Please, don't ask me what I'm doing here ... I don't know! ;)

This little ficlet is written for [personal profile] mews1945. Thank you for your links to Celtic Thunder - without you I would never have discovered them and they are so amazing. I really love their CD's - and the DVD is ordered, too.

Okay, it's my first Casey & Zeke - it's in English and without beta ... but maybe you'll like it a little bit.



Title: Like a bird without wings
Pairing: Casey / Zeke
Words: 416

revised story: January 2016



Today was one of these days.

Casey waited for Zeke for two hours now. But he wouldn't come anymore. He just knew it. And it did hurt. For six months they were together now.  Six months, that Zeke had kissed him for the first time and turned his world around. Six wonderful months, six hard months.

Casey loved Zeke. But he was still unsure what Zeke felt for him. He never talked about him. And it was difficult to read his mind. He had learned to hide his thoughts from others well.

Casey knew the reason, too often someone had betrayed and hurt him. The thick shell he had built up around him was hard to break through. There were moments full of tenderness and nearness. But there also were days, when Zeke completely withdrew into himself. Then he could bear no one around to him. Not even Casey. Days like these scared Casey. He was afraid, that one day Zeke might not be able to find the way back to him.

A sudden noise near his window tore him out of his thoughts. He opened it and looked around. But there wasn't a soul in sight. Probably just a bird or a squirrel. But then he noticed the envelope on the windowsill.

His heart was up to his mouth when he lifted it up and turned it to and fro. It wasn't labeled. What kind of stupid joke was this? But finally, his curiosity won. Inside he found a simple, white sheet of paper - and a second, smaller envelope.

Casey stared at the words on the paper.

Do you think, I would forget these six months together with you?  Z.

Z for Zeke! Zeke wrote him a letter. He did remember their anniversary. Wow.

With shaking fingers, Casey quickly tore open the second envelope. Another sheet of paper.

Slowly he started to read - word by word - again and again - his eyes full of tears.

Like a bird without wings
That longs to be flying
Like a motherless child
Left lonely and crying
Like a song without words
Like a world without music
I wouldn't know what to do
I'd lost without you.

You are my guardian angel
My light and my guide
Your hand on my shoulder
And you by my side.
You make everything beautiful
You make me complete
Everything in my world
I lay at your feet.

You are the very best what has ever happened to me, Case!

I love you


Zeke
