Benjamin 2
Sorry, D2K, but the name is technically Johanna2.
Mantineus-Thanks goes out to Devil2Kyuubi for allowing me to write this since she did the first "Johanna" song. I'm telling you before hand that I cut Mrs. Barker's part because nothing I could really think of fit her tempo and beat for Gwen. Sorry.
I'll admit to changing it slightly(taking liberties with it) to fit with everything. Sorry if you are offended.
Disclaimer-I own nothing.
Key
La-Normal sentences
La-singing, think of it as a musical in which no one notices anyone singing(such as the people in the chair before he slit their throats).
(La)-Appears when one is singing and another comes in at the same time and I didn't want to break up the natural flow at that time.
Sweeney-Ben
Anthony-Kevin
------ -----
Kevin slowly walked beneath Ben's window, the night covering him. They have not seen each other for many years.
I feel you, Benjamin, I feel you
Do they think that walls can hide you?
Even now I'm at your window,
I am in the dark beside you
Buried sweetly in your light-brown hair,
Benjamin
By this point Ben walks over to his bedroom window and looks out, up at the sky, unaware that Kevin is just below looking up at him.
And are you beautiful and pale,
With dark colored hair, like her?
------ ------
He looks at the old picture of Kevin, him and Julie on a rollercoaster with slight disdain for the girl.
I want you beautiful and pale,
The way I've dreamed you were,
Kevin
(Benjamin)
Kevin added as he longingly looked up at the boy.
And if you're beautiful,
What then with dark colored
Hair like wings
I think we shall not meet again
My little dove, my sweet
Kevin
------ ------
Just then Kevin had an idea.
I'll steal you, Benjamin
Good-bye, Kevin
You're gone, and yet
You're mine
I'm fine, Kevin,
I'm fine
(Benjamin)
Ben gazed up at the moon longingly, knowing that Kevin was under the same orb, but so far away.
And if I never hear your
Voice, my turtledove,
My dear
I still have reason to rejoice
The way ahead is clear
Kevin
------ ------
Kevin hoped that Ben would look down at the ground. Hoped that he would notice him. And wished that he could be close to his Ben.
I feel you, Benjamin
Ben remembered that horrible day when Kevin left him alone, without any explanation. His gaze hardened a little.
And in the darkness
When I'm blind with
What I can't forget
His gaze softening slightly. He was no longer mad at Kevin. But the memory still hurt.
It's always morning in my
Mind, my little lamb,
My pet,
Kevin
------ ------
He understood Kevin better than anybody. He loved Kevin, even after he ditched him. All he hoped now was for the mutant to be happy.
You stay, Kevin,
(Benjamin)
The way I've dreamed you are
Ben noticed something flying across the sky and smiled.
Oh look, Kevin, a star!
Kevin only saw Ben.
Buried sweetly in your
Light-brown hair
(A shooting star!)
Ben sighed.
And though I'll think
Of you, I guess until the
Day I die
I think I miss you less and
Less as every day goes by
Kevin
(Benjamin)
And you'd be beautiful and pale
And look too much, like her
Once again Ben turns and looks at the photo. Knowing his luck, if Kevin did ever come back he would look like Julie. But he knows he's being ridiculous. Instead he dwells on what might have been.
If only angels could prevail
We'd be the way we were, Kevin
I feel you, Benjamin
------ ------
The moon sets, the sun begins to rise. And Ben notices.
Wake up, Kevin!
Another bright red day!
We learn, Kevin, to say
Good-bye
Ben smiled softly, still a little reluctant to give up on the mutant. But deep down he knew he had to.
But Kevin was not as willing to give up.
I'll steal you
------ -----END
Mantineus-I hope you liked this. Please R&R! And read Devil2Kyuubi's fic, "Benjamin", too. You'll like it!
No sequel pending! But if no one minds, I'll try and write more like this if you ask me. I enjoy song fics and I feel I should work on my technique.
