If I'm Not in Love With You
This is a songfic to Faith Hill's "If I'm Not in Love".
"You're in love with me?" Daine asked.
Numair looked away.
"Love's fair wondrous. Where's the harm?"
"I was `canoodling', as you so charmingly put it, when you were four. You're so young, Daine. I knew that if I spoke, you might think yourself in love with me; you might ma--" He stopped.
"Marry?" she squeaked. "Marry you?"
He wouldn't look at her. "One day you'd turn to me and see an old man. You'd want a young one." He moved out of the shelter.
If I'm not in love with you
What is this I'm going through, tonight
And if my heart is lying then
What should I believe in
Why do I go crazy
Every time I think about you baby
Why else do I want you like I do
If I'm not in love with you
And if I don't need your touch
Why do I miss you so much, tonight
If it's just infatuation then
Why is my heart achin'
To hold you forever
Give a part of me I thought I'd never
Give again to someone I could lose
If I'm not in love with you
Daine walked over to Numair. "Can't we just go on as we have? This is a fair weight to solve when things are so--mad."
He smiled, just barely. "That is certainly true."
"I know I love you. Maybe I always have--"
"Which is what I was afraid of."
"Once we're home--once the war's over--we can work it out. We'll talk then."
He stood and cupped her face in his hands and kissed her gently. "Indeed we will."
Oh why in every fantasy
Do I feel your arms embracing me
Like lovers lost in sweet desire
And why in dreams do I surrender
Like a little baby
How do you explain this feeling
Someone tell me
If I'm not in love with you
What is this I'm going through, tonight
And if my heart is lying then
What should I believe in
Why do I go crazy
Every time I think about you baby
Why else do I want you like I do
If I'm not in love with you
A/N: Normally, I loathe country music. No offense to anyone who does like that music. But I love Faith Hill's songs, and I thought this one was perfect for Daine and Numair. This is my first songfic, so be nice when you review!
Disclaimer: I don't own ANYTHING. The characters belong to Tamora Pierce, and the song is Faith Hill's.
