Lyrics:
So you say you've written letters
And you've mailed them to yourself
And through the politics of compromise
You've left them lying upon your shelf
At the risk of seeming crazy
I've set off to find your cure
With apologies for knowing
It's a difficult time of year
And the shadows you leave behind you
Are like the rain that's crashing down
When there's no one left around
I'll be the rain that's crashing
Rain that's crashing down
So you say we're going nowhere
With the fear of wasting youth
Through the different times and with different eyes
I see it every change in you
And now we've reached the point of knowing
That in love we're never sure
Still I'm holding on tight to memories
And there you go walking out the door
And the shadows you leave behind you
Are like the rain that's falling down
And your halo was left in town
And still the rain comes crashing down
And the sadness you leave behind you
Like shadows across the ground
When there's no one left around
I'll be the rain that's crashing
Rain that's crashing down
(repeat)
Rain comes crashing down (x7)
The rain (x3)

Interlude: Rain comes crashing, rain comes crashing
The next week seemed like a happy ending to Dick. One of those moments when everything things to come together. He had a boyfriend, who was also his best friend and the guy he'd always liked. The missions were easy. The sun didn't even appeared. Everything seemed… perfect.
Of course, nobody knew about it. Except for Megan. But she had sworn that she wouldn't tell anyone. Megan loved to gossip, but she always kept her promises.
The night when the couple ad stayed up late, they kissed for a long while. They talked until 4 pm, when they decided to go to bed.
"This is kinda awkward" thought Dick. "I wanna ask him to come with me, but… we just started dating."
Dating. they hadn't said it, but they were… weren't they?
"What about me going to your room. We've had some sleepovers, and now that we're dating, we're not gonna stop, are we?" proposed Wally "In a non-sexual way, of course."
"I was just about to ask" Dick smiled.
They were going to take the next day off, so they did what they always did at sleepovers. Stayed in the bed in their t-shirts and boxers. Talk. They avoided the pillow fight. It was already kind of weird the fact that they were a little… naked.
The next days the routine was the same. Dick woke up early, made Wally coffee. The redhead got up just a little later, and they made out until around 8, when the others started to show up.
Luckily, they were the sons of the smartest detectives in the world. Their minds were trained to think about to things at once. So in the missions they weren't distracted.
Well, that isn't totally true. Kid Flash was always looking after Robin. But that didn't change things a lot, because the latter wouldn't let his boyfriend get too entertained and not focus in the mission.
Megan was surprised by two things.
The first is how quickly things between Dick and Wally had gotten serious. They already had nicknames! Wally wouldn't admit it, but Dick had told her. She didn't know why he was blushing. She thought that "Little bird" was cute. And, although whenever one of them said something that she would qualify as "cute", the other would answer "Ugh, cheesy", they were always laughing together, and joking together, and, although neither of them would confess it, cuddling together.
But one day she realized why things were so serious so fast.
Wally and Dick had been best friends for a long while. They had been flirting with each other (without the other noticing, god, they could be dumb sometimes!) for some time too. They had already gone through the first phase of relationships.
The other thing that surprised her was that nobody else realized that the guys were together. It was so obvious!
But the answer to that was easy too. They had always behaved funny. Like they were more than best friends. And that was mainly because they had crushes for each other.
One day, Kaldur sent Megan and Artemis on a mission. Conner was at the Justice League Watchtower. Talking to Superman.
That meant for Dick and Wally that they had the whole place for them. And Kaldur, of course, but Kaldur just locked the door of his room, said he'd eat there and he didn't want to be disturbed.
"Dinner and a movie?" asked Kid Flash as soon as Aqualad left the room.
"It's a date." was the answer.
"Pizza?"
"Cheesy." They both laughed at the joke.
They ended eating the pizza from the box at Wally's room. they fell asleep at 3 in the morning. Wally woke up at six, he had forgotten to take the alarm. He took his boyfriend, still asleep, to his bedroom. Someone could find them in the morning, and two guys in their boxer cuddling in the bed wouldn't be easy to explain.
"Wow, that Robin kid really likes Kid Flash, doesn't he? I mean, for being the adoptive child of the world's greatest detective, he should be better at hiding things." thought Artemis "Anyway, it's kinda sad. It's obvious that Wally likes that guy, but no in the way the other does. Nope. Wally is straight, that's for sure. And hot. And, soon, mine."
Conner was too worried to think about the little flirt between his friends. He still couldn't forgive himself for what he had done. Wally could have been killed. And he was having a great time with his girlfriend. That couldn't happen anymore.
And he realized that he couldn't spend all his life hating on himself about it. He needed to do something. So he headed to Megan's room.
Wally was on top of Dick, kissing him, when he heard the door in the room next door open and close, and Conner's voice followed by Megan's.
He stood up, leaving Dick whining in the bed.
"C'mon, Walls, get back here. You're always distracted by the most meaningless things."
"Shut up, Little bird, MM and Sups are having a fight."
One second later, both guys had their ears against the wall, and were listening carefully.
They stayed that way for what seemed a lifetime. When they stood up, none of them was smiling anymore.
"They're going to tell Kaldur about what happened in the island?! He's going to kill them!"
"Yeah, but you know Conner. H couldn't leave with the guilt… I hate it when he gets all melodramatic."
After that interruption, they continued kissing.
"Kissing. You didn't help Kid Flash and Robin because you were kissing. They could have been killed. We could all have been killed! Even you could have been killed. But you were too focused on your tongues to help the others."
After shouting at them for hours, Aqualad told Miss Martian and Superboy to go to their rooms. Separate rooms.
And he decided he needed to do something.
"Anyone know why he called us?" asked Wally. Nobody answered.
Kaldur approached the group who was sitting on a table, and told them exactly what had happened in the island between Conner and Megan.
"This can't ever ever happen again. So I have a new rule. No more dating. As long as you are in this team, you two can't be together. And no one can."
No one can be together.
Just when Dick was about to tell them about his boyfriend.
He looked at Wally. He was pale too.
"No more dating…"
