AN: Just wanted to say thank you to Spaci Ireth, myppe, PandaFire McMango, and MovieBuffStarlet for all the really great reviews for "Sing me a Song". You all get virtual cookies!
I'm thinking about submitting this for the rentinspired challenge on livejournal, but I'm not sure if I should…
Disclaimer: I don't own emotion or RENT (this is probably the most used RENT fanfic disclaimer, but it fits and I like it) :)

They say there's a first time for everything. I never used to believe in true love or Christmas miracles, but then something magical happened. I was touched by an angel and my life changed forever. I'll never forget that magical Christmas Eve. So much happened in those first four hours, making the experience all that more magical.
The first time I saw her, I knew it. She helped us all in every single way possible. She got me out of the alley and cleaned up; she bought food for the Loft; she went to Maureen's protest, paid for our meal at the Life Café; she even helped Roger get out of the house. If her heart was an ocean, it'd be the biggest and the deepest. I felt like I was like a sailor, who could just get lost in the depths of the ocean that was her kind heart. I felt like just being with her, could keep me safe forever from my fears and regrets. She stole my heart, and I'll never get it back. It forever belongs to her.
Her confidence in herself astonished me. She showed me how she could be herself and be comfortable with it, despite what others may think. She was unafraid to bare her soul and show what she cared about. Her strength excited me. Her determination and thirst for life despite her disease was inspiring and still is today. She showed me she was unafraid of death, and I shouldn't be afraid either. To her, death was just life's next great adventure just waiting for us.
Every moment was an adventure. Her laugh would send me on a rollercoaster of thrills and her smile warmed even inch of my body. Being with her was like a never-ending high.
She, most importantly, proved to me that true love does exist. She allowed me to enjoy the euphoria of this love just by walking beside me. She did all of this to me in four magical hours. That's how I knew. If you could learn and feel so much in such a short amount of time, one can only imagine how you would feel when you spend the rest of your life with them.
Angel may not have been my first lover, but she was the only one that really mattered. She was my first and only true love. She's made me a believer. It'll take another, equally magical miracle to show me otherwise.

I wasn't sure what genre to put this under. Let me know if it should be changed.
