[HANSON STORIES]

Guardian

Epilogue



I looked up from my keyboard and towards Zac. He smiled at me and glanced over at Ike. I smiled back and continued to play. It had been a couple of weeks since the whole incident took place. I was lucky and had found both of them at Ike’s house. When they had opened the door, they both looked so shocked then immediately grabbed me and hugged me.

* Beep…Beep…*

I looked down at my watch, noticing my alarm going off.
“Guys…it’s time.” I smiled.
“Okay…” Zac yelled and wheeled himself out of the room and to the front door. We all left Zac’s house and got into the car, me sitting in the front seat with a walkie- talkie in my hand. I smiled over at Ike as he got into the driver’s seat. Zac had made himself comfortable in the back and I grinned at him in the review mirror. We finally took off and headed to Phyllis’ work. It was around ten o’clock at night and pitch black out.

We pulled into the parking lot and turned off the engine. I leaned over and watched carefully at Phyllis left the building and to her car. She unlocked it like normal and got in. she didn’t even glance over at our car. I grinned to myself again and had the walkie-talkie ready. As soon as she started the engine, the song I wrote for her began to play over the speakers.

Touch the moon (By my friend Amanda Friedrich )

Come rest in my arms again
And let’s look at the lunatic moon
It’s shining so high overhead
It whispers peace will come soon
It could be a lie
From the insane moon
It could be a lie
But I need it any way
I need to believe I’m with you
I need to believe that this time, you will stay

Reach with me
Let’s touch the moon
Feel the silver run across our hands
Under the moon
The light binds us together
Let’s touch the moon
So you won’t leave again

Touch your lips to mine
Under the lunatic moon
Let its mad light run over us both
Let’s forget that the sun’s rising soon
It could be a lie
From the laughing moon
It cold be a lie
But we need it any way
I see into your eyes every time I’m with you
I see in your eyes that you need me to stay

Reach with me
Let’s touch the moon
Feel the silver run across our hands
Under the moon
The light binds us together
Let’s touch the moon
So I won’t leave again

(The moon)
We’re under the lunatic moon
(The light)
We’re swimming in silvery light
(Together)
We’re always together under the moon
(Touch the moon)
We may not touch it, but at least we tried

Cradle me against you
Under the lunatic moon
Let’s pretend war doesn’t exist
Let’s pretend the end’s coming soon
It’s just a game
Under the teasing moon
It’s just a game
But we need it any way

Let our hair weave together in the silver light
Just you and me until the advent of day

Reach with me
Let’s touch the moon
Feel the silver run across our hands
Under the moon
The light binds us together
Let’s touch the moon
So you won’t leave again

Come rest in my arms again
Under the lunatic moon
Let’s pretend that there isn’t a mission
Let’s pretend that day isn’t soon
Give me your love
Under the insane moon
Take my love
Let its light be our guide back to shore
For when we’re pulled apart, we won’t be lost
Let’s touch the moon together once more

Reach with me
Let’s touch the moon
Feel the silver run across our hands
Under the moon
The light binds us together
Let’s touch the moon
So I won’t leave again

Reach with me
Let’s touch the moon
Feel the silver run across our hands
Under the moon
The light binds us together
Let’s touch the moon
So I won’t leave again

Kiss the moon
We’re together
Touch the moon
We’re apart
Kiss the moon
We’re together
Touch the moon
We won’t be pulled apart
Touch the moon…


I watched carefully as she just sat there, listening carefully to the song. I could see her put her hand to her face, wiping a way a few tears. I pressed the button on the walkie-talkie and looked out the window.
“I take it you like the song I wrote for you.” I said. She immediately looked all around her car for the source of my voice.
“Taylor!” She yelled as she finally grabbed the walkie-talkie from the floor of the passenger’s side.
“Hey Phyl.” I laughed.
“Oh my god! I love it…where are you…” She said out loud.
“Right next to you.”
“Huh?”
“Right next to you.” She immediately looked over to the parked car next to her. She turned off her engine. Zac rolled down his window and looked at her.
“Don’t you think it’s about time you should hug him!” He yelled and began to laugh. Phyllis blushed and I got out of my side of the car, throwing the walkie-talkie on the passenger’s seat. She jogged over to me, smiling from ear to ear.
“I love you.” She smiled and embraced me.
“Ditto.” I answered, hugging her back tightly. She let go and kissed me deeply.

That was my experience as a guardian angel. The thing I never expected to do…I did, I fell in love with my mission. She wasn’t expecting it either. In the long run, things worked out for the best. Life is good, but I find the after life even better.
