Ted barely has time to return to the table and grab his drink, before Beard is waving for his attention. "Oh, I'm up," he says, giving Joan a look and a smile before he heads towards the little stage.
"Alright, y'all, it's just be this time, sorry about that," he says, gently poking fun at himself to chuckles around the room. (Everyone knows Rebecca's the best singer there.) And he's definitely nervous now, hoo boy.
"Um, I'd like to dedicate this song to.. my girlfriend, Joan," he says, smiling at her.
There are definitely a lot of surprised faces around the room. Which then turns into hoots and whistles as the music starts playing. (Beard does not look surprised, which is in itself unsurprising.)
As for song choice, 'Can't Help Falling In Love' is probably the cheesiest thing Ted could've picked, but it's also perfect. And he doesn't play it up, like he maybe usually would, instead singing it completely sincerely. He's a bit shaky at first, but then he starts singing directly to Joan, and it's like the entire world around him melts away and he's just singing to her.
