Mix - Fake News: Your Last First Kiss

Medium: Television
Fandom: The Colbert Report
Subject: Teenage AU "Stephen"/Jon
Title: Your Last First Kiss

For the sandbox challenge: a mix for the Childhood Sweethearts AU by politicette and themistoklis. (Is there an index post for it yet?) Present-day AU which Jon and Stephen grow up together (which leaves teenage Stephen significantly less screwed-up), and end up running off to Boston to get married.

♥ trisha yearwood :: she's in love with the boy
Undercover teenage romance, with foreshadowing. (Lyrics slightly altered.)

Katie and Tommy Stephen and Jonny at the drive-in movie
Parked in the very last row
They're too busy holding on to one another
To even care about the show
But later on outside the Tastee Freeze,
Jonny slips something on his hand
He says, "My high school ring will have to do
Till I can buy a wedding band"

His daddy says, "He ain't worth a lick
When it comes to brains, he got the short end of the stick."
But Stephen's young and man he just don't care
He'd follow Jonny anywhere
He's in love with the boy
He's in love with the boy
He's in love with the boy
And even if they have to run away
He's gonna marry that boy someday



♥ simple plan :: one day
Stephen's home situation.

Sometimes this house feels like a prison
That I just can't leave behind
There's so many rules I got to follow
'Cuz you can't let go

I don't wanna hear it
And I just can't believe it
All the stupid things you say

But one day
I won't take this anymore
One day
I'll be old enough to do what I want to
I won't have to run away
And you won't be there to say I'm not allowed to
One day



♥ marc lavoine :: parking des anges
Two kids stealing a car, sneaking off to a parking lot, and getting it on.

Une fille aime un garçon
Dans une voiture volée
Près d'une ville bidon
Sur une zone en danger

Terrain vague amarré
A la cité romaine
Comme un fou décoiffé
Déshabille une reine

Sur le parking des anges
Plus rien ne les dérange
La folie les mélange
C'est la nuit qui les change
Sur le parking des anges
Deux anges au petit jour
Ont fait l'amour, ont fait l'amour



♥ snow patrol :: all i have
Stephen leans on Jon more and more.

It's so clear now that you are all that I have
I have no fear cause you are all that I have

There is a darkness deep in you
A frightening magic I cling to...

Give me a chance to hold on
Give me a chance to hold on
Just give me something to hold onto



♥ journey :: only the young
When it hits them that they could actually do it.

Only the young can say
They're free to fly away
Sharing the same desires
Burnin' like wildfire



♥ augustana :: boston
Making plans.

I think I'll go to Boston
I think I'll start a new life
I think I'll start it over
Where no one knows my name
I'll get out of California Carolina...

I think I'll go to Boston
I think that I'm just tired
I think I need a new town
To leave this all behind



♥ goo goo dolls :: slide
Jon's reassurance, and proposal, after Stephen's family meltdown.

Don't you love the life you'd kill?
The priest is on the phone
Your father hit the wall
Your ma disowned you...

I wanna wake up where you are
I won't say anything at all
So why don't you slide...

And I'll do anything you ever dreamed to be complete
Little pieces of the nothing that fall
Oh May, put your arms around me
What you feel is what you are
And what you are is beautiful
Oh May, do you wanna get married
Or run away



♥ rod stewart :: young turks
Making themselves a future out of community college and part-time jobs and a whole lot of Easy Mac.

Billy left his home with a dollar in his pocket and a head full of dreams
He said somehow, someway, it's gotta get better than this
Patty packed her bags, left a note for her momma, she was just seventeen
There were tears in her eyes when she kissed her little sister goodbye
They held each other tight as they drove on through the night
They were so excited...

Paradise was closed, so they headed for the coast in a blissful manner
They took a two-room apartment that was jumping every night of the week
Happiness was found in each other's arms, as expected, yeah
Billy pierced his ears, and drove a pickup like a lunatic, ooooh

Young hearts be free tonight
Time is on your side
Don't let them put you down
Don't let them push you around
Don't let them ever change your point of view

Billy wrote a letter back home to Patty's parents, trying to explain
He said, we're both really sorry that it had to turn out this way
But there ain't no point in talking when there's nobody listening
So we just ran away



♥ anberlin :: inevitable
Years later, looking back.

Do you remember when we were just kids?
And cardboard boxes took us miles from what we would miss
School yard conversations taken to heart
And laughter took the place of everything we knew
We were not

I wanna break every clock
The hands of time could never move again...

I wanna be your last first kiss

^_^ Hee! I will make sure to take a listen to these. Just looking at the lyrics I like the first song especially.

There is not a masterpost, exactly. There is a not-nearly-finished post at my fic journal, but that's for all of my stuff. sirdrakesheir and I have verse projects in various states of progress, though.

More in this 'verse would be lovely, so this is good to hear :D

I've been listening to this mix over the weekend, and I'm just floored by how spot-on you were in picking these songs to go along with the story. The first two tracks made me feel I was inside the story, and then later on Boston by Augustana -- just so very evocative.

What an awesome 'verse this is!
