Nirvana one-shots

Talented boy

As I stared at Kurt, I couldn’t help but feel anxiety pulse throughout my entire body. I knew that I was overreacting. There was no reason for me to be this anxious. This is Kurt. My boyfriend. Yet, for some reason, I thought of him as the amazing musician he was right now. Not my lover.

“Come on.” Kurt urged. “Tell me the song that you have been thinking about. You know that I’m not going to judge you, right?” 

“I know you won’t judge me.” I told him. “That’s one of the problems. I don’t want you to tell me that my song is amazing when in reality it stinks because you feel obligated too because we are dating. I want you to tell me the truth.” 

“I’m going to tell you the truth.” Kurt promised. “I won’t sugarcoat anything. I’ll make sure that I tell you my honest thoughts. Alright?” 

“Alright…” I said, believing him. “It also doesn’t help I’m judging myself.” 

“Don’t judge yourself, Dave.” Kurt urged. “You are very talented, and I know you can do this. Alright? Just tell me everything.” 

Taking a deep breath, I closed my eyes before opening them. Staring at Kurt and seeing the happy grin on his face made me feel calm enough to speak.

“Before I joined Nirvana, I was thinking about starting my own band named Foo Fighters. I didn’t though because I knew it was going to be hard because I’m not well known in the industry. So, I joined a few bands until I got here, and I have been plotting out songs ever since then. One of my songs i-Is called Everlong…” 

“Tell me about it then.”

Gulping, I made myself speak again.

“Everlong is the song I spent the most time rewriting and writing. I started it before I met you, but after I met you and got close with you, I slowly molded the lyrics to fit you and how I feel about you…” 

“So, you wrote a song about me?” Kurt asked, a grin plastered on his face.

Seeing that look on Kurt’s face made my face turn bright red with blush. 

“K-Kinda…” 

“Sing me some of the lyrics.”

Because of how flustered I was, I knew that my voice wasn’t going to be the best. But I was still going to try my best for Kurt. My love deserves the best. 

Taking a deep breath, I decided to sing a part of the chorus. 

“And I wonder

When I sing along with you

If everything could ever feel this real forever

If anything could ever be this good again

The only thing I'll ever ask of you

You've got to promise not to stop when I say you win

She sang…” 

After I sang, I stared at Kurt, desperate for his response. I didn’t want him to judge me differently because we are dating, but at the same time, I hoped that he would praise me and tell me how much he loved it.

“I knew that you were talented. But I didn’t know you were this talented. You are so good at singing that you could sing for Nirvana as the lead.” Kurt praised.

“R-Really?” I asked. “Y-You aren’t just saying that?” 

“I’m not just saying that.” Kurt vowed. “You really are talented and skilled. You are going to hit it big one day. I just know that.” 

Hearing Kurt praise me like that made joy pulse throughout my entire body, and I couldn’t help but let out happy noises. I was so close to flapping my hands up and down or stimming in a way, but I controlled myself because I knew that I would be embarrassed if I did that.

Kurt says that I can do it whenever, but I still find it kind of embarrassing, so I try to control myself. 

“You are so cute.” Kurt smiled. “I love you so much. 

“I love you too.” 

“Come here.” 

Even though Kurt ordered me to do something, he leaned forward and cupped his hand under my chin before pulling me close and kissing me. Warmth pulsed throughout my entire body as I felt his lips press against mine. I eagerly kissed him back, rubbing my hands up and down his body.

When Kurt broke the kiss, he just stared up at me, love clearly in his gaze.

“You really are a talented boy. My talented boy.” 

Hearing Kurt say that made me feel so happy that I wondered if I was going to have a heart attack.

“T-Thank you…” 

“You’re welcome.” Kurt then added. “Meeting you and adding you to Nirvana was one of the best choices that I could have ever made.” 

I never felt more loved than I have in this moment. I was going to do everything in my power to make Kurt happy and turn Nirvana into one of the greatest bands the world has ever seen.
