felt it,
I tried to be chill but you're so hot that I melted,
I fell right through the cracks
Now I'm trying to get back
Before the cool done run out
I'll be giving it my bestest
Nothing's going to stop me but divine intervention
I reckon it's again my turn,
To win some or learn some
"But I won't hesitate no more, no more
It cannot wait, I'm yours…"
Nick walked towards Jeff as he sang, backed up by the other Warblers who all thought it was pretty funny to see the blonde blush. It was kind of hard for Nick to avoid rushing through the song; he wanted nothing more than to walk over and press a kiss against his boyfriend's lips. Finally they got to the end of the song, and the rest of the group dropped out.
"But I won't hesitate no more, no more
It cannot wait, I'm yours."
The whole room burst into applause as Nick finished, smiling and leaning in for a soft kiss.
