He hated her laugh; her smile; the thought of her being happy. 
Then he saw that very same smile slowly fade, and decided he didn't hate all that anymore. If anything he found himself wishing to see her smile again.

She hated his presence; his piercing gaze; his very existence. 
Then she saw him walk away, and decided the idea of losing him wasn't a joyful one. If anything she found herself wishing he would just stay. 

༺ ✧ ༻

I held my breath as I prepared myself for the inevitable. 
For him to voice what he'd always claimed for years.
For him to say that a life without my presence was a dream come true ever since he saw me in our first year.

"Because I have no reason to stay" his limbs stiffened as he tried to avoid making eye contact, taking me by surprise. 

"You don't have one simple reason why you-"

"Yes Grey, I don't have a simple reason why I should stay," the rest of the world seemed to simply melt and dissolve around us cause all I saw were his grey eyes. 
And right there right then a piece of me broke inside, like my whole world split into two.

I could feel my self scream on the inside, tearing my limbs apart one by one. 

𝘊𝘢𝘯 𝘐 𝘣𝘦 𝘺𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘴𝘰𝘯?

My entire being seemed to scream, however, my lips remained sealed as Draco Malfoy appeared to be millions of light years away from me, yet still between my finger tips for perhaps the very last time. 

And then he turned around and simply walked the other way. Leaving me to my conflicted existence that seemed to defy all sense of logic by wishing he'd turn around and stay. Wishing he'd find a reason. Wishing he'd let me be his reason. 

༺ ✧ ༻

They say friends to lovers is something so wholesome.
But they don't realise how sacred we are, 
Enemies to lovers,
A person who knew me for all my flaws, 
Acknowledged all my scars,
Voiced out all my ugly imperfections, 
And yet,
Loved me anyway.

One Time Thing | Draco Malfoy by ShallowMeii
16 parts Ongoing
The Malfoy name had always been synonymous with power, with wealth, with an unshakable sense of superiority. Love, romance-those were trivial distractions. Draco had been raised to believe that emotions were a weakness, that attachments were dangerous, that desire was meant to be controlled, not surrendered to. And yet, here he was. The air in the dimly lit room was thick with the scent of whiskey and something floral-her perfume, lingering on his skin like a ghost. The silk sheets beneath him were still warm from where she had laid, her absence now a space that made his chest tighten in a way he didn't want to name. His fingers curled into the fabric, a desperate attempt to anchor himself, to pretend like this was no different than the countless other nights, with countless other women. But it was. He had told himself that being with her-for one night and one night only-would be just like all the others. A brief way to silence the war inside his mind, to drown in something other than regret and expectation. An escape from the weight of his name, from the legacy that bound him in chains. But Ophelia Evans was not like the others. She was a poison, seeping into his veins with every breath, every whispered word, every touch that lingered too long. A drug, intoxicating and lethal, something he knew he should resist but couldn't bring himself to. He had told himself it was a game, that he was in control. That he could have her once and walk away unscathed. He had been wrong. Now, she was everywhere-burned into his skin, embedded in his thoughts, a quiet ache he could not rid himself of. And it was too late. His body tensed, his mind scrambling to suppress the unwelcome emotions clawing at his ribs. He was a Malfoy. He was supposed to be untouchable. But as he exhaled shakily, running a hand through his disheveled hair, he realized the truth. She had undone him. And he wasn't sure he wanted to be put back together.

"Scared of what he'll say?" His hot breath was vexing, in both agony and tone. My eyes narrowed at his assumptions that I cared enough. "Aren't you scared of what I'll do?" My eyes casted down to the wand he didn't see slide up. It was pointed at the firm hand on my throat. "You've always underestimated me, Malfoy." Each word dripped like honey, causing his smirk to twist. A cat and mouse stuck in tormenting circles. His gaze dropped to my lips, a heat igniting in the silence between us. - Where there is smoke: there's fire. The same smokey eyes that watched her too closely all these years. Lillian Petunia Potter, named after her mother, had to fly under the radar and hide in the shadows while her infamous twin brother basked in the hero limelight.

"Must be tough, everyone loves you, don't they? So goddamn perfect. They don't see it but I do, Potter. I can see straight through you." "And what do you see, Malfoy?" "That you're a mess, aren't you?" She stared at him, rivalling his own expressionless mask. "You're the first person to say that to me." "Well of course," he swung a leg, pacing around her lazily. "Everyone is too busy seeing the hero, but when you hate someone enough, you see their flaws, their weaknesses." Her mask fell and she smiled to herself. "So you hate me?" She said, playfully. "Of course, isn't that what we do, hate each other?" The smile grew enough for dimples to appear. "I guess so." "So yes, I hate you." "I hate you too," she smiled. Draco couldn't help it, his lips tugged slightly at the corners while laughter stayed restrained in his glimmering eyes. "Good, I'm glad that's established," Draco announced. "We hate each other." --------------------------- A miserable childhood of neglect, Harper Potter needed someone to teach her the ability to love in order to overcome the darkest wizard of all time. She just wasn't expecting that someone to be the guy who taunted her every quidditch match. Featuring. Female Harry x Draco
