By Kit Song Mr. Midnight sung by Garth Brooks. Mr. Midnight and some lines used in story are also from Garth Brooks. Billy sat in the radio room, looking at all the button lights around him. He only had a dim light on since his eyes were hurting from an unbearable headache. The rain outside, hitting the room was helping to ease the pain since it was a nice distraction and he didn't have any calls to help out at the moment. So far it had been an almost unbearably slow night, leaving with him nothing to do when he wasn't switching the songs. Rain on the roof and time on my hands It sure seemed quiet out there in radio land They call me at the all-night station Make their special dedications And I do my best to play their request When it's a desperate situation This was a desperate situation Billy heard a small beeping to his right and he looked at the phone switchboard to see the "Line 1" light blinking to indicate he had a call. He picked up the phone. "Slick 101.3, Mr. Midnight speaking, can I get your name please?" He said, closing his eyes as the headache built up again from him talking. "Yes, my name is Rienna and I have a special song I'd like you to play for me," replied a voice on the other line that made Billy's blood freeze in his veins as everything around him stopped. I'm Mr. Midnight alone and blue The brokenhearted call me up When they don't know what else to do Every song is a reminder of the love that they once knew I'm Mr. Midnight can I play a song for you "Alright, caller Rienna, can you please hold on a moment?" "Sure." Billy put the person on hold and took a sip from the water that waited by his left hand. "Rienna," he whispered, his chest tightening at the memory of her soft blonde hair and gorgeous green eyes that haunted his every dream since the day she left him. There hadn't been one night that he could sleep without memories of her coming to him in his dreams. When the song that had been playing, ended, he brought her off hold. "Alright, Rienna, what can I do for you tonight?" He asked, keeping voice as calm and caring as he did for other callers. "caller on the line could you please hold on?" I recognized her voice the minute I picked up the phone Should I tell her that it's me or leave it at a memory Haven't been myself since the day she left And I'm never gonna be I'm forever gonna be I'm Mr. Midnight alone and blue The brokenhearted call me up When they don't know what else to do Every song is a reminder of the love that they once knew I'm Mr. Midnight can I play a song for you "Mr. Midnight, I've been listening to this radio station for the longest time and tonight, almost every single song you've played for people listening has brought back so many memories for me." "Memories of someone you once cared for?" "Someone I once loved. You see, I haven't been able to get him off my mind for what seems like an eternity. I'm beginning to realized what a horrible mistake I made in leaving Billy, but I know it's too late." "Well Rienna, why don't you tell me what happened between you two?" He asked. It's not like I don't know, he thought to himself, but the listeners don't. "There was huge misunderstanding between us. We hadn't seen each other that much when we were together, but when we were, it wasn't for very long. I thought he was cheating on me, but he wasn't. He had only been planning a Valentine's Day surprise for me." "I'm sorry that happened miss. What makes you think it's too late?" "I can't find him anywhere at all... Besides, with what all I said to him, there's no way that kind heart would ever take me back. Listen I have to go, could you tell him that I love him and I wish things could be the same as they used to be?" "I'll be sure to pass the message along for you Rienna. What song could I play for you two?" As soon as his words passed through his lips, he heard a voice he never knew in the background say, "Honey, who are you talking to?" Billy close his eyes tightly, hanging his head as he felt a wave of depression wash over him, surrounding him with its depths. The voice was her new guy and he knew he would never have her again. I have to let go right now, he thought to himself. "Rienna, your song miss?" I'm Mr. Midnight alone and blue The brokenhearted call me up When they don't know what else to do Every song is a reminder of the love that they once knew I'm Mr. Midnight can I play a song for you Billy sat there, listening to the song she had chosen, as it played in the speakers. He had hung up with her a few moments ago, and his heart was definitely torn in two as he thought about their times together and all the memories they once shared.
