Angel's Wings by Sa'iyda

Nicole Rainey walked out of her office, checking her cell phone. She noticed that she had a text message from her boyfriend Lance. She read it.

Nic, hurry home. I have a surprise for you.

She wondered what the surprise could have been. It wasn't her birthday, or even their anniversary. It was just a regular Friday evening. They didn't have anything planned for the night so she figured that Lance was just being cute and spontaneous. She got in her car and drove home as quickly as she could without breaking any laws. When she got to her apartment, she noticed a note taped to the door.

I would die for you
Lay down my life for you
The only thing that means everything to me
Cause when you're in my arms
You make me prouder than
Than anything I ever could achieve
And you make everything that used to be so big
Seem to be so small since you arrived

Nicole smiled. Lance was using one of her favorite Westlife songs. She took the note off the door and folded it carefully before sticking it in her purse for safe keeping. She took out her keys and opened the door. When she stepped into her apartment, the room was dark except for the dim glow of candle light. There was another note on the table.

Good, you're home. Now go sit at the table and turn on the cd.

She did as she was told and walked to the table. She sat before turning on the boom box.

On angel's wings, an angelical formation
Angel's wings, like letters in the sky
Now I know no matter what the question
Love is the answer
It's written on angel's wings

She sat thoughtfully at the table, contemplating what Lance could possibly be up to. She wasn't one for random acts of romance but she loved the fact that Lance was. She didn't really have it in any of her past relationships so she was always amazed at how Lance could just be so charming and loving. She found yet another note on the table. She realized that the note correlated with the part of the song that was playing.

And I often wonder why
Someone as flawed as I
Deserves to be as happy as you make me
So as the years roll by
I'll be there by your side
I'll follow you wherever your heart takes me
Cause you make everything that used to be so big
Seem to be so small since you arrived

She put the note down and listened to the song.

On angel's wings, an angelical formation
Angel's wings, like letters in the sky
Now I know no matter what the question
Love is the answer
It's written on angel's wings

Just as the chorus was ending, Lance came behind her and pulled her out of her seat. He held her close to him as he sang.

Now anyone who's felt the touch of heaven in their lives
Will know the way I'm feeling looking
In my baby's eyes
That's why I can't bear to be too far away
I know that God must love me cause
He sent you to me on

Angel's wings, an angelical formation
Angel's wings, like letters in the sky
Now I know no matter what the question
Love is the answer
It's written on angel's wings

Love is the answer
It's written on angel's wings

Nicole smiled as the song ended. She moved back a little to look at Lance.

"What was that for?" she asked

"I don't know. I love you and felt like letting you know that." he replied

"You are ao amazing." she said

"No, you are. I love you so much Nic." he said

"I love you too Lance." she replied

They kissed passionately and pulled apart.

"So now what?" she asked

"Let's go out to dinner." he said

"Okay." she agreed

Lance blew out the candles and they walked out of Nicole's apartment hand and hand.
