It was strange, I felt myself fall and then I wasn't falling anymore. I look up to see the dark starry night sky, it was beautiful. Then I felt the arms around me, I looked to see Shawn holding me. It took me a minute to realize he had saved me again. I was still so hurt and in pain that I scrambled away from him, furious.

"Why would you save me. I told you to let me go. Why wouldn't you just let me go?" I cried in pain, Shawn looked at me his eyes filled with sorrow, it hurt me even more to see him like this.

"I couldn't just let you go Issy, I never will I wouldn't be able to live with myself if I did. Can't you see that your everything to me. Your the sunshine on a rainy day, your the light in the dark. Your the only thing I have to live for. If you die, a part of me will die with you." I could hear his voice cracking, it broke me more to hear how much it would kill him to lose me.

"Isabelle I love you to much to let you go."  Shawn said coming closer to me before he held me tighter then he had ever held me before, I cried into him as he held me in his arms. My heart hurt so much it felt as if it was going to explode. 

"I'm sorry." I whispered before I fell asleep in Shawn's arms on my bedroom balcony.

When I awoke Shawn was sleeping soundly beside me, I sat up and walked down to the music room. I shut the door going over to the piano I began to play the sad tune I knew.

You and I, we're like fireworks and symphonies exploding in the sky

With you, I'm alive

Like all the missing pieces of my heart, they finally collide

So stop time right here in the moonlight

'Cause I don't ever wanna close my eyes

Without you, I feel broke

Like I'm half of a whole

Without you, I've got no hand to hold

Without you, I feel torn

Like a sail in a storm

Without you, I'm just a sad song

I'm just a sad song

With you, I fall

It's like I'm leaving all my past and silhouettes up on the wall

With you, I'm a beautiful mess

It's like we're standing hand and hand with all our fears up on the edge

So stop time right here in the moonlight

'Cause I don't ever wanna close my eyes

Without you, I feel broke

Like I'm half of a whole

Without you, I've got no hand to hold

Without you, I feel torn

Like a sail in a storm

Without you, I'm just a sad song

You're the perfect melody

The only harmony I wanna hear
