Little Hope

By Matt

There's a thin line between wanting to kill someone, and wanting to kiss them.

I can tell that from personal experience.

You see, there's this boy in my school, whose only purpose in life seems to be tormenting me and my friends… and looking good of course.

It's not that I couldn't ignore him, I was bullied all my childhood, I know how to do it.

The problem is that he keeps calling my attention.

Even when he's not trying.

I find myself looking at him between meals, when no one notices, or in the middle of class, while I'm supposed to be taking notes, thing that my best friend Hermione, doesn't find as amusing as Ron, my other best friend, who thinks that I'm obsessed with a girl and likes to tease me about it, because he has never seen me like this before.

Sure, I had a crush on this Ravenclaw girl when I was younger. Cho Chang was her name. It didn't last long, because then I started noticing him.

I find myself thinking about such weird stuff, like wondering about in what position he sleeps, with what shampoo he washes his hair, where does he get all that clothes he wears after classes that make him look so hot, and specially if he is seeing anyone.

I wonder that last one a lot, since there are so many girls that would just die to be in the same room as him, but he just doesn't seem interested.

And that's what gives me this stupid hope.

The stupid hope that somehow this wonderful, beautiful and stunning being might be gay or at least bisexual and might be interested in me… at least a little bit.

And sometimes the hope grows, because I find his eyes in the middle of the meal and he doesn't sneer or smirk, he just looks at me calmly, but like I'm the only one in his world and it takes my breath away. And sometimes in class I say something stupid and he doesn't bug me about it, he just lets out a secret smile while no one is looking, and I find myself getting this happy fluffy feeling inside my chest that makes me go around with a big goofy smile the whole day, because he thought I was funny!

So I just sit here and wait, because it's all I can do.

And I hope, and I wish, that someday he notices me like I do. That the signs I've read on him aren't wrong. That I'm not the only one whose heart jumps when we touch accidentally while walking by the hall on our way to class.

And I'll keep waiting, because some day he might notice me.

And I'll be there, ready to be his.

A/N: I'm thinking of writing a companion fic, in Draco's POV... and then maybe another one in Harry's POV or in third person... what do you think?

Please review :)?.
