Push is sung by Sky, the CD: "A Piece of Paradise" is produced by Phat Royale. Here we go: Push (01/01) "And we have a caller..." the Nightcrawler noted pushing a button. "Hello?" "Hi.. I would like to request a song," the young female voice requested. LaCroix smiled as he recognized the voice. "What song would that be?" "It's by Sky, the name of the song I want to hear is 'Push'," she told him. LaCroix's eyebrow went crooked. "Alright, if that's why you want. This is 'Push' by the amazing Quebec duo, Sky!" *** Could you be holding out for something more maybe I'm not what you're looking for *** Tracy grinned as she heard the song on the radio, hoping LaCroix would hear the clear and musical message she was personally sending to him. She wiped the sweat from her brow as she chopped a carrot and returned to chopping again. But she kept on wondering.. did LaCroix really love her? Thoughts circled in her mind as to what LaCroix's true feelings for her were. The song just continued as she wondered. *** but I'll be waiting if you change your mind everybody tells me it's just a waste of time *** LaCroix took a sip of his glass wine as he heard the song. He knew Tracy was trying to send him a message, but he chose to ignore the message at the present time. He was stubborn in the matters of love, and never held on to his loved ones long enough. *** and if I give up hope well then I might as well lay down and die and that's why I'm asking *** Tracy laid on her couch staring at the ceiling as she relaxed. The preparation of tomorrow's lunch had been a tough and grueling process but now she finally had time to relax. However, the troubled thoughts of her relationship with Lucien circled her mind. *** - Chorus - why (do) you always push me away cuz I try to do the best I can for you *** LaCroix looked up from his microphone as he saw Nicholas come in. He looked flushed as if he had been just flying through the sky at high speeds. LaCroix put a finger to his lips as he got up from his chair, motioning Nick to sit down. Nick pointed to the CD rack wondering if he was to play more CDs. LaCroix nodded and turned around, walking out the door. *** so I'm asking why (do) you always push me away cuz I try to do the best I can for you *** Tracy closed her eyes for a moment as the music serenaded her overworked mind. Hands came to her neck and she flashed open her eyes, gasping for a breath of air, ready to scream "Am I really that cold?" She smiled. "You startled me, Lucien!" she exclaimed hugging him. He grinned while getting closer to her. *** seems like I've known you forever but still you don't know I'm alive why can't we just be together *** "You know, you have the most strangest requests," he grinned hearing the music surround the entire room. She smiled. "I like the song.. it's gentle yet has a beat," she told him getting up. "But you're trying to tell me something, aren't you?" he asked her suddenly. "Yes," she replied pulling him closer. *** cuz it seems the world is made for you and I and if I give up hope well then I might as well lay down and die and that's why I'm asking *** "We are alone.. in such a world.. of amazing feats.." he whispered. "And we shall die, together. If death shall touch us.." she continued. "Such darkness.. brings such dark love.." he trailed off gently kissing her on the lips. *** - Chorus - why (do) you always push me away cuz I try to do the best I can for you *** He kissed her gently on the lips wrapping his arms around her. She murmured softly as she loved the cool sensation of a vampire's lips on her own. "I love it when you talk dark logic.." she laughed kissing him again. *** so I'm asking why (do) you always push me away cuz I try to do the best I can for you *** She pushed him away and got up off the couch. "Come here.. my vampire jockey.." she whispered beckoning him with her finger.. *** I just called cuz I was thinking about you (x2) *** He got up to face her, and stepped closer to her as she backed away into the bedroom. "And we would be...? Oh.. I see," he realized with a cool calm expression. She grinned and motioned him to go closer. *** you got to let me know if I'm getting through *** "You got through baby.. c'mon. Come here.." "Baby?" he asked. "I am no baby.." "Yes you are, you hopeless Roman romantic..." she drew him closer to her. *** and you know that I'm only just a step away from crazy this is what you do to me *** "And I thought we had relationship problems..." he whispered closing the door and hugging her closely. She gently kissed him on the lips. A whole lotta lovin' was done that night. And it shall continue. *** - Chorus - why (do) you always push me away cuz I try to do the best I can for you so I'm asking why (do) you always push me away cuz I try to do the best I can for you *** ~The End!~ Mir specmir@home.com http://miranda.bradet.com "In the right hands.. these needles can cause.. exquisite pain..." --Kasajian (Played by NB) from "Back In Action"
