I hear soft voices. Sounds that are familiar and peaceful. No just one voice. Like an angel.

I feel my hand being held. Soft and delicate. I start to open my eyes slowly and look straight into the all too familiar eyes of Ruel. Once he realises what's happening his face lights up with that same ear to ear grin. I close my eyes again, being too weak and Ruel whispers in my ear

"Rest my princess, you're beautiful and your life is precious, I love you."

He then starts to sing a song that I've never heard before

Searching for another way, another way, another way
To keep her safe another day, another day, another day
It's easier to run away, run away, run away
Than to know what to say, say, say
Than to know what to say

His words, truthful but painful. A single tear falls down my cheek. Ruel whips it away

"Shhh you're okay, I'm here now and I'm not going to let anything happen to you."
