Okay, my first song fic, so please review with some advice. I'm gonna do all the songs on Taylor Swifts album Fearless in order, so this one's first and I thought I'd start with my favourite pairing – Barthaniel. There will be other pairings later.

The lyrics are Taylor Swift's and the characters are Jonathon Stroud's.

There's something' 'bout the way
The street looks when it's just rained
There's a glow on the pavement
You walk me to the car
And you know I wanna ask you to dance right there
In the middle of the parking lot, yeah.

This is stupid. You, me and a parking lot. What's so great about that? Why do I want to take you in my arms and swing you around? Why? I'm just walking with you to the car, because you're too important to go by yourself. Just like very other evening. What's so special about today?

We're driving down the road
I wonder if you know
I'm trying so hard not to get caught up now
You think that you're cool
Run your hands through your hair
Absent mindedly making me want you

Do you seriously think that's cool? That thing you do with your hair? It's not. It just makes it stick up at a funny angle. So why is it so cute?

'Cause I don't know how it gets better than this
You grab my hand and drag me head first, fearless
And I don't know why, but with you I'd dance
In the middle of a busy street, fearless

It's like you're dragging me into this…whatever it is. Because it isn't love. It's just a strange attraction that I have to you. There is a very big difference.

So baby, drive slow, 'till we run out of road
In this one horse town, I wanna stay right here
In this passenger seat, you put your eyes on me
In this moment, now capture it, remember it

You looked at me. Wow. Amazing. Just like you have thousands of times. Why does it make my essence quiver? It's a nice feeling. But it isn't love.

'Cause I don't know how it gets better than this
You grab my hand and drag me head first, fearless
And I don't know why, but with you I'd dance
In the middle of a busy street, fearless

Okay. So I'm in love with the idiot. There. Happy now? And I'm talking to a song. What else is new?

Well, you stood there with me in the doorway
My hands shake, I'm not usually this way
But you pull me in and I'm a little more brave
It's the first kiss, it's flawless, really something
It's fearless

It's strange. I've fought and won countless battles…but I'm usually terrified of this kind of thing. Not with you. Not anymore at least. You know, five thousand years and that was actually my first kiss. I never thought about it before, but now I do…that's sort of depressing.


'Cause I don't know how it gets better than this
You grab my hand and drag me head first, fearless
And I don't know why, but with you I'd dance
In the middle of a busy street, fearless

You hold my hand, and I know that I'd follow you to the ends of the earth. Which is really pathetic. I sound like some stupid love-struck idiot. Maybe I am a stupid love-struck idiot…See that! See what you've done to me? You've got me actually admitting stuff like that. It's gonna be French restaurants and kisses by moonlight before long if I'm not careful.

'Cause I don't know how it gets better than this
You grab my hand and drag me head first, fearless
And I don't know why, but with you I'd dance
In the middle of a busy street, fearless

I don't get all the songs and poems. Love isn't wonderful, or glorious. It's just plain annoying. It's nice though, whilst it lasts.
