'And I'll do anythin' you ever dreamed to be complete
(Yeah, slide)
Little pieces of the nothin' that fall
(yeah slide)
And I'll do anythin' you ever dreamed to be complete
(Yeah slide)
Little pieces of the nothin' that fall
(Oh, oh slide)
Yeah, slide between the sheets of all them beds you never knew
(Yeah slide)
Why don't you slide into my room
Just slide into my room
Oh, we'll run away, run away, run away'
~ 'Slide' sung by the Goo Goo Dolls
Author's Notice: So you're terribly lucky, but not! Another D/P. Goodness it's been a long time. This one's a bit strange. Blame it on me being exhausted *pouting* Anyway. About the song...I just love it. And about the first line and the last line of the fic seriously just don't ask. It just sort of closing sentence. Don't ask, like I said. Teehee.
Pansy

It was why you never wanted to go back to school again. 'Cause you got your heart broken there.
It was only a year, tops.
It was only her heart, at the most.
It was only his soul, in the end.
It was only the destruction of society, sometimes.
It was only why the world ended, on a Sunday.
"No regrets, Parkinson?"
"Oh, after all these years? I feel bad about something's."
"Like what?"
"...allowing myself to fall in love with you."
"Parkinson, I don't think you 'fell in love with anyone'..."
"...anyone except for you."
"I wish it wouldn't have happened like that."
"If you could only understand, some things, just some things."
"I have to go soon."
"You act as though I don't know, Malfoy. As though I won't miss you."
"There's not much to miss."
"Only the memories."
"They'll go away."
"They won't."
"..."
"Shall you leave me?"
"Is there really much choice...Pansy, God that felt wrong."
"Pansy's much prettier than Parkinson, you know. There's a choice. You could stay with me."
"If I wanted to."
"Right. If you wanted to...and you don't."
"I didn't say that."
"Don't play with my mind, Malfoy."
"But it's so easy."
"You're repulsive."
"Like you aren't."
"Where will you go?"
"All around the world! The places we always talked about. Venice...India..."
"Your Father...paying?"
"Of course. Your Mother...dying?"
"Of course."
"We're still good friends, aren't we?"
"Yes. And sometimes even the best."
"We went out for what...?"
A lifetime. Forever. As long as I can remember. Till the beginning of time. Since I saw you. "Probably a year, Malfoy."
"Hm."
"I remember..."
"...a lot of things."
"I wish it all could've..."
"...been good."
"It was good."
"It had its points, Parkinson."
"I loved you then..." A lifetime. Forever. As long as I can remember. Till the beginning of time. Since I saw you.
"I never..." always believed it.
"Well. I'll be seeing you around, then."
"Will you, Malfoy?"
"Later."
"Right. Marcus likes me, you know."
"There's no way I couldn't tell. And what are you waiting for? You could have it all right there."
"Maybe I don't want it all...maybe I just want you."
"Then you're stupid and you don't know what's good for you. Flint's a good man."
"I hate him."
"...because he loves you?"
"Because I can't love him back anymore."
"What a twisted life you lead, Parkinson."
"I could say the same for you, Malfoy. Go. Get on your train or whatever. They'll all be waiting for you I'm sure."
"I don't know how to say goodbye."
"It's okay. I wasn't looking much forward to it either."
"I hope it's okay."
"It is. Everything is fine."
"Good."
"Goodbye, Malfoy."
"Goodbye...Pansy."
And he got on the train.
And he went far away. To see the world. To become a man.
It was why you never wanted to go back to school again. 'Cause you got your heart broken there.
