Title: Hurts
Author: Asuka-san
Rating: PG
Disclaimer: Well, this thing's horribly short, and rather demented, in my opinion. I've no idea why I wrote it, since all I did was sit down at my keyboard and it came out. Ooh, and it has another of those absolutely brilliant titles only I seem to be able to churn out (sarcasm, if you can't tell).
Here's your warning: it's SLASH, but dreadfully tame. There's no actual interaction between the characters involved, so I really think you need to broaden your horizons a tad if it offends you.
Disclaimers: Draco Malfoy belongs to Jo Rowling, not I, as do the other Harry Potter characters.
***********************
I love him, you know. I love him so much it hurts, at times.
I want to snort. I want to laugh; I want to jeer at my own pathetic feelings, mock myself.
Draco Malfoy, spouting the feeble thoughts of the love struck and heart broken. It's so ridiculous, I almost don't think I can stand it. I want to crack up, right here in the corridor, right where I stand, watching him. I want to pound someone's face into the wall I'm leaning against, or smash the suit of armour standing across from me.
I want to kill him, for making me feel this way. And, God, I want to grab onto him and refuse to let him move out of my arms.
I hate this. Hate it hate it hate it.
But I love him. I love him so much it hurts.
And he doesn't even know, doesn't even care. He'll never know, and he'll certainly never care.
I'll see to it that he never has any reason to suspect.
I do laugh, as I leave him to scramble around on all fours, searching for that stupid pet of his. It sounds cold and bitter, even I can tell that.
Draco Malfoy, in love with Neville Longbottom, the laughing stock of Gryffindor?
