It's been a week since I've had that dream. I'm still trying to figure out why AJ was in the dream. Oh well...

You Can Still Be Free
Cool breeze and autumn leaves
Slow motion daylight
A lone pair of watchful eyes
Oversee the living
Feel the presence all around
A tortured soul
A wound unhealing
No regrets or promises
The past is gone
But you can still be free
If time will set you free

Time now to spread your wings
To take to flight
The life endeavor
Aim for the burning sun
You're trapped inside
But you can still be free
If time will set you free
But it's a long long way to go
Keep moving way up high
You see the light
It shines forever
Sail through the crimson skies
The purest light
The light that sets you free
If time will set you free

Sail through the wind and rain tonight
You're free to fly tonight
And you can still be free
If time will set you free
And going higher than the mountain tops
And go high like the wind don't stop
And go high
Free to fly tonight
Free to fly tonight

I sat at the kitchen bar writing a song for God only knows why. I just needed to get my feelings on paper. The feeling of Los Angeles, the City of Angels. Everyone there had their demons. Including me. At night they would really show. The crazies thought of vampires showing themselves in the dark of the night. A legend of Angelus, Angel, a demon, well vampire, with and Angelic face and a human soul, who came to L.A. to find remorse. They even have a hit TV show for the believers. The show reveals the true feeling that I had of L.A. I wrote of that.

I wrote of my feelings for AJ. Just everything having to do with him I loved. I really didn't expect to fall in love with him but I did. Only two days and I'm in love. People think he's a jerk by how he looks. But he's got a really big heart. The other day a cab was going around a corner and didn't see an old woman trying to walk across the street. AJ saw this and took her bags that she was holding and walked with her to the other side of the road. He didn't know that I was watching but that was beautiful. I fell in love with him even more.

"Sky...Sky??? HELLOOOOOO!!" Hearing my name I broke out of my trance to see Derek waving his hand before my face.

"Hey."

"You all right?"

"Yeah... just thinking. About everything... LA, AJ... DAMN!!!! He's got this major effect on me!!"

"All I have to say is if he ever hurts you, any way shape or form I'm gonna have to kick his ass! You got me?"

"Yeah. Thanks." That brought my spirits a little bit. "I wish I could have you around more often! You don't know how much it helps. Thank you!"

"Okay we're getting all sentimental. We gotta get back to normal squirt!"

"Hey!!! I could kick your ass so don't be calling me squirt!" We both laughed. That was the first time I laughed in a long time.
