Well. Surprisingly enough, my first Avatar fic isn't Zutara. It's Longshot/ Smellerbee. Longerbee? I dunno. I just thought in the last few episodes, they were lookin' pretty canon. : But this is also my first ever songfic type deal. Exciting? I heard this song and thought of them. It's kind of long too, so sorry. Song lyrics are italicized of course. Bon appetite.
We were drawn from the weeds
We were brave like soldiers
Falling down under the pale moonlight
You were holding to me
Like a someone broken
And I couldn't tell you but I'm telling you now
I first met you when I joined Jet's gang. I thought you were a boy at first, but after explanations from Jet, you suddenly became a girl. A pretty girl. Either way though, you were beautiful. The more we fought with Jet, the more this feeling I felt grew. You were brave like the soldiers we fought, and I wanted to protect from them. That wasn't the main reason why I thought you to be brave though. Sometimes at night, you would come to me and just have me hold you. Nothing more, and nothing less. You were broken, but I
Thought you were brave for coming to someone and asking them for help and not to just give up.
Just let me hold you while you're falling apart
Just let me hold you and we'll both fall down
Fall on me
Tell me everything you want me to be
Forever with you
Forever in me
Ever the same
That was my favorite time. Holding you so close just felt so special to me. I felt needed, and like your pillar of strength. Somehow though, I didn't. Because I myself was weak. I always wondered why you didn't go to Jet. He was strong. Sometimes during our time, you would whisper. You would whisper things like "You're so brave, Longshot," and "What can't I be strong like you?" I couldn't say anything at these moments. Sometimes I wish I could, sometimes not. But I know that I always listened.
We would stand in the wind
We were free like water
Flowing down
Under the warmth of the sun
Now it's cold and we're scared
And we've both been shaken
Look at us
Man, this doesn't need to be the end
The days I liked most were the days when the wind blew hard. It was so peaceful and relaxing at those moments. It was almost like we were all flying. Or like how water flows so peacefully in the riverbeds. Either way, it was nice. To enjoy that with you. It was winter that we all didn't like. We were scared food would be scarce, or someone would freeze. Jet always assured us that would be fine. Once, it was so cold, you slept with me. We both were so scared of getting too cold, so we held onto each other real tight. Neither of us wanted that to be our last moment together.
Just let me hold you while you're falling apart
Just let me hold you so we both fall down
Fall on me
Tell me everything you want me to be
Forever with you
Forever in me
Ever the same
Whenever I hold you, I feel important. Like I was the only person you could go to for this reassurance. We both needed each other and I'm glad we were able to have those times together. Whenever you cried though, real hard, it wasn't nice. I never did like to see you cry. It got in the way of your pretty eyes. It was too upsetting. When you cried, I would hold you tighter and that seemed to help because you would stop crying after a couple of seconds. I guess it was my own way of talking.
Call on me
I'll be there for you
And you'll be there for me
Forever it's you
Forever in me
Ever the same
I'll always be there for you. I probably always will too. Least I hope so. We both help each other become stronger when we had those moments. If I needed your help, you were there. And I know if you ever needed my help, I would always be there. No matter what it took.
You may need me there
To carry all your weight
But you're no burden I assure
You tide me over
With a warmth I'll not forget
But I can only give you love
You sometimes worried that when you came for my help, that it would bother me. That maybe you shouldn't come to me anymore, and maybe go to someone else. I would always tell you to always come to me though. You're broken self rejuvenates me. It helps me feel important and that I'm needed by someone. What I hold you, I feel a certain warmth inside that came from nothing else. It was a strange feeling, but I liked it. You were the only one that gave it to me. I think it was called love.
Fall on me
Tell me everything you want me to be
Forever with you
Forever in me
Ever the same
Call on me
I'll be there for you
And you'll be there for me
Forever it's you
Forever in me
Forever the same
Love? What am I thinking? You're my friend, the one you come to for help. The love would surely ruin it… Right? You tell me to just be myself. You come to me for help. I cannot see how I could ruin it by telling you. But what if it didn't? What if it strengthened the relationship I so dearly held? What if… You felt the same? Maybe that's why you came to me, and no one else. Maybe because you knew that I wouldn't turn you down and you knew I would be there for you. Maybe you knew I would listen to your whimpers without judging you. Maybe you just wanted an excuse to be with me and to have me hold you. Maybe I should let you know in my own way. So you would know I cared and that I meant it. Because I do.
Forever with you
Forever in me
Ever the same
(Ever the same, ah yeah)
YAY. That officially…Was okay? I guess. That's for you to review and tell me so I can get better. I really do appreciate all reviews. But let's be nice when you do review. My heart is easily cracked. : D That was hard though. I mean, matching the lyrics to what you're writing about. I applaud anyone who has written a songfic. ACTUALLY. I applaud everyone who has written any type of fic. It's always difficult. I'm getting off topic though. See you later (maybe).
