Boris's Lullaby
Phoenix laid Boris on his bed, she scrunched down to his chest, nuzzling her honey colored furry forehead against the bulge in the middle, feeling him breathe, one arm wrapped around his waist, her right hand on his back, rubbing it in circles. Both of his Weasels, one of them was laying on a pillow behind his master's head, while the other was laying on the bed covers behind Phoenix's head.
She begam to sing a song, hoping it would help him fall asleep.
Come stop your crying
It will be alright
Just take my hand
Hold it tight
I will protect you
From all around you
I will be here
Don't you cry
My arms will hold you
Keep you safe and warm
This bond between us
Can't be broken
I will be here
Don't you cry
Cause you'll be in my heart
From this day on
Now and forever more
You'll be in my heart
No matter what they say
You'll be here in my heart
Always
Boris was fighting as hard as he could, not to fall asleep. This remind him of the time on Earth, Moonfox had comforted him, after having a nightmare of his entire species going extincted.
Why can't they understand the way we feel?
They just don't trust what they can't explain
I know we're different, but deep inside us
We're not that different at all
You'll be in my heart
From this day on
Now and forever more
Don't listen to them
'Cause what do they know?
We need each other, to have, to hold
They'll see in time, I know
When destiny calls you, you must be strong
I may not be with you
But you've got to hold on
They'll see in time, I know
We'll show them together
Cause you'll be in my heart
Believe me, you'll be in my heart
I'll be there from this day on
Now and forever more
You'll be in my heart (You'll be here in my heart)
No matter what they say (I'll be with you)
You'll be here in my heart (I'll be there)
Always
I'll be there for you always
Always and always
Just look over your shoulder
Just look over your shoulder
Just look over your shoulder
I'll be there
Always
Boris finally slip into the realm of dreams.
The next morning, he woke up, not feeling her presence.
"She's gone again, isn't she?"
Don't worry Master, you'll see her again someday.
He could hear the voices of his pets, in his head, due to their telepathic link between them.
"I hope so."
