Narcissus

Chapter 2: 21 Things I Want In A Lover

By Magsambis

A/N: Ok, I decided to add another chapter. This is a totally different thing from Chapter 1. Whatever happened there never happened here. This song is also by Alanis Morissette, and I totally agree with the lyrics. Like before, the lyrics are in brackets, and the story is in normal writing. Here goes:

{Do you derive joy when someone else succeeds?

Do you not play dirty when engaged in competition?

Do you have a big intellectual capacity,

But know that it alone does not equate wisdom?

Do you see everything as an illusion,

But enjoy it even though you are not of it?

Are you both masculine and feminine?

Politically aware? And don't believe in capital punishment?}

Ron had always wanted a girlfriend. But here he was, 7th year, with no previous experience in girls. He had always shrunk back in the spotlight while he watched Mr. Perfect Harry Potter be worshipped by girls. Some psychos online had even started a religion!

{These are 21 things that I want in a lover.

Not necessarily needs,

But qualities that I prefer}

In his entire being, there were only two girls he had ever liked, and Harry had gotten both of them. One was Fleur Delaquer (A/N: I know I spelled it wrong!). Harry had gone out with her about a week, but dropped her for Ron's other crush, Hermione. He was still dating her.

{Do you derive joy from diving in,

And seeing that loving someone can actually feel like

freedom?

Are you funny? À la self-deprecating?

Like adventure? And have many formed opinions?}

So, during those lonely nights while everyone was off with his or her date, Ron had made a list. Of the 21 things he wanted in a girlfriend. He had been looking allover Hogwarts for a girl that fit the requirements. He had finally found her.

{These are 21 things that I want in a lover,

Not necessarily needs, but qualities that I prefer.

I figure I can describe it since I have a choice in the matter,

These are 21 things I choose to choose in a lover.}

This girl was perfect. She had long, midnight black that stopped halfway down her back. Her eyes were a warm chocolate brown, always twinkling. She was perfect. But, naturally, she barely knew Ron existed. He was just known as "Harry's Best Friend" to her, probably.

{I'm in no hurry, I could wait forever.

I'm in no rush, cuz I like being solo.

There are no worries and certainly no pressure.

In the mean time, I'll live like there's no tomorrow.}

Ron felt kind of bad liking her, because he knew for a fact Harry liked her too. Heck, who didn't like her? Harry had even asked her to a dance, but she'd refused. Smart girl.

{Are you uninhibited in bed? More than three times a week?

Up for being experimental? Are you athletic?

Are you thriving in a job that helps your brother?

Are you not addicted?}

Ron sighed. He was beginning he was in LOVE with her. Yep, Ron was falling in love with Cho Chang.

{Are you curious and communicative?}

A few corridors away from where Ron was, Cho was in Defense Against the Dark Arts, which she called DADA. She wasn't really paying attention, though. She was daydreaming, and doodling names in her notebook. Well, more like one name: Ron Weasley.

The End.

A/N: Well, that's it. I think I'll add more chapters/songfics eventually. Maybe do the whole Alanis Morissette album. (She rocks!) Possibly might throw in a few other artists. It all depends on my mood, and YOUR reviews!!!
