Any Other Boy
A/n: Just a short little one shot I thought up. Based on something I was gonna write before. Please review. May be a bit sucky because I'm suffering through writer's block. Hope you like it though. I wrote the song myself. Song copyright me, characters Studio B.
Theresa clasped her book bag to her shoulder and hurried towards the school. Turning around the corner of the school yard she rushed into the high school, looking about cautiously as she entered. It was Valentine's Day, and later on the gang was meeting at the movies. She had just enough time to slip the note in Jay's locker before he arrived. She reread it and couldn't believe she was giving him something as sappy as this. She usually wasn't that type of person, but ever since he had asked her out she had been feeling really freaked out about keeping their relationship steady. This note was simply to tell him how much she appreciated him, something she didn't want to blurt out in front of the others.
Her note was written in the form of a song, and she wouldn't sing it in front of anyone but him, no matter how good her singing voice was. She could imagine the other's reactions already: Archie and Neil would snicker, Atlanta would pretend to be uninterested, Herry would wrinkle his nose in disgust, and Odie would begin to type intently on his computer to avoid saying a comment he would regret. And Jay would be as red as a ripe tomato. And she… would die of embarrassment. No, this was the safer way.
She rounded the bend and scurried towards Jay's locker. She slipped the note between the cracks of the door, and then dashed away towards her first class.
About half an hour later, Jay opened his locker to find a hand written note from Theresa. Looking around to make sure nobody could read over his shoulder, his chocolate brown eyes swept over the neat writing:
Yeah, yeah, yeah, mmm
Anybody else I know … would just cringe
Every other boy I'd like would just run away
When you have super hero powers
Normal is like a soap opera on TV… surreal
So I just wanna say…
Thanks for being yourself, Thanks for always believing in me
Thanks for being my best friend… Thanks for your love
Thanks for giving me such joy
Thanks for being the boy who understands
When you're a girl and fighting a power you just don't get
It's hard to find someone who comprehends
When you say you've got abilities that would scare normalities
Usually guys look the other way
So this is what I wanna say!
Thanks for being yourself, Thanks for always believing in me
Thanks for being my best friend… Thanks for your love
Thanks for giving me such joy
Thanks for being the boy who understands
Thanks for being yourself, Thanks for always believing in me
Thanks for being my best friend… Thanks for your love
Thanks for giving me such joy
Thanks for being the boy who understands
Yeah understands!
Because when you're saving the world it's hard
To not let your life break into shards
That you have to pick up and glue
I don't have to worry now that I have you…
Thanks for being yourself, thanks for believing in me
Thanks for being my best friend… until the very end!
Yeah…
Thanks for being yourself, Thanks for always believing in me
Thanks for being my best friend… Thanks for your love
Thanks for giving me such joy
Thanks for being the boy who understands
Understands, understands, understands…yeah
Understands
Dear Jay, Meet me at the dorm at 6pm, before the movie. I want to sing this song for you. Luv, Theresa
