I just got this idea from listening to "My Cherie Amour" by Stevie Wonder. I hope you enjoy it! As always, reviews are appreciated.

"Nikola's Cherie Amour"
The golden orange light of early morning filtered through the hallway windows of the sanctuary. Helen loved this time of day. The sanctuary was silent and she could relax if only for a while . The sound of Helen's black peep-toe heels the only sound in the long, sunlit, corridor. Well, at least it was until she approached Nikola's room. She walked softly as she leaned in close to the wooden door with a smile slowly appearing across her lips.
"la..la...la...la...la...la..la..la..la..la..la..la...my cherie amour...lovely as a summer day..." Nikola sang aloud.
Helen started to sing along softly as Nikola continued his singing unaware that he had an audience behind the door.
"My cherie amour...distant as the Milky Way...my cherie amour..pretty little one that I adore..you're the only girl my heart beats for..how I wish that you were mine..." Nikola sang as his voice became louder.
"If he only knew I was standing here..." Helen giggled to herself as she continued to listen through the door.
"In a cafe..or sometimes on a crowded street...I've been near you...but you never noticed me...my cherie amour...won't you tell me how could you ignore...that behind that little smile I wore...how I wish that you were mine..." Nikola continued.
Helen thought she heard him move closer to the door but she had been too busy listening and singing along to notice until the door slowly creaked open...
"la...la...la...la...la...la...la...la...la..." Nikola trailed off when he saw Helen standing on the other side of the door.
"la...la...la...la...la...la...la...la...la..." Helen finished the lyric with a smile on her face and a slight giggle.
"How long were you standing by my door, Helen?" Nikola asked with hands on his hips and a slight smirk on his face.
"Long enough to hear you belting out that song." Helen said as she continued to giggle and tried to look at him.
"My cherie amour...pretty little one that I adore...you're the only one my heart beats for...how I wish that you were mine..." Nikola softly sang to her as he brought her closer and looked into her beautiful, sparkling, blue eyes.
Helen leaned in closer as she stared into his mysterious blue-grey eyes and ran her slim fingers through his thick, dark, hair as she sang softly..."la...la...la...la..."
Nikola cut her off with a passionate kiss as they slowly inched back through the open door of Nikola's room.
"You should listen to me sing more often..." Nikola smirked as the wooden door closed behind them. Faintly through the door more singing could be heard.
"la...la...la..." Helen sang in a seductive manner that ended with a giggle.
"la...la...la..." Nikola responded in an equally seductive tone.
Then the singing stopped and all that could be heard was a soft giggle through the door as the sanctuary halls became quiet again.
