You Belong With Me
Disclaimer: I don't own "You Belong With Me" or Jesus, Veronica, or Mary Magdalene.
Author's Note: I have toyed with this idea for awhile. I hope you like it even if you're not Catholic. Modern Day!AU
Veronica's P.O.V.
You're on the phone with your girlfriend, She's upset
She's going off about something that you said
She doesn't get your humour like I do
Yeah. You were joking around with the mustard seeds your Mum gave us to plant in her yard. You started juggling the bags and saying, "I'm a fluffy panda bear!"
I'm in the room, its a typical Tuesday night
I'm listening to the kind of music she doesn't like
And she'll never know your story like I do
And she doesn't know what songs you and I both like. She doesn't like 30 Seconds to Mars' song, "The Kill". She doesn't know that you never knew your birth father and that Joseph is your stepfather.
But she wears short skirts, I wear t-shirts
She's cheer captain and I'm on the bleachers
Dreaming bout the day when you wake up and find
That what you're looking for has been here the whole time
You know she's just into you for her popularity. Not your smile, kindness, happiness, humour, and selflessness.
If you could see that I'm the one who understands you
Been here all along so why can't you see?
You belong with me
You belong with me
Walk in the streets with you in your worn out jeans
I can't help thinking this is how it ought to be
Laughing on the park bench thinking to myself
Hey isn't this easy?
Yea, we were talking about Mr. Isaac and his impossible pop quizzes. Then we were talking about Nicki Minaj and how she is starting to dress like Lady Gaga but we still like their music.
And you've got a smile that could light up this whole town
I haven't seen it in awhile, since she brought you down
You say you're fine I know you better than that
Hey, Whatcha doing with a girl like that?
You were never one to lie, but you always did when I asked you why you looked sad or depressed after a date with Magdalene. You think you should be with her because Joseph approves. Mary likes me better then Magdalene. But she's so sluttish. She wears short skirts, tight and low-cut shirts, with kitten heels. I don't. She flirts with everyone, even girls!
She wears high heels, I wear sneakers
She's cheer captain and I'm on the bleachers
Dreaming bout the day when you wake up and find
That what you're looking for has been here the whole time
If you could see that I'm the one who understands you
Been here all along so why can't you see?
You belong with me
Standing by, waiting at your back door
All this time how could you not know that?
You belong with me
You belong with me
Oh I remember you driving to my house in the middle of the night
I'm the one who makes you laugh when you know you're about to cry
I know your favourite songs and you tell me about your dreams
I think I know where you belong. I think I know it's with me
You went to my home at 2:00 in the morning. You said you couldn't deal with it any more and you were thinking of leaving this town. I made you laugh and forget about your plan.
Can't you see that I'm the one who understands you?
Been here all along so why can't you see?
You belong with me
Standing by here waiting at your back door
All this time how could you not know that
You belong with me
You belong with me
But for now, you'll be with Mary Magdalene and I'll be mustering up the courage to tell you,
"Have you ever thought just maybe
You belong with me?"
You belong with me.
