A song-fic committed to a lovely, yet often ignored pair of the Harry Potter Universe.. (set in the time of Goblet of Fire)


Only Time


It's amazing. This dance, this song, it's all captured the two of us partners.
We're both rythmically entranced to the song. It would all seem so perfect...though it isn't.

Who can say where the road goes,
Where the day flows?
Only time...


Inside, I'm shivering with thought. This is our song, and yet this is our last dance. The party's ending, and she said we'd be through after this.

Internally, I remember only a day ago, we were together.

And who can say if your love grows,
As your heart chose?
Only time...


Then I remember just a few years ago, us meeting in a hall like this. It was from first meet that I found how great we were together.
We were both so connected, so spirited even as children.
From the start, we were great friends. I remember even as if it were yesterday us cheering each other at Quidditch practices.

(chants)

Who can say why your heart sighs,
As your love flies?
Only time...


Our friendship connected into a relationship. We were in each other's arms, walking together in the halls, gazing at the starry nights in the Astronomy Tower.

And who can say why your heart cries,
When your love dies?
Only time...

(chants)


In only one day prior to now that we grew so apart.

Who can say when the roads meet,
That love might be,
In your heart.

It was the day before the Yule Ball, that Alicia and I chatted. I don't know, I was emotionally off, and I kissed her.
...And I was caught.

And who can say when the day sleeps,
the moon still keeps on moving
If the night keeps all your heart?
Night keeps all your heart...


(extended chants)


I don't know why I did it. I simply lost hold of my conscious. I kissed the wrong girl, I know it.
It was when I kissed Alicia, that I parted from her immediately. Problem was, I'd kissed her long enough in the few seconds, to be seen by her.

Who can say if your love grows,
As your heart chose?
Only time...

It's as we party here at the Yule Ball, that we're somehow mentally disconnected. I notice right now, she's cold to me.
Still, I realize I deserve it. I trampled on her feelings, and trampled on her heart.
Now we're apart, even though we're physically here, together.

And who can say where the road goes,
Where the day flows?
Only time...


God, even as we dance, I miss her. Is it impossible to know if we're split apart forever? I wish there was a way to repair, if only...I can return to her?

Who knows?
Only time...


I'm not going to let us end like this. We had been so tied with each other only a day ago. I don't want us to end.

It's now, as the crowd of the party is parting, that I take Angelina aside.

She coldly asks me, "What is it, Fred?". I take her aside, and stare straight into her vast eyes. It takes awhile, while I'm caught in her eyes before I remember what to say.

I take a breath and lean towards her ear.

"Angelina, I love you," I whisper.

It's then, that I wonder, can we return to together?

Who knows?
Only time...

I'm into non-famous stuff like Enya's Only Time, and Fred+Angelina, so I wrote a songfic committed to them.

I hope you liked, though sorry for the quick speed of the story. I was kinda short on time.

Comments, review, and flames welcome.
