Angels Fall Sometimes

A/N-- First try at a Tamora Pierce fic...but, I have been hooked into Daine/Numair. I knew that would happen WAY before the end of the FIRST book...lol. This song is just one that I thought would fit Numair for his feelings with Daine. Hope you enjoy.

DISClAIMER! Not mine...wish Numair was though...lol

Angels Fall Sometimes...

My chances weren't good she was way out of my reach
How could she ever fall for some ol' boy like me
But here she lies asleep tonight in these arms of mine
And that goes to show angels fall sometimes

Numair lay next to his sleeping lover, his girlfriend, if you are one to be stuck on titles and such...He loved watching her sleep, he loved watching her when she was at work, he loved watching her when she was trying to figure out some hard and tough puzzle, he loved...well, He loved her.

Veralidaine (Daine to all her closest friends and to the People, She was only called Veralidaine by enemies and possible pompus suitors.) lay enclosed in the arms of her love, Dreaming of her mother and father once more. Weiryn and Sarra had often visited her in these dreams, but this time, Daine was just wandering their realms enjoying a soft spring day in the Realm of the Gods. The Gods allowed her this for she was the daughter of a Greater God and a, now, Demi-Goddess and she had spent very little time with her mother on earth, and had sent close to none with Weiryn. Numair was quite happy that they had, also, granted him this ability too, since he was often with Daine anyways. He wasn't with her at this time though.

She's been here long enough to see that I'm no saint by now
Every mornin' I wake surprised to find her still around
The love that she give to me could be no truer sign
Every now and then angels fall sometimes

Numair puller her closer to him, listening to her breathing. He did this often when he wanted to think about things or to re-focus himself. He had no clue why, in Mithros' name, she stayed with him. They had fought often, often punctuating their arguments by black flames flying about, and various animals coming in and out of the tower they lived in. But, however, their arguments always ended the same. One or the other, or sometimes at the same time, thye would just throw themselves into each others arms, hugging the other close, and then kissing with such a burn and passion, it left nothing to be desired. Her love was always there, even when she got mad enough to rage out of the tower during the worst of fights.

She brings pieces of heaven every day into my life
She's been my inspiration with her by my side
I'm not afraid to dream high

Numair had always been an over-achiever, but with Daine...he strove for more than just achievement, he strove for perfection, for approval from her. He was always moving on to bigger, better, more dangerous things.

The love that she gives to me could be no truer sign
Every now and then angels fall sometimes

And now, as they lay entrapped in each others arms, after the first night they had 'spent' together...Numair was certain of one more thing. Angels may not exist in their realms...but if they did, then truly Daine was one of the ones that had fallen.
