Song Teardrops on My Guitar by Taylor Swift.


-Prelude Start-

He had changed so much, it was difficult to believe. But he had.

Gone was the foolish young boy of the past, led by the untruths of his father, and today was the matured and handsome young man he had become.

The final battle had occurred three years ago, and so did the demise of the Dark Lord. Everyone had fought hard and bravely, even the most unlikely of people turned out to be heroes. One case, was of Draco Malfoy.

It was revealed, at the end, that he had worked as a double agent for the Order of the Phoenix, and had helped to lead the Order to Voldermort's hideout, resulting in the collapse of his empire.

Draco had made friends with the Order members after the war, even with Ron and Harry, though grudgingly. But one special bond, he had formed with Hermione Granger.

Hermione pondered over his change, the one who had teased her mercilessly when she had been young had become a charming and charismatic young man.

Unfortunately for Hermione, she realised her budding friendship with Draco had extended beyond that. She had fallen head over heels in love with Draco Malfoy.

The worst thing was, she didn't know if he loved her too, and Hermione thought back to her predicament…

-Prelude End-

Drew looks at me, I fake a smile so he won't see,

He flashes a smile at me, and I can't help but to smile back, although I'm crushed deep inside my heart.

That I want and I'm needing, everything that we should be,

I just wish he was mine; that he loved me just as I do him. I can't stop my feelings.

I'll bet she's beautiful, that girl he talks about,

He talks to me about this girl, his whole life. She's witty and smart, and I'd gladly bet that she's so much more beautiful than me, for him to be smitten.

And she's got everything that I have to live without...

He will never be mine, I know. I will always be a friend to him, just a friend. And I have no choice but to live with that.

Drew talks to me, I laugh 'cause it's so damn funny,

Whenever he talks, I feel light hearted. He cracks jokes to cheer me up when I'm unhappy, and shares my joy when I'm happy.

But I can't even see anyone when he's with me,

When he's with me, I lose sight of the world. Nothing else matters, its only him and me together, just talking our hearts out, sharing our special moments together.

He says he's so in love, he's finally got it right,

He tells me of the girl he loves, and when he does, his eyes glaze over, and a small smile of contentment appears on his face. I try to be happy for him, and so I suppress my tears, just to be strong for him.

I wonder if he knows he's all I think about at night...

But when I return to my room at night, I think about him, his beautiful grey eyes that I often get lost in, his platinum blond hair, his perfect porcelain skin.

He's the reason for the teardrops on my guitar,

And so I cry, I cry myself to sleep each night, thinking about him.

The only thing that keeps me wishin' on a wishin' star,

I wish, for just one day, that he could be mine, that he would love me, just one day…

He's the song in the car I keep singin', don't know why I do...

Although I know it's hopeless, I keep on wishing, hoping, and I have no idea why. I'm supposed to be the most rational girl in school, the one who knows when doing something is of no use. But still, I keep wishing.

Drew walks by me, can he tell that I can't breathe?

When he touches me, even the most innocent of touches, I feel a jolt of electricity passing through me.

And there he goes, so perfectly,

The most perfect I've ever seen, I see in him.

The kind of flawless I wish I could be,

I wish that I could have his perfection, and then maybe, just maybe, he would love me in kind.

She better hold him tight, give him all her love

I dream of being the girl he talks about, the one so lucky to be able to look him the eyes and hear him say "I love you".

Look in those beautiful eyes and know she's lucky 'cause...

She's so lucky; she has all I've ever wanted. She'd better know that she's the luckiest girl in the world, and love him for all she's worth.

He's the reason for the teardrops on my guitar,

And so I pray, I wish, I hope; for the day that he will finally realise that he loves me. But deep down, I know that this dream is impossible.

The only thing that keeps me wishin' on a wishin' star,

I'll keep crying inside, more and more, till the day he tells me he loves me, or till the day I die. Only till then, will the tears dry.

He's the song in the car I keep singin', don't know why I do...

He will never be gone from my mind; he will always haunt my thoughts, no matter what.

So I drive home alone, as I turn out the light,

I'll put his picture down and maybe get some sleep tonight...

I trudge up to my room at night, and turn to switch off the lights. Looking at his picture, I think of all the times we shared, the good and the bad. I smile sadly one last time as I put his picture facedown on my bedside table, and retire for the night.

Cause he's the reason for the teardrops on my guitar,

The only one who's got enough of me to break my heart,

He's the cause for this heartbreak, but it's not his fault. I cannot control my love, I have only myself to blame for my pain.

He's the song in the car I keep singing don't know why I do...

I will never stop thinking of him…

He's the time taken up, but there's never enough,

Too long has been spent with tears, with pain, and I really should be moving on; but

And he's all that I need to fall into..

Draco's my comfort, my anchor, everything and anything that keeps me supported, and he's not mine.

Drew looks at me, I fake a smile so he won't see...

So I just continue on with my heartbreak, with the tears, hidden deep down inside; and pray that I'll be able to continue with the façade till the day I leave…


I was one day listening to songs on youtube, when I heard teardrops on my guitar. I suddenly got inspiration and voila! There you go. REVIEW PLEASE. This will be a twoshot. I might get a happy ending. The prelude was sort of an explanation for the story, so that it isn't that AU. I cut it off from the rest of the story because it wouldn't seem really right, meaning get into the way of the fic.
