Okay. I love this song and had to write something about it, and this is the result. Extremely fluffy, almost sappy. If you're a sucker for any kind of fluff, read. Definitely NOT the best thing I've ever written, but I wrote it nonetheless. So there.
Disclaimer: I don't own anything JP owns. I do not own "Celtic Woman." However, I do own their CD. You should, too.

Max was thinking about a song. One that was stuck in her head. A "Celtic Woman" concert had been in New York, and Angel and Nudge had insisted on going, so they all went. Angel... um... let them in.
There was one song in particular that Max loved. She thought it was beautiful, and, now that she thought about it, it was about Fang. So there she was, standing on a cliff looking into the sunset, with the song running through her mind.
"When I am down and all my soul so weary,"
Like I have been so much recently
"When troubles come"
Like Erasers and finding food and Max II...
"And my heart burdens me"
Or my mind. The Voice is so wearying...
"Then I am still, and wait here in the silence"
You're always silent.
"Until you come and sit awhile with me."
You're always there for me, Fang.
"You raise me up so I can stand on mountains"
You always catch me when I fall.
"You raise me up to walk on stormy seas"
You help me through when it gets to be too much
"I am strong when I am on your shoulders"
Only with your help am I strong
"You raise me up to more than I can be."
I could never do this without you.
While thinking over the lyrics, Max had been humming. Now, to her own amazement, she started singing. She had never really tried singing before. Her voice was like a flute- clear in tone and hauntingly beautiful. Max didn't think so, of course. But she sang anyway.
"You raise me up so I can stand on mountains,
You raise me up to walk on stormy seas.
I am strong when I am on your shoulders...
You raise me up to more than I can be."

"You raise me up... to more than I can be."
She heard a slight sound behind her and whirled around, immediately on the defensive. Max gaped when she saw the silent figure of Fang. He blinked calmly.
"That was beautiful."
She blushed slightly in response. He walked up next to her. "Who were you singing about?"
Max was at a loss for words. "Well, uh... I, um..." Everything about her- her body language, the way she was looking at him- everything except her words said you. Fang barely smiled.
"I know," he said softly. Bending down to her level, he gently kissed her on the cheek.
And they walked hand in hand back to camp.

AWWWWWWWWWW! Just kidding. I know this idea has been used before, but I love love love love love that song sooooo much. Review and tell me how corny it was. I'm serious.
