Once more, another shout out to derpology for reviewing my song fics thus far! I'm glad you like them, and I hope you like this one, too! See you at the bottom of the page. The song is based on "Hole in my Heart" from Phineas and Ferb. The lyrics have been altered slightly to fit the plot.
Hole in my Heart
Takes place after the Allied Powers jump out of an airplane in the middle of a snow storm, once they're back at whoever's house. Also takes place after Nora's 2p is put in Germany's basement, but before she is set free by Speirell.
Nora lay in bed. Thankfully, someone had been kind enough to leave a nightlight nearby (were nightlights around in the forties? Who knew.) She was feeling a little chilly. Apparently, the house wasn't as well insulated as it could have been.
She turned over in bed to try and get her mind off of the cold. Immediately, her thoughts went to Em and the others, but mostly Em. Em said she forgave her, but Nora still couldn't get that look of rage out of her head. Nora missed her friends, even if they had seen each other only a few hours ago.
Since it was clear she wasn't going to get to sleep anytime soon, Nora got up and pulled open the window curtains. It was too dark to see anything but the snow and occasionally the moon through the clouds. A melancholy tune seemed to surround the dark landscape and the country.
"Somewhere out across that skyline," she sang quietly, "maybe down some lonely street, there's a girl with anger issues without whom I'm incomplete."
She pressed her nose to the window, fogging up the glass. "Who will I make jokes with now? Now that we're so far apart? I want to get her back somehow. There's an Em-shaped hole…"
Nora sighed and pulled away from the window. "An Em-sized hole… An Em-sized hole in my heart."
Meanwhile, at one of the Allied Powers houses, Em was pacing back and forth in her room by the window. Em knew that Nora had basically said things were okay now, but Em was sure that wasn't it. She stopped pacing and shook her head. That look on Nora's face when Em heard she was going to fight for the Axis. Fear… sadness… heartbreak.
Em pressed against the ice-cold window. In the back of her head, some sad guitar music was playing. "Who will I poke fun with now, and tease for being so smart? I don't know what I'll do now… There's a Nora-shaped hole in my heart."
"There's an Em-shaped hole," Nora whispered.
"A Nora-sized hole," Em sang.
"A big honking hole in my heart…" They finished together.
Em closed the window curtains and turned around. Adri was standing in the doorway. "I know what you're doing," she said. "You're singing! That means you want Nora back."
"Shut up, Mom! Get out of my room!" Em threw a pillow at her, which fell flat several feet in front of its target. Adri closed the door behind her. Em groaned in frustration and flopped onto her bed. Nothing else to do, now that she had sung a song out of boredom and loneliness. Time to go to bed.
A little short, but I hope it suffices. I think this song helps show how Em and Nora are feeling about each other and the events that have happened to them over the past few days/ weeks. So, what did you think? Leave a review, tell me what you thought, and I'll try to post a new one tomorrow. Until then!
