"You Found Me"
Is this a dream?
If it is
Please don't wake me from this high
I've become comfortably numb
Until you opened up my eyes
To what it's like
When everything's right
I can't believe
Mia ran through the park with her bodyguard running after her, she had received terrible news. At the age of 23 she had just lost her mother. Her little brother Rocky was in her arms as she rushed past the other citizens of New York. Frank as she had taken to calling him had left the city leaving her with her little brother because he couldn't 'deal' with the loss of Mia's and Rocky's mother. Mia wished it was all just a bad dream, a bad dream that would just go away. Mia slowed and looked around her surroundings noticing she was in one of her secluded spots that no one but Lars her and Rocky knew about.
Mia sat down on the furthest corner of her sanctuary and began to sing the song her mother had played at her wedding with Frank. It was the only song she felt that fit the moment right now. You found me by Kelly Clarkson.
You found me
When no one else was lookin'
How did you know just where I would be?
Yeah, you broke through
All of my confusion
The ups and the downs
And you still didn't leave
I guess that you saw what nobody could see
You found me
You found me
"Mia, Where's Mommy?" Rocky asked his voice quivering. Mia looked down at her baby brother as rain poured from the heavens and tears from her eyes. She clutched her brother tighter.
"Mommy's gone Rocks, Mommy got really sick and she died, she's not coming back baby boy. she's not coming back" Mia chocked out through her tears and Rocky started crying.
"Momma" He wailed burring his little head into her shoulder crying for all he was worth. Mia didn't know how long they sat there but as she looked up she noticed it was starting to get dark not really caring Mia wrapped Rocky up in her jacket while she hummed softly.
"I knew I'd find you here Mia" a soft voice called from in front of her. Mia's head jerked up in surprise before looking at the face that came with the voice...
"Micheal, You found me" She whispered... he knew her so well, she had shown him her little sanctuary once before but she had thought he had forgotten.
"Yes, you know that no one is looking for you right now but me right? No one knows that you were missing except Lars and he's here with you." Micheal murmured softly as he came to sit next to her pulling her into his embrace taking care not to disturb Rocky.
Mia looked at Micheal and thought back to all the times he had been there for her and realized he knew her so well. And she never knew how well until now. He too care of her and Rocky so very often even when she was sure they didn't need it.
"Yes Micheal, I know. Thank you for looking for me when no one else was." Mia said her face buried in his shoulder.
So, here we are
That's pretty far
When you think of where we've been
No going back
I'm fading out
All that has faded me within
You're by my side
Now everything's fine
I can't believe
"So here we are, pretty far from home isn't it Mia" Micheal said breaking the silence his voice hushed as Baby Rocky slept on unknowing in the true loss of his mother as well as his father.
"Yeah, considering where we've been. We can't go back to the loft Micheal it's to empty without her it seems so dark. Micheal promise me one thing please... Promise me, that you won't leave me you won't leave me when I need you most, Promise me that please." Mia choked out as Micheal's grip grew slightly tighter.
"I promise you I won't leave you unless you wish me to go with all your heart Mia, My Mia. I promise." He whispered fiercely and she knew as he said that that everything would be just fine.
You found me
When no one else was lookin'
How did you know just where I would be?
Yeah, you broke through
All of my confusion
The ups and the downs
And you still didn't leave
I guess that you saw what nobody could see
You found me
You found me
"Let's go home" Mia said softly her breathe leaving a cloud of white air in front of her as she stood holding her still sleeping brother.
"Yes Mia let's go home." Micheal said softly as he pulled her against his side with his arm around her waist.
As they reached The Moscovitz's apartment Mia sighed and relaxed into Micheal's grip even further.
"Thank you Micheal, for finding me even though I didn't know I was lost, thank you for looking for me when no one else did. And thank you Micheal for always being here for me." Mia whispered as they neared the apartment door. "Thank you"
And I was hiding
'Til you came along
And showed me where I belong
You found me
You found me
When no one else was lookin'
How did you know?
How did you know?
You found me
When no one else was lookin'
How did you know just where I would be?
Yeah, you broke through
All of my confusion
The ups and the downs
And you still didn't leave
I guess that you saw what nobody could see
You found me
(You found me)
(When no one else was lookin')
You found me
(How did you know just where I would be?)
You broke through
All of my confusion
The ups and the downs
And you still didn't leave
I guess that you saw what nobody could see
The good and the bad
And the things in between
You found me
You found me
Mia hummed the last few lines of You found me as they entered the apartment, Mia Rocky and Micheal all holding on to each other. And they knew.. They found each other and they would stay with each other for as long as they could.
