[I don't own Teen Titans or any of the songs mentioned in this story]

Kyd looked out onto the sparkling city lights below the plane and smiled as they faded out into the blackness of the night sky. It'd been about an hour on the plane to Alabama with William, Kyd despised calling him Billy. William was such a beautiful name...Kyd shook his head as if to erase those thoughts and turned to look at the now sleeping William Strayer. Kyd smiled and took off his annoying black shades from his sleeping face and placed them in a compartment in front of them before raking his fingers through his hair briefly as if to brush it. Kyd finally saw what he was doing and quickly yanked his hand away, blushing only lightly as he pulled his phone out of his black carry-on. Music always helped calm him, ever since he was a child. Perhaps it had something to do with his heritage, but it always took him to another world...a better world.

Kyd put the black earphones in before quickly scrolling past all the Melanie Martinez, the Halsey, Green Day, Amanda Palmer, finally clicking on what was his favorite song lately (it always seemed to skip between genres). The relaxing tune slowly flooded his brain, taking him away as he closed his eyes. He imagined a world where all these dumb feelings and fears didn't exist. Where he could just tell Billy he loved him whenever he wanted and they could just be happy together. They could be and do whatever they wanted without being so fearful of the stares they got from other people, or whether or not the other even felt the same way. If only…

'You were out of my league, all the things I'd believe, you were just the right guy and you were more than just a dream, you were out of my league, got my heartbeat racing, if I die don't wake me cause you are more than just a dream~,' Kyd smiled as he started tapping his foot and mouthing the lyrics to the song.

He very well didn't realize a now awake Billy was staring at him admiringly and trying his hardest not to chuckle at his friend. Billy smiled and layed his head on his shorter friend's shoulder and ignored the startled jolt the other got, they normally did this often. Kyd kept his music so dang loud that as long as you were at least on his shoulder you could hear the music and lyrics almost perfectly. Now that Billy thought about it, they actually did a lot of the things couples do. They just didn't think of it as that. Billy still got that warm fuzzy feeling when he did it, he just tried to ignore it for Kyd's sake.

'From time to time I pinch myself, because I think my girl mistakes me for somebody else, but everytime she takes my hand, all the wonders that remain become a simple fact~' Billy smiled at this, it reminded him of how he was always so self-conscious. So worried that maybe Kyd was only friends with him for the mask he put on in front of their other friends. But Kyd would always pull him to the side and snap him out of it, Kyd was the only person he'd ever met who could see straight through his built up wall.

Billy hummed and drifted back off into sleep as the chorus played on the loud headphones and smirked largely as he felt Kyd lay his head on Billy's. Billy slowly and cautiously reached across his sleeping friend's lap to grab his still playing phone to scroll through his music curiously. Billy was very, very confused. Who was Melanie Martinez? And why did she dress like a child? Who was this Panic! At the Disco? Billy scrolled past Rob Zombie, Marilyn Manson, he saw some Led Zeppelin which Billy himself liked. Billy saw P!nk, Sia, he tried his very hardest not to disturb Kyd with his chuckling as he scrolled past Britney Spears and Nicki Minaj...he finally landed on a particular song and hit play. He remembered listening to this song with Kyd before, now it always made him think of the other.

'My chick she's a little bit punk rock, can't stand when I'm listening to hip hop, she prefers White Snake over Drake, but I make her listen to it anyway~' Billy chuckled at the song's resemblance to another pretty punk rock person he knew.

'She gets mad cause I'm always on my iPhone, her Blackberry can't barely get a signal, she's on time and I'm always running late, I guess she's gonna have to wait, thinking I'm in way over my head yeah~' Billy closed his eyes finally, drifting off into sleep at the funny tune playing in his head.

The two soundly sleeping teenagers were awaken oh so rudely by the announcing woman on the speakers. They were arriving at the Alabama airport evidently. Billy was much too tired to care though, they wouldn't actually be landing for another fifteen minutes. Billy closed his eyes and tuned back into the music playing on Kyd's headphones as he ignored Kyd prodding him off of his shoulder. Billy remained motionless in hopes Kyd would give up, he just wanted fifteen more minutes. Kyd pulled off his headphones and set them on his lap before trying again to push the much heavier Billy off of him, only to have Billy lay his head in his lap since they put the armrest between up already. At this point Kyd realized all he could really do was accept it so he calmly started running his hands through Billy's hair, smiling down at him.

Meanwhile Billy was trying his very hardest not to yell the lyrics to the song currently playing from Kyd's headphones at the oblivious boy.

'She's the girl that no one ever knows, and I say hi but she's too shy to say hello, She's just waiting for that one to take her hand and shake her up, I bet I could, I wish my heart was always on her mind, cause she's on mine like all day all the time, forget me not forget me now, I've come to far to turn around, I'm here tonight~,' Billy sighed at the lyrics playing. He'd heard this song before, felt like screaming the lyrics at Kyd many many times.

'Cause I'm never going down, I'm never giving up, I'm never gonna leave so put your hands up, If you like me, just say you like me, I'm never going down, I'm never giving up, I'm never gonna leave so put your hands up, If you like me, just say you like me~!' Billy sadly sighed again before opening his eyes just barely to see Kyd with a halo of the plane's light surrounding him, he looked almost angelic. It's times like these Billy wishes time would stop forever.

"Attention passengers, we are now landing in Alabama. Please remain seated until we land and leave in an orderly fashion. Thank you." Came the speakers as Billy grudgingly got up from Kyd's lap and grumbled lightly to himself. Well, at least they were here.
