Counting Backwards

Because, actually, destruction is the most beautiful thing of all... These are the countdowns until everything falls apart. *Various pairings, eras, ratings, etc. Mostly M&MWPs.* Read it all or only what you like! It's like the anti-/ynusly/, my other major 100-word drabble collection. R&R, thx & plz. *Requests welcome*

It was a lost love, James decided.

He had grown to befriend Justin, his Muggle Studies professor. They had grown unbelievably close. Even Justin had appeared to recognize the spark between them!

But, no, they wouldn't happen. Justin's mates, Hannah and Ernie, had told him he shouldn't. "James is too young." "James is a Potter." "James is Harry's son." "James is a wizard."

These days, Justin looked at him with a sad longing, but James was glad to be leaving Hogwarts. It meant he'd never have to entertain the idea of them again.

He wouldn't, despite how badly it hurt.

For autumn midnights, as requested with the prompt "averted." This is one of my all-time favorite pairings… I hated writing this! So I just chickened out and wrote an AU to my ending of "Let the Light In." ;P
