Songs & Fire [Brett and Casey]

Morning Light

Morning Light

Song: Morning Light by Justin Timberlake

Look, every time there's a new sunrise

I open up my eyes

And I say to myself, "In the whole wide world of guys

I must be the luckiest alive"

Because I'm in love with you

Laying here, in the morning light

And all I want to do is hold you tight, just one more night

The sunlight had slowly started to filter into Casey's bedroom, casting a bright, warm glow upon Casey in his bed. The night before both he and Brett had stayed up well into the morning talking about nothing in particular as they snuggled close to each other in a bed so soft you would think it's a cloud.

Not long after Brett had finally drifted off to sleep Casey found himself just staring at her and thinking about how beautiful she was not only on the outside but on the inside as well. "What would I do without her?" He silently thought. "How would I live?"

Finally, succumbing to sleep Casey closed his eyes and started to drift off. But before he was fully immersed into sleep Casey was thoughtfully gathering up the courage to spill his feelings to the sleeping angel next to him.

"I love you, Sylvie Brett." Whispered Casey, knowing that Brett had not heard him.

Casey then fell asleep praying that one day he would be able to tell Brett to her face that he was completely in love with her.

Look, I can't even get out of bed

With the thought you putting in my head

So I say to myself, "I don't even want to try"

Here, every part of me is paralyzed

Morning came far too quickly for Casey. He wanted to stay like this forever next to the woman he loves. He slowly started to open his eyes and come around after a night full of dreams about himself and the love of his life.

"Brett?" Called Casey after he opened his eyes and found the left side of his bed cold and empty.

"Where is she?" He thought. "It's eight a.m. and Saturday. We have the day off."

Casey then leaped from the bed and started checking virtually everywhere in his small one-bedroom apartment.

"Her purse is gone. So is her phone." He said out loud.

Hey, where did you go? xCasey

He text, not having to wait too long before his phone lit up.

Hey! Good morning! Sorry, I got up early to go meet up with some girlfriends for coffee. xBrett

Oh. Okay. I wish you would have woken me up. I could have made you breakfast. xCasey

It's okay. You looked so peaceful, I couldn't bare to wake you up. But, how about I do us one better and bring coffee and bagels from our favorite spot. xBrett

That would be perfect. I'll hop in the shower before you get back. xCasey

Okay! Oh, and Casey...I love you too! xBrett

'Cause I'm in love with you

Laying here in the morning light

And all I want to do, is hold you tight just one more night

Yes I'm in love with you

Laying here in the morning light

And all I want to do is hold you tight, just one more night
