A/N: Written because I was listening to the killers song 'Mr. Brightside' which I adore.

Disclaimer: I own nothing. Characters are JK's and the song belongs to The Killers.

OOOOOO

I've changed so much over the past year and tonight's the chance for me to show it. I don't know why you kissed me last week but I'm glad you did. It made me realise that I love you and I'd give up anything to show you that and be with you. How ironic. A masquerade ball to show the real me.

I'm coming out of my cage
And I've been doing just fine
Gotta gotta gotta be down
Because I want it all

I want you so much and tonight I'm going to get it. It's time to show the world and you the real Draco Malfoy. And it's all because of one little kiss. And it was only a few seconds. But it meant so much to me.

It started out with a kiss
How did it end up like this
It was only a kiss, it was only a kiss

You kissed her. In front of everyone, you kissed her. Only two days after you kissed me you're kissing that little slut of a Weasley. How could you do this to me? Did it mean nothing to you? Do I mean noting to you?

Now I'm falling asleep
And she's calling a cab
While he's having a smoke
And she's taking a drag

I didn't even know you smoked. But there you are, sat on the steps sharing a fag with that little bitch. You're a bloody fag Potter! What you doing with a girl?

Do you know how ironic it is that you make me realise I'm gay and then you're kissing some girl. You're denying yourself, Potter. I'd pity you if I didn't love you so much.

Now they're going to bed
And my stomach is sick
And it's all in my head
But she's touching his chest
Now, he takes off her dress
Now, let me go

You're dancing again. She's wrapped around you and I can tell you're whispering things in her ear by the way she smiles every now and again and blushes. It makes me sick to think that I believed that that could be me. It makes me sick to think what you'll be doing together after the ball.

I just can't look its killing me
And taking control
Jealousy, turning saints into the sea
Swimming through sick lullabies
Choking on your alibis
But it's just the price I pay
Destiny is calling me
Open up my eager eyes
'Cause I'm Mr Brightside

And to think, that despite the fact that you're sat there with some girl sprawled over you, I still love you. There's nothing you can do that'll stop me. And it's ridiculous! A Malfoy should not feel this way. Especially about a Potter. Especially about you.

I'm coming out of my cage
And I've been doing just fine
Gotta gotta gotta be down

Because I want it all

I feel so depressed. All week she's been all over you. Breakfast. Dinner. Lunch. In corridors. Before class. After class. Everywhere I look. There she is. Holding your hand. Making gooey faces. Kissing you. Stealing you away from me.


It started out with a kiss
How did it end up like this
It was only a kiss, it was only a kiss

God, Potter. How have you done this to me? It was one stupid kiss that wasn't even that good. You've made my life fall apart, Potter. You made me love you, Harry, with one silly little insignificant kiss.


Now I'm falling asleep
And she's calling a cab
While he's having a smoke
And she's taking a drag

I still see you all the time in my minds eye. Huddled together on those steps, sharing that fag. I think I can pinpoint that as the point my heart broke.


Now they're going to bed
And my stomach is sick
And it's all in my head
But she's touching his chest
Now, he takes off her dress
Now, let me go

I imagine it all the time. I can see you together. You slipping off her robes, her fingers curled in your hair. It's not real but it hurts all the same. Make it stop, Harry. You started it. Let me go.

I just can't look its killing me
And taking control
Jealousy, turning saints into the sea
Swimming through sick lullabies
Choking on your alibi

You came to talk to me today. Told me you were sorry. Told me that you didn't want it to be like this. That you wanted me. That you don't want to be with Mini-Weasley. That our kiss meant more to you than anything else.

And you know what? Sadist that I am, I actually believed you. And I wish with all my heart that I could be with you. That I can have you like she has you.

But it's just an alibi, isn't it Harry? Your way of making sure that I never tell anyone what you did?

I guess I deserve it for everything I did to you. It' the price I pay.


But it's just the price I pay
Destiny is calling me

I'll always love you. But I guess I'll just go back to the way I was. It's the Malfoy destiny. Alone and friendless. Naturally.


Open up my eager eyes
'Cause I'm Mr Brightside

I never...
I never...
I never...

I'm never going to stop loving you. And you'll never be able to love me back. But that's okay because I'll always have our kiss. I'll have to be happy with that.

OOOOOO

A/N: So major angst fic. Wanna tell me what you thought?
