Just For This Moment
"Carter?" "Hmm?" "Its 10 to 12" "Almost 2004" "Yup" We sat in the kitchen drinking coffee that was far past its expiration date. "So, what was your favorite
moment of 2003?" he asked. I thought, everything from coffee and pie to dancing came to mind, but I answered with my heart, not my mind. "All of them with you" He smiled.
* Just for this moment
As long as you're mine
I've lost all resistance
And crossed some border line
And if it turns out
It's over too fast
I'll make every moment last As long as your mine....*
"What about you?" She asked. The greatest moment of 2003, tough question. I thought for a while as I started into the blackness of my coffee cup. "When.when you forgave
me, when you let me in again, you let me.love you" A smile played across her lips as she drank deeply from her cup. "One of my favorites" she began, "was when you
came.when you came home, for me" I took her hand in mine, "Abby, I'll always come back for you, always"
*Maybe I'm brainless Maybe I'm wise
But somehow you've got me seeing Through different eyes
Somehow I've fallen Under your spell
And somehow I'm feeling It's Up that I fell*
I laughed before whispering, "that's what you said before you left" he pulled me closer to him, "but Abs, I came back, I realized what a jerk I was being, and that what I really
needed, was right back here, hurting like hell, and waiting for me to come home." "And, I realized, that you really were worth waiting for, that I really did love you, and keeping it
to myself, wasn't going to do anything but make me feel worse."
* Every Moment As long as you're mine
I'll wake up my body And make up for lost time*
"So you shouted it from the roof tops?" "No, just the admit desk" "I think that was the best day of my life, knowing how you felt and weren't afraid anymore." He told me
before kissing me. "I remember what we did after that, in the empty exam room, need I continue?" "No" He replied, "I remember."
* Say there's no future
For us as a pair....*
"Worst moment?" He asked. "When you left, when you weren't going to tell me you were going." "I'm sorry about that" "I know, what's your worst" He finished the last of
his coffee and replied, "when you said people didn't change, I thought they did Abby, no, I knew they did. I knew that you had changed, you were different, you.you were
Abby." "Carter, you know I didn't mean that" "I know now" "Hey look, its 11:59, one minute to the new year" We watched the clock change before sharing a passionate kiss.
* And though I may know
I don't care.....*
"Abby, I want to make the years best moment right now" "Now?" She asked. I nodded before digging into my pocket. "Abby, we have spent three good years of memories,
three years of hoping that something that would happen, and Abby, I want to make it happen, so, Abigail Lockhart, will you marry me?" She stood in front of me, hand over
her mouth, nodding. "Yea?" I asked. She looked to me with tears in her eyes, "Yea" We had done it, this was definitely the best moment of 2004, even if had only started one
minute ago, yea, this was it.
* Just for this moment As long as you're mine
Come be how you want to And see how bright we shine
Borrow the moonlight Until it is through
And know I'll be here holding you As long as you're mine*
