Impossible Love
Characters:
And the Backstreet Boys...
- Actually Mr. Richardson, you shouldn't be able to do this because of your work. But she had been to worse homes and we hope that you at least can take care of here for the two years that's left.
"So you won't haft to be responsible for what happens to her after that" he thought.
- But now it like this that she really like you and well... Mr. Richardson, she can come to her new home tomorrow.
- Thank you Mr. Thomson, he smiled.
- Thank you.
"Yeah, so you won't haft to have her here anymore" he thought and shook hands with him.
Kevin went back out.
- Well? Brian said with the rest of the guys together with his mother and his two brothers who'd been waiting for like an hour outside.
- She's coming home tomorrow, he smiled.
- Really? A.J. smiled, I actually never thought it would work out but...
- Thanks...
- No, but you know what I mean.
- Yeah.
- I'm so happy for you Boo, his mother gave him a hug, a grandchild then.
- Yup, she's really nice mom, her name is Angelica.
- We know, smiled Tim, you've been telling us like a billion times.
- I have? Well then you know it when she comes, Kevin smiled.
The car stopped outside his house. A pretty brunette stepped out and pulled a couple of bags, this time she was going to stay. Kevin opened the door and gave her a hug.
- I've missed you, he smiled.
- And I've missed you, she smiled, back for good then?
- You're not going anyway, he smiled and picked up her bags, you know where everything is and the same goes for where your room is.
- Yeah, she waved at the driver who left as soon as she'd done that, they sure are glad to get rid of me.
- I really don't understand why, he smiled and let her close the door, I never looked at you as a pain in the as.
- Well that's you, I really hate Mr. Thomson, he is so annoying. And Mrs. King...can you say bitch?
- Your language, Kevin said even though he understood what she meant.
- Sorry.
- You've been in here for one single minute and you're already breaking house rules.
- I said I was sorry, she smiled.
- Well sorry isn't good enough, he smiled and kissed her on her forehead, Welcome home Anya.
- Thanks Kev, you really didn't change anything here...
- You didn't want me to so...
- Thanks, she smiled.
- You're welcome.
- How long are you going to stay, she asked him while they were watching "Friends".
- For a month, he smiled, but I probably won't be home all the time I'm afraid.
- It's okay...
- And I don't want to hear about a party in this house.
- That I can guarantee, she smiled, if you promise not to bring some blond bimbo over everyday.
- Okay, I'll settle with brunettes and redheads.
- And I'll do the same, she smiled.
- You so will not, he smiled.
- I'll try not to, but every second day...
- Hey, you know that if you have a boy over it's totally okay for me to have a girl over.
- I know, I just can't believe that I'm going to stay here...
- You can stay for all your life, he said softly.
- I know, and thanks again...
- Would you stop thanking me Anya? It's starting to be annoying.
- Sorry.
- How about we'd watch TV instead of talking?
- Great idea.
She threw her bag at the floor.
- I HATE SCHOOL! She screamed.
- And I love you too, Kevin said and picked up the bag, what's up?
- You know that teacher Mrs. South?
- Yeah, the English-teacher that gives you all those tests.
- Yeah, she's given me a homework to write on three pages until Wednesday!
- Homework, not a homework.
- Whatever, it's like two days until Wednesday!
- What are you going to write about?
- The Middle Ages, she muttered.
- I thought you liked that subject, he smiled and handed her tha bag.
- Well, not if I haft to do a three pages homework about it on two days.
- Call A.J. he always loved the Middle Ages anyway, maybe he can help you.
- Okay, but I'm still mad and I hate that whore!
- Anya, I know you do but you know you're not aloud to talk like that.
- Well I'm sorry Kev but that's the truth!
- Do your homework instead of cursing okay?
- Okay, she smiled and kissed him at the cheek, you really are acting like a father.
- Well, I am your father now.
- Adoptive father.
- Still your father.
- Right.
- Go on, you probably got a billion things to do.
- Yeah, terrible things called homework... I'll call A.J.
- Good.
She went in to her room. She really loved living with Kevin, he really was like a father, or no, not a father... not a brother either, a good friend. She smiled, at least she wasn't forced to stay at that home anymore... A.J....
She dialed the number and waited for a while before somebody answered.
- Hello.
- Hi Bri how you doing? She smiled.
- Great, and how about you Anya? How's school?
- I'm fine but school should be forbidden, at least Mrs. South and her homework should.
- So why are you calling then?
- Homework... the Middle Ages, computer written three pages till Wednesday, she muttered.
- I'm guessing your looking for Bone then...
- Yeah, is he there?
- Yup, one second... BONE! You got phone, Anya.
She smiled, they always did their best to help her and Kevin.
- What's up, said a familiar voice.
- Hi Bone, she smiled, it's okay just homework problem. How about you?
- I'm okay, I just ran in to Amanda...
- I'm sorry...
- So am I, he sad a bit sad, never mind that now, what did you want?
- Look you don't haft to...
- No really, can I help you then I will okay.
- Okay, my problem is homework about the Middle Ages...
- I'll be right there!
She could tell that he was smiling again.
- Okay, C ya later then...
- Bye.
-Bye.
She hung up. She felt really sorry for A.J. He'd really loved Amanda and she... she'd run out of love for him...
She didn't know for how long she'd been sitting there feeling sorry for A.J. before somebody knocked at the door.
- Come in, she said.
- Why are you crying? A.J. smiled, I'm going to help you, promise.
- I'm not crying, she smiled and got up.
- ANGELICA SARAH FLOWER, OPEN THIS DOOR RIGHT NOW! yelled Kevin at the door.
- NO! She screamed back.
- You open up right now Angelica!
- No, I will not!
- Angelica just open the door!
- NO!
- Why not?
- I don't want to!
- Just open the door Anya!
It was silent for a while before she opened the door.
- What?
- Look I didn't yell at you last night when you got home drunk, but I'd like some explanations right now.
- Well I don't want to tell you anything, she was just about to close the door again but Kevin butted his foot between.
- You are going to tell me where in hell you where last night!
- I was at a party okay!
- No, coming home drunk is not okay, he opened the door.
- Would you just leave Kevin!
- No, I won't and you know that. This means that I can't leave you alone when I go back on tour.
She just starred at him.
- Then what are you going to do then?
- Taking you with me, do I have a choice perhaps?
- Yeah, you can always leave me here or send me back to that home again!
- You know that's the last thing I would do, he said and sat down beside her, look Anya, I don't know what's wrong right now but...
- Can we talk about something else please?
- No we can't, I'm worried about you.
- Why?
- Look here Anya, I really love you and I don't want you to get harmed. I don't know what happened last night, but if something happened that you know I would like to know please tell me.
- Okay, I got drunk and met this guy, he drew me home again because I was drunk. Happy?
- I really don't buy that story.
- You can always ask Howie then.
- What?
- Howie drew me home last night, okay?
- You met Howie at a party?
- Yes, you can call him if you want to, I don't care!
- Calm down Anya, he said softly, you know I will call him but if you're lying to me...
- I'm not!
- I sure hope so...
She starred out the window instead of looking at him. She didn't care what he did anymore, she just didn't want to be staying there alone when he left...
- I'm going to call D. now and I hope that you're telling me the truth.
- I am.
- Okay, he picked up the phone in her room and dialed Howie's number.
- Hello?
- Hi Howie, said Kevin and looked at Angelica, did you meet Anya on a party last night?
- She told you, hu?
- Yeah, what happened there?
- Well she was drunk and since I knew you couldn't have let her out like that I drew her home. Nothing else have happened, right?
- No, said Keivn, thanks D.
- No problem, just don't let her run arount like that again.
- I didn't let her, she sneaked out last night...
- Oh...
- Yeah, well I haft to talk to her now. Thanks again D.
- It's okay, bye.
- Bye.
He hang up.
- Well, at least your stories matched...
- I told you.
- Yeah, but you still came home drunk...
- Would you have preferred if I didn't came home at all?
- No, he pulled her in to a hug, I love you Anya and I just don't want you to get hurt, please understand that.
- I understand it's just... I...
She couldn't finish the sentence, he wouldn't like it. How could she tell him that the only reason she got drunk was because she didn't want him to leave her alone in Orlando in a couple of days.
She looked at her new room for the day. Nice and bright, but she didn't want it bright, she wanted it dark and sad like she felt. Sure she loved Kevin but not as a father... she'd actually fallen in love with her adoptive father... She shook her head, "How could I bee so stupid" But it just couldn't be her, she knew he loved her, the only problem was that she didn't know in which way... She just wished that she had someone to talk to, someone who would be there right now, someone...
- Anya?
- Yeah? She got up and looked at him.
- Wanna catch a movie? He asked.
- Sure Bone, she smiled, do you got the time?
- Yeah, we got tonight but then we'll leave again as usual.
- As usual, she said a bit sad.
- What's wrong? He asked and looked surprised at her.
- It's just I... No I can't tell you.
- Please you can tell me anything Anya, he smiled and closed the door.
- No, I can't tell anyone about this, she said coldly and threw herself at the bed.
- Come on, he went over to her and sat down beside her, don't be silly you can tell me anyting.
- No, no Bone, I can't ! This is so... I just can't!
- What's the matter, he said and looked confused at her.
- It's me and...
- Do you got PMS?
- No I do not, she punced his arm, it's nothing like that.
- Then I can help you, he smiled, would you just tell me?
- I can't, this is so horrible Bone, it's just impossible!
- Nope, that word doesn't exist, everything is possible.
- Not this, it's wrong, so totally wrong...
- Okay, now you are kind of scaring me, tell me what has happen before I start thinking that it's something worse than it is.
- I can't...
- You can tell me anything, I won't say a word I promise.
She looked at him for a while...
- If you tell anyone about this I promise I will kill you...
- I won't tell anyone, he smiled, now what is it?
- I've fallen in love, she whispered.
- That's great! He smiled, Who's the lucky guy?
- That's the worst part, I shouldn't love HIM! Anyone else but not him.
- I don't understand...
- I'm in love with Kevin, she whispered.
- Wow! He starred at her.
- Tell anyone and I'll kill you slowly and very painfully.
- That wouldn't surprise me at all, but Kev? Does he know?
- Of course he doesn't! How would I be able to tell him? I'm supposed to look at him as a father and I...
- Look, it's okay. He's your adoptive father not your blood father, it's a big difference.
- But it's not right anyway.
- No, but it's better... Look, this probably will go away, he got his bad sides, like getting up in the morning...
- I know but I kind of love that part, waking him up I mean...
- You like waking Kevin up? He starred at her, Okay now it's official, you are insane!
- No, he's so cute in the morning and...
- Totally demented!
- Stop it Bone! It isn't funny!
- No, he said with a bit sadness in his voice, it isn't.
- What am I going to do? I can't love HIM!
- Well, how much do you love him?
- More than I ever loved anyone...
- In what way?
- As in I want him as a boyfriend way...
- Nothing more?
- Nothing that I'd tell you...
- Tell me...
- I think his sexy, she practically whispered, I just wanna...
- Okay, he said before she could finish her sentence, I don't want any details...
- Nothing like that, or well... I know what you're thinking about and if I did think like that I wouldn't tell you.
- Thanks, he said, I'm relived.
- Please tell me it will pass...
- I'm not the one with the crush, I can't tell...
- How about that movie...
- Changing subject hu? Well... It starts at 8 p.m., it's a love movie of some kind, you'll love it.
- And you'll hate it, as long as nobody ends up in a big pile of blood.
- No, I like love movies too!
- But not as much as horror movies...
- Well, it's not the same thing you know... A couple who always end up happy or someone getting stabbed to death, I mean how can you even compare that?
- Yeah, I prefer the happy ending, but that only happens in movies...
- Yupp, that's why you always should prefer the horror movies and the blood-bath!
- And you're saying that I'm the one who's insane.
- Well, I'm not the one in love with Kev...
- And I'm not the one who's biggest fantasy is stabbing someone to death!
- That's not my biggest fantasy, and you know it!
- I don't wanna hear about your little threesome-fantasy!
- I was not going to say that one, okay.
- Then what was you going to say?
- Just that you don't haft to stab anyone to death you can always mangle someone or just cut him open and play with the liver, heart, lungs and...
- You're sick!
- Maybe... but I'm still not the one who's fallen in love with Train...
- Let's go see that movie, she got up from the bed.
- What ever you say, he smiled.
- Life sucks, she muttered when she looked at Kevin singing "I'll never break your heart" to one of the fans.
She just wanted that girl to fall down dead right then... A.J. must have understood that because he came up to her and sang to her. Like in that way saying that it's nothing to bother even thinking about. She smiled again and gave him a kiss on the cheek.
He smiled back at her, he knew she'd understood his point.
The next week was to much for her to take and at the Saturday night she realized that she had to talk to Kevin about it... She just couldn't keep it a secret anymore.
- Anya, he said a bit sad, I love you too, and maybe not in the way that a father should love his daughter but I haft to look at you as my daughter you understand that right?
- Yes, she said sad and looked down at the floor.
- You know age is just a number to me but I'm your father too...
- Until the day I die I'll always love you Kevin, she said and looked up in his green eyes.
- And I love you too but... it's an impossible love... I'm your father now and...
- Why, why is it so impossible?
- I'd give anything to make this right but we can't be a couple, I'd love to but...
- I know that, I know what the law says but my heart is saying something totally different.
- If it only was the two of us, he said softly and hugged her, then it would be possible but as your father I can't be your boyfriend please understand that.
- I do, it's just that I don't want it to be that way, she putted her arms around his neck.
- You'll find someone else Anya, I promise, you got all your life and you...
- I don't want someone else Kev, I love you... there must be some way...
- I highly doubt that we can make someone else of the guys your adoptive father because of that you've fallen in love with me and I in you.
- Why not?
- It wouldn't work, they would ask why it would be like that and then what would we answer?
- I don't know, she cried.
- Anya I love you, but this can't be...
- Why, why can't it be the two of us? Love's suppose to pass all barriers so why not this one?
- Cause this one isn't meant to be passed, this is an impossible love Anya... I'm sorry to say it but it is...
- I don't believe that, she whispered, I think that we can overcome this.
He didn't answer her. He just held her in his arms and thought of how he really wanted her to be his girlfriend, 16 or not.
It has gone one month since Angela told Kevin how she really felt for him. He has done his best not to show his feelings for her but without succeeding. A.J. is the only one of the rest of the Boys who know about them but Howie is starting to suspect something.
He kissed her softly and she responded with pulling him closer in to a passionate kiss. He couldn't help it anymore and she didn't even try to stop him, this was what she wanted.
- Look guys, said A.J., I think that...
Kevin pulled away from her and starred at A.J. She looked a bit embarrassed at him and then she started crying.
- What a hell is going on here?
- Look I, Kevin hugged her, I can't stop it anymore Bone, I know it's wrong but...
- She's your daughter now Kevin! Ang Angelica he's your father now. You shouldn't even think about each other like that!
- Don't cry, he said with his softes voice and wiped away her tears.
- And you stop talking like that! A.J. starred at him, I can't believe this! I knew that you loved each other but that you'd actually do something...
- We haven't done anything more than kiss, he said with an angry but still confused tone.
- But that's still wrong!
- We know, she said and stroke his hair.
- And stop playing with his hair! Would you get away from each other! What you are doing is wrong!
She got up and sat down at the other side of the sofe instead.
- Better, he said and went over to them, Kevin you of all people... You're always the one who says what's wrong and what's right to the rest of us and now you go and do something that none of us other ever would even think about!
- I know but I love her Bone and I really can't help it...
- That's not good enough! And you Anya! You know how it is at bad homes and that you would do this...
- What are you screaming about? It was Brian who came in.
- Why don't you guys tell him? said A.J. coldly.
Angelica starred at the floor and Kevin didn't say a word.
- Close the door, muttered A.J.
- What's going on here? Howie and Nick came in to the room followed by Denise.
- Mom, can you leave?
- What?
- It's something I haft to tell the guys and Anya and... would you just leave, please?
- Okay, she said and left the room.
- What are you guys doing, asked Nick, if Kevin was a girl I'd guess trying your threesome-fantasy but...
- It got nothing to do with me, A.J. interrupted him, and as far as that threesome thing goes these two could have a duo...
- Okay A.J. we undestand that you are mad, said Brian calmly, but Kevin is Anya's father...
- Well that don't seem to stop them, he hissed and gave them a dirty look.
- A.J. calm down, Nick said without really believing a single word A.J. said.
- No I think this is interesting, said Howie and looked first at Anya, then at Kevin and then at A.J.
Anya avoided to look him in the eyes and Kevin's eyes wandered all over the room. A.J.'s veins started to pop out and he was obviously pissed off.
- Why aren't they defending themselves if what he is saying is wrong? Howie looked at Kevin.
- Cause it's true, Kevin mumbled and got up.
- You slept with her! Nick starred at him.
- No!
- Then what?
- I walked in on them kissing like there was no tomorrow, A.J. said hostile.
Nobody said anything. They just starred at Kevin and Angelica who were sitting at each corner of the sofa.
- For how long has this been going on, said Howie disgusted.
- Well they have been in love for a month or so, said A.J., but for how long they have been kissing an God knows what else...
- Today, she screamed, today we kissed for the first time! Happy A.J.? I trusted you!
- And I trusted you that you wasn't going to do anything! Don't you think I would have acted if I knew you wouldn't be able to keep your hands of each other?
- This is so, Brian couldn't finish his sentence but they all understood thow repulsive he thought it was.
- If... Kevin she's only your adoptive daughter, she's 16 years old! You are 27! Howie just starred at him.
Kevin looked at Anya who'd started crying again. He went over to her and wiped her tears away and kissed her easily at her lips.
- Please don't cry, I love you and I don't care what they say...
- KEVIN! Nick yelled, Cut it out! It's sickening!
She took his hand and smiled. It was like if they were on another planet where no one else existed.
- Would you two break apart, yelled Howie, I really don't want to see this!
- Would you cut it out, hissed A.J. and went over to them and pulled Angelica away from Kevin.
- Let her go! Kevin got up and seemed to be ready to kill A.J.
Anya got away from A.J. and ran over to Kevin who pulled her closer.
- You guys are to much you know that! Howie starred at them, She's your daughter!
- And I lover her, I can't help it D.!
- You can love her but not in that way, yelled A.J.
- Why don't you just leave us alone, she screamed.
- Cause this is disgusting! said Nick angry and starred at them, Anya you can't stay with him and you know it! His your father!
- Adoptive father! She said.
- Still your father!
- Can you guys leave us alone, said Kevin, Anya and I need to talk...
- We are going to be right outside the door, said Howie coldly, and you got two minutes.
- If even that, said A.J. and left.
The other followed his example and slammed the door. Anya looked up at Kevin and smiled.
- I love you, he whispered.
- I love you too, she smiled and stroke his hair, I don't care what they say...
- I don't either, he smiled and kissed her softly, how about you and me run away tonight?
- As in never coming back?
- As in never coming back, he smiled.
- Can we leave now?
- Get your bags, he smiled.
She gave him one last kiss and went to her room through the rejoining door. He hurried and pulled out his bags and looked out the window. They would make it, they had a car over there and all the guys had a spare key. They just had to climb down the ladder and they would be free.
- Out the window? She whispered.
- Yes, he smiled and opened it and went out taking his bags with him and then hers.
- Hurry, she smiled.
When they got in to the car they just threw the bags in the back seat and Kevin started the car. At the same time as they drew out from the parking-lot hte rest of the Boys came in to the room.
- Where are they? Said A.J. angry.
- The window! Said Nick, They went out the window and...
He went over to the window and looked down.
- ... and took the carl... They are off and we aren't going to get hold of them...
- How did this happen! Yelled Howie.
Brian didn't say anything. He couldn't believe that his cousin had kissed his daughter, adopted but still...
- You really think that we're going to be able to get away from it all, she smiled.
- Definitely, he smiled, at least from the Boys, the fans are probably going to recognize us but hopefully not. I love you Anya.
- I love you too Kevin, she smiled, I can't believe that we're doing this!
- We better hurry to the airport before they call and see where we are heading.
She smiled and gave him a kiss on his cheek.
- Okay, they are at the airport, yelled Denise, the car is standing there, I've asked the personal to stop them if they tries to get on a plane.
- Good, let's hurry, yelled Howie still angry at Kevin for even thinking about Anya at the way he obviously did.
Anya kissed Kevin as the plane took of, they were going to New York and from there to another big city, as soon as possible.
- Finaly free, he smiled and kissed her.
"Finaly free" she thought.
--- Two days has passed and Kevin and Anya are in London, England while the Boys are trying to find them in the US. ---
- I can't believe that we're actually here, she smiled and lied down beside him.
- Ditto, he smiled and looked at her, thanks for the massage.
- Your welcome, she said and kissed him.
- Love you.
- Love you too.
They were both thinking the same thing. They couldn't be hiding forever, and somehow they had to get rid of that father/daughter thing that they really regretted now.
- Do you think they are looking for us? He said softly.
- Yeah, she looked him in his wonderful green eyes, what would they do otherwise?
- I don't know, he said a bit sad, I just can't believe that we just left like we did...
- Do you regret it?
- No, he smiled and kissed her, but I regret that we separated as enemies...
- So does I, she whispered.
- Do you think that we should...
- ...call them?
- Yeah, he looked at her, he really loved her brown eyes.
- Maybe, she started playing with his hair, but only if we leave London right afterwards. He smiled. She knew he had to check on the guys even though they probably were mad at him still. He understood them, he would have been furious if it would have been anyone else that had done the same thing.
- You need to get a haircut, she smiled and turned over and kept looking at MTV.
He didn't answer her they kept on watching for about ten minutes without saying anything.
"This is the MTV news, I'm Trey and what can I tell you? Kevin Richardson from the Backstreet Boys are missing since two days when he and tre rest of the Boys had a fight and he ran off taking his adoptive daughter with him. We have a little video-clip from the other four Backstreet Boys if Kevin would be watching:"
Kevin starred at the TV. It was the guys, they hadn't told the press what the fight had been about for obvious reasons but he could tell that Brian still couldn't believe what had happen, Howie and Nick was sad and A.J. still angry.
"Kevin and Angelica" said Howie with obvious pain in his voice "please come back so we can straighten things out. We've been working on it and we've found a way to legally work things out for you. "
"We, the fans, the band, the dancers and everybody misses you" said Nick "we can work this out if you just please could come back. "
"Kevin" said A.J. you could tell that he still was mad and Nick and Howie looked at him with a warning look "would you just come back, and that goes for Angelica too, we can work this out, you know we can. So just get your asses on a plane over here, or at least give your mother a call Kevin, she's freaking out. "
"And then we have the..."
Kevin turned off the TV. Anya looked at him, he was about to cry any second.
- Call your mother, she said softly and handed him the mobile, just tell her that you're all right and that we're coming back.
He looked at her, a bit surprised and took the mobile and started dialing. She watched him, she really loved him and wanted to spend her life with him...
- Hi mom, he said a bit sad, how are you?
A moment of silence...
- Anya and me are going back, we're in London, England, we're fine mom, don't worry. Yes you can tell them that we're here. Yes mom. I love you too. Bye.
He hang up and looked at Anya.
- We got ourselves in to a big mess, right, she said and kissed him softly.
He nodded and putted on his sweater again.
- Can we leave now? He said as a tear rolled down his cheek.
- Yes, she said and wiped the tear away, I'll get the bags.
She got up and left him alone for a while.
- Mr. Richardson, said a man, I can't let you get on to the plane.
- Look, me and Anya are going back to Orlando, if you don't believe me then just check out the destination for the flight, he looked at the man standing in front of him.
- Wait right here, he picked up the phone and started dialing.
- Let's go, whispered Anya and followed Kevin on to the plane.
- Mr. Richardson, Mr. Richardson, wait Mr. Richardson!
He ignored the man and went on and sat down at his seat with Anya beside him. Going home again... He looked at her, he was going to loos her one way or another. Either she'd be placed in another home or he had to look at her as his daughter again... and since he couldn't do tha last thing...
They putted on the headphones and Kevin almost started crying when he heard what song it was... She looked at him and tried to understand why he all of the sudden got so sad. The song was beautiful and she'd always liked it. Bette Midler's "The Wind Beneath My Wings". Right in that moment he felt so terrible, cause that was how it was...
"It must
have been cold there in my shadow,
To never have sunlight on your face.
You were content to let me shine, that's your way,
You always walked a step behind.
So I was the one with all the glory,
While you were the one with all the strain.
A beautiful face without a name, for so long.
A beautiful smile to hide the pain..."
He took the headphones of, he just couldn't listen to this.
She and the fans, always there but behind them so they - the Backstreet Boys - could be in the sun and glory. They were satisfied if they were happy... He couldn't believe that he hadn't seen it before. He looked at her, she was smiling again, she was so beautiful and still...
What he had done to her was so wrong and still she hadn't said no... Sure she said that she loved him but did she really loved him in that way? He started doubting it but still she was the one who had told him that she loved him, not the other way around...
When the plane crashed down all he could think of was she, holding his hand so tight but she didn't cry, she didn't scream...
He opened his eyes slowly, he could feel someone holding his hand.
- It's going to be okay Boo, she said.
- Mom, he whispered, what...
- Don't talk, she said softly, the plane got hit by a lightning and crashed...
- Anya...
- She didn't make it, said another voice he knew so well.
- She's dead, the tears stared to come, when...
- She froze to death, at the ocean... you were out there for four days... You've been in a coma for three weeks...
- I've been what? He starred at Howie.
- It was a miracle that you maid it, about 60 people died, said Nick and looked at him, you have some cuts but nothing else...
- The doctors said that you'd wake up any minute, his mother said and wiped away a tear, but it took 23 days... they started doubting it and... You're awake now, that's what's important.
- No, he mumbled, it's not... Anya is dead...
- You can't change that, said A.J., but I wish that we hadn't yelled at you guys like we did. It's just...
- No Bone, I understand, Kevin looked at him, I would have gone furiouse if it would have been someone else who'd done the same thing... It was an impossible love and we knew it...
- Mr. Richardson, said a strange voice, I'm dr. Rose. You can be leaving tomorrow if you want to... you don't have any severe cuts or any brain damages...
He nodded slowly.
"Just a terrible heartache..." he thought. He heard that song again, but this time in his head...
"It must
have been cold there in my shadow,
To never have sunlight on your face.
You were content to let me shine, that's your way,
You always walked a step behind.
So I was the one with all the glory
While you were the one with all the strain.
A beautiful face without a name, for so long.
A beautiful smile to hide the pain.
Did you ever know that you're my hero,
and everything I would like to be?
I can fly higher than an eagle,
You are the wind beneath my wings.
It might have appeared to go unnoticed,
But I've got it all here in my heart.
I want you to know, I know the truth, 'course I know it,
I would be nothing without you.
Did you ever know that you're my hero?
You're everything I wish I could be.
I can fly higher than an eagle,
For you are the wind beneath my wings.
Did I ever tell you you're me hero,
You're everything, everything, I wish I could be.
Oh and I, I can fly higher than an eagle,
For you are the wind beneath my wings.
'Cause you are the wind benath my wings.
Oh the wind beneath my wings.
You, you, you, you are the wind beneath my wings.
Fly, fly, fly away, you let me fly so high.
Oh you, you, you, the wind beneath my wings,
Oh, you, you, you, the wind beneath my wings.
Fly, fly, so high against the sky, so high I almost touched the
sky,
Thank you, thank you, thank god for you,
The wind beneath my wings. "
THE END!
[Note: And you who think this is sick, Angelica didn't exactly mean to fall in love with Kevin, okay? This story, as many of them, started with a strange little thought popping up in my head, like "What if someone got adopted and fell in love with her adopted parent?" ]
