Back To December
May Angels lead you in
BTD 24
About an hour after the bus drove off, there was a knock on the door. I sighed.
" Come in!"
It was Phillip, my lead guitarist.
" Hey Philly, what's up?"
He shrugged, sitting beside me on the couch.
" Just wanted to say that Sharon called, first concert is in Toronto, then we
fly to London. "
I nodded, impressed.
" Sounds great, man..."
" Tell me about him." Phill surprised me. My jaw dropped.
What happened to shy Philly?
" Who?"
Phill laughed.
" Your Fiancé," he gestured toward my new ring perched on my finger.
I smiled," His name is Paul. He's from my hometown, La Push. He's really tan and
tall with the classic Indian features....and these dark eyes you can get lost
in." I kind of drifted off.
Phill smiled. " What does he do?"
I frowned. How do you explain that your fiancé is a territorial werewolf who
fights vampires to protect our town?
" He's in Security. Just local stuff."
" Like a Night Guard?" Philly asked, confused. I laughed, nodding.
" Yeah, like a night guard" I answered. He smiled, standing up and stretching.
" Well," he yawned," I'm happy for you. You deserve it, girl. "
I grabbed his arm," Hey, act shocked when I tell the others. Ali will kill me if
she finds out you knew first...you know how she is."
He nodded, kissing my forehead comfortingly.
He gave a small wave and walked out to the front of the bus.
Sighing, I dug through my bag and pulled out my lyrics notebook, trying to find
something suitable.
As I flipped through my book, one song popped out to me and I smiled. It was a
tribute song I wrote a few months ago about Harry after he died.
It was called Hear You Me
There's no one in town I know
You gave us some place to go.
I never said thank you for that.
I thought I might get one more chance.
What would you think of me now,
so lucky, so strong, so proud?
I never said thank you for that,
now I'll never have a chance.
May angels lead you in.
Hear you me my friends.
On sleepless roads the sleepless go.
May angels lead you in.
So what would you think of me now,
so lucky, so strong, so proud?
I never said thank you for that,
now I'll never have a chance.
May angels lead you in.
Hear you me my friends.
On sleepless roads the sleepless go.
May angels lead you in.
May angels lead you in.
May angels lead you in.
And if you were with me tonight,
I'd sing to you just one more time.
A song for a heart so big,
god wouldn't let it live.
May angels lead you in.
Hear you me my friends.
On sleepless roads the sleepless go.
May angels lead you in.
May angels lead you in.
Hear you me my friends.
On sleepless roads the sleepless go.
May angels lead you in.
May angels lead you in.
I softly sang the song to myself before sighing and getting up off the couch,
walking into the main room where the others where.
I opened the sliding door and slipped in the front room to be greeted by lots of
hugs and excited voices.
Phillip and his brother Chris sat on barstools at the counter, Alicia was on the
futon, and Chris was sitting in the recliner.
Aaron was at the fridge. He gave a mega watt smile as I passed.
The driver even turned to wave at me with a smile.
I smirked, raising an eyebrow.
" Miss me that much?"
" Hell Yes! It's been like...five months girl!" Aaron laughed I nodded,
scratching my face.
There was a gasp. Alicia ran towards me, and grabbed my left hand.
" What the Fuck? You getting married?" she exclaimed. There was a silent shock
that echoed throughout the area.
" Yeah" I nodded, biting my lip to hold back the smile," I am. And I'm really
happy."
Alicia cooed, hugging me again, and then pulling me onto the Futon with her.
I sat cross-legged and everyone surrounded me.
" Tell us more, tell us about him." Chris said
I nodded.
" His name is Paul Redson," I started," He's from my hometown, and he's a friend
of my brother in law. He's tall, dark, and handsome, oh God and his muscles!" I
laughed. I saw some of the guys cringe.
Phillip had a thoughtful look.
" Wait, that tall Indian, the one beside you this morning, that was Paul?That
was him?" he asked. I laughed, nodding.
Alicia slapped my arm jokingly," He was hot. You go girl. You tap dat?"
I raised an eyebrow, taking a chip out of her Doritos.
She smirked, " You did!"
I laughed, nodding, though I couldn't help but notice that Aaron had a strange
look on his face the whole time.
