Song by Marketa Irglova, on the Once movie soundtrack

I do not own Teen Titans

The song is in bold, the plain story in plain font, and flashbacks in italics.

The Hill

Walking up the Hill tonight,

I walked up the muddy hill. The rain poured down on my, leaving me wet and cold. But I had to be with him tonight.

When you have closed your eyes.

He'll never open them again.

I wish I didn't have to make all those mistakes and be wise.

It was stupid of me to think that he would be okay fighting by himself. I thought he was strong enough.

Please try to be patient, I know that I'm still learning.

I placed my hand on his slow, beating heart. I tried healing him, but I wasn't very good at healing. I was still learning. "Please, be patient…don't go…don't leave yet, let me try harder!"

I'm sorry that you had to see the strength inside me burning.

He saw the pain on my face. I started crying, I couldn't seem to heal him. My strength was leaving with him, I couldn't take it.

Where are you, my angel, now? Don't you see my crying?

My tears were coming down like the rain as the flashbacks continued to haunt my mind.

And I know that you can't do it all, but you can say I'm not trying.

I know angels can't do everything, like bring back the dead. But I can. I'm not trying though. He would be in the same state as he was when he died, cut, bruised, in pain. Besides, I've had my share with black magic. I swore to myself I would never touch that book again.

I'm on my knees in front of him, but he doesn't seem to see me.

I was bent down, looking over him. His heart stopped, but his big green eyes didn't close. They were still looking at me.

But all his troubles on his mind, he's looking right through me.

Now he doesn't have to worry about anything anymore. He's not looking at me. He can't even see.

And I'm letting myself down beside this fire in you.

My hopes were gone, and I felt they would never come back. I would never hear his corny jokes, his laugh, that childish fire that burned in him forever. I blew it out. It's my fault…

And I wish that you could see, they have my troubles too.

The rest of the Titans were thinking about him, mourning over his terrible loss. But I have to say, they're worrying about me too.

Looking at you sleeping, I'm with the man I know.

I closed his eyelids and held his hand, watching his beautiful face sleep.

I'm sitting here weeping, while the hours pass so slow.

I cried and cried, for what seemed like forever. Time seemed to stand still.

And I know that in the morning, I'll have to let you go.

Somebody was going to separate us when the sun finally came out. They were going to take me away from him.

And you'll be just a man, once I used to know.

You'll still be the same old you inside my head. You'll be very different in real life, eaten away by the bugs. But I will love you as you always were, not as you are now.

For these past few days, someone I don't recognize.

When I reach the top of the hill, you'll will have changed so much that I won't tell its you.

This isn't all my fault, when will you realize?

I'm sorry. It was him who killed you, not me. We both knew that I was to weak to save you, I hope you understand…

Looking at you leaving, I'm looking for a sign.

I watched as they took you away into an ambulance, looking hard to see if they could save you, if there was at least a little bit left of you that could live…

I finally reached the top of the hill, and sat next to Beast Boy's grave. The rain continued to come down on us, but I was to numb now to feel it.

I thought I heard him laughing…but maybe it was just the wind.

The Hill is such a beautiful song, I HIGHLY recommend you listen to it. Well, I'm done here, so review!

Until next time,

Moonshowers
