Author's Note: Okay, since you enjoyed my other stories so much, I decided to go the cheesy route and make song fics. I'm a music freak and I love to do this every once in a while.

For the people who review nicely thank you. For the others who decide to cuss out the writer, I appreciate your opinion, but keep your responses to yourselves. I write how I feel the story is going. If you don't like it, don't read. Thank you.

Enjoy

Watching every motion in my foolish lover's game
On this endless ocean finally lovers know no shame
Turning and returning to some secret place inside
Watching in slow motion as you turn around and say

Take my breath away
Take my breath away

Derek could stand and watch Sam every day if she'd let him. She said it was creepy the way he would when she woke up or when she was in the shower. She called him a stalker to his face.

He guessed he was.

At the moment she was taking care of their eight-month-old daughter. Laura was growing up but he couldn't forget the night they created their little bundle.

They had been so wrapped up in each other and the moment they shared. She responded to him with great ease but it was also because not only was she interested in him but he was interested in her. That was the difference. Never before had he been that interested in someone. She brought out all the good qualities in him that he had never seen before.

Watching I keep waiting still anticipating love
Never hesitating to become the fated ones
Turning and returning to some secret place to hide
Watching in slow motion as you turn to me and say

Take my breath away

He never thought he'd fall in love.

Sam was the best thing that had ever happened to him. After his sister passed, he never figured he'd fall in love with anyone.

But here she had come, decked out in an architect's outfit with no hearing. That was what made him extra special to him.

Because she was deaf she was able to sense things he couldn't about himself. She knew when he was happy, when he was sad, when he was angry, when he was agitated, and when everything was out of place for him. It threw him off guard at first but then he learned how to live with it.

Through the hourglass I saw you, in time you slipped away
When the mirror crashed I called you, and turned to hear you say
If only for today I am unafraid

Take my breath away
Take my breath away

She never changed in the year and half they had been together. She was the constant in his life. he could be having a bad day and her bright happiness would bring him back to life.

they had hit a rough patch but they had gotten over it because neither one of them was afraid. They were more afraid of losing each other and the precious cargo they had.

Watching every motion in this foolish lover's game
Haunted by the notion somewhere there's a love in flames
Turning and returning to some secret place inside
Watching in slow motion as you turn to me and say

Take my breath away
My love, take my breath away

Even if he could, he wouldn't change a thing that had happened in his life.

It all had pointed him in this direction. If his family hadn't died, he wouldn't have moved away. If his sister hadn't returned and been killed, he wouldn't have come back. And if Sam hadn't been waiting for him when Kate had attacked him, he would have killed her.

The very thought of all that took his breath away because the love of his life was that. Breathless.
