DISCLAIMER: None of the characters in here belong to me. The song doesn't belong to me either.

AUTHOR'S NOTES: Wow. I'm really branching out. I'm writing romance. Well, it's not really romance, just a little romantic mention here and there. I guess it could be classified as slightly angsty, but I don't have any plans to write that in the near future. The song is Where Does My Heart Beat Now by Celine Dion. And also as soon as "Suggest Category" is back up I'm suggesting a category for our favorite Minnesota misfits.

RATED: G

ARCHIVES: I'm currently searching for a place to post this online, and if any of you have Ducks sites that you want to post this on, let me know and feel free.

WHERE DOES MY HEART BEAT NOW So much to believe in

We were lost in time

Everything I needed

I feel into your eyes

Sometimes I wonder if these songwriters have me in mind when they write these sappy, fluffy songs. Do they just mean to irritate me? Cause if they do, they're doing a mighty fine job.

Always thought of keeping

Your heart next to mine

Don't know how love could leave without a trace

Where do silent hearts go

Casey. Aw, heck. Why was I such an idiot? Why didn't I pop the question right there, right then? I was ready. I even had the ring, for crying out loud! Why did I chicken out?

Where does my heart beat now

Where is the sound

That only echoes through the night

Where does my heart beat now

I can't live without

Without feeling it inside

Where do all the lonely hearts go

Hm. A good question. What I want to know is where do all the broken hearts go.

Candle in the water

Drifting helplessly

Hiding from the thunder

Come and rescue me

My thoughts drift back to when I first met Casey…Gosh I was a jerk…

"Just one crack! One crack is all it takes!"

"I grew up on the ice, OK? I know when it's safe and when it's not."

"How do you know?"

"I just know."

"Look, Mr. Zen Master, you may be in tune with the ice universe, but when it comes to my kid, 'I just know' doesn't cut it!"

I may have been a jerk, but she was no Miss Congeniality either.

Driven by hunger

Of the endless dream

I'm searching for the hand that I can hold

I'm reaching for the arms that let me know

Where do silent hearts go

Whoever sings this song, I hear them. They must have been in a mood much like I am right now.

I know that somewhere out there

He waits for me

Someone who's searching like me

Then one touch overcomes the silence

Love still survives

Two hearts needing one another

Give me wings to fly

I wonder if she's thinking that now. I wonder if she feels that way. Well, he's waiting, Casey. I'm waiting.

I hear my heart beat now

I hear the sound

Hear it echo through the night

I feel my heart beat now

Now that I've found

The feeling lives inside

I've got someone to give my heart to

Feel it getting stronger and stronger and stronger

Hearts are made to last

Till the end of time

I drop my head into my hands. What a yutz I am. I blew it now. Casey's married again, and I blew my chance. Nothing I can do about it now.
