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: For the record, I do NOT feel this way about Van Gogh. I have 2 posters of his work hanging on my walls, and he's one of my favorite artists. I just needed a reason for the art teacher to dislike Jeff for this chapter, and that was the first idea that came to mind (well, the first good idea… originally I was going to have it be something to do with comic books, but I couldn't figure out how to word it properly). Also, yes, there really is a band called Chameleon Circuit that creates music about Doctor Who. I think they're brilliant (and I'm not just saying that because my roommate knows them!).

"I don't know why I put myself through all of this… I suck, and it's impossible for me to get a decent grade from Mr. Elsenor. I swear, just because I thought Van Gogh was overrated he now has it out for me," Jeff commented, staring at the blank canvas in front of him.
"You shouldn't have said that after I warned you that Mr. Elsenor had a thing for Van Gogh," Nick replied with a smirk. "Maybe you should introduce him to that episode of Doctor Who… the one where Amy and the Doctor meet Van Gogh and help him get rid of the monster that only he can see…"
Jeff looked at Nick for a moment, thinking about what the other boy had just said. "That's a brilliant idea…"
"What is?" Nick asked, confused.
"For my art project… I should introduce Elsenor to the Doctor." Jeff picked up his brush and started painting.
"Dude, are you sure that's a good idea? I mean, Elsenor is hard… I don't know that painting something connected with a fictional character is going to get you a decent grade. And you need a good grade on this assignment if you want to get a decent grade in the class, because the theory stuff alone won't cut it…" Nick began.
"No, this is perfect," Jeff replied, reaching over with his free hand and setting his iPod to play Chameleon Circuit for a bit more inspiration.
"Why do I think this is going to end badly?"
"Because you don't understand my creative genius," Jeff joked. He winced as he accidentally flicked the bright blue paint onto Nick's bag. "Shit…"
"You got paint on something of mine, didn't you?" Nick asked.
"Yeah."
"Clean it up."
