I can honestly say you've been on my mind
Since I woke up today, up today
I look at your photograph all the time
These memories come back to life
And I don't mind
Barbara was sitting on her bed staring at a picture of Dick. He was wearing a T-shirt and jeans just sitting on the couch of Wayne Manor asleep. He looks so innocent. He doesn't even know I have this picture, but it's my favorite.
I remember when we kissed
I still feel it on my lips
The time that you danced with me
With no music playing
I touched my lips rembering his lips on mine. His body pressed against mine. I rember how we got together.
Flashback
I was crying in the janitor closet. Senior Prom is supose to be one of the best days of your life. But there I sit in the janitors closet covered in punch, a total mess. Dick opened the door.
"Why is such a bueatiful girl crying in a closet when she should be a the prom?" He said bending down to sit on the floor with me.
"Dick look at me! I'm a mess! I look horrible and Jared just dumped me!" I cried into his sholder.
"You look bueatiful Babs," He lifted my chin so I was looking in his Big bule eyes. He was just 14 so some of the mistif in his eyes. "They're are a lot more boy in the world."
"Ya you're right!" I said wiping my tears. "They're are a lot more fish in the sea!"
"Out there, in here," Dick turned red.
I got up and so did he. "Oh!" I was surprised I knew he had a crush on me but I wasn't expecting this. Dick grabbed my hands.
"Dick what are we doing?"
"Dancing."
"Without any music?"
"You are my music," Dick grinned. He was so cheesey.
We went back to the prom. Punch and all.
End Flashback
But I remember those simple things
I remember 'til I cry
But the one thing I wish I'd forget
The memory I wanna forget
Is goodbye
All of the memories were flashing in my mind. Our first kiss, first date, and just jumbles of memories that we spent together. I started to cry, them I rembered the one memory I wanted to forget. Our goodbye.
Flashback
Dick and I were sitting on the long lawns of Wayne Manor just sitting there looking up at the cloud filled skies. Not speaking, we both knew what was coming.
"Babs listen tomorrow I'm leaving... I'm going to go to Jump City." he looked into my eyes looking for a reaction.
I stared into his big blue eye, "Have you told Dani or Bruce yet?" the only thing that I would let pour out of my mouth... no matter how much I wanted to yell at him.
"No," he looked at his feet. "I'll just leave a note for Dani; she probably already knows."
"You know you should really just tell them!" I looked at him. Then it dawned on me, "You don't plan on coming back, do you!" I finally screamed at him.
"No Babs I do," he begged me, trying to pull me in for a hug.
I stood up and stepped back. "No You DON'T CALL ME BABS!" I screamed at him. "ONLY MY FRIENDS CALL ME BABS!" I turned away from him. "You're breaking up with me, you'll find another redhead and will fall in love with her!" tears started to betray me.
"Babs please stop you're over reacting," he stood up, "We can still be together."
"Long distance relationships will kill you Dick!"
"Barbara can you just listen to me!" He tryed to hold my hand. Neither of us noticed the rain.
"Don't touch me!" I screamed.
He steps back, "Goodbye, Barbara," He left me there to cry in the rain.
End flashback
I cried myself to sleep.
I woke up this morning and played are song
And throwing my tears, I sang along
I picked up the phone and then put it down
'Cause I know I'm wasting my time
And I don't mind
I woke up around 6 in the morning. I had anouther dream about Dick. I turned on my ipod, The Call by REGINA SPEKTOR. Great like I need more reminders of Dick. I couldn't turn it off.I started to sing along to the song while tear were rolling down my face. I look at my cell phone. Maybe we can patch up our relationship, or atleast becaome friends again. I started to dial his number, but put the phone down. If he wanted to talk to me he would have called.
I remember when we kissed
I still feel it on my lips
The time that you danced
with me With no music playing
But I remember the simple things I
remember 'til I cry
But the one thing I wish
I'd forget The memory I wanna forget
My mind strayed to the prom.
Flashback
We walked into prom. Judy was clinging to Jared like her life depended on it. I saw her eyes bulge, at Dick. Even though he was a freshman he was a big catch. Rich, hamsome, athletic. We ignored them as we danced to The Call , our song. At the end of the song he leaned down and kissed me.
End Flashback
I started to cry as i rembered this.
Suddenly my cell phone's blowing up
With your ringtone
I hesitate but answer it anyway
You sound so alone
And I'm surprised to hear you say
My phone started to blast. I reached to anwser it when I relized the ring tone. It was Dicks. I hesitated to pick it up but did anyway. "Hello," I breathe into the phone.
"Babs?" I could hear his voice break.
"Dick what's wrong?"
"Kori she-" Oh course Kori. Kori Anders otherwise known as Starfire, his new girlfriend. "She dumped me."
I looked at the phone in shock "Why?"
"She said I was inlove with anouther girl."
My heart broke.
You remember when we kissed
You still feel it on your lips
The time that you danced with me
With no music playing
"Who?"
"Barbara you, I remember when we kissed. I still feel it on my lips. The time that I danced with you. With no music playing."
I smiled into the phone.
You remember the simple things
We talked 'til we cried
You said that your biggest regret
The one thing you wish I'd forget
Is saying goodbye, saying goodbye
Ooh, goodbye
We talked for hours I was late for class. I didn't care. We talked about everything since we first met. We went through every secound. As Batgirl and Robin, Babs the babysitter, every date, every kiss, every fight except for good bye. "Dick what about when you left?" tears a non-stop down my face.
"Babs I don't want you to froget anything except for that moment. Barbara turn around." I turned around to see a grown up Dick Grayson standing in my door frame tears rolling down from his perfect blue orbs into his gorgous glossy black hair. I ran into his arms. We never said Goodbye.
