TITLE: SHE WILL BE LOVED Part 2: ‘angel flames’ SUMMARY: She didn’t speak, she didn’t smile she just fell into his arms like an angel from the sky…what was it that made him stay? AUTHOR: Kay49x THANKS TO: PooPooDragon99 for your pleasant feed back X this ones for you X I couldn’t wait to see him. I couldn’t sleep. I felt so in the moment that it had to be done that minute. So I got up…grabbed my keys, grabbed my shoes, grabbed my coat and left for his house. So…There I was…in my car…speeding through the snow in nothing but my nightie and coat…what was I thinking. I slowed down, pulled over and turned of the engine. ‘I’m going to do this’ I repeated it over and over out loud in my silent car. I had to admit I was scared. I’d never done this before…I’d never told anyone I loved them. I couldn’t even tell Mulder. But I had to change…I didn’t want to loose John too but everyday I felt him slipping farther away from me and it was all my fault…no…it was time. I put my car in drive again and too soon I found myself at his lawn. I wanted to move I wanted to get out but I couldn’t I was frozen and then I saw him. He was stood at his mantle. My heart began to choke me as I watched the way the delicate flames held his gaze and danced upon his serious but lost expression. Even from my car I saw the piercing sapphire of his eyes. My gaze broke as he moved suddenly he left my sight…I already missed him. I snaked my way up his path and stared at the mahogany door before me. I could feel the heat coming from within. It was a comfort…good old John…good old safe secure John…how I wanted that warmth wrapped around me. I shivered out of my thoughts and went to knock but it was as if the door was scared of my touch, as it swung swiftly open revealing those piercing blue sapphires. I wasn’t expecting that. I felt myself fall into warm secure arms as a dark cloud covered my head and blacked out my eyes………… My house felt desolate, empty. This was supposed to be a house of love, family and happy times but all I saw was the scattered memories of my past. A past I wanted to forget about but a past that I will cherish forever. I didn’t have time to pack things up…I’ll do it over the weekend. I just wanted to get the hell out of there. I went to put my fire out but the deep auburn colour of the flames captured me and I couldn’t help but think about her. The pain, the pity and the ache in my heart came back. I wondered whether or not to just go over there, pin her down and scream out to her how I felt…but what good would it do. She’d laugh at me, she’d walk away, she’d rip my heart out again and wait for me to bleed to death before opening up to me. I opened the note again…three words…three simple fucking words to end it all. I was angry at her for making me believe that this was what all our hard work, our struggles and MY care had come to…three small but heart piercing words… ‘I loved you’ I placed the note back on the mantle and stared at the flames. Hot, beautiful, smart flames, flames that burn you, flames that die…she was indeed just a flame to me now. I shook my thoughts away and grabbed my overnight bag. I stopped at the door and waited. I don’t know what for…my head was telling me to leave whilst me heart told me to stay, be warm, be safe…be here for her. But my heart was a fool and the cold ambience from the door was very welcome…maybe it would freeze my heart…maybe. My head won anyway and I opened the door in haste but nothing prepared me for the angelic sight that caught my soul and spread its flames around me like wings…it was Dana. She was cold and shivering and she looked so thankful to see me. All of a sudden my head bailed out and I was left in confusion until the angel unconsciously fell into my arms and eased around me…I was meant to stay.
