Some Days

by Cheeky Slytherin Lass

Some days, she breaks your heart more than she heals it.:: In which loving Pansy isn't always easy, but it's enough for Daphne.

A/N: For the Pairing up the Character Drabble Competition (Week 4, Pansy)

"I don't know why you put up with me, darling," she says, pressing her body against yours and placing a chaste kiss upon your jaw.

If you're honest, sometimes you wonder the same.

She's still arrogant, still cruel, still vindictive. Poison still drips from her lips with every other sentence.

Worst of all, she isn't yours, not completely. You see the way she still looks at Draco whenever he and your sister stop by. After all these years, she's still pining for a love that never was.

Some days, she breaks your heart more than she heals it. Some days, she is more monster than lover.

But she is yours, this broken, imperfect woman. Even if it's just for this moment, you will still cling to it.
