She used to sing all the time. Stevie Wonder, Michael Buble, Faith Hill. Songs filled with love and longing, hope and inspiration. Songs that made Donna smile, that made the grueling days on the campaign trail feel just a little bit lighter.

Donna hasn't heard her sing since the funeral, since she sang that heartbreaking rendition of Amazing Grace. She wonders if she sings in private now, or if she even sings at all anymore. If Donna had to guess, she'd say that all the music in Annabeth's heart died that day with Leo.

Until one day, she overhears the soft, yet emotional strains of Someone to Watch Over Me drifting through the halls of the White House. And she knows that maybe, just maybe, Annabeth's heart is finally healing.

~End~
