AN: I own nothing and no one portrayed here. This is part two of my series of drabbles written while I was away from FF, otherwise known as 'I'm halfway through the current chapter of another story and got stuck so I'm distracting myself'. These were done for Mystique.

Heaven is falling asleep to the sound of a gentle snore beside you. How she manages to wake up with the sun even though it's been years since she could see. The sound of the tap of her cane as you stroll a city street hand in hand. She will never see your face, but she has seen your true form in her mind's eye and loves you exactly as you are. So confident, so competent; she walks in darkness but does not let that keep her from doing what she needs to. Keeper of your heart, an entire lifetime you would have shared with her, facing each challenge together, each a rock for the other to lean on. But dark words clouded the bright future; anger and oceans now separate what should have stayed joined, and while you move through each day, at night your heart aches; and you dream of the day when you can touch heaven again.
