Thing is so long that you have to download it!!

This super long one-shot (which is the longest I’ve ever written: 21 pages) is based off of my favorite song “The Man Who Can’t Be Moved” by the Script. It is also dedicated to a senior boy who recently passed away in my school. Although nobody dies in this story, it shows that there is kindness, hope, and compassion in people. Going through some tough times, I was touched by how much people cared for my sorrow, even if I wasn’t a close friend with the boy. After writing this, I felt much better and had more faith in our world, even if it does seem like the human race is heading for its doom. But hey! Lets take a picnic basket to hell, huh?

Yeah, that sounded a little emo…now to my explanation for this songfic.

The song “The Man Who Can’t Be Moved” is about a guy who broke up with his girlfriend but is still in love with her. However, he can’t find her and, not knowing what else to do, camps out at the place that they’d meet and waits for her.

The first verse of the song is, “Going back to the corner where I first saw you. Gonna camp in my sleeping bag, I'm not gonna move. Got some words on cardboard, got your picture in my hand, saying, ‘if you see this girl can you tell her where I am?’" was a major factor in this piece. Need I say more?

Also the two lines, “Some people try to hand me money, they don't understand

I'm not broke I'm just a broken hearted man” inspired the old couple giving him money and I used the phrase “I’m not broke, I’m just a broken hearted man” so all credit goes to the Script, not me!

Two other major parts of the song that were big inspiration for me was when the policeman comes (yes, this was in the song. I find it awesome!) and how he becomes famous by the newscasters. I highly recommend this song because it is heartwarming and beautiful.

I tried something new with this story because it is in past tense and I have a different kind of writing style. I know this isn’t my best work but please forgive me. I was having some tough times and it is hard to concentrate on writing when you have something like that happen to you.

Oh yeah, and a round of applause for Dunkin’ Donuts! I don’t go there very often but I chose it because it is open early in the morning and kind of late at night (and I know I could have chosen McDonalds or some other fatty place, but I don’t like McDonalds so Dunkin’ Donuts is good for me!) I also chose that store because there logo is “We ‘kin do it!” And, although not shown in the story, it fits rather nicely.

Sorry for the super long author’s note!!

It is almost done! Finally, after that super long period of time I have almost finished it. All that is left is sending it to my two beta readers for them to check over, make the edits, then post it! My guess is that it should be up by at least Monday.
