"Look!" I pointed at the night sky as a shooting star sped over our heads. "Isn't it beautiful!?" My handsome fiancé laughed and nodded.

"Yes, it is. Not as beautiful as the woman I'm looking at though." I blushed and gave Erik's lips a light peck. He playfully glared at me and stole a deeper kiss. I smirked as we parted. It had been three weeks ago when he had asked me to marry him. Oh, I had been waiting months for him to ask me. I loved that man so much.

"Reminds me of the night we first met..." I trailed off. Erik nodded.

"Yes, you were determined to get to know me. You were so stubborn." I blushed.

"Well, you needed the encouragement." He laughed and I relished in the sound.

"Perhaps I did... Remember the first song you ever sang to me?" I nodded and blushed.

"Yes, a song from Tinker Bell of all things!" We laughed together and he kissed my forehead.

"It was a beautiful song. Would you sing it for me again?" I rolled my eyes and began to softly sing.

Strange sight
You stand in the light
You're wrong but you're right
My hearts beating wildly
Strange
How I'm scared but delighted
Afraid but excited too

You have a cold heart
You're reckless and distant
But I'll be persistent
I will understand you
Strange
How I'm drawn to danger
I'll reach out my hand to you

Do you long to be left alone?
Set apart with a heart made of stone
Let me help, let's begin
Let me learn, won't you let me in?
All the light, let it show

You are a strange sight
Some new kind of wonder
With good hidden under
I'm sure that it's true
Strange
How your dark doesn't faze me
No, I won't give up on you

Do you long to be left all alone?
Set apart with a heart made of stone
Let me help, let's being
Let me learn, won't you let me in?
All the light, let it show

If you're caught in the shadow then turn around
Lost in the darkness, you will be found
If you heart my voice, follow the sound
'Cause I'm here to guide you home

Do you long to left all alone?
Set apart with a heart made of stone
Let me help, let's being
Let me learn, won't you let me in?
All the light, let it show

Do you long to be left all alone?
Set apart with a heart made of stone
There's a light that you shine
There's a love, I see it in your eyes
All the dark, let it go

You're not alone

By the end, a tear was coursing down my cheek. The words "you're not alone" meant a lot to Erik. He had always been alone. Just because he had a scarred twisted face.

My hands reached up and removed the mask from his face. Tears were shining in his eyes and I quickly kissed his deformed cheek, laying the mask down beside us.

"You're not alone..." I sang one last time. He smiled and a few tears slipped down his cheeks and kissed me.

"Because of you. Oh, my angel!" He hugged me close and I felt everything he couldn't say. All the emotions that flooded through him. It may have been from a bit of a childish movie but it was our song. It didn't matter where it was from.

I stroked his hair and smiled. We sat there for a long time, looking at the sky and just enjoying each other's company.

Author's Note:

Dear Readers,

Well, I know this isn't much but I wanted to use this song somewhere so I tossed it in here. Yeah, I watch Tinker Bell. It's really cute!!!!! Especially the episode Tinker Bell and the Neverbeast. That's where I got the song from. It sounded so Erik-like. I hope you enjoyed this rather cute one-shot. :)
