General Story Info:
Title: Excuse Me, I'm Head Boy
Author: OCDdegrassi
Note: These will all be various drabbles centered around Percy – many of them written for challenges on the Harry Potter Fanfiction Challenges Forum. They are all short enough that I don't feel like they warrant their own story (so generally under 500 words). Ratings, pairings, and warnings will vary for each drabble and will be included at the top of each chapter. The title is a quote by Percy from the Prisoner of Azkaban. I am also taking requests, so if you have any Percy-pairings that you want to see, then let me know, and I will see what I can do! Don't be shy about asking for strange or rare Percy-pairings either, because I'm very open-minded. You can also give me prompts, if you want :)

"Our candle burns away the ashes full of lies. I gave my soul to you; you cut me from behind."
The candle cast a dim glow around the empty room, and Percy stared at the flickering flame until everything else around it seemed to fade away.
Oliver had cheated on him. Percy had trusted him, and he had been burned for his naiveté. Yet they could have moved past it, but Oliver chose to leave him for the other man instead.
Oliver had set fire to their relationship, burning it until nothing but ash remained.
Their love had been warm and bright when it was new, but it had burned out far too quickly, and now Percy was left cold and alone.
The wax was dripping down the side of the candle like tears, but Percy felt too numb to cry.
The flame was taunting him; reminding him that he would never feel warm again. He blew it out, plunging the world into a darkness that mirrored his heart.
