A/N: This is for Livvi (chasing a fairytale) who is just totally amazing. You were the first ever person I talked to on fanfiction, sweetie, and I hope you have a bloody wonderful birthday!


Binary Opposites

It's always been him, hasn't it?

The comic book villain

The bad guy

You half expect him to have a twirly moustache and a black cat

((except he doesn't))

And you think that maybe it would be easier if he really was all evil

And if he had a plan to destroy the world

((not just a plan to destroy your heart))

And then you could fight

The super-hero

~xx~

The good-girl

You half expect her to have a magical cape and wear colourful tights

((she'd look good in tights, you think))

It would probably be easier if she was completely perfect

((and not just perfect to you))

And if she wore a mask

And hide that beautiful face

{because how are you expected to think when she's around}

~xx~

Maybe their lives were always meant to / collide\

In a flash of green and red

Fate and kryptonite and radioactive spiders had something to do with it

Surely

Things like that don't just happen

At least not in the

R

E

A

L

World

Maybe in fantasy novels

Or in cheep, romantic movies

But not here

Not now

~xx~

It's strange, isn't it?

The way that sometimes

Once in a blue moon ((Or something as equally cliché))

Fantasy&Reality /combine\

To make that wonderful.dangerous.amazing world

Where dreams {nightmares} come true

And the lines between fiction and fact are blurred

The lines between ~ love and hate~

Between a ~Malfoy and a Weasley~

Between lips and hands and skin

All mean nothing

And the lines between

a villain

& a hero

Are shatt/ered

And the fate of our world

((of their world))

Is put on hold for a while

~xx~

It's always been them, hasn't?

His heart stitched firmly with green and silver

Hers tarnished with glorious red

Binary opposites in blood and name

Make an imperfect match

((but perfect to them))

And surely

It will cause the universe to cave in

And the stars to fall

And the sky to cra/ck

But maybe they {don't} care about the

c o n s e q u e n c e s

And maybe they'd risk the fate of the world

((Their world))

On this.

~xx~

And they're like

Noughts&Crosses

In that

OPPOSITES

Always attract


((last few lines belong to YouMeAtSix))
