A letter from Scout to Dill. Songfic, To Kill A Mockingbird, ScoutXDill.

Mr. Charles Baker Harris AKA Dill,

You took my hand, you showed me how
You promised me you'd be around
Uh huh, that's right

You, Dill, have not visited me for a few years. I'm getting really worried. You had helped me through life all last summer and had promised you'd be here this year. You also promised that you'd marry me when you got back.

I took your words and I believed
In everything you said to me
Yeah huh, that's right

I believed everything you said, and I knew, or thought I knew, that you'd never let me down. Why? Because we were best friends.

If someone said three years from now
You'd be long gone
I'd stand up and punch them out
Cause they're all wrong

I know better
Cause you said forever
And ever, who knew?

Even Atticus and Miss Maudie couldn't convince me otherwise, though they tried. Once, I even punched Cecil Jacobs because he said you weren't coming back.

Remember when we were such fools
And so convinced and just too cool
Oh no, no no

I wish I could touch you again
I wish I could still call you a friend
I'd give anything

I loved you, and I thought you loved me, but I guess I was wrong. We used to be the coolest kids in the neighborhood, tormenting Boo Radley, eating Miss Maudie's cake, complaining about Atticus. What happened to that? Where are you?

When someone said count your blessings now
For they're long gone
I guess I just didn't know how
I was all wrong

But they knew better
Still you said forever and ever
Who knew? Yeah yeah

I should have listened to Atticus and Miss Maudie. They knew better, and saw through your lies about forever and ever. What happened to them? What were you trying to do to me? Dill, what's going on? I don't understand.

I'll keep you locked in my head
Until we meet again
Until we, until we meet again
And I won't forget you my friend
What happened?

I will stay faithful and never forget you. I still have hope that you'll come and visit me. You'll be kept prisoner by my memories. I've made sure that you'll never forget me either.

If someone said three years from now
You'd be long gone
I'd stand up and punch them out
Cause they're all wrong

Three years ago, you were the center of my world. Now, I'm starting to think that maybe Atticus, Maudie, Jem, and Cecil were right. I'm hoping you'll prove me wrong.

And that last kiss I'll cherish
Until we meet again
And time makes it harder
I wish I could remember
I do remember when you kissed me a few summers ago. Though time makes it harder, I can't forget you. I'll cherish your kiss forever.

But I keep your memory
You visit me in my sleep
My darling, who knew?

I still dream about you. You will forever be in my memory. I hope you can say the same about me, Mr. Dill Harris.

My darling
My darling, who knew?
My darling I miss you
My darling, who knew?

Who knew?

Who knew it would end this way? I expect a letter from you in return. Please write back, but put my name on the address instead of Atticus's, like you did last time. My next letter will be about life in Maycomb. What's that? It's a teardrop. I'm crying over the memories that we could have added to our collection if you hadn't left. Don't forget to write back!

With love,

Miss Jean Louise Finch AKA Scout
