Arabella's Pov:

So.....something tragic had just happened, Michael lost a real close friend this morning, I won't be naming any names but yea.....he's just been feeling down all day, and he even cried this morning about it. He was in the studio, I had no idea what he was doing, but I didn't hear any music playing so I just assumed that he was sitting there, thinking about the things that just happened.

I decided to make him some tea, made sure it was cool enough for him to drink first, and then I brought it to him.

Arabella: Hey.....

I politely knocked on the door and then I walked in. I set the tea down next to him.

Arabella: Hey baby........

Michael: Sup.

Arabella: Sup? I made you some tea.....

Michael: Thanks.

He was being really dry, really not blunt enough with me I felt like. 

I mean, I felt like he was being blunt but in a weird way, ya know?

I sighed at first, and then it was just pure silence for a couple of moments.

Arabella: Look, I know you're still pretty upset that this happened, especially the way it happened but.....I'm always here for you.

He looked at me innocently.

Michael: I know that, and I'll do better.

I just looked him the same way.

Arabella: Is there anything I can do for you?

Michael fiddled with his pencil.

Michael: No, I think I should be okay. 

Arabella: Well, what are you doing?

Michael: I'm writing a song for this whole......situation.

Arabella: Aww, that's so sweet. Read me some of the lyrics, please?

Michael: Like a comet, blazing cross the evening sky, gone too soon. 

He continued to go on and on, me listening in peace, trying not to cry. It was so good, so meaningful, and he did such a great job, and my heart goes out to this person, and him, really, it does....

Michael: Shiny and sparkly, and splendidly bright, here one day, gone one night, like the loss of sunlight on a cloudy afternoon, gone too soon.

Michael cried as he read it, which made me cry, so I decided to get up, and hug and kiss him. Oh, how this day felt to me was so sad, scary, it was enough anxiety to me and a reminder too.

Arabella: I'm so sorry baby......come on, let's go relax for a bit on the balcony.
