Prompt: Hide
Character: Lily Luna Potter
Hide and seek, darling Lily
It's a game for l i t t l e children
Played with brothers and cousins
And bestbestfriends
But not scorpions
Not him
If you do play with him
Get ready to s e e k, sweetheart
Because he's always hiding
And you know you'll never catch him
She's caught him
But then, she's a l w a y s had him
Because she found him f i r s t
She's got him entranced, under a spell
With her rose-red hair and aqua eyes
And p e r f e c t body and sweetsweet kisses
Hide and seek and don't get c a u g h t
You knows the rules by heart
First you hide
Then you seek
But you'll alwaysalways l o s e
(You're not a winner, little girl)
And he's not s e e k i n g you
All you have are childhood games
And hope and innocence and h a z e l e y e s
While she's got a heart like frost
Forbidden, tempting, dark
Why would he n o t i c e a girl
Who's always seeking?
Too fast, too sweet, too cute to be b e a u t i f u l?
Darling, this is one game you're never gonna
W I N
Because he's the p r i z e
And she's the winner.
Hide and seek, Lily-flower
It's a game for little c h i l d r e n
And that's all you are
(Isn't it?)
Author's Notes: So, this is my very first freeverse! How'd I do? I'm really new at this, so any tips would be much appreciated, if you'd take a moment to review! Next chapter's the other side of this love triangle—Rose/Scorpius/Lily are gonna span three chapters, one for each of them =D—with Rose as our narrator. If you liked it, please review! Thanks!
