Vindicated

Draco Malfoy walked miserably down the crowded street. His mind had been plagued for weeks. He was addicted. He was like the bull; attracted to anything red. It caught his eye everytime it flashed by. He'd never been in a serious relationship with this girl, but he knew, she was just so right for him.

Hope-dangles on a string
Like slow spinning redemption
Winding in and winding out
The shine of which has caught my eye

He spotted her. Walking towards him down the street. Not noticing he was there. She was so close, yet so far. She was forbidden fruit to him. The shadow of Harry Potter. His enemy's best-guarded treasure. Yet, this only sucked the lonely Slytherin in even more.

And roped me in
So mesmerizing, so hypnotizing
I am captivated

Draco Malfoy shoved past the small woman, knocking her down. He hadn't meant to knock her down, but he had. A look of anger flashed over her face and her cheeks went just as red as her mesmerizing locks. She stared in shock for a moment. Draco offered to help her up; but she refused. She got up on her own and shoved past him, clipping him hard in the shoulder. His senses froze at her touch, although harsh. He stared after the strong spirit that stalked out of his reach.

I am Vindicated
I am selfish
I am wrong
I am right
I swear I'm right
I swear I knew it all along

His feet moved on their own as they followed her. She was only a few strides ahead of him. So close. So far. His innermost desire was right infront of him. Yet, he could not have her. She finally stopped and turned around, knowing that he had been following. Her eyes were soft, auburn pools that looked at him with what looked like grief. Then she glared, spun around, and continued on her way.

And I am flawed
But I am cleaning up so well
I am seeing in me now the things you swore you saw yourself

Draco was frozen. Her emotions had changed so suddenly it hurt. He could feel his heart breaking, the heart that she had helped him to discover. He didn't want to let her go. He was the very reason that he had learned to breathe. It was for her that he didn't follow in his father's footsteps. Everything he had become was thanks to her. And now she was stalking away. He followed her with his eyes as she ran into the arms of Harry Potter.

So clear
Like the diamond in your ring
Cut to mirror your intentions
Oversized and overwhelmed
The shine of which has caught my eye
And rendered me so isolated, so motivated
I am certain now that

She was Harry Potter's Fiancee. Ever since seventh year they'd been dating. But he'd known this all along. And he hadn't cared. Neither had she.

I am Vindicated
I am selfish
I am wrong
I am right
I swear I'm right
I swear I knew it all along

He ran a shaking hand through his hair as he watched her kiss him. He watched her grope her in the street. He was filled with fury and disgust as she didn't object to his touch. How she could do this infront of him and everyone else without a doubt or slight feeling of guilt at all. He knew that she secretly loved him. Or so he hoped. For he'd had known her for what felt like his whole life. She'd loved him first. Her place was in his arms, not that of his enemy's.

So turn
Up the corners of your lips
Part them and feel my finger tips
Trace the moment, fall forever
Defense is paper thin
Just one touch and I'd be in
Too deep now to ever swim against the current
So let me slip away
So let me slip against the current
So let me slip away

The 'happy' couple apparated. Draco couldn't see himself, but he knew he looked exactly how he felt- Broken. And for the first time in a long time, He returned home alone. It felt so very cold now that the spirit of his love was absent. A cold hand was squeezing his heart. He felt bitter. She would never return; She had chosen The Boy Who Lived over The Slytherin Prince. Oh, but how did he miss her...

I am Vindicated
I am selfish
I am wrong
I am right
I swear I'm right
I swear I knew it all along

He lay in his bed, alone. Her scent still alive on his pillows. He closed his eyes painfully and tried to sleep. A tear escaped from the corner of his eye. 'Twasn't long until the warmth of a slender finger wiped it away. His eyes snapped open. "Ginevra..."

Slight hope
It dangles on a string
Like slow spinning redemption...

I hope you liked it! I got bored and wanted a break from working on my original fanfic, so I decided to try my hand at a SongFic! Please Please Please review and leme know what cha think! . Someone who read this told me that Vindicated means a feeling of being free or released…well…Draco did feel free when he was with Ginevra…you have to look at it in a different way..hard to explain..but I always wanted to make Draco weak at the knees for a girl. Remember, you can always calm even the fiercest of beasts...You just have to know how.
