Hello! I am going to try to do the three requests. (Not in one story) hehe! But I am going to attempt it, so bear with me they might suck bad. This one is 'Everything You Want' by Vertical Horizon. It warms my heart to say, that I have listened to all the requested songs and they all are beautiful! This particular song was requested by Nos482. Thank you! This is dedicated to you, and I hope you like it! Enjoy.
Disclaimer- I don't own Everything you want, or Vertical Horizon.
Here Be Da Story.
Raven could hear the speaking of her friends from her room in the apartment that they all shared. There was nothing that didn't cloud her mind. But one thing seemed dominant. And that would be Gar Logan. Of course, he didn't know that he was the very object of her thoughts, because, she was also the very object of his. Raven just let herself fall back on her bed. She closed her eyes and thought of a song.
Somewhere there's speaking
It's already coming in
Oh and it's rising at the back of your mind
You never could get it
Unless you were fed it
Now you're here and you don't know why
She thought of how when her father had abused her, when she finally decided, well more like was forced, to tell Gar, he helped her and he was there for her. She remembered all the fun times in their old high school. 'Gar used to just sit and listen to me cry for hours. Over anything and everything. But when he tried to talk to me, I wasn't so loyal to him all the time. One day he is just going to tell me that he doesn't want to listen anymore.' Raven thought sorrowfully.
But under skinned knees and the skid marks
Past the places where you used to learn
You howl and listen
Listen and wait for the
Echoes of angels who won't return
'He is so perfect, he is the opposite of me, and that's just what I need, I wish I could always be happy like him. Not that I cant, I just chose not to. Whenever something is wrong, he says the right things at the right times and I pretend not to care. What kind of a friend am I?' Raven pondered these things in her head. She hated to think like this, but it was all true.
Chorus
He's everything you want
He's everything you need
He's everything inside of you
That you wish you could be
He says all the right things
At exactly the right time
But he means nothing to you
And you don't know why
Her heart was like a puzzle and he was the missing piece. The last part of the never ending jigsaw puzzle. If someone showed Raven how she was, but pushing her away the way she did, she might understand things a little better. But she could also be very caring just like Gar. But deep inside, whenever Raven talked to Gar, she just wished he would say the three most simplest but hardest words in the world to say.
You're waiting for someone
To put you together
You're waiting for someone to push you away
There's always another wound to discover
There's always something more you wish he'd say
Chorus
Raven just sat on her bed not doing anything. For the longest time she had wanted to admit her feelings to him, but them Terra came around. As far as she knew he was still with her. The only thing she wanted in the world was for Garfield to love her the way she loved him. She would be fine and dandy, but that wouldn't happen because of her .She would just keep waiting, and wishing for it to be a reality.
But you'll just sit tight
And watch it unwind
It's only what you're asking for
And you'll be just fine
With all of your time
It's only what you're waiting for
She left her room and went to the tiny living room. Three of her friends were in a circle around something, but none of them were Gar. She didn't look past them. She didn't notice that Gar was who the were circling. When Raven didn't see Gar she left and went back to hide in her room. 'Where did he go? Is he coming back?' Raven was scared that maybe he had left, even though he had no reason to at all.
Out of the island
Into the highway
Past the places where you might have turned
You never did notice
But you still hide away
The anger of angels who won't return
She thought that maybe she had just miss Gar, so she went back out to the living room and searched. She walked over to her three friends who were now sitting, revealing her forth, crying, friend. "Gar, what happened? Are you ok?" She asked worriedly. She gently placed a hand on his shoulder as a symbol of comfort.
He just wiped his tears away with his eyes. Kori stood, "Richard, I need some help with . . . laundry, will you come with me? And friend, Victor, will you also assist me?" The both nodded and stood. The three-some left the room and left Gar and Raven to themselves. 'He is everything I want, everything I need.' He was always saying just the right things when she needed it, and it was her turn to be there for him. She sometimes thought that she didn't care about him, but really, she did. Deeply, very deeply.
"Gar, don't be sad. Whatever happened, you have us. You have me. I will always be here for you." She smiled slightly and Gar looked up at her shining face, or so it seemed. One lone tear made its way down his cheek. Raven pulled her sleeve over her hand and wiped away the single tear.
Chorus
I am everything you want
I am everything you need
I am everything inside of you
That you wish you could be
I say all the right things
At exactly the right time
But I mean nothing to you and I don't know why
And I don't know why
Why
I don't know
"Thank you, Raven. That is what I needed. My real friends. People who REALLY care about me," he sniffled, "A friend like you, Rae." He quickly embraced her to hide the fresh tears streaming down his face. She was shocked at first, but she put her arms around his back and gently moved them up and down his spine. 'You're welcome Garfield Logan. You're welcome.'
Ok incase you didn't know, its kind of like my last fic, the sadness was caused by a break up with a certain blonde. (no offence to blondes because HEY WOULDN'T YOU KNOW! I am blonde! So ya!) Rock On!
