Author's Notes: It has been a long time and I apologize for that, my dear readers. I am still going to finish this even though it is almost into the next holiday. Please forgive my tardiness. :3 The songs in this part are Jason Mraz’s “Winter Wonderland”, Glee’s “Christmas Eve With You,” and Glee’s cover of “Do You Hear What I Hear?” . I suggest listening to them at some time. Enjoy!
Chapter Five : A Trio of Beginnings

BEEP. BEEP. BEEP. BEEP.

Kurt groaned and rolled over and hit the snooze button on his alarm clock that had rudely awakened him from his sleep.

"I wonder if it would be okay to skip a day." Kurt suggested to himself. Shaking his head, he got rid of that thought and got out of the bed, made it and started his morning routine of freshening up while thinking of what to wear today. In the few short days that Kurt had been at the school, he had only gotten about one hundred and fifty of the students. He still had quite a few to get, but he figured that at the assembly, it should be easy enough to get them, combined with the last few days of lunch in the cafeteria.

Settling on an outfit, Kurt fiddled with his watch and watched as his pyjamas turned into black pants, black boots, a red dress shirt with a white knit, one armed asymmetrical sweater that only went half way down his torso. Also, he had a white beanie on his head to hide his ears once again.

Thinking back to last night at Blaine's, Kurt sighed, but then mentally smacked himself.

'Human. I can't have any feelings for them like this.' He scolded himself. Kurt made his way downstairs, grabbed some food from the kitchen and headed out for his day at school; which passed in a blur of a day. Class blended into class as he tried to focus on his work and not on Blaine who would be beside him. Lunch was a daze as he went in, scanned, grabbed a bit of cafeteria food and chose to wander as he ate. Before he knew it, the day had blended into glee rehearsal and he was the first one there. Since it spiked his curiosity before, Kurt grabbed a chair, stood on it and looked out the window to behind the room.

And he blinked. It was a small, dead-end alley way behind the school, and in the corner where at least fifteen or so small fairies playing around. A small smile found a way to his lips as he watched them throw snow around, chase each other, danced in the air and just have a merry time. One spotted him and blinked, surprised that someone could see them. It flew close to the window and Kurt gave a small wave. It blinked again and gave a faint jingle sound. Soon after, the whole window was filled with them trying to look at who could see them. As the pushed forward on the window, frost started to gather around their small hands.

"Hi there." Kurt spoke to them softly.

"Who are you talking to Kurt?" a voice came from behind and Kurt nearly fell off his chair. The fairies flew away from the window and hid in various spots. Turning around and jumping off the chair, Kurt saw that most of the members of new directions had entered the room while he was watching out the widow. It was Rory who asked him the question.

"It was nothing really. My mind was just playing tricks on me." Kurt brushed it off and sat properly on the chair. Blaine came in last and took a seat beside Kurt. He opened his mouth to talk Kurt but Mr. Schuester came in and started talking.

"Alright everyone! Let's see what you came up with for these assignments. Finn and Rachel, take us away." He finished and waved his arms to the two in question as they go up to stand in front of the room.

"Most Christmas duets are to be more fun and flirty, Finn and I have chosen a song that can represent both of us at once and still retain that Christmas charm." Rachel explained quickly as she an Finn got ready to sing.

"I thought Rachel was Jewish?" Sam asked aloud as Finn started to sing.


Sleigh bells ring, are you listenin'?
In the lane, snow is glistenin'
A beautiful sight, we're happy tonight
We're walkin' in a winter wonderland

Rachel then comes up from behind Finn and takes over the song,

And gone away

Finn echo's after her,

[Gone away]
Is the blue
[Is the blue bird]

They hold hands and sing together in harmony,

Here to stay, stay, stay is a new bird.
He sings a love song as we go along
We're walkin' in a winter wonderland

Rachel tugs on Finn's hand and walks the length of the room

In the meadow we can build a snowman!
Then pretend that he is Parson Brown!

Finn grins and changes the tone of his voice slightly,

He'll say: "Are you married?"

Rachel laughs and replies,

We'll say: "No man! But you can do the job when you're in town!"

And later on
[Later on]
We'll conspire as we dream by the fire


Both join in once again to harmonize,

We'll face unafraid all the plans that we've made,
We're walkin' in a winter wonderland.

There was an instrumental break and the two grabbed hold of each other and did a small, funky dance around in circles when they started to sing again, repeating what they did before,

And later on
[Later on]
We'll conspire as we dream by the fire
We'll face unafraid all the plans that we've made,
We're walkin' in a winter wonderland.

Finn held one of Rachel's hands and took a single step forward and sang towards the rest of the group,

We'll face unafraid all the plans that we've made,
We're walkin' in a winter wonderland.

Rachel took her own step forward and sang her part to the group,

We'll face unafraid all the plans that we've made,
We're walkin' in a winter wonderland.

Finn finished off the song by lowering his tone as far as he could go,

Walkin' in a winter wonderland.

When Finn finished, the rest of the group politely clapped and Rachel gave Finn a kiss before they took their seats, grinning.

"Good job you two for setting the bar." Mr. Schuester congratulated, "Up next is Brittany and Santana." The two stood up and went to the front of the room now and Santana spoke,

"Now that we have seen the next display of suck-face from Finn and Rachel, me and Britt would like to have our chance to shine." With that, she took Brittany's hand and together, they stood there and sang their song, with Brittany starting out, almost in all seriousness,


I never saw a reindeer fly
Make it's way across the sky
But I know if I close my eyes my wishes will come true
Like the one I've saved for you

Now Santana joined in with a small smile towards Brittany, both slightly swaying,

Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow, let it snow
Don't care it's cold outside
Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow, let it snow
I'll keep you warm tonight
Through the good times and bad
Happy and sad
I'm still holding on
I know what I have
And all that I want is Christmas Eve with you
With you, yeah

Santana took the lead and sang the next verse solo,

The simple things like goin' home
And friends they say you're not alone
Songs of joy they keep you strong make everything okay

Here, Brittany chimed in.

Oh and Santa's on his way (on his way, yeah)

Once again, they both sang together, voices blending together nicely.

Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow, let it snow
Don't care it's cold outside
Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow, let it snow
I'll keep you warm tonight
Through the good times and bad
Though happy and sad
I'm still holding on
I know what I have
And all that I want is Christmas Eve with you
Yeah, yeah, yeah

Brittany walked, skipped almost, around the piano where Brad was playing for them

The sleigh bells are ringing
They're getting real close
I think I hear Rudolf
Just up the road
Candle lights
And nights full of hope
The stars shining bright
Some things never change

Santana followed her around the piano and joined in one last time to finish of the song, linking pinkies with Brittany.

Let it snow, let it snow
The fire's burning bright
Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow, let it snow
I'll keep you warm tonight
It's not just the gifts
Under my tree
The best things in life
I'm totally free
And waitin' for me is Christmas Eve with you
Is Christmas Eve with you

Applause followed after them as they sat down as well. Kurt smiled and made a note to tell everyone when he returned that people have come up with new songs to sing, and not to mention that they were pretty decent ones too.

"Great harmonizing girls. Also, not the traditional boy-girl duet type you hear all the time. I congratulate you two for your duet. Kudos." Mr. Schuester stated, "Next up and last for today, Mike and Tina. Blow us away as well you two." Mike and Tina got up and squeezed hands before letting go and taking their stance in front of the group. The music was quiet, yet powerful as Mike took the lead,


Said the night wind to the little lamb
Do you see what I see, way up in the sky little lamb?
Do you see what I see?
A star, a star dancing in the night
With a tail as big as a kite, with a tail as big as a kite.

Tina now took over singing lead as it fell into the next verse,

Said the little lamb to the shepard boy
Do you hear what I hear, ringing through the sky shepard boy?
Do you hear what I hear?
A song, a song high above the tree
With a voice as big as the sea, with a voice as big as the sea.

Tina started to sing once again,

Said the shepard boy to the mighty king
Do you know what I know?

Mike sang the little part, powerfully.

In your palace wall mighty king?
Do you know what I know

And finally, they sang together, two voices joined together in powerful harmony.

A child, a child shivers in the cold
Let us bring him silver and gold, let us bring him silver and gold
Let us bring him, silver and gold

As the band finished playing, Tina sang a final line, then Mike, then together, one final, ending line.

Do you know what I know?

Do you see what I see?

Do you hear what I hear?


It was silent for a moment, as people where overcome by the job well done by Tina and Mike. The two in question were standing there a bit awkwardly, but Kurt snapped out of it and started to clap enthusiastically; which snapped everyone else out of it and joined in.

"Wow! That was…I'm speechless you two! And Mike! You got quite the vocals on you there!" Mr. Schuester said applauding as well, "Now that we have heard half of you, I'm going to start taking suggestions for our group number. Anyone have anything yet?"

"We Need a Little Christmas." Rachel immediately shouted.

"Welcome Christmas. I always loved The Grinch." Arite said.

"Do They Know It's Christmas." Kurt simply stated. Mr. Schuester was writing all the ideas down on the white erase board, and when he heard Kurt's suggestion he turned around with a grin.

"That is an excellent idea. They created this song to raise money by Band Aid for those in the famine. It's been done by so many artists since then and I think it would be an amazing idea if we did it as well." And with that, the group was dismissed for the day.

"Hey Kurt. Mind if I walk you to the parking lot?" Blaine came up to him and asked. Kurt gave a nod in approval and gathered up his bag and headed towards said parking lot.

"It's still kind of weird that you show up here almost at holiday break." Blaine commented.

"It is, but I guess there couldn't really be any other time for me to do so." Kurt responded. The rest of the walk became slightly awkward for both of them until they stood outside Kurt's vehicle.

"So, about tomorrow…" Blaine trailed off. Kurt gave a slight smile,

"We shouldn't worry. We got this in the bag." He slyly announced. Blaine grinned with a slight blush and looked to his side.

"That's great. And our song is going to be spectacular." he added. They fidgeted for a moment before Blaine opened his mouth to talk,

"Say, would you want to maybe go for coffee this weekend or something? I know this great little coffee shop we could hang out in. That is if you wanted to. Not saying that you have to or anything. I just thought it would be nice if we-"

"Coffee sounds great." Kurt interrupted.

"Great." Blaine repeated. He hesitated before suddenly hugging Kurt and then letting go.

"See you tomorrow then. Be ready to kick butt!" He laughed and jogged over to his own car. Kurt just smiled in his wake and made his way back home. Maybe, just maybe, humans aren't so bad and maybe, just maybe, falling for one isn't that bad as well.

Right?
