Drcao paused, then flung open the window. He climbed up, and looked out over Hogwarts.
Standing at the highest point of the castle, the peaked Astronomy Tower window, he surveyed his surroundings like a king over-looking his subjects.
A chill wind danced around him, making the boy shiver, but not from the cold. From the adrenaline pumping through his veins, the thrill of what he was about to do.
//Should I be here?// He thought briefly.
Then, //It doesn't matter.//
A sad smile creased his features. //I've always wanted to fly.//
//And tonight, I will.//
//You know, you should be here with me. Maybe you could've kept me from flying.//
Draco laughed bitterly.
//But really, I'm flying for you.//
//I'm flying because I love you- will always love you.//
//All I ever wanted was for you to care.//
//I loved you. Like I've never loved another.//
//You broke my heart.//
//So now I'm breaking yours, Harry.//
And so, he flew. Like a shot bird to the ground, his body and his heart beyond repair, Draco lay broken, his soul a sad parody of a fallen angel, lying face first in the ground, the white flakes his tears.
