Chapter 16: Looking In The Eyes Of Love

Shelby looked over and looked at her friend. She knew that she would finally be happy, and that all the mixed up emotions she had previously had been diminished. More importantly, Daisy would finally be able to share in her joy for having found someone to love.

Daisy and David stopped dancing and started walking arm in arm to get something to drink. The other Cliffhangers noticed, and decided to go and talk to them about the event that had just taken place.

"Oh, Dais! I am so happy for you!" squealed Juliette as she hugged her.

"Yo, Dave-man. That was tight. Awesome," said Auggie as he walked up to the two of them.

"I told you, Daisy," Shelby whispered as she as well pulled her into an embrace. She was glad that everything had worked out.

Suddenly there were swarmed by their friends, all offering their congratulations to the new couple. It was not long before they felt too smothered and decided to go outside, where not a single cloud stood in the sky and the stars twinkled magically.

David led Daisy just outside the building where the morp was being held. The two of them looked up to the stars, thanking them that they had each gotten what they wished for. David was incredibly happy that his plan had worked and that he was now holding the one woman he could ever love. Though he had been nervous beyond words over the outcome of the occurrence, he was glad that it had come out in his favor.

A voice boomed from inside, coming from the microphone. "All right, ladies and gentlemen. This is the last song, so make it memorable."

David pulled Daisy into his arms as the song started. She looked up suddenly as she heard the first few notes played. As the lyrics began, so did Daisy, much to David's surprise, very quietly so that it was only audible to him.

* I wonder should I tell you
About all the crazy things that I have done
I've been hiding all my life
When I should have stayed
I tried to run
I was searching for an answer
In a world so full of strangers
And what I found was never really love
Now that I have found you
I'm looking in the eyes of love
In the eyes of love

Baby, you've been good to me
Always so much more than you could know, yeah
I never thought that I would find
Someone who's so sweet and kind like you
Please believe me when I say
This time I won't run away
I swear by all the heaven's stars above
Now that I've found you
I'm looking in the eyes of love

Looking in the eyes of love
I can see forever
I can see, you and me
Walking in this world together
All my heart's found a home
I've been dreaming of
Now that I've found you
I'm looking in the eyes of love
Looking in the eyes of love
I can see forever
I can see forever
I can see, you and me
Walking in this world together
All my heart's found a home
I've been dreaming of
Now that I've found you
I've found you
I'm looking in the eyes of love, yeah
Oh... *

They looked intently into each other's eyes, as a single tear trickled down Daisy's cheek. David took his thumb to brush it away, as he leaned down to kiss her softly. Once they parted, they both stood smiling into each other's eyes.

"I didn't know you could sing," David said.

She laughed. "Neither did I. I love that song too, and I am truly, looking in the eyes of love."



THE END!!!!!!!
