Disclaimer: The genius behind Harry Potter is the lovely Ms Rowling, not me, I'm afraid.
The fourth freeverse – again, written in a hurry. Sorry. :p
The prompt was end.
Remember to R&R! (:
.sometimes, you really hate being labelled as
((the bad guy))
.
draco malfoy's son, they whisper,
that one – the blonde.
(the slytherin.)
.
always, always the bad guy.
.
it isn't fair, you think -
it's not your fault you were born to
(the fucking malfoys)
it's not your fault, it never was.
.
.but, dear boy -
don't you get it?
people label you
(for things beyond your control)
people blame you
(for things you haven't done)
people don't see as scorpius
they see you as
(that malfoy boy)
that's just how the world is:
/harshcruelunfair/
.
but just because it's dark
doesn't mean you can't shine
.
((but if everyone hates you, what's the point?))
.
silly boy – it's not the end
haven't you seen al potter
smile and try to make friends?
(but, you idiot, you just brushed him off)
or rose weasley
sneak those slightly-too-long glances at you?
(which you never noticed)
or that the lysander guy
was only just teasing?
(not picking on you, as you thought)
.
so open your eyes
(the malfoy-grey ones)
because you're not the only one
living in the shadow of your family
.
((it's not that bad; it's never that bad))
