Here is the fifth chapter of a fanfic developed by me and a friend of mine.
Pairing: Khashoggi/Galileo
Rating: N/17 for certain chapters.
Characters: All of the characters from the musical and a few OCs.
Disclaimer: I don't own any of the characters in this story (if I did then all the pairings in my fanfic would be true) apart from my OCs.
Author's Note: The story starts during the interrogation scene between Galileo and Khashoggi that took place in the actual musical. I hope everyone likes this story!
Khashoggi slowly walked back towards Galileo whilst smirking. He licked his thumb, leaned closer to Galileo, lightly cleaned the strawberry stain on Galileo's cheek and sucked the substance off. Galileo stood frozen against the worktop.
"I want to show you something." Khashoggi whispered and grabbed onto Galileo's arm. "Come on before I change my mind." He dragged Galileo towards his bedroom and in front of a huge door sized framed photo of what looked like Khashoggi's parents. He let go of Galileo's arm and took a deep breath.
"I-It's a r-really n-nice photo..." Galileo was confused beyond belief.
Khashoggi rolled his eyes. "That's not what I wanted to show you." Khashoggi carefully removed the photograph off the wall to reveal another door that was identical to the one leading into his bedroom. Khashoggi cautiously started to turn the doorknob. "You're the only person I'm ever showing this to. Promise me you won't tell anyone else..." Khashoggi held his breath, waiting for Galileo's response.
Galileo slowly nodded his head and whispered, "P-Promise."
The older man quickly opened the door to reveal a white small room with no windows. In the centre of the room was a small grand piano that looked quite old and very out of place in the entire house.
"Wow... H-how d-did..." Galileo was stunned.
"I was meant to take it to a dump and destroy it, but then my fingers ended up touching the keys and I..." Khashoggi shrugged and rubbed the back of his neck.
"Beautiful..." Galileo chewed on his bottom lip. "P-Play s-something..."
Khashoggi gulped. He had never played the piano in front of anyone before. Khashoggi slowly walked towards the piano and cautiously sat down. "I'm a bit rusty, but I hope you like it..."
Khashoggi started playing a very complicated piece, but his whole body was shaking. Suddenly he stopped. "Maybe I should play something easier..."
"No! T-try a-again..." Khashoggi hadn't noticed how close Galileo had moved towards him. Galileo quietly placed his trembling hands on Khashoggi's shoulders. "P-Please..." He took a deep breath and started rubbing small circles with his thumbs into Khashoggi's shoulders. "It s-sounded g-great. I'm n-not l-lying."
Khashoggi started to relax under Galileo's soothing touch. "O-Okay..." He anxiously started to play the same tune. A few seconds later and Khashoggi fingers danced on the black and white keys more confidently. Word after word began to explode in young Galileo's head and flow out of his mouth.
"Everything about you is how I'd wanna be
Your freedom comes naturally
Everything about you resonates happiness
Now I won't settle for less
Give me all the peace and joy in your mind, ooh"
Galileo gasped. He hadn't meant to sing. Khashoggi didn't stop playing and sang the next verse.
"Everything about you pains my envying
Your soul can't hate anything
Everything about you is so easy to love
They're watching you from above"
Galileo couldn't stop the lyrics from escaping his lips and he began to pour all his pent up emotions with each word.
"Give me all of the peace and joy in your mind
I want the peace and joy in your mind
Give me the peace and joy in your mind, ooh
Everything about you resonates happiness
Now I won't settle for less
Give me all the peace and joy in your mind
I want the peace and joy in your mind
Give me the peace and joy in your mind, ooh"
Galileo swiftly tore his hands away from Khashoggi's shoulders and moved towards the open door.
