There is something that I see
In the way you look at me
There's a smile there
That shows truth, in your eyes
In an unexpected way
On this unexpected day
Could it be this is where I belong?
It is you I have loved all along.
"What?!! You want to get married?"Morwen asked.
Telemain nodded slowly as he gazed lovingly into her eyes.
"You are the love of my life, Morwen. Why spend anymore time apart, when we can be together?"
Morwen pulled away from him, turning away,"I...I don't know.
I need to think about it." She left him standing there alone.
There's no more mystery
It is finally clear to me
You're the home my heart
Longed for so long
It is you I have loved all along
"I wonder where he is,"Morwen said aloud to no one in particular. "He won't answer his mirror."
"Perhaps he's worried?"Jasper said looking up from her lap.
"Worried?"
"Well, he might be afraid you'll say no. You still haven't answered him."
Morwen frowned. "I've been busy. I mean with Scorn having her
third litter and then Fiddlesticks..."
"We all miss Fiddles, but he's in a happy place. Probably eating all the fish he wants,"Jasper replied. Morwen noticed his voice was weak and his once shining cream and silver coat had been reduced to a dull grey color. She was once agin reminded that cats don't live long and a great sorrow pierced her heart.
"Jasper, why is it that you're the only one who likes Telemain?"
"I'm not. We all do. It's just that...the others don't want to see you hurt. But I know he'd never do anything to hurt you."
There were times that ran to mind
'Fraid to show the other side
Alone in the night without you
But now I know just who you are
And I know you hold my heart
Finally this is where I belong
It is you I have loved all along
Morwen slowly opened the door to Telemain's tower.
"Telemain? Where are you?"
She closed the door behind her as she headed to his study. As she
opened the door, she heard the furious wrirng scribbles and saw Telemain sitting at his huge oak desk, quill in hand.
He doesn't even notice me, she thought chuckling.
There's no more mystery
It is finally clear to me
You're the home my heart
longed for so long
It is you I have loved all along
"Morwen! I didn't even hear you come in!"Telemain said, upon hearing her laugh,"What can I do for you?"
"I've come for some answers! First of all, who do you think
you are proposing to me?"
"I...um, well," he studdered, quite shocked at Morwen's sudden
outburst.
"Second, why haven't you returned my calls?"
"I've been busy,"he replied.
"Doing what?"
"Actually I'm trying to create a liquifing spell to permently dispose of the wizards along with their magic absorbers instead of just momentaily delaying the structure to reconfigure after a few days. It's rather hard, but I've considered subsituting the slowstone fo-"
"Telemain!! I didn't come over here to be lectured on the process of spell making!"
Over and over I'm filled with emotion
Your love is enriching through my veins
And I am filled with the sweetest devotion
As I look into your perfect face
Telemain looked hurt, as he lowered his gaze to the floor, avoiding Morwen's glare.
"Oh Telemain, I didn't mean to snap at you. I just slipped."
"No, no. It's fine. I guess I deserved it, wasting your time with the boring aspects of my life."
"Telemain..."Morwen said, reaching for him.
"No,"he said pulling away,"I understand. Is that all? I really should be returning to my research."
"Just listen...I...Te-"She threw herself at him, shading her face from view. Telemain heard her sobs and felt her warm tears soak
his shirt.
"What's wrong?" he asked, "Are you okay?"
"Of course I'll marry you! I love you."
"You will? But...But I thought that you s-"
"Telemain, stop thinking so much,"she whispered, before kissing him.
There's no more mystery
It is finally clear to me
You're the home my heart
Longed for so long
It is you I have loved all along
