There isn't a song so far that Aziraphale hasn't put his heart and soul into, and this is no exception. Some of the people who betted on the two gentlemen dating are having second thoughts. One of the servers, who had worked the night before, confides to the lingering group (in hopes for a better tip), that the songs the blond was singing the previous night were far more unrequited than this one. Les Miserables is mentioned, and even the most cynical member of that group lets out a soft little sigh at the news.
Aziraphale, of course, is obliviious to all this while he sings. Even the applause that follows is barely acknowledged. He only has eyes for Crowley. Which is why he knows immediately that something is wrong. Crowley is never this still, never this silent.
"Too sentimental?" he asks softly when he returns to their table, hoping to break whatever spell Crowley is under. A growing sense of dread fills him from within, freezes the butterflies and shatters their pretty wings. He's screwed this up somehow. "Not appropriate for karaoke?"
Thanks! I'm not very musical savvy so this has been fun research
