Ok, I don't know why I got the urge to write this fic other than it just fit the song well. Hope you like it.
Disclaimer: I own nothing but the idea and "Safe & Sound" is by Taylor Swift (feat. The Civil Wars) I don't own that either. _
Helga was sitting on her bed holding her teddy bear and crying softly at the noise going on down stairs. When the door silently opened and in came Olga. She walked over to Helga and gather her up in a hug and started stroking her hair. "Shhhh, hush now I'm not going anywhere baby sister." "Olga can you stay here with me until I fall asleep?" "I will just close your eyes and I'll keep you safe." Listening to the noise down stairs of her parents fighting about Helga again. Did they not know how wonderful she was going to be or how much this hurt every time they did this?
I remember tears streaming down your face
When I said, "I'll never let you go"
When all those shadows almost killed your light
I remember you said, "Don't leave me here alone"
But all that's dead and gone and passed tonight
Just close your eyes
The sun is going down
You'll be alright
No one can hurt you now
Come morning light
You and I'll be safe and sound
Don't you dare look out your window darling
Everything's on fire
The war outside our door keeps raging on
Hold on to this lullaby
Even when the music's gone
Gone
Olga rocked little Helga trying to whisper encouragement to her hoping that it would get through to her regardless of what their parents said about her. I don't know what I can do to help her. I leave for college in two years. How will she make it for the rest of the time without me here. "I love you, baby sister no matter what." Unfortunately Helga had already fell asleep to know that there was someone who loved her. No matter Olga sang a soft lullaby to little Helga trying to convey her love.
Just close your eyes
The sun is going down
You'll be alright
No one can hurt you now
Come morning light
You and I'll be safe and sound
Oooh, Oooh, Oooh, Oooh
Oooh, Oooh, Oooh, Oooh
La La (La La)
La La (La La)
Oooh, Oooh, Oooh, Oooh
Oooh, Oooh, Oooh, Oooh
La La (La La)
Turning to the window and look out to an unknown future for her baby sister. We will be safe and sound while I'm still home and no one will hurt you while I'm here, I hope.
Just close your eyes
You'll be alright
Come morning light,
You and I'll be safe and sound...
Oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh oh oh. [x7]
Even though her big sister did this almost every night that their parents fought Helga wouldn't remember any of it and would only think this as a dream. Olga would always leave her after the morning light tuck in bed, safe and sound.
Oh wow. I originally wanted this is Helga's point of view but Olga just shined through. My imagination took over so what can I say. I hope y'all like it and have an adventure of your own.
