Fanmix time, clearly.
This is what boredom, the desire to do music spam, and sleep deprivation bring you: a Jon/"Stephen" fanmix set in my Need universe.
Nowhere To Go; Backstreet Boys
(Jon saves Stephen.)
Maybe I'm heading for a breakdown
And maybe that's okay
Could be I'm hanging on for dear life
Maybe I need to get a grip
…
Save me-I'm falling again
Keep me from breakin' in a million pieces
In the end no matter what I do
There's nowhere, nowhere to go
Nowhere to go but you
*
Everybody’s Fool; Evanescence
(Early on in the relationship, Stephen’s terrified Jon will end up disgusted by him.)
I know the truth now
I know who you are
And I don't love you anymore
It never was and never will be
You don't know how you've betrayed me
And somehow you've got everybody fooled
*
You Can Let Go; Backstreet Boys
(Jon’s promise to Stephen: he’s more than willing to take care of him, and nothing will change that.)
You been holding on so long
Tryin' to make believe that nothing's wrong
Not letting it show
And there ain't nothing you can do
To make me turn away from you
I need you to know
That you can let go
*
Take Control; Amerie
(Emboldened, Stephen hints that he’d like Jon to take more control.)
‘Cause baby I love ya
And I trust ya
You don't have to worry ‘bout nothing
Oh, I'm alive right now, look at me
And I want ya
No, I need ya
And I'll do anything to please ya
I just want you to take control of me
*
Want You Bad; The Offspring
(When hinting doesn’t work-as it often doesn’t with Jon-Stephen kicks it up a notch.)
Your one vice
Is you’re too nice
Come around now can’t you see
…
If you could only read my mind
You would know that I’ve been waiting
So long
For someone almost just like you
But with attitude
I’m waiting so come on
*
Hanky Panky; Madonna
(Jon gets a clue. Fun ensues.)
Some guys like to sweet talk, and
Others, they like to tease
Tie my hands behind my back and, ooh, I'm in ecstasy
…
I just like things a little rough and
You better not disagree
'Cause I don't like a big softie
I like someone mean and bossy
*
My Lover; Melissa Etheridge
(Stephen reflects on Jon and everything he does for him.)
My lover makes me weak
Gives me breath to speak
My lover takes me home
Cools the rolling stone
My lover's thorny kiss
The reason to exist
*
What I Want; Daughtry
(He realizes that he has everything he wants now.)
It always seemed that I was sorry for the things that I did
But never did a thing about it 'til I let you in
It's kinda funny about the time that I was falling apart
You came and put me back together, now
'Cause what I want
And what I need
Has now become the same thing
You've been offering
*
This Man Is Mine; Heart
(Now that he’s realized that, he’s not giving it up without a fight-and he’ll fight dirty.)
Now everybody in this neighborhood
All you women better listen good
I know it's just a matter of time
‘Til one of you steps out of line
All I got is this to say
Simple message to relay
Get out of here and just keep away
'Cause this man is mine
*
Rockstar; Nickelback
(Things aren’t perfect, of course. Stephen’s still a spoiled brat, for example.)
I want a brand new house
On an episode of Cribs
And a bathroom I can play baseball in
And a king size tub big enough
For ten plus me
I'll need a credit card that's got no limit
And a big black jet with a bedroom in it
*
Maybe, This Time; OK Go
(Jon is nothing if not patient, however.)
So listen, I'm not trying to say anything at all here
There isn't much let, anyway, that hasn't been said
But don't you think that possibly, this time, it's different?
Don't you think that maybe, this time, you were wrong?
*
If Looks Could Kill; Heart
(Of course, patience doesn’t always work. Sometimes he has to get angry.)
You're living on the edge, hanging by a thread
I'm watching every move you make
You don't want to see my anger
So don't you make another mistake
Love is on the line-I ain't about to be kind
That's a promise and a threat
If I was you I'd really cool it
Or risk a night you'll never forget
*
Invincible; OK Go
(Stephen hates it when Jon’s mad at him. It feels unbearable.)
'Cause I'm gonna guess they won't be prepared for
Thousand Fahrenheit hot metal lights behind your eyes
Invincible. You're invincible.
That crushing, crashing, atom-smashing, white-hot thing...
*
Forgive Me; Evanescence
(He begs forgiveness. Luckily, Jon will always be around to give it to him.)
I can't live this life
Without you by my side
I need you to survive
So stay with me
You look in my eyes
And I'm screaming inside that I'm sorry.
And you forgive me again
You're my one true friend
And I never meant to hurt you
*
When You Need Me; Bruce Springsteen
(Jon hopes Stephen knows this, and that he’ll always be there for him.)
When you need me call my name
'Cause without you my life just wouldn't be the same
If you want me come sunny skies or rain
When you need me just call my name
If you miss me, I'll be there
To brush the sunlight from your hair
I'll be there to guide you when trouble walks beside you
If you need me I'll be there
*
Here; Idina Menzel
(Stephen does.)
If your car stalls in the middle of the road in snow
I know, I know you'll be here
Lights out, in all of the city, black out no doubt
I know you'll be here
River flows through the streets, and the homes are floating.
I know you'll be here
Stranded in the middle of China, they'll find ya
I know you'll be here
