She notices him. She can feel his eyes staring at her and it pains her.
Curious as she was, she looked at him.
And she regretted looking back
His eyes shone silver and hard. She ALMOST remember the time she felt this silly sensation at the pit of her stomach... Almost
It happened with this boy that was covered with gray walls
She remembers being held captive inside his dungeon. She remembers the same feeling of hurt like today
Her faith was lost and was almost vanishing. She remembers debating with herself if she'll just kill herself right there and right now, inside a dark room full of death and hell.
She even wonder how he can survive in his house
And ofcourse, she realized that he too, was locked up in a cage full of monsters
Not like monsters like her fantasy nargles... But monsters in reality. Monsters like Death Eaters and... Voldemort
She remembers thst feeling of coldness when she was there.
They were all dying slowly there, abused and hurt with different kinds of people. She sometimes hope that they'll show mercy and just kill them to end their suffering
One night, a light shone and she forced a smile. "Please have mercy. Kill us, end this please" her eyes darted to the shinning form when she was too shocked about his soft gestures, but his face was hard as a stone. "Draco the metal" To her surprise face that night did Draco truly opened up to someone. Someone who was lucky to hear him laugh.
She remember every little detail about his appearance. But she will never forget about his heart
She will never let go of the feeling that she felt when he smiles at her
She will never let go of the feeling that she felt when he cried
when he cared
when he kept her safe
when he kissed her
when he loved her
when she loved him back
She snapped out of her thoughts when droplets of liquid fell from her eyes, for a moment she was almost relieved when she saw him flinch. She remembers him telling her that he doesn't like it when she cries, he said it weakens him. She felt that he still cares
She carried her feet, forward, forward, forward.
"Draco" she hugged him across his chest and he carress her hair with his hand, pulling her head closer to his heart. He shivered when he felt her sob harder and was clenching his school robes
"I know... I know you'll marry Astoria Greengrass and it was a pureblood thing to do. But Draco... I don't want you... To forget about me! Even when metals and rust doesn't fit together, I believe in my heart that we fit perfectly. With rules and no rules... I won't push you to fight for me but... Please Draco... Please... Don't forget about me. That's all I want" She clutched her tiny fists to the back of his school robes, inhaling his scent for the last time she will ever be close to him. She can't help but to let frustrated tears fall desperately
"Luna... Do you remember that rusts holds on perfectly on the metal?" he can't help but to feel his heart slowly breaking, for once, he let his tears fall down and he nuzzled to Luna's hair "And you will always hunt me with your memories. You will always gonna be in my heart. And thanks to you, I finally knew I owned one"
He pulled away from her hair and hold her head to his hands. He pushed away sone of her wet strands and leaned his head to pull her lips to a kiss.
Fieworks, love, and passion.
He knew that nobody would ever replace his rust, nobody would ever make him feel alive like Luna Lovegood did to him.
"You will permanently stuck in my heart Luna Lovegood"
She was the rust. He was the metal. He was glittering and no one can cover him, except for a rust. He will be linked with another metal but the rust will forever be a part of him.
