So, this is a special chapter, released specifically in recognition of Tonight Alive's album release yesterday. This is a song on the album and as soon as I heard it I thought this would fit Harry and Draco as well as Draco and Nathanael. There are no videos on Youtube, so if you go to Spotify or something the song is called, you guessed it...For You. So, enjoy!

Draco

Today was the day. The day of the Hogwarts Talent Show, the day he would sing in front of the whole school. He buttoned the last button on his shirt, then turned to Nathanael.

"Can you see my binder?" Draco hoped Nath couldn't. Because if he could, the whole effing school could. 

Nath just shook his head, shoved his wand into Draco's hands, then shoved him onstage. Draco stumbled a bit before steadying himself centerstage. Professor McGonall motioned for him to start singing, so he did.

For you I'm not afraid to make mistakes
And you have never asked me once to change
Whenever I'm in doubt you put the fire out
And we, we never need to compromise
But if we ever did I'd take your side
Not all are great at love, but I do my best because

For you I would breathe underwater
And for you I would fly without wings
And for you I would run like the sun chases the moon
Cause everything I do is all for you

For you I have nothing left to ask
Cause you have always been my better half
If love is the reason we're alive you are my only air supply


After singing halfway through the song, Draco paused before singing the chorus a second time and looked around the room. Granger's jaw was on the floor, Blaise's eyebrows were in his hairline, Weasel looked mad, Pansy was crying, Nath was grinning, and Harry looked so completely in love, Draco was surprised no one was shouting it out. 

For you I would breathe underwater
And for you I would fly without wings
And for you I would run like the sun chases the moon
Cause everything I do is all for you


If your love could take me higher
I don't mind if I do
Cause your eyes are wide on fire
Bet our lungs will run right through
And the tides will surely rise up
And I'll just look at you
I don't mind if I do

For you I would breathe underwater
And for you I would fly without wings
And for you I would run like the sun chases the moon
Cause everything I do is all for you


I would breathe underwater
And for you I would fly without wings
Because of you I can do all that I set my heart to
And everything I do is all for you

At the end of the song, Draco was breathing hard like he had just finished a Quidditch match. The room was silent for a moment, making him nervous, but then the room EXPLODED with cheers and applause. Draco grinned, bowed, and left the stage. Halfway to the Slytherin table Harry caught up to him, tirled him around to face him, and then kissed him to wild applause. As Draco melted into Harry's lips, he could feel Harry grinning against him.

This chapter is a bit shorter than most, but I have had swim team, musical practice, violin, and choir on top of my friend setting me up with someone. So, yeah. Updates will not come as frequently, but I'll try to post when I can. Au Revoir!
