Crush – David Archuleta
Harry glanced up from his lemon and lime ice cream to meet Draco Malfoy's eyes across the half empty hall and Harry felt a blush flare into life across his cheeks. They stared at each other for a few moments until Malfoy scowled at Harry and turned back to his own dessert. Harry continued to stare for a few more moments before dropping his spoon into his bowl, his ice cream only half finished, and hitched his bag onto his shoulder.
"Harry? Where are you-"
Harry didn't respond, only walked away. At the Great Hall doors he stopped and looked back at the slytherin table. Draco Malfoy was sat, determinately not looking at him. But his spoon was frozen halfway to his mouth and his eyes seemed to be fixed on nothing at all.
Harry stayed for a few moments, watching the sunlight bounce off blonde hair and make porcelain skin glow. He managed to tear himself away by pinching himself on the arm. His day definitely looked like it would just get worse.
Harry let his feet lead him to the lake and flopped under his favourite tree, letting the heat of the sun lull him into an uneasy sleep.
Harry was woken by that inexplicable feeling of knowing that someone is watching you. He jerked awake and found himself face to face with Draco Malfoy.
"Why do you insist on watching me so intently, Potter?"
"Why do you watch me back?"
"I asked first."
"I asked second."
"That makes no sense, Potter."
"Look, Malfoy. I think we both know perfectly well why I watch you. What happened the other night-"
"That night never happened, Potter. I'm leaving."
Harry watched him go for a moment before leaping to his feet and yelling after the blonde.
"Do you ever think, when you're all alone, all that we could be? Where this thing could go?"
Draco stopped and turned to stare back at him.
"There is no 'thing' to go anywhere, Potter. You're delusional. Now, if you don't mind, I'm trying to walk away."
"Don't deny it, Draco. I can see the way your breath catches when I look at you. You're just holding back, the way you always do when something really matters."
"Shut up! Shut up, Potter! I don't want to hear this. I don't have to hear this," Draco yelled back, turning to begin his angry storm back to the castle.
"You followed me, Draco! Remember that. You followed me!"
"It's just a stupid crush."
Draco's whisper was so quiet that Harry could barely hear it.
"But we can make it into something more."
Draco turned his face to look at Harry and Harry was surprised to see tears glistening on his cheeks.
"How have you done this to me? All I ever think about is you."
"I could ask the same thing."
They didn't move towards each other and kiss desperately in the fading light. But nor did Draco turn tail and run. They just stood in silence, watching each other, knowing that this was so much more than a crush.
OOOOOO
