Okay, Chapter 6. Song in this chapter, but I don't believe it's a real song. So...no disclaimer. I think this fic only has a few more Chapters left. 1 or 2. Okay...3 at the most. Enjoy...
And Goodnight
"I'd love to" Charlie said sitting up quickly and reaching for his guitar which was sitting in a corner of the tent. Claire could tell he was grinning from ear to ear without even looking at him. He'd look for any excuse to play a song, especially for Claire. She was still lying with her back facing him as she heard him tune the chords. After about 5 minutes she heard him start to strum a melody. A few seconds later he was off in his own world singing for Claire.
I
think it's her eyes and her hair,
Or maybe the way she pretends
that she cares.
And the way that she looks today,
makes me
tremble but in a good way.
You probably think that I'm high,
But
believe me, I wouldn't even try.
Now you smiling so wide, and
your batting your eyes
And I'm sorry that I made you cry.
Then
maybe that smile'd be for me,
But I guess we just weren't
meant to be,
And my voice is shaking now, along with me hands,
Could I
be any weaker of a man?
Cause your all that I see, and your all
that I need.
But I'm out of my league once again.
It's strange now, that I'm sitting here.
Without any worries or fears.
Will you actually give me a chance,
As we try out this brand new romance?
And now as I sit here and stare,
As you thoughtlessly thumb through your hair.
I feel that I'm falling in love,
With an angel that fell from above.
Now your laughing and batting your eyes,
And
there's no need to think of goodbyes.
Yeah, your all that I see
and your all that I need,
And I'm out of my league once again.
And now that my heaven is here,
There's nothing that I need to fear.
With one last strum he finished the song. Claire turned to face him.
"That was beautiful. How did you just make that up on the spot?"
"Magic, love. Maybe I'll let you read the best part ever"
"Saving the best for last, huh?"
"Of course. You know I wouldn't just leave you empty handed"
Claire let out a huge yawn before smiling one more time at Charlie.
"Goodnight, Charlieā¦I'll see you tomorrow"
"Don't worry. I'll make sure you hear from me" He said with a small laugh, but Claire didn't even hear him. She had fallen into a peaceful sleep without fears or cares or worries. She knew Charlie was looking out for her. He smiled one more time as he bent down and kiss her cheek. "Sweet dreams, love. Tomorrow is going to be a nig day."
