dr-jwilsonmd.livejournal.comHe'd slept well last night, curled up against House and with his pager blessedly silent for the night. There had been one small instance of a night terror but House had quickly soothed it away and Wilson had closed his eyes, vulnerable and trusting in his lover to keep the rest of the night peaceful for them both.
Morning found Wilson up and restless with House grumbling something about the evils of sunlight and pulling the blankets back over his head so the younger man had pulled himself together and headed out for a morning walk. He'd gone by The Perk for coffee and today, perhaps in fear of the beach at this point, he wandered into the Park.
He hadn't been down to the pond yet, though he'd heard about it in passing conversations and decided that was as good a destination as any. It was a nice morning, if perhaps a bit chilly, the morning sun cast little crystals of rainbow color across the dew laden grass and Wilson smiled to himself as he took in deep breaths of the crisp air. Finding a bench that had been warmed dry by the sun's rays he settled down and sprawled his legs out in front of him, looking out across the still water. Somewhere, out of the corner of his eye he thought he saw a duck go paddling by but his attention was focused inwards.
He was thinking about Julie, thinking about what had driven him out here to this rather...unique island called Fandom. Without being completely aware of doing so, he began to sing aloud the lyrics to an old song from his past.
"Rock on- gold dust woman, Take your silver spoon, And dig your grave, Heartless challenge, Pick your path and I'll pray,
Wake up in the morning, See your sunrise- loves- to go down, Lousy lovers- pick their prey, But they never cry out loud."
Tapping his toe in time with the beat in his head, at least Wilson was a good singer...even unaccompanied, it was about the only special talent, outside medicine, that he could lay claim to.
"Did she make you cry, Make you break down, Shatter your illusions of love, Is it over now- do you know how, Pick up the pieces and go home. Rock on - Ancient Queen, Follow those who pale, In your shadow, Rulers make bad lovers, You better put your kingdom up for sale."
Taking a sip of his coffee, Wilson closed his eyes, making himself picture his ex-wife's face as he tried to answer questions the song unerringly touched upon.
"Did she make you cry, Make you break down, Shatter your illusions of love, Is it over now- do you know how, Pickup the pieces and go home."
Wrinkling his nose, Wilson let the sound of his own voice echo in his ear as he lay his head back against the back of the bench and stared up at the bright blue sky. It really was... a most beautiful morning.
[ooc: No angst, promise just singing and thinking if anyone wants to wander by.]
