Guardian Angel

Chapter 7

    When the next Monday arrived my heart had no life force to hold me together. It had been a week and I have had no contact with my Angel. Not even Casey has had the strength to put up with me anymore.

     Sure she understood how I was feeling, she’d felt it herself. But when sadness hits me, I really take it hard. And trust me, when love is apart of this equation – although it’s never happened before – it defiantly would be worse.

     Although every time I was sad, dancing would make it so much better. But even ballet wasn’t enough right now. Not with the predicament I was in now.

     That evening I was sat in ballet watching the others dance, while I still tried to think of a song. I lay my head on the table I was sat at, and I began to sing a song to myself. But a song I had only heard once.

     “This is the hardest thing I’ve had to say, but I’ve been falling for you, every step of the way. Ohh I hope it’s not wrong, to have fallen in love with you” I sighed heavily wishing I knew the rest of the words.

    “That was a nice song Ang” Casey said, I turned to see her stood next to me. She was breathing heavily from the amount of dancing she had been doing.

     “Thanks” I said, half smiling at her. I knew I had to make an effort for her; I’d pissed her off enough these past months.

    “Do you know the rest of the song?” She asked, grabbing a chair to sit next to me. I shook my head no “Sorry I don’t know the rest, I’ve only heard it once. It’s not even a real song” I laughed.

      Casey was confused “If it’s not a real song how did you…” she started, only stopping when I looked at her. “Oh, it was that sort of song.” I sighed, putting my head on my hands. But Casey was having none of that.

      “Hey now! You might have your dance song there; it’s soft, calm, and emotional. It’s perfect!” She cried “You could write the rest of the words. You loved to write poetry, a song is just the same as that.” Smiling at me she quickly hoped up and rushed to grab a pen and paper.

       Watching her go I suddenly became highly inspired with the song writing. My mind filled with so many ideas, but being me it was obvious the only words that came to mind were ones that described the one whom I wanted to sing it with.

      Casey came back with the pen and paper and as soon as they hit the table I began writing. “Wow, you really do want to write this song” Casey commented while looking over my shoulder.

       I’d written the first verse and to make sure it was OK I started to sing it “Mysterious stranger, my heart is in danger, it’s hard to know were we will begin. When he turned and looked my way, I knew that one daaay…” I hoped it sounded good, turning to Casey I saw her mouth gaping open at me.

       Confused I asked “What? Why are you staring at me like that?” was I really that bad? But when Casey began to laugh my confusion went through the roof.

      “Ang I’m sorry I didn’t mean to laugh, it was a surprised laughter” Casey said “You were amazing! I didn’t know you could sing?”

       I could sing? “Casey, don’t be stupid of course I can’t sing.” I thought to myself and I continued “Well, I don’t know if I can, the only time I’ve sung to myself is if I was in the shower.” I said bashfully.

      Once again Casey laughed “Oh babe you’re so modest about yourself, trust me, you really are an amazing singer.” I smiled, and with those words I continued to write the words to my song.
