I,
Tabetha do by swear I do not own these characters or the show in which they
were created for. I just enjoy playing
around with them; they are like my little paper dolls. I keep very good care of them and return
them nicely to the shelf when I am done.
Did you know that I don't like chocolate ice cream? Or importantly did you care that I did
not? Having long author notes seems to
be fashionable and like to be into the trends.
Oh man where did I put my Britany Spears cd!? Can't be trendy without her huh?
Oh darn I can't find it! :::sobs:::: I suppose Michael W. Smith will do,
even though he's not trendy or "in".
Our song selection today is 'I Will Be Here For You'. It's on a cd called 1983-1993 The First
Decade, but I don't know which cd it was first placed on; because 1983-1993 of
course a greatest hits cd.
- Hushed
Conversations.
When you feel the sunlight
Fade into the cold night
Don't know where to turn
I don't know where to turn
And all the dreams you're dreaming
Seem to lose their meaning
Let me in your world
Baby, let me in your world
All you need is someone you can hold
Don't be sad, you're not alone
Carey
poured the last of the orange juice into the tall green plastic cup. Everyone else on the bus was still sleep as
he had been moments before. They would
be leaving at dawns light to God only knew where playing the same set from the
night before and the night before that.
Carey enjoyed the music but found predictability to be boring at
times. A soft whisper like sound
catches his ear and he turns towards the table. The first time looking in that direction since he half
sleeplingly dragged himself into eating area.
It was Molly sitting with her back to his eyes turned looking out the
window. With the black sky the only she
saw was her own tired and sad reflection.
Carey was sure that she was unaware of his presence, even though opening
and closing the refrigerator door made sounds, Molly was lost in her own
thoughts. Dreaming while awake it
seemed. The two of them hadn't
discussed it but he knew she felt the same bordness with the work schedule and
tour lately. Carey wanted to do
something, there was nothing though. He
slides into the booth in front of her deciding he could do nothing while
keeping her company.
I will be here for you
Somewhere in the night
Somewhere in the night
I'll shine a light for you
Somewhere in the night
I'll be standing by
I will be here for you
Molly
turns to him and smiles pathetically. A
part of her wanted to be alone but another and stronger part of her liked the
company. Tonight was a time of
reflection on the past, present, and even the future. She didn't have a future at least not the one she imagined as a
small child. Whenever she made a plan
and everything worked out the world played a cruel joke on her and ripped
away. Because of that Molly never made
plans too much in advance. Life had
become something had never wanted, it had it's moments of joy. Jack, Fiona, singing, the Bells, Annie, but
there was something else she wanted.
Just Molly didn't know what.
Having Carey there being silent letting her know he cared meant a great
deal to her.
In this world of strangers
Of cold and friendly faces
Someone you can trust
Oh there's someone you can trust
I will be your shelter
I'll give you my shoulder
Just reach out for my love
Reach out for my love
Call my name and my heart will hear
I will be there, there's nothing to fear
Carey
had some much to ask and tell her but knew now wasn't the time. What he wanted the must was to reassure her
that he'd always be there to listen, be a loyal friend. He wasn't a fool he knew pain and anguish
when it was right in front of him. The
far look in Molly's eyes told him her thoughts weren't just on the tour. Thoughts she refused to share not wanting to
sound whiny so she trapped them like a lightning bugs in a jar. Only they weren't entertaining to watch and
never let them free. Carey knew they
were friends, just didn't think the level reached the point of giving therapy
style advice. Just watching her cry
invisible tears was killing him. Molly
stands up, reaches over to lays a hand of his shoulder to say thanks, and
leaves the room. Carey just watches not
saying a word.
I will be here for you
Somewhere in the night
Somewhere in the night
I'll shine a light for you
Somewhere in the night
I'll be standing by
I will be here for you
Molly retreats into her
bedroom not wanting to keep Carey up any longer. She didn't want to be a wake any more either. But knew sleep wasn't waiting for her behind
her closed eyelids. She never slept any
more; it was taking a toll on her. No
one else except perhaps Carey noticed this.
He had a way of noticing a lot of things about her, she was grateful for
his friendship. Molly had never had a
more loyal friend before, he seemed to be plugged right into her heart to feel
her emotions. Knowing what to say or
what not to do. Suddenly the world
didn't seem quite as cold and uncaring as it did moments before. She leaves the room and heads back into the
kitchen. Where Carey still sits unmoved
in position or facial expression. Sits
where had just been so they continue their silent conversation until they both
felt strong enough to face the world bright eyed again.
