Title: I walk my days on a wire
Author: felixfvlicis
Prompt: draco100's prompt 16: Fanatic
Character(s) / Pairing(s): Draco / Harry
Rating: PG
Word Count: 100
Notes: Unbeta'd.  Even in Draco's dreams, Harry is fanatical about him.  Inspired by Hozier's Cherry Wine.

Draco shudders as fury’s waves crash in the depths below him.  It’s been six days.  He focuses on the steady drip, drip, drip of water coating his thigh -- flesh burning with contemptuous whispers.  He inhales, eyes fluttering closed, surrendering to nothingness.  Is this what it feels like to die?

He lingers for a while, ignoring the way his fingers tremble against the cold stone floor.

“I came back for you, Draco.”

“My knight in shining armor, eh, Potter?  You always were quite fanatical about me.”

He wakes to a chasm of fog.

The cold greets him like an old friend.

Ooh, how deliciously dark!

I really like the details of the cold stone floor and the fog.

Poor Draco. Now I want to make him soup. *cuddles him*
Beautifully descriptive, hon! <3

I know, poor thing. He's been through so much. I want to give him all of the hugs.
