(The edge of the forbidden forest)

You raised an eyebrow at the platinum-haired boy in front of you, trying your best to act angry. 'Seriously?' The word came out as a soft and loving sigh instead of the cold accusation you had planned for, and you looked up, attempting to resume your cool demeanor.

A pair of watering grey eyes met your gaze, the softness in it almost pouring out. You could stare into those gorgeous, stormy grey eyes forever. They threatened to overwhelm you and lore you into an abyss. It was your universe, full of stars and lighted up by the determination and ambition of a Slytherin, though at the current moment it was filled with reproach and hurt.

'Draco...you are a pure blood. A MALFOY. I'm a muggle born. Our paths...should never have crossed.'

You felt, more than saw him wince. It hurt you to see this usually confident and smug boy so upset and unstable. It hurt you even more to know that this was all because of you.

You took a deep breath and started over: 'Look Dray, you should just go on with your life the way it was before I came along and confiscated your existence. It would be easy...just forget me.'

Your voice was unwavering and carefully measured, yet every word stung like a sharp claw digging mercilessly into your heart: you could lock yourself into a room and curl up into a ball, crying until the tears turned into blood; you could stab yourself repeatedly with a knife tipped with poison; you could crumble and be destroyed...but you would have to stay strong for a little bit longer —— for Draco's sake.

'Y/n...Don't you get it? I want you! I don't care. I don't care...'

But he does. The whole world is against you. your love story was forbidden, was hidden, was tested again and again with every turn by harsh trials.

In daylight, he was always the boy who hang out with his pure blood cronies and bullied others, who wouldn't give a shit for a muggle born such as yourself. You were always the quiet and self-composed Slytherin muggle born with the best grades and who was not to be messed with.

But at night, you snuck out to the Astronomy Tower, to the room of requirements, or simply to Draco's huge room with the soft four poster bed. You fell hard for each other.

Neither of you would have been able to imagine this before you started dating, but now that you had: everything seemed to be perfectly logical. You wanted each other. The feeling was mutual. What could possibly matter more?

The answer: your family. EVERYTHING.

Well, here you were——but someone had to make the first move. So you let go.

'No, I don't get it. Goodbye, Malfoy.' You turned away.

Two years of sharing flirty winks and knowing smiles down the hallway. Two years of leaving and finding notes and small gifts under pillows, on desktops...between the yellow pages of a Transfiguration text book. Two years of secretly longing and silently wanting...Two years of everything yet nothing, concluded by two simple words: 'Goodbye, Malfoy.' It took everything for you to walk away.

In another time, another place, another life: You would find him, and make sure that he was yours. But not this time, not this place, not this life. Your vision blurred, but you kept walking.

~~THE END~~
