((Yeah, this is my first songfic. EVER. So, no laughing. D< I just thought that the song was so sweet, and that it fit them really well. Yes? No?))
----------------
Johnny's daddy was taking him fishin'
When he was eight years old
"Come on, Ryou, you're so slow!" a older man said, laughing at the put-out expression on the white-haired boy's face.
"Dad! That's not fair!" he whined, stomping his foot as he hurried after his father to the river.
A little girl came through the front gate holdin' a fishing pole
His dad looked down and smiled, said we can't leave her behind
Son I know you don't want her to go but someday you'll change your mind
"I don't want her to come!" Ryou whined, pointing at a shy-looking Rikku, who fidgeted with the fishing pole in her hands.
"Well, we can't leave her behind, Ryou," the man said, folding his arms in thought,"I know you don't like it, but..."
And Johnny said "Take Jimmy Johnson, take Tommy Thompson, take my best friend Bo
Take anybody that you want as long as she don't go
Take any boy in the world
Daddy please don't take the girl."
Same old boy
Same sweet girl
Ten years down the road
Ryou laughed slightly, pulling Rikku into a hug. "What, you don't like it?" he teased lightly. She pouted. "You know I like horror movies!" she said,"Well, if you'd paid attention, anyway."
He held her tight and kissed her lips
In front of the picture show
Stranger came and pulled a gun
Grabbed her by the arm said "If you do what I tell you to, there won't be any harm"
Rikku squeaked, eyes shut tight in fear. Ryou stood, eyes pleading. "Mister, please!" he almost begged,"Please don't hurt her!"
And Johnny said "Take my money, take my wallet, take my credit cards
Here's the watch that my grandpa gave me
Here's the key to my car
Mister give it a whirl
But please don't take the girl."
Same old boy
Same sweet girl
Five years down the road
There's going to be a little one and she says it's time to go
Rikku giggled slightly as Ryou hugged her again, placing a gentle hand on her stomach softly. Her giggles stopped after a moment as a somber silence fell as realization sank in.
Doctor says the baby's fine but you'll have to leave
"No..." Ryou whispered, shaking his head,"No..." He fell to his knees, his head buried in his hands. "God, no..."
'Cause his momma's fading fast and Johnny hit his knees and there he prayed
Take the very breath you gave me
Take the heart from my chest
I'll gladly take her place if you'll let me
Make this my last request
Take me out of this world
God, please don't take the girl
An eight-year-old Ryou and Rikku walked side by side, both holding a fishing pole, with Ryou's dad on his other side.
