NICCOLE'S POV
Now that I'm in the room for the first time, I take my time to properly glance around. It's really...manly. I didn't even know what word to use to describe it. It fit him I guess. The furniture were artfully designed, thoughtfully placed. The really wide, four poster king sized bed made the room have an ancient feel to it, but that only covered a portion of the room. It was a really large room. There was a little dining area as well, having a simple yet elegant looking table and an arranged splay of four chairs. Then there was some sort of balcony, that would probably give you a nice view to outside, no doubt. The overall view of the room though, was done in mainly dark brown, mahogany, and grey. The room had some sort of musky smell to it, very much like how Quillon smelled. Like ghe cologne, whichever one he used, was specifically designed to fit his skin, his character.
"Aunt Cole, Quillon has a piano, and he can play. I told him you know how to sing. Please sing a song. Please" Bonnie breaks into my thoughts, her eyes beginning to water
Brat! She definitely knows my weak points and know I can't resist her anything when she threatens to cry. So even though I'm not in the mood to sing, I nod in agreement, making her know that I indeed will her a song.
Quillon and I stand up, Bonnie's in my arms, and we all head over to the piano at another corner of his room, and he sits on it
"I didn't know you sing" he admitted, giving me a smile
"And I didn't know you play" I retorted, matching his smile with one of my own
"I'm going to sing someone to stay by Vancouver Sleep" I say as a preamable, so Quillon knows what to expect. Then I began, airing out my soft soprano voice
You were alone, left out in the cold Clinging to the ruin of your broken home Too lost and hurting, to carry your load We all need someone to hold
You've been fighting the memory all on your own Nothing washes, nothing grows I know how it feels, being by yourself in the rain We all need someone to stay We all need someone to stay
Hear you falling and lonely, cry out Will you fix me up? Will you show me hope? The end of the day, I'm helpless Can you keep me close? Can you love me most?
You've drunk it down and now you've spat it out Nothing tastes like the things you had So tear it off, why don't you let them go? We all need someone to stay We all need someone to stay
Hear you falling and lonely, cry out "Will you fix me up? Will you show me hope? The end of the day, I'm helpless Can you keep me close? Can you love me most? Can you keep me close? Can you love me most? Can you keep me close? Can you love me most?"
You were alone, left out in the cold Clinging to the ruin of your broken heart
You were falling and lonely, cry out: Will you fix me up? Will you show me hope? The end of the day, I'm helpless Can you keep me close? Can you love me?
Oh oh Oh oh Oh oh Oh oh
Hear you falling and lonely, cry out "Will you fix me up? Will you show me hope? The end of the day, I'm helpless Can you keep me close? Can you love me most? Can you keep me close? Can you love me most? Can you keep me close? Can you love me most?"
By the time I'm done with the song, Bonnie begins to cry, and so do I as well. The song bringing the pain and remembrance of Narlia once more, and with a broken heart, I hear Bonnie say
"She's gone. She's really gone. I didn't want to believe it before. Mummy's gone"
I hug her tightly, as we both cry hard, trying to find closure of some sort, from the corner of my eye, I see Quillon slowly backing away, most likely to give us space to grieve and be on our own, but I shook my head, motioning for him to come over. In just period of time of knowing him, he's offered me more comfort than anybody has. Attentive. Caring. He's even taken care of Bonnie when he didn't even have to. So he deserved to be part of this. I wasn't going to push him away just because I was grieving.
When he finally walks closer to me, as if sensing what I need, he opens his arms, and with Bonnie still in mine, I walk into the safe haven of his arms. And together we're both craddling Bonnie, giving comforts to ourselves as well
