It's time for ANOTHER BIRTHDAY FIC! :D Happy Birthday Daxie, I hope you had a really wicked day! Or are still having, if I get this up before your birthday finishes! n_n Anyway, enjoy your story! :)
This fic is a songfic, based on Jack Johnson's song 'Angel' ~ It actually wasn't supposed to be a song fic, but I was listening to the song as I was writing this, and then had a musical breakout like in (High School Musical But At Home Alone Whilst Writing Fanfiction). Usual disclaimer shizz. I don't own this, all rights go to Impossible Pictures, Jack Johnson and stuff.
A sleepy arm snaked its way around Sarah's waist and pulled her closer into his warm body; her head fit perfectly into alignment between his chin and collarbones – he remembered smiling at that.
"I've got an angel
She doesn't wear any wings,"
Her hair smelt like the coconut shampoo he bought her whilst he was away in Cornwall for one of those private psychological retreats that were company protocol or something insane like that. Her bare back was smooth against his chest, warm and comforting.
"She wears a heart that can melt my own
She wears a smile that can make me wanna sing,"
Sarah smiled a slight smile and her fingers automatically interlocked with his in her sleep, subconsciously, it was a kind of home remedy, he supposed. Military captain Becker who dealt with time-traveling prehistoric creatures was appeased by a simple subconscious movement of fingers – The thought was funny, but the reality of it was a beautiful thing, and no Pristichampsus, futuristic beetle or psychotic bitch could change it.
"She gives me presents
With her presence alone
She gives me everything I could wish for
She gives me kisses on the lips just for coming home,"
The morning light cast a gentle glow over Sarah's face, which left soft shadows around her nose and lips, and framing her face where her dark hair fell in tresses. Becker could not believe his luck that he'd found such a woman, and today he'd ask her to be his forever.
"She could make angels
I've seen it with my own eyes
You gotta be careful when you've got good love
Cause the angels will just keep on multiplying,"
He must've made too loud a smile, for her eyelids fluttered and opened, revealing eyes like molten amber, constantly showing emotion, a liquid stream of love that was visible only to him. Her smile was as bright as anything, and that was just for him, just for the morning, just for nothing – And he loved her for it.
"But you're so busy changing the world
Just one smile can change all of mine
We share the same soul,"
He fumbled from inside his bedside drawer for the small red velvet box he knew should be there, it had to be there, and of course, it was there. He said nothing as he showed her the simple gold design – the delicate form of Anubis cast into gold with a ruby delicately placed in the centre.
"We share the same soul,"
He hoped to God she'd say yes.
"We share the same soul."
And she did.
