Mamma Mia SOS Chapter Two
When everyone was revived, Sophie went right to Luna, "It was eighteen years ago that we met, and we appreciated everything you did for us. But now, coming here and playing with my emotions like this, I didn't think you all were like that. Why are you teasing us?" Sophie's tears were streaming down her face as she spoke.
Sam went to Sophie and asked for her to listen, "Sophie darling, listen to me for a minute. I didn't know any of these people back then and Luna came up to me and asked questions about things I never talked to anyone about before. She asked me if I had been dreaming about a song. Sophie, she even knew what song that has been bothering me. S.O.S. It was the song that showed Donna and I we needed to fight for what we once had. Now that Luna brought up her idea, I want to agree with her. She had the same dream, where Donna was reaching out for someone to help her."
"OK, Sam, why would mom reach out to someone we barely knew and not to me?" Sophie was still crying.
Now Luna answered Sophie, "Please listen to me for your answer. I am what you would call a medium. I see things others can't. I won't bore you with any of my stories, but my friends will agree with my abilities. I don't know where your mother is, or what her condition is, except that she is alive. Fernando said you have a baby, is this correct?"
"Yes."
"And has it been cranky lately?"
"How do you know these things? Yes, he has been restless and cranky. What are you trying to tell us?"
"She is reaching out to you, but your heart is filled with love for your new son. Donna can't break through your caring for Donny, so he is receiving that distress call and it upsets him. Now, Sam also told us how Donna came up missing. There is a lot of shoreline on the sea and it covers both Europe and Africa. It's hard telling how far the waves carried her and if she was in the boat, it could have been far. Have you heard about anyone being found with no name to contact family?"
There was no answer, but Fernando was on the phone and asking around for any found John or Jane Doe findings. None were near by, but the calls started going out to other ports, hospitals or any place that could respond to the call. Even the Military was called. Now they had to sit and wait for an answer.
The new friends finally got to meet Donny, the newest member of the family. Sky brought him out for everyone to see. The proud papa walked around holding him up for everyone to see and Donny said hello to them all in the only way he knew how. He blew bubbles. He also tooted, but that wasn't the hello.
Sophie walked to Luna and hugged her, still crying, but asking for her forgiveness for being so rude. Luna hugged her back and asked, "You were rude to me? When? I don't remember you ever being rude to any of us. You showed concern for your mother, as would all children. So, please tell me when you were rude?"
Sophie laughed through her tears as she hugged Luna harder. Harry moved to Sam and asked a stupid question, "Sam, how's the old car running I bought for Donna?"
"You bought Donna that piece of junk? Well, believe it or not, it's still running and we have never done anything to it."
"Then why do you call it junk?"
"Because every time we go into town, the person you bought it from asks if the pile of junk still runs, and we show him just how well it does run. I can't believe you got it for twenty five dollars."
Harry laughed and said, "I offered him fifty and he said just like you told me, 'For this piece of junk, I should give you fifty just to get it our of here. Give me twenty five and it's yours.' so, I gave him his money and took it to a shop and did work on it myself and you see the finished product."
"Just to let you know, that same guy offered Donna a thousand dollars for it and she scoffed at his offer 'For this piece of junk. No thanks. I am getting use to this junk cluttering up my yard.' and he is still trying to buy it back."
There was no news after the message was sent out so everyone went to bed and start fresh in the morning. It never came for Sam, Luna and Donny. They were all up for the dream they all shared, another song, but different from the first.
Andante Andante
Take it easy, with me please
Touch me gently
Like a summer evening breeze
Take your time, make it slow
Andante, Andante
Just let the feelings grow
Make your fingers
soft and light
Let your body
Be the velvet of the night
Touch my soul
You know how
Andante, Andante
Go slowly with me now
I'm your music
(I am your music
And I am your song)
I'm your song
(In am your music
And I am your song)
Play me time and time again
And make me strong
(Play me again
Cause you're making me strong)
Make me sing, make me sound
(You make me sing
And you make me...)
Andante, Andante
Tread lightly on my ground
Andante, Andante
Oh please don't let me down
There's a shimmer
In your eyes
Like the feeling
Of a thousand butterflies
Please don't talk
Go on, play
Andante, Andante
And watch me float away
I'm your music
(I am your music
And I am your song)
Play me time and time again
And make me strong
(Play me again
Cause you're making me strong)
Make me sing, make me sound
(You make me sing
And you make me...)
Andante, Andante
Tread lightly on my ground
Andante, Andante
Oh please don't let me down
Andante, Andante
Oh please don't let me down
Sam and Luna knew who the song was meant for. Sam and for Donny, he slept the night through after listening to it. Both Sam and Luna got up and went to the lobby, knowing they would meet there.
Luna walked to Sam and hugged him, "You heard it too? Did you know Donny did also? He's sleeping now and should be good for the night. Donna knew the perfect song for the moment, didn't she?"
"Yes she did, but it didn't always make you feel good after it. She could hurt just as easily with her music. But that song was the first from her and it wanted me to make me cry for what had really needed to say to her. Unfortunately, she learned it before I got to tell her, and it hit her the wrong way, like I was trying to keep it from her. I tried telling her in the lounge before Lazaros took her to the stage to sing that very song."
"I'm sorry."
"Don't be, because that song made me forget all about Mary, my fiance. I hated to disappoint Donna the way I did. I really did want to stay on the island and help her and Sophie with their dream. I wonder where the money came from to fix it up as much as she did?"
"That was her working in the lounge as a singer three nights a week. She even had Sophie help her with her songs when she sang outside. Sophie was not allowed in the lounge to sing."
"But she couldn't have that much, singing?"
"It was the tips she received from the crowd, thanking her for keeping Lazaros off the stage. How Donna thought he was amazing was baffling." Luna laughed.
"I don't know what song you heard him sing, but I heard Kisses of Fire from him and I wanted to laugh he was so funny hopping around on the stage like he did. Still Donna had this wonderful look in her eyes as she told me. 'I am never leaving here, this is amazing.' and she kept her vow."
They were up for about thirty minutes when they went back to bed, never telling anyone about this new dream. Luna now wondered about the money Harry left for Donna and if she ever used it. Judging by what Sam just said, she doubted it. If not, then where was it. She also didn't know how much he gave her, so when she got up, she would ask Harry just how much he did leave her.
Luna got up and went downstairs to see everyone, even Sam and Donny, sitting down talking. Ginny jumped up and got onto her, "About freakin time you got up. We are about to starve to death, and don't you dare make a quip about Ron to me or you'll be wearing...what the hell Hermione, why did you hit me in the head?"
"To shut you up. No one wants to hear what she'll be wearing from you."
"It was just my foot up her behind."
"Exactly my point, no one wants to hear about it." Hermione thought bat boogies to be truthful.
"Merlin Hermione, but you're getting pushy in your old age. Simmer down and enjoy your retirement." Ginny snickered, knowing Hermione's fret of growing old. She felt all students in Voldemort's years lost out on their education because of all the threats they endured. She wanted her youth back.
Hermione started running her fingers through her hair, "Is there a gray hair in there Harry?"
"Hermione, your hair is perfect, Ginny is just pulling a Weasley on you. She is getting real good at it too. Fred would be proud, Gin." Ginny wanted to hit him and kiss him, so she settled with a kiss and a small nibble on his lips.
After breakfast, Luna cornered Harry and pulled him off to the side, "Harry, how much did you leave Donna the last time we were here?"
"Why Luna? Does it really matter how much it was? It was my money and she needed it and I didn't need it." Harry didn't know where this was going.
"No, it's not like that Harry. The hotel just got finished and it was by Sophie and Sam. What did Donna do with it?"
"How much did they have to do to it? Maybe Donna got the biggest part done before she vanished. Someone had to help her, so maybe she paid this person."
"I guess I'll just have to ask Sam, as he was the one with her." But Sam told her his story after their wedding.
"When we started, I tried to help her with the financing, but she said she had it. I found out from Harry (Bright that is) that he gave her a good deal of money to help with the wedding for Sophie. Turned out to be for us, so I tried to pay him back, but he refused to take it. It was 10,000 dollars. But that couldn't scratch what we put into the hotel, so I don't know where the rest came from."
Luna couldn't ask what the total cost was, so Harry's money must have been in play. Did he really give her that much?
The rest of the day was just the story of how Harry, Hermione, Ginny and Luna met Donna and Sophie. It also told the story of Sophie's bringing her three fathers together for her marriage and how it turned out. Then Sam went into his story about the nine years him and Donna spent together.
"Those nine years were the best of my life. I enjoyed every minute I spent with Donna. Sophie and Sky went off to Europe and were gone for two years. Donna and I got quite a bit accomplished in those two years and Sophie and Sky were thrilled about how the hotel was taking shape. Donna picked out a name for the hotel. She called it Aphrodite's Love Nest. It was alright I suppose, so we kept it at that. We still had to work on the interior, so they helped us with it, until Sophie and Sky were called to New York for school. That was three more years. That was in 2013 Sophie and Sky finished their degrees in that time, but now it was their internship at a major Hotel in the city that would be for two years. Sophie only lasted a year when she got the news of her Mother's disappearance. We finished the hotel in that time. The rest you know. Except, I didn't know if I could finish what we started. This was Donna's dream and I knew I couldn't give up on it."
Sophie knew she would start crying unless she could find something to cheer her up, so she went to Tanya, Rosie and Hermione to help her with a song. She told them what it was and it thrilled Hermione and scared Tanya and Rosie, remembering what it was like all those years ago. But they agreed.
When I Kissed The Teacher
Everybody screamed
When I kissed the teacher
And they must have thought they dreamed
When I kissed the teacher
All my friends at school
They had never seen the teacher blush
She looked like a fool
Nearly petrified
Cos she was taken by surprise
When I kissed the teacher
Couldn't quite believe her eyes,
When I kissed the teacher
My whole class went wild
As I held my breath
The whole world stood still
But, then she just
-smiled
Smiled
I was in seventh Heaven
When I kissed the teacher
What a mad day
AH AH AH
Now I see everything
In a different light
What a mad day
And she taught me a lesson alright
I was in a trance
When I kissed the teacher
Suddenly I took the chance
When I kissed the teacher
Leaning over me , she was trying to explain
The laws of Geometry
I just couldn't help it
I just had to kiss the teacher
What a mad day
Now I see everything
In a different light
What a mad day
I was up in the air
And she taught me a lesson alright
What a crazy day
When I kissed the teacher
All my sense had flown away
When I kissed the teacher
My whole class went wild
As I held my breath
But she just smiled
I was in Seventh Heaven
When I kissed the teacher
I wanna hug, hug, hug him
When I kissed the teacher
I wanna hug, hug, hug him
When I kissed the teacher
I wanna hug, hug him
When I kissed the teacher
Hermione and Sophie hugged as the song came to end, and Rosie and Tanya were holding each other up in exhaustion, but laughing at what they accomplished and joined in the hug with the two youths.
That ended the evening, except for Harry's statement, "I will be leaving tomorrow morning to meet up with a friend and begin my search for Donna. I don't know how long this will take, but I promise, the minute I have news I will return, hopefully with Donna." the girls knew who Harry would be meeting up with. Kreacher and Harry were closer now then in 2000. It took every ounce of courage to tell him he couldn't go on this trip. Now he needed him and Kreacher was ready for it.
The next morning, when every one was up, they found Harry's message on the table.
Be back as soon as I can, Wish me luck.
Harry, the young one.
