Choir Room
“My Freeze-Ray”
Taking a deep breath, he started to sing.
“Laundry day
See you there
Under things
Tumbling.
Wanna say
“Love your hair”
Here I go
Mumbling.”
As he sang he tried to think of someone to sing to. His usual subject was out of the question, mainly because Kurt had a boyfriend and no one knew Dave was gay. Except… Santana and Brittany were sitting in the front, they could work.
“With my freeze-ray I will stop the world
With my freeze-ray I will find the time to find the words to…”
Santana raised an eyebrow, but she gave the tiniest hint of a smile that said she’d play along. He sat in the empty seat next to her, and she pretended to be talking to Brittany, as if he wasn’t there.
“Tell you how
How you make
Make me feel
What’s the phrase?
Like a fool
Kinda sick
Special needs
Any ways.”
Standing up, Dave continued to sing to the group as a whole again, making it as dramatic as he felt comfortable with. Which was actually pretty dramatic considering he was kind of starting to have fun, being able to act out the choreography he’d thought of before. Even if it wasn’t with the person he always imagined.
“With my freeze-ray I will stop the pain
It’s not a death-ray or an ice-beam that’s all Johnny Snow…”
He started focusing on Santana again, maybe a little too much, just to keep himself from even glancing at Kurt.
"I just think you need time to know
That I’m the guy to make it real
The feelings you don’t dare to feel
I’ll bend the world to our will
And we’ll make time stand still.”
He’d slowly walked forward so when the short musical interlude started he was able to hold out his hand, inviting Santana to dance. He was surprised when Brittany took his hand, but went with it. She even knew the actual dance, so he took her through it, and instead of finishing with a dip, he gently deposited her back in her seat.
“That’s the plan
Rule the world
You and me
Any day.”
He spoke to Brittany this time, since she’d been the one to dance with him.
“Love your hair.”
“What?”
Dave wasn’t sure if Brittany was playing along or if she was actually clueless.
“No… I… I… I love the air…” he stuttered, taking a few steps back.
“Anyway
With my freeze-ray I will stop -”
He didn’t have to pretend to stop, because he made the mistake of looking at Kurt in that moment. The look of complete shock on the boy’s face was something he had only seen once, a year ago. Nothing to put him off this whole glee thing than a reminder of that day.
“Um, thanks,” he mumbled, before bolting out the door.
