Author's Note: Sorry I haven't updated, but I'm having a serious writer's block for this story. But here is a very very short chapter for you. This whole chapter is told as Ruthie's POV. And thank you to the four who reviewed.

Chapter 15
Reflections
Ruthie
This is the air I breathe
This is the air I breathe
Your holy presence
Living in me
This is my daily bread
This is my daily bread
Your very word
Spoken to me
And I, I'm desperate for You
And I, I'm lost without You
I climbed the steps that led to the plane that was taking me back to Scotland. I sighed as I sat in my seat. I didn't want to go, but I knew I had to. I thought back to when I was saying goodbye to Martin.
FLASHBACK
"Hey, Ruth," Martin said finding me on the porch. "Why do you look so sad?"
I had been crying before, I had forgotten how much I loved and missed my family. I had tried not to think about it. I wiped my eyes wouldn't see that I had been crying. He could anyway.
"Ruthie, why are you crying?" Martin asked pulling me into his embrace.
"I'm just going to miss you and Glen Oak and my family," I replied.
Martin smiled and kissed me shortly but deeply on my lips. He pulled back and grinned at me.
"I'll always be with you, Ruthie," Martin said.
END FLASHBACK
The plane had been I the sky for about an hour. I took out my English Lit. 2 book out to do the reading assigned over the break.
As I opened it a piece of paper fell out. I picked it up, and smiled at the familiar handwriting.
THE NOTE
Dear Ruthie,
Here is a poem for you to read that tells you my feelings:
O, MY luve's like a red, red rose
That's newly sprung in June:
O, My luve's like the melodie
That's sweetly played in tune.
So fair art thou my, bonnie lass,
So deep in love am I:
And I will love thee still, my dear,
Till a' the seas gang dry.
Till a' the seas gang dry, my dear,
And the rocks melt with the sun:
And I will luve thee still, my dear,
While the sands o' life shall run.
And fare thee weel, my only luve,
And fare thee weel awhile!
And I will come again, my luve,
Tho' it were ten thousand mile.
-Robert Burns
I love you Ruthie. And I'm very proud of you. I'll miss you,. But I'll come to Scotland to visit, if you want, before you graduate.
Love,
Martin
END NOTE
I smiled I love Robert Burns. He is one of my favourite poets. That was so sweet of Martin.
Instead of studying I read the note a couple more times. Then I felt very drowsy so I leaned back in my chair, and prayed like I did every time I went to sleep.
Dear GodThank you for everyone in my family, and please bless them all. Mum, Dad, Matt, Sarah, Mary Carlos, Lucy, Kevin, Simon, Sandy, Sam, David, and all of my nieces and nephews. Most of all God thank you for Martin, and please bless him too. Amen
Lord of all creation
Of water, earth and sky
The heavens are Your tabernacle
Glory to the Lord on high
God of wonders beyond our galaxy
You are holy, holy
The universe declares You majesty
You are holy, holy
Lord of heaven and earth
Early in the morning
I will celebrate the light
When I stumble in the darkness
I will lift Your name by night
God of wonders beyond our galaxy
You are holy, holy
The universe declares You majesty
You are holy, holy
Lord of heaven and earth
Hallelujah to the Lord of heaven and earth
Hallelujah to the Lord of heaven and earth
God of wonders beyond our galaxy
You are holy, holy
The universe declares You majesty
You are holy, holy
Lord of heaven and earth
God of wonders beyond our galaxy
You are holy, holy
Precious Lord, reveal Your heart to me
Father, holy, holy
The universe declares Your Majesty
You are holy, holy, holy, holy

Author's Note: There is the chapter. And it is a little fluffy i know.Neither the songs nor the poem belong to me. Again I don't know if the songs fit, but I like them. I really need your guy's help. I need ideas for my story I'm having serious writers' block. So please leave a comment with your ideas. IfI don't get enough reviews, or I can't think of anything to add, I'll either end it this chapter, or add one more. So please HELP ME by reviewing!
