Breaking Free

Albus and Scorpius have always felt something for each other, but their family prejudices hold them back. Will they ever break free?

~I do not...and will never...own Harry Potter*tear*~


Who knew the Potters were nothing like his father had described?

James was arrogant, sure, but he didn't seem like the "bloody glory seeker" his father had ranted on about for hours on end! Lily was a radiant ball of sunshine who always managed to make Scorpius smile.

And then there was Albus. Where to start with Albus? Even the name just brought delicious shivers.

His fingers tingled when Scorpius saw Albus leaning over a book, his magnificent raven hair dangling teasingly in front of his eyes. Could the bloody boy not push it back and put Scorpius out of his misery?

Albus seemed to float through life, silent and alone. He pushed away everyone; girls, friends, even his family. Beautiful, sensitive Albus seemed so… sad.

And how can anyone have such green eyes?

As much as Scorpius wanted to give in to his feelings, he could not. He was a Malfoy after all. His father was already upset enough about Lily, and brining up Albus and all these complicated feelings would just send Malfoy senior toppling over the edge he was currently teetering on.

Besides, how could Albus ever want him? The odd-one-out. The Gryffindor no one wanted?

Albus was too far away, too unattainable.

Scorpius felt like he was trapped in a glass cage, but he was too weak to ever break free.


Secret glances.

Beating heart.

Aching fingers.

Aching heart.

Silvery blond hair, to his own plain black.

Cool grey eyes, making his own piercing green, darken with desire.

Enemies on the outside, a ravaging love within.

But only one-sided mind you, that's where it all begins.

Deep down inside, Albus knows it's so wrong. No one could possibly see the bright side, and no one could ever understand.

Besides, there was no way his father would ever approve.

But Scorpius was so beautiful, yet perfectly imperfect, too. That smooth as velvet voice, caressing his skin and making his shiver in a way he knew he should never feel with someone like him.

His almost swaggering way of walking, could make any kind of girl run to his side. It made Albus want to run too, but that would ruin everything, making his life a spiral downfall.

Oh, who was he kidding, his life was already a spiral downfall.

How could it not be, when Scorpius was dating the one person Albus could never hurt?

Lily.

Albus could see how much Lily loved Scorpius, and there was no way Albus could break that.

It looked like Albus was destined to just watch for the rest of his life. There was just too much in his way to break free.


Well, this was the result of being epically bored at around 2 in the morning, and a challenge I was faced with by my brother. He told me that I was incapable of writing a slash fic, and I set out to prove him wrong!

So, if you have an annoying brother (or annoying sibling at all really...) review so I can show him that I DID IT! I'll finally be able to prove to him that I'm the smarter twin!

So tell me what you thought! If you liked it or hated it! Tell me anything you liked or disliked, because I love hearing opinions! It makes me write more too…

Ta ta my lovelies,

~Vi:):):)
