I've been gone for 3-4 months. I'm not sure exactly how long. The last time I was here, there was 141 pages of fanfics.
I am asking you guys to do me a favor... when you rate my story, you don't even have to comment, just leave the names
of good/half decent/mildy related to/even horrible Draco/Lucius/Narcissa/Snape/Pansy (I saw a Pansy one once.) stories.
Those are really the ones I'm interested in, and I don't want to wade through literally thousands of stories to find them.

Now. *sniffs again* WAHHHHH! I missed you guys! Ok, composing myself. Breath in, breath out. Ok, onto my story,
which is based on Everclear's "You Make Me Feel Like a Whore".

Wasted Emotion

by Badtz-Maru
 
 
 

It's cold and the air is damp with a certain atmosphere of hate and jealousy, as it always is when
the two are together. The classroom is quiet, and only the occasional tinkling of beakers break the
unnatural calm that has settled over them.

They all speak in hushed whispers, and even Snape is not as quck to anger today. Even the very
stones of the classroom seem to watch their movements. There is something there. Something that
is crawling to the edge, and there is only hours and minutes and seconds until it reaches the
breaking point.

The air and talk hum of loathing and love in one breath. They are next to each other as a sadistical
punishment. His malevolent grey eyes dart back and forth, from the potions in front of him to her
and then quickly back. He wraps his robe tighter around him.

"Here," she passes him their shared knife. He pauses before taking it from her. He likes it when
she talks, though it is strained and only tugs at the tension already in the air. His fingers slip, and
the knife clatters to the floor.

She glares at him, then reachs for it herself. He sneers charactaristically at her, snatching it back.
He hates her. He loves her. She has again, reduced him to nothing.

He trembles with fury, at her for being so complacent, at himself for being so nervous around her.
She was not worth his troubles, not worth the wondering and the anger and the wasted emotion.

He hates her, and hates himself for loving her. He wants nothing more than to have her, to own her.
His mind wants nothing more than return the pain, self doubt and questioning she has caused him.
He wants her to realize how superior he is. How superior he has always been...

He stabs with the knife, and the thought is shattered.
 
 
 

A/N: I'm still frightened by D/Hs. :) But remember, add me to your favorite authors and/or author alert
so I feel super cool. :) Does anyone actually have me on their fav story/author/whatever list already? I
randomly started getting reviews last week/month/whatever...

Disclaimer: "YMMFLAW" belongs to Everclear. HP and all HP characters belong to J.K. Rowling. The
story belongs to me, but actually, not really, because I think EC owns part of the plot, it being a song-fic
type thing and all...

And also, huge favor to ask. I read a Draco fic once, and it was really good and I positively fell in love
with it. I don't remember the title or author (I know it wasn't by PikaCheeka, Kate S., or Draca). It was
a pretty short story and I remember Draco being one of those coffee house types hanging around smoking
and meeting Hermione after several years had passed... ARGH! I really wish I knew which fic it was... If
any of you have even the faintest idea of what the fic was called or who it's by, please tell me. Thanks. :)
