Chapter 11

Becky immediately noticed something different about Draco as he stood, ashen faced, in front of her. Strands of his silver-blonde hair dripped as they stood in the rain. Drops trickled down his cheeks and neck, and off of his nose. His eyes were the exact color of the sky above.

"Please, don't leave," he said softly. Becky nodded weakly. She didn't know how she knew, but she knew that Draco was different this time.

I'm sorry that I hurt you…

"Becky," he began, "I've realized what I have done…how I've hurt you…how I've hurt your friends. It was I who was wrong."

It's something I must live with everyday…

"I can understand if you could never forgive me. I don't even know if I can forgive myself."

And all the pain I put you through…

"You don't deserve to be treated as I treated you. You were right all along…I only treated you as an object. You deserve to be with someone that makes you happy, and respects you as you deserve to be respected."

I wish that I could take it all away…

"I would take all of it back if I could, please, believe me Becky! But the truth is I can't take it back, and that's hardest of all."

And be the one who catches all your tears…

"Please, don't cry, Becky. I don't want to upset you. If it was up to me I'd make it so that you'd never have to cry in sadness ever again. You deserve to be happy always."

That's why I need you to hear…

"I need you to hear this, Becky. I need you to know."

I've found a reason for me…

"I've found my reason…the one I've realized I've been looking for all this long time."

To change who I used to be…

"I've found the reason to change, Becky. To change who I used to be…who you used to know. "

A reason to start over new…

"I've found the reason to start over new, Becky. I want to show you that I can be everything you've dreamed of. I want to be the one who catches you when you fall…the one who listens when you need to talk to someone…the one who supports you when there is nobody else to turn to…the one who keeps you warm at night…the one to make you feel beautiful at every moment…"

And the reason is you…

"The reason is you, Becky, it's you. It's taken me far too long to realize it, but I finally have."

I've found a reason to show
A side of me you didn't know
A reason for all that I do
And the reason is you…

Becky stood there, her mouth open in shock, tears rolling down her cheeks and mixing with the rain water. Before she could respond, Draco grabbed her face and pressed his lips against hers.

She instantly knew he had meant every word he had said. His kiss seemed to repeat his speech all over. Her heart melted as she began to kiss back, grasping the back of his neck. All of the pent up desire she had held for him burst out of her. The rain continued to pour over them, both of them soaked. A low rumble of thunder rolled in the air, but neither of them noticed.

They finally pulled away, trying to catch their breath. They stared at each other, wordless understanding passing between them. They flung their arms around each other, not daring to let go.
