A Choir AU in which Tom Kazansky is smitten with Pete Mitchell from first sight, but their initial spark turns into jealousy and hurt when Pete doesn't keep a promise. Inspired by Antonio Estevez's Cantata Criolla Gentle Rivals to Lovers if you squint. Hurt and jealously turn into attraction. --- The stranger was alight with a joy Tom hadn’t seen so genuinely given in a long time. Those he found himself typically surrounded by wore masks of amusement; comedy and tragedy in their own right. In the rooms Tom found himself in on a typical day he felt like a court jester among stanch aristocracy, the soul of a performer tucked away in a too stiff suit, his tie a constant reminder of his too neat speech pulled tight against his neck. There were few places and times where he felt the joy radiate through him authentically. Typically he was on a stage, performing to a backdrop of music that made his soul sway. A tuxedo felt more at home than a traditional suit, his voice an instrument of story telling. He felt connected there, to something larger than himself.
