A Broken Song Story

The Hearts Song

    Was he awake? Now he was. He felt his eyes slowly open. He looked down and smiled. There. Snuggled up in his arms was the one and only love of his life. She shivered in her sleep and cooed. He loved it. He loved every little detail about her. Ever since that first day they literally bumped into one another. So what if she was mostly mute? So what if the majority of her sentances came out in stutters. Every little thing that might make her weak made his heart sing. She was the best thing that had ever happened to him. She gently cooed as her eyes fluttered open. He smiled at as she nervously wrapped the blanket around her. He gently moved a stray hair from her face and she smiled. She gently reached over Damien and grabbed her towel from last night and wrapped it around her under the sheets. He loved how cute and insecure she could be. As she wrapped it around her she got out of bed and went into the bathroom. He sighed. That by far must have been the best night of his life. He quickly got dressed and headed downstairs. He got out three choices of cereal and set them out on the table. He didn't know what kind of cereal she liked or if she even liked cereal. He suddenly felt super nervous. He genuenly had feelings for Skylar. He didn't want anything bad to happen to her. He also didn't want to give off the wrong impression. He looked up from setting the table and saw Skylar coming down in her school uniform. He felt his cheeks flush. The sunlight from the windows glowing on her skin and against her beautiful white hair made his heart melt in his chest.

"I.. um.. I-I made breakfast." Skylar giggled at Damien's nervousness. And sat down at the table and brushed off her skirt. She glances at him and blushes as she looks back to her bowl. "Y-Your c-cute when your n-nervous..." He looks at her in suprise but smiles. She glances at him nervously and blushes. "W-what?" 

He smiles and kisses her cheek. She yips and her cheeks turn a bright red. He laughed. "I guess that makes two of us." She looks at her bowl again embarassed as she poured herself some cereal. He giggled and she smiled. His nervousness melted away. Something about her kind smile made him sure that there was nothing to really worry about.

    Later that day Damien gets an idea. He knocks on the guest bedroom door where Skylar was staying. She opened the door softly and as he saw her he felt all mushy again. 'This is a bad habit...' he thinks to hiself. "Um, hey. You wanna take a walk?"

As they walked through the woods Damien could feel his heart patting against his chest. He smiled as he saw Skylar looking around, dazed by the beauty of the forest. As they get to the top of a small hill Skylar looked amazed at the sight. There was a beautiful little pond with an amazing waterfall pouring into it. She sighed as she started to make her way down the small hill. He looked shocked at first but smiled with glee as he followed her down. She dropped to her knees as she looked into the beautiful small pond. She saw small fish swimming in the water and she giggled happily. Damien giggled as he tugged at the tips of her hair. She yips and turns around and Damien laughs. Skylar looks slyly at the water from the lake and splashes him with the pond water. His eyes widen in suprise and laughs as he splashes her back. She yips and splashes him again as she laughs for the first time he's heard. As they run around the pond splashing each other Damien sees something catch his eye. He sees the back of a schools jocks jacket. He felt sudden caution rise in him when he suddenly got splashed in the face again. He snapped out of it and looked back to the angle giggling infront of him, her clothes, face and her hair wet from the splashes. Her smile made the world to him. But that also made him concerned at his glance at the jocks jacket. This worried him and he had to find out what was happening.

    That night he opened his computer and got onto the schools site, looking at the newest news page. The front page shocked him. It was about how the rich dark kid attacked the schools favorite jock out of jealousy and kidnaped the new girl. His jaw practically dropped. Everyone at school must have seen this by now! If the cops had taken this seriously they would have knocked on his door by now. He sighed and shook his head. He didn't kidnap Skylar! Infact he saved her from that stupid jock! He shook his head and rested it on the table. He had no clue what was going on. But he knew that if he told Skylar this she might leave out of fear for her own saftey. He wouldn't mind letting her leave out of her own concern for her saftey, but he was scared of her leaving for good. He sighed and sat there in the darkness. The light of the computer the only light in the room. He shut his computer as he made his way back to his bedroom. As he tossed over the covers and slipped into bed he thought about Skylar. Her beautiful smile. Her cute shy remarks. Her innocent stutters. He couldn't keep this from her. He looked at the scars on his hands and bit his lip. He had no i dea what to do. He let out a deep breath as he flopped back down on the bed. He stared up at the ceiling and made up his mind. 'Tomorrow night I will tell her. She deserves to know.' And with that thought in his mind he went to sleep peacefully.
