Disclamer: I don't own So Weird or any of the characters. The song's not mine. it's Hanging by a Moment by Lifehouse.
Chapter 1
Desperate for changing, starving for truth
I'm closer to where I started while chasing after you
I glanced over to my desk. I often looked to picture there. The picture was Jacks, actually. It was of the four of us- Clu, Jack, Fi and myself- before Clu left for college and Fi for her aunt's. Clu was wearing a baggy orange shirt and blue jeans; Jack's outfit consisted of black jeans and an indigo shirt. Fi was in her lilac-colored flowered tank top with a sheer white coat over top and white jeans. I was wearing a white shirt under a medium blue one. My jeans were worn-out blue color. Both Clu and I had our arms around Fi. I was so happy then, yet so sad she was leaving. We were on a play piece at a playground in Maryland that both Fi and Clu had found.
For everyday since she'd left, I thought to myself, I've dreamt about her. Her smile, her laugh, just Fiona Phillips in general. Since before she left this tour, I'd had feelings for her. Now, Carey, you moron, you let the one you love slip though your hands, like sand.
I sighed and opened my laptop. Another memory entered my mind.
"Here Carey," Fi handed me a wrapped box.
"What is it?" I asked her.
"Open it up and see," she smiled into my eyes.
As I unwrapped the gift I couldn't help but wonder what she could've gotten me for Christmas. I finished unwrapping the gift and saw that her present was a laptop. "Fi…" I started, "How?"
"We all chipped in," Jack's voice rang through the house.
"Thanks you guys," I hugged Fi to me. "You guys are the best."
"Well," Fi explained, "I figured that since you always want to use my laptop you could use your own." I smiled into her eyes just as she did the same to me.
"Thank you," I whispered, just loud enough so that she could hear it.
I had tears forming in my eyes. That was the last Christmas I had with Fi. It's been more than a year now, and I still cry from that memory. I connected to the Internet, hoping that Fi was on. That was one of my only contacts with her. I smiled as am IM popped up on my screen. My wish had been granted.
Daddy's Girl: I'm coming back on tour with you guys, Carey!
Those words were music to my ears.
Air Guitarist: Are you serious!?
Daddy's Girl: Yes! I talked to my mom last week. She said Annie went to live with her parents again, and I could come back!
Air Guitarist: That's great!
Daddy's Girl: I know! Well, I better start packing. I'll be there tomorrow! Bye Carey!
Air Guitarist: Bye Fi
Daddy's Girl has signed off
I'm falling even more in love with you
Letting go of all I've held onto
I'm standing here until you make me move
I'm hanging by a moment here with you
I looked to the clock. It showed 11:21 when I was done online. Time for sleep, I thought. I shot down my laptop and closed the lid. I placed it carefully back in its place on my desk, and jumped under the covers to my bed. I fell asleep to thoughts of Fi and a smile on my face.
