A/N: This is just a crazy one-shot that popped into my head. I had a lot of fun writing it. Enjoy!


Ugh, Draco was tired of it all. Of the people shipping him with that Mudblood Hermione. With people shipping him with that IDIOT Potter. And of people shipping him with Crabbe and Goyle. OH, OH, AND people shipping him with that self obsessed, shallow, Pansy Parkinson. He hated her. He hated them ALL. Why did people think he was in relationships with...all of them? Ugh. Draco was tired of it all. Had he already said that? Whatever.

But...there was one person to get him through it all. She didn't go to Hogwarts and didn't care about all the drama. She was kind...and BEAUTIFUL. Draco truly loved her. Who was she? She was…

Ariane. His beautiful Ariane.

Yes, she was an apple, and yes, she was the love of his life. Rivaling Veela or basically any relatively attractive person. She glistened red, perfectly shaped, and with such a sweet smell. It almost made him want to eat her, biting into crisp sweetness, juice dribbling down her fruity flesh...but no. Draco refused to let himself eat her. Because without her...how would he cope?

Yet one day, tragedy struck. After weeks of saving his precious Ariane, kissing her, stroking her, marveling at her beauty, that stupid Blaise Zabini took her away. Yes, he really did. Despite Draco's protests, Zabini threatened to eat poor Ariane. In the end, Draco did get her back, but not before Blaise dropped her. DROPPED HER. One the ground. HOW DARE HE! But what is done is done, so Draco picked up his beautiful Ariane, to find that she was BRUISED. BRUISED! Draco did his best to nurse her back to health. Talking to her to make sure she knew she was loved, skipping classes to tend to her every need...but to no avail.

She became brown and shriveled-the life sucked out of her. And then…

She was dead. An ugly rock that Draco cast away in anguish. It was for the best though. His father. His dear father would never allow their relationship. Oh well. People move on. And Draco has most definitely moved on…

To Paula. Paula Red.


A/N: Also, Ariane and Paula Red are actual types of apples. mwahahahaha! :P
