He stood in one of the halls of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. It was the last day of school and there were so many people out and about that he never noticed him observing him. But that was how it always was ... admiring from a far.
He watched Harry change from little reluctant boy hero, to a full grown man. He respected the way Harry had taken his responsibility to the public when most others had run away. Hell, he might have run away too, knowing what Voldemort was like on a personal basis.
Harry should run away. If he knew what was good for him, he would. But then again that was the problem, wasn't it. Harry just didn't know when to stop. He tried his hardest because that's all he ever knew how to do.
He should have been in Slytherin. We would have taught him the tricks. Draco thought to himself.
The raven haired man that now appeared to him in the hall was so confident. So unlike the boy of yesterday. Even with the taunts and teases he put those green eyes through, he knew it didn't matter. Nothing he did really affected Harry. None of it did.
Harry was laughing with his friends now. Draco just stared. He was always on the outside looking in. Never a part of anything he really wanted to be a part of.
He shrugged to himself and walked away, leaving the sight of Harry and everything he had come to look forward to at Hogwarts behind him. It was time to move on. He'd have to find new reasons to get up in the morning now. A different reason to smirk. But he seriously doubted that anybody would elicit the same kind of smirks and passionate outbursts from him ever again.
Only Harry.
Only The Boy Who Lived.
Too bad he wasn't in Slytherin, he thought to himself again. He should have been in Slytherin.
"Draco?" he heard behind him...
The End
