Longing

Title: Longing
Author: felixfvlicis
Prompt: draco100's prompt 11: A secret admirer
Character(s) / Pairing(s): Draco / Harry
Rating: PG
Word Count: 100
Notes: Unbeta'd.  Eighth year.  Draco is content to keep to himself.  Harry's fighting a losing battle.

A piece of parchment brushed Draco’s fingers as he flipped through the pages of his potions textbook.  He huffed and unfolded the crinkled paper.

‘The soft rose that blooms against your lips is

as striking as daybreak pushing against the clouds,

a new beginning.’

He rolled his eyes and pushed the parchment aside.

Across the room, Harry pushed his glasses against the bridge of his nose, lower lip pinned between his teeth.  He watched Draco until the afternoon sun began its descent, harvesting the deepest layers of the earth, nourishing the seeds of his longing.

One day, Draco would know.

Draco, don't be such a surly stick in the mud!

:/

:D

I, too, wish he wouldn't keep to himself so much.

oh the pining!

[felixfvlicis]

Indeed. I love pining. This prompt was perfect for it.

Eeep, Harry, you great big romantic!

Come on, Draco. You should know that the correct response when someone writes you a love poem is to flutter dramatically and clutch your heart!

Excellent drabble!

Thank you! I'm so pleased that you enjoyed reading.

Harry just can't seem to let Draco go. I suppose surviving a war will do that to someone.

Maybe Draco will come around. Eventually. Luckily for him, Harry's pretty patient.

Draco, you idiot. *smacks him*

Although I bet Draco holds on to that parchment and reads it when he needs a pick me up. ;)

[felixfvlicis]

I bet so, too. He's not fooling anyone, though Harry's a bit dim these days, looking at the world through rose-colored Draco glasses.
