Song Fic Chapter.
"Greatest Story Ever Told" by Oliver James.
(From the What a Girl Wants Soundtrack)
"Dance with me Jordan." Woody said.
He took her hand and led her to the old jukebox. With a quarter, Woody selected a song and guided Jordan to the center of the dance floor.
Thank you for this moment
I've gotta say how beautiful you are
Of all the hopes and dreams I could have prayed for
Here you are
Woody pulled Jordan into him. His left hands found their way around her waist, and hers draped around his neck. She moved closer to him, breathing in his familiar scent. They moved slowly to the music.
If I could have one dance forever
I would take you by the hand
Tonight it's you and I together
I'm so glad I'm your man
Woody tightened his grip on the woman he loved. They only woman he could ever love. Annie was just a stepping stone, a reason for Woody to come to Boston and find her. His whole life seemed to be just to find her. Everything led up to that moment, it was the most important moment of his life. The moment he saw her, he knew. He knew she had his heart right then, she was the one.
And if I lived a thousand years
You know I never could explain
The way I lost my heart to you
that day
It was unexplainable, how they found each other. By chance, by destiny. And in the moment their eyes connected, they both knew. An unexplainable knowledge. They were each other's match. As though their souls recognized an old friend within each other. For Woody, he admitted it almost immeadietly. But for Jordan, she needed proof of truth and security before ever opening up again after her heartbreaks. And now she had it. She was in love. He was in love. It was a simple and beautiful thing, preceded by so many complications. But they loved each other, and now they were everything to each other. Nothing else mattered. As they danced, Jordan and Woody made eye contact, sharing the same look. Unconditional love.
but if destiny decided I should look the other way
then the world would never know
the greatest story ever told
and did I tell you that I love you
tonight
Their eyes danced in each other's gaze. It was undeniable now-they were in love.
I don't hear the music
When I'm looking in your eyes
But I feel the rhythm of your body
Close to mine
Smiling, Jordan leaned her head against Woody's strong shoulder. It seemed to fit as though his shoulder and her head were puzzle pieces which belonged together. Everything fit. Jordan and Woody held each other close and the dance went on.
It's the way we touch, it soothes me
It's the way we'll always be
your kiss your pretty smile
you know i'd die for
oh baby
you're all i need
Everyone continued to laugh at the drunken rambles of their friends over at the booth. And Garrett glanced over to the dance floor, and saw Jordan and Woody.
"Now that is true love." Garrett whispered.
And if I lived a thousand years
You know I never could explain
The way I lost my heart to you
that day
but if destiny decided I should look the other way
then the world would never know
the greatest story ever told
and did I tell you that I love you
just how much i really need you
did I tell you that I love you
tonight
tonight
Forgetting their surroundings, Jordan looked up at Woody. He smiled. He leaned down and gently kissed her. Jordan met his kiss with happy passion. A few more, deeper kisses, and the couple broke apart.
"I love you Jordan" Woody whispered in her ear, his breath tickling her senses and sending welcomed chills down her spine.
"I love you too Woody." Jordan whispered back, giving Woody a warming, yet cool sensation throughout his body.
And if I lived a thousand years
You know I never could explain
The way I lost my heart to you
that day
but if destiny decided I should look the other way
then the world would never know
the greatest story ever told
and did I tell you that I love you
just how much I really need you
did I tell you that I love you tonight
Pulling her back into an embrace, Woody kept dancing as the song faded out.
"Perfect song Woody." Jordan said.
Garrett and Nigel looked down again. They looked at each other and nodded. I guess their question had been answered.
"Finally. It's about time." Garrett repeated quietly.
