Hey! So this is meant to be a Scrominique (which to me, sounds like Scor, Dom and Rose or Roxanne =P) but it's kinda one-sided :/

For Skandar-Loves-Redvines (DRISHTI XX)

For the nextgen fanatics drabble tag also.. but I failed, cos this is way too long to be a drabble :P

DISCLAIMER: I don't own her characters, I'm merely borrowing them :)

This hesitation is killing you, love

It started back in school, when you were the brightbrightbright s-h-i-n-i-n-g Gryffindor, right?

And you were the star of the school, sunshine

And you never[ever] told anyone

But you alwaysalwaysalways liked him, didn't you dear?

The boy with the blueblueblue Ravenclaw tie

and the g-r-e-y eyes that stare into your soul

The boy with the gleaming hair that looked like s|p|u|n platinum

And she was your cousin - and no-one loved her, oh no

You couldn't let anyone love her better than you, could you dear?

Even though she was a twinkling star in the dark n|i|g|h|t|s|k|y

You were the fiery inferno, baby, and you burnt her little star out

And he was the m-o-o-n [and the moon belongs with the sun, right?]

But all it took was onelittlesecond of you b-a-s-k-i-n-g in your glory too long

and he was hers [cos this moon likes the stars, honey]

And you blame that annoying thing [h-e-s-i-t-a-t-i-o-n]

when he's coming home to dinner for her

When he's dropping down on one knee for her

When she walks down the aisle, to where he's waiting for her

You're not such a brightbrightbright s-h-i-n-i-n-g Gryffindor now, are you love?

All it took was one little second of h-e-s-i-t-a-t-i-o-n

Quick... he hasn't married her yet, sunshine

But you can't open your mouth, can you?

And so you w|a|t|c|h as he kisses her, and boom

they're a shower of rain and s|p|a|r|k|s

of m-o-o-n and stars

and little inferno-girl, you aren't so bright anymore, are you?

and you watched as the moon and the stars got their happily-ever-after

"I present to you the newly wedded Mr Scorpius and Mrs Rose Malfoy.."

and your sister hug them, and wish them what should have been yours and his congratulations

"Thank you so much, Victoire!"

and suddenly you're all walking past..

"And the happy couple would like to thank the wedding party"

And all your cousins and brother in front of you

"Molly, Roxanne, Albus, Lily, Lucy, Fred, Louis, James, Hugo and Dominique"

and you're the afterthought, once again

but it could have been Mr Scorpius and Mrs Dominique Malfoy..

if only you hadn't hesitated.

[[but face it darling - this moon always loved the stars, even if your fiery inferno of a sun didn't]]

and so..

you [Dominique Weasley]

just

b|u|r|n

yourself
