SUMMARY: Draco goes about his average day at Hogwarts while thinking bittersweetly about a certain green eyed someone.

I woke up with a smile on my face. I closed my eyes again remembering my dream. Miles of soft tan skin, callused fingers caressing my back, smiling lips, sparkling eyes. Then I rolled out of bed and let the smile fall from my face making it go blank as I made my way to the Slytherin boys bathroom. Inside I was still smiling up at those laughing green eyes but on the outside I was what I was expected to be. Cold, calm, controlled Draco Malfoy. It was time for another day.
I wake up in the morning
Put on my face
The one that's gonna get me
Through another day
I make my way down to the Great Hall flanked by Crabbe and Goyle. I swagger with my expected arrogance and sneer at the first year Hufflepuffs, who scurry away frightened. I smirk and snigger at Crabbe and Goyle's jokes and glare at everyone who looks at me. I keep on the mask until we sit down at the Slytherin table. . .
Doesn't really matter
How I feel inside
This life is like a game sometimes
. . .and then I glance up at you and everything threatens to fall.
Then you came around me
The walls just disappeared
There's no one anymore but you and me. And for a moment I allow myself to believe that, as I'm looking in your eyes. There's nothing. No Crabbe, no Goyle. No Lucius. No Voldemort. No Death Eaters. No war. Just us.
Nothing to surround me
Keep me from my fears
So right then I smile at you, just a little. And you smile back.
I'm unprotected
See how I've opened up
You've made me trust
Then I blink and everything crashes back down around us. I turn and start up a conversation with Crabbe. I pretend as if your not there. It's hard.
After we finish eating Crabbe, Goyle and I walk from the great hall, amiss a crown of Ravenclaws eager to get to class, much to Crabbe and Goyle's disgust. I don't notice that you and your side kicks are also in the crowd, so when someone accidentally pushes me into you I'm surprised.
As Crabbe and Goyle deal with the poor Ravenclaw I turn to you and once again our eyes lock.
Trying to remember
Why I was afraid
'Why does it have to be this way,' silver eyes ask.
'Because this is how you wanted it,' green answers.
To be myself
And let the covers fall away
I sneer and shove you into your friends arms, then walk away throwing some scathing comment over my shoulder. I hear you yell back at me pretending to be angry but I ignore it cause I know your pretending.
In every class we have together I pretend your not there. Cause if your note there I won't have to deal with what I feel around you. If your not there the pretending gets easier. We're both good at pretending.
Guess I had never had
Someone like you
To help me fit
In my skin
The rest of the day drags by until dinner rolls around. Your sitting at your table between your friends who are once again arguing over your head. Your ignoring them, staring morosely at your food. After a moment you glance up and see me. You give a small grin then stand, giving your friends some excuse, and exist the hall.
I wait for about five minutes then follow your example, though I don't give an excuse. No one questions a Malfoy.
I walk quickly down the hall until I come to the door of a broom closet. I look around, no ones in sight, and open the door. A reaches out and drags me in shutting the door before pushing me against it. I look up to see your grinning down at me and I grin back as your lips descend onto mine.
I've never felt like this before
I'm naked around you
Does it show
You see right through me
And I can't hide
I'm naked around you
And then there's miles of soft tan skin, callused fingers caressing my back, smiling lips, sparkling eyes and whispered voices.
"Harry."
"Draco."
And it feels so right

A/N: Well there it is. Just something that popped into my head and wouldn't go away. The songs called Naked and it's off of Avril's first album, Let Go. For anyone who's reading my The Servant, do worry I plan to have the next chapter out by Wednesday by the latest. So you know what do, GO REVIEW!
