Disclaim: I only own the plot. Characters belong to Rowling, the lyrics to Coldplay.
AN: I recommend listening to the song "Green Eyes" by Coldplay while reading this little piece of fiction, it gives a nice effect :)
Green Eyes
He cleared his throat. "This song is dedicated to the person I once loved", he said and looked up, watching the small crowd sitting at the tables around the stage. No one seemed to have noticed him. He cleared his thoat again, a little louder this time, and then said: "It's called 'Green Eyes'".
He shook his blond hair out of his face nervously, then struck the first chord.
"Honey you are a rock
Upon which I stand
And I come here to talk
I hope you understand
That green eyes, yeah the spotlight, shines upon you
And how could, anybody, deny you "
He looked down at the small audience, suddenly not feeling nervous anymore. A few people had lifted their heads and were looking at him now, with some interest.
"I came here with a load
And it feels so much lighter, now I've met you
And honey you should know, that I could never go on without you
Green Eyes"
His own grey eyes were tearful. He wished the Green Eyes would forgive him, forgive everything he had done. He hoped very much that the Green Eyes were there, in the listening audience, right now, understanding, forgiving. Loving.
"Honey you are the sea
Upon which I float
And I came here to talk
I think you should know
That green eyes, you're the one that I wanted to find
And anyone who, tried to deny you must be out of their mind "
Oh, once he had tried to deny the Green Eyes. He had, in fact, convinced himself tha he hated the Green Eyes. Hated them. He had been so stupid...
"Cause I came here with a load
And it feels so much lighter, since I met you
Honey you should know, that I could never go on without you"
He looked out over the crowd again, desperately seeking the Green Eyes amongst them. And there they were, looking into his grey ones with a curious look. Then they smiled. The Green Eyes smiled.
"Green Eyes"
He was walking towards the stage now, the boy with the Green Eyes, a smile playing on his lips.
"Green Eyes"
His eyes widened, staring into the laughing green ones. 'What are you doing?', the grey eyes were trying to ask, but the green ones merely smiled, as they moved closer.
"Honey you are a..."
His words died, his guitar becoming silent as the Green Eyes had aproached him. They stared at each other for a moment. Then the ravenhaired boy with the green eyes smiled wider. Draco returned it, for the first time. The silence in the small bar was now deafening. But it did not matter, nothing mattered anymore. No words were needed. Draco reached for the other boys hand, never wanting to let it go.
But the same second he grabbed the hand, it was gone. The bar, the guitar, the Green Eyes, everything. Gone...
Draco woke up, the moon still gleaming outside his window. 'A dream', he thought miserably.
"Honey you are a rock
Upon which I stand"
A single tear was trickling down his nose and onto his pillow.
"Green Eyes"
