This is not my first fanfic, but it is my first on this site. I know its probably not perfect so I appreciate constructive criticism. This, however, is my first ever songfic so be nice…please? XD

This is a oneshot. When Rose broke up with Jake, this could easily have been the perfect song to describe what they were going through at the time.

Song: "Already Gone"

Artist: Kelly Clarkson

I do not own "Already Gone" or any other song by Kelly Clarkson or Sony Music. I also don't own American Dragon or Disney. I'm just a fan with an outlet for her muse.

POV: Rose

Remember all the things we wanted

All we ever wanted was a normal life...just your average teenage romance.

Apparently that was too much to ask.


Now all our memories they're haunted

All the good times we shared…all the memories. I would never forget it.


We were always meant to say goodbye

I had to do it. I had no choice. It was too dangerous to keep going like this.


Even with our fists held high
It never would've worked out right

No matter how much we fought to be together, it seemed as though destiny fought harder to keep us apart.


We were never meant for do or die

I guess that's what happens when a slayer falls for a dragon…


I didn't want us to burn out
I didn't come here to hurt you, now I can't stop

When I saw the pain in your eyes, my heart wanted to die.


I want you to know that it doesn't matter
Where we take this road someone's gotta go

Please try to understand it has to be this way.


And I want you to know you couldn't have loved me better
But I want you to move on so I'm already gone

I will always love you, Jake. I would rather die then see you hurt on my behalf.

Looking at you makes it harder
But I know that you'll find another
That doesn't always make you want to cry

I can only hope that maybe you will move on and fall for someone who won't conflict with you.

Regardless how much it would kill me inside.

Started with a perfect kiss then we could feel the poison set in

I knew at our first kiss what I was getting myself into, yet I didn't listen to myself.

Perfect couldn't keep this love alive…

You were the perfect guy. I had hoped our relationship would work out. Hope can only take one so far…

You know that I love you so, I love you enough to let you go

I know I need to let go. I need to move on, but my heart won't let me.

I want you to know that it doesn't matter
Where we take this road someone's gotta go
And I want you to know you couldn't have loved me better
But I want you to move on so I'm already gone

If I stayed any longer, my resolve would have broken. I turned around, wiping away my tears, and walked away.

My heart screamed for me to turn back with each step I took.

I'm already gone, already gone
You can't make it feel right when you know that it's wrong
I'm already gone, already gone
There's no moving on so I'm already gone

Our love was like the Lion and the Lamb. We knew it was wrong from the beginning.

It could only end in disaster.

Remember all the things we wanted
Now all our memories they're haunted
We were always meant to say goodbye

Just promise you will never forget me…us…

I want you to know that it doesn't matter
Where we take this road someone's gotta go
And I want you to know you couldn't have loved me better
But I want you to move on so I'm already gone
