Pairing: Draco/Harry
Summary: It was a common mistake. That was all. And a simple mistake shouldn't cost someone everything they want in life.
-=-=A Common Mistake=-=-
It was a common mistake. We were played out as enemies. Put up against each other constantly. Each of us playing for another team. He was mad. I knew that, but he threw the first punch! He's the one who attacked first. I was just continuing the act, this play that we had been acting in from the moment we'd met. I had forgotten who I was for a moment. At that moment I was Harry Potter, and he was Malfoy. The boy who lived against the Dark Lord's Minion.
You couldn't blame me for shooting back. The attack didn't even hit him! But it started it up. Before either of us knew what was happening we were battling. Wands raised and spells bouncing back and fourth. Sinks shattered, toilets burst from their stalls, throwing water everywhere. I'm sure if we hadn't been set up as we had for this long. This would have never happened. Instead of using force, instead of flying off spells...we could have been talking, we could have settled this matter without even once thinking of drawing our wands. But...because of who we were, these sorts of things came naturally now. Now even the littlest of emotions came out through violent. Out through spells and charms, through hoaxes and curses...
He had stormed off, and when I finally caught up to him I could see the tears that ran down his face. Draco Malfoy had been vulnerable at that moment, and I had shown my face to him. I had provoked him, and I knew why, but...then...if only we never had to play these parts, maybe then we could have worked this out like a normal couple...
"I hate you!" Malfoy screamed, his body still shaking as he turned from his hiding place to cast off another spell towards Harry who dodged it by a hair. "I hate-" But his words were suddenly cut off as Harry's own spell smashed into his chest and he was sent flying backwards and out of sight.
It was a common mistake. Everyone makes them...Draco had caught me kissing another girl. But it hadn't been my fault! I had been drug into it, she had kissed me! And Malfoy had just stumbled upon it at the wrong time. And maybe if we had never had to play the roles of enemies, maybe I could have easily talked it out with him. But...at most times, when you play something for so long, it's hard to distinguish reality from fiction. Especially when the role you play is a part of reality itself...
"Draco-" He hadn't meant for it to hit him...but it had, and now Draco lay there sobbing softly as the blood began to soak into his shirt and began to color the water that surrounded his body.
A common mistake...that was all. Getting caught up in an act...but that common mistake-
"DRACO!" Snape called out as he rushed into the bathroom, quickly picking up the severally injured Malfoy not even bothering to glare at Potter as he panicked to save his student.
-that common mistake, just cost me everything I was striving for in live...for Draco Malfoy.
Author's Note: I'm needing to get back into writing Fanfiction. So since I don't wanna just go and hit up my other fanfictions all of a sudden. I decided I'd warm up with a few Drarry Drabbles and one-shots for now ^^
