...What I Really Meant To Say...
CHAPTER FIVE
As Alicia turned around she saw that Nick was the person with his hand on her hip. She all of a sudden felt butterflies in her stomach and her heart started to do flips. It felt so great to be having him touch her again. She missed the feel of his touch. The touch of just his hand holding hers, the touch of his lips against hers. And the touch of him just holding her all together.
She got more into the dance Nick came closer to her wrapping his arm around her waist. She turned around to put her arm around his neck as they danced. She felt so happy. Little did she know he felt the same way.
Nick felt so nervous about making a move to dance with her. But he wanted to dance with her and only her so bad. So he thought to himself why not. He was so happy that Alicia didn�t move away from him. He was so afraid of rejection. He wouldn�t be able to handle her rejecting him again.
As the song ended Truly, Madly, Deeply by Savage Garden came on. Alicia and Nick�s song. Nick wrapped both his arms around Alicia while she rested her head on his shoulder. Both of them remembering when they first heard this song.
I'll be your dream
I'll be your wish I'll be your fantasy
I'll be your hope I'll be your love
Be everything that you need
I'll love you more with every breath
Truly, madly, deeply do
I will be strong I will be faithful
'cause I'm counting on
A new beginning
A reason for living
A deeper meaning, yeah
*FLASHBACK*
�Hey Alicia do you want to go to Mike�s party. All the guys are going to be there with their girlfriends. It should be fun. I know how much you miss talking to the girls. You guys are practically best friends.� Nick pleaded hoping that she�d go to the party with him.
�Sure I really would like to see them especially Amanda. I miss her tons!� Alicia said happily.
�Great we�ll be leaving around 6 so make sure your ready. I want to make sure I get some food before everyone else eats it all!� Nick said happily.
*END FLASHBACK*
I want to stand with you on
a mountain
I want to bath with you in the sea
I want to lay like this forever
Until the sky falls down on me
*FLASHBACK*
As the night was winding down everyone was listening to the radio and just talking. Then all of a sudden the new song by Savage Garden came on. Nick had bought Alicia the CD for her birthday and new this was her favorite song off the album. He took this as his chance to ask her to dance.
�Hey A-Leesh, do you want to dance?� Nick whispered in her ear while she was sitting in his lap talking to Amanda.
She turned around and looked him in the eyes and smiled. She didn�t need to say anything he new her answer. The both stood up and walked into the middle of the patio and started to dance.
*END FLASHBACK*
And when the stars are shining
brightly in the velvet sky,
I'll make a wish send it to heaven
Then make you want to cry
The tears of joy for all the
pleasure in the certainty
That we're surrounded by the
comfort and protection of
The highest powers
In lonely hours
The tears devour you
*FLASHBACK*
Nick and Alicia danced in the middle of the patio while everyone looked upon them. They looked so happy and perfect together. None of the guys knew when the last time Nick looked this happy. Neither Nick nor Alicia noticed everyone looking at them. All they could focus on was that they were together and they were happy. Nothing could ever tear them apart.
Nick grabbed Alicia�s hand and pulled away from her. He started walking towards the beach with her tagging along. As they reached the beach Nick held her close and started to sing to her. Her favorite Backstreet Boy song, �Anywhere For You.�
�Did you have fun tonight?� Nick asked standing behind her with his arms around her while they where looking at the stars.
�Yea I did. It was great. I had so much fun. And I loved dancing with you to Savage Garden.� Alicia said while in a complete daze. She was on cloud nine.
�That�s our song. That song says everything about how I feel for you Alicia. It really does. I�ll do anything to make you happy.� Nick said. Bringing Alicia almost into tears.
*END FLASHBACK*
I want to stand with you on
a mountain
I want to bath with you in the sea
I want to lay like this forever
Until the sky falls down on me
Oh can you see it baby?
You don't have to close your eyes
'Cause it's standing right here
before you
All that you need with surely come
I'll be your dream I'll be your wish
I'll be your fantasy
I'll be your hope I'll be your love
Be everything that you need
I'll love you more with every breath
Truly, madly, deeply do
I want to stand with you on
a mountain
I want to bath with you in the sea
I want to lay like this forever
Until the sky falls down on me
I want to stand with you on a
mountain
I want to bathe with you in the sea
I want to live like this forever
Until the sky falls down on me
As the song ended Alicia and Nick pulled apart and stared into each other�s eyes like that night 4 years ago. Nick slowly bent down only to find their lips meeting each other.
