Dive headed straight to his room. He wanted to be alone for a while to deal with his new responsibilities. Magic met him at the door. "Meow."
"Hello Magic," Nosedive said as he walked over and turned on the radio.
"Meow."
"How was your day?" Dive asked the black cat as he plopped down on the couch.
"Meow," Magic replied as he jumped onto the couch next to him.
Dive sat back, closed his eyes and listened to the music as Magic nudged him. Dive scratched his ears and smiled as the cat happily purred into his ear.
"Meow," Magic mewed as he pawed at the mask on his face.
Nosedive removed the mask and laid it on the couch next to him. Magic climbed onto his lap and playfully swatted at the mask. Magic looked up at Dive, "meow."
"I know Magic."
Last night I had a crazy dream
A wish was granted just for me,
It could be for anything.
I didn't ask for money,
Or a mansion in Malibu.
I simply wished for one more day with you.
One more day
One more time
One more sunset, baby I'd be satisfied.
But then again
I know what it would do.
Leave me wishing still, for one more day with you.
First thing I'd do, is pray for time to crawl
Then I'd unplug the telephone.
And keep the TV off.
I'd hold you every second
Say a million I love you's
That's what I'd do, with one more day with you.
One more day
One more time
One more sunset, baby I'd be satisfied.
But then again
I know what it would do.
Leave me wishing still, for one more day with you.
One more day
One more time
One more sunset, baby I'd be satisfied.
But then again
I know what it would do.
Leave me wishing still, for one more day with you.
Leave me wishing still for one more day
Leave me wishing still for one more day
With you.
"Meow," Magic said again, swatting at the mask and tapping Dive's side with his tail.
"No, he's not coming home."
"Meow?"
"I know you miss him. I miss him too."
"Meow."
I can't imagine any greater fear
Than waking up without you here.
And though the sun would still shine on
My whole world would all be gone
But not for long.
If I had to run
If I had to crawl
If I had to swim a hundred rivers
Just to climb a thousand walls
Always know that I would find my way
To get to where you are
There's no place that far.
It wouldn't matter why we were apart
Lonely minds, two stubborn hearts
Nothing short of God above
Could turn me away from your love
I need you that much
If I had to run
If I had to crawl
If I had to swim a hundred rivers
Just to climb a thousand walls
Always know that I would find my way
To get to where you are
There's no place that far.
Oh, if I had to run
(If I had to run)
If I had to crawl
(If I had to crawl)
If I had to swim a hundred rivers
Just to climb a thousand walls
Always know that I would find my way
To get to where you are
There's no place that far.
Baby, there's no place that far.
Dive wiped a tear away, stood up and went to change the radio station. The songs on the other station were just WAY too depressing.
I don't wanna hold you back
No I don't want to slow you down
I don't wanna make you feel
Like your all tied up and bound.
Cause that's not what love's about
And there's no chance we can work it out
Oh, tell me, tell me
Tell me now.
Where would you be
If you weren't here with me
Where would you go
If you were single and free
Who would you love
Would it be me
Where would you be.
Have I become the enemy
Is it hard to be yourself in my company?
Where would you be
If you weren't here with me
Where would you go
If you were single and free
Who would you love
Would it be me
Where would you be.
Oh tell me, tell me now
Where will you be
Where will you go
Who will you love
Would it be me?
As the song played Dive retrieved the mask and placed it on the dresser. Next to the mask he lit a large candle. The song tugged at his emotions and he quickly turned the radio off before collapsing onto Wing's bed. He clung to Wings' pillow as he cried himself to sleep.
