acidpop25: "Learning to Hate," PG-13
Title: Learning To Hate
Author: acidpop25
Rating: PG-13
Prompt: 15, Glow
Date: 07/01/06
Pairing(s): Harry/Luna
Warning: character death
Summary: There was something about Harry... he glowed, glowed so brightly.
I always liked Harry; he was such a sweet boy, and he had the most beautiful smile. I loved it when he smiled at me, and he always had a smile for me. Even when things got bad. And there was something about Harry... he glowed, glowed so brightly, I felt like a moth. I could never stay away.
After my seventh year, he kissed me for the first time, and it... it was good. Not amazing, not perfect, but good, and I liked it, and when I bounced back into the living room Hermione smiled a little and said she was glad for us, and when Ginny next saw me she looked a little sulky and said I was glowing like it was some sort of dirty word.
The first time we made love, Harry was awkward and shy, but I didn't mind because I wanted him and it felt good, and once he got used to it and he didn't just glow, he blazed, and I think I could have died crying "Harry, Harry, Harry."
Two weeks later, Remus Lupin was killed, and something... some part of Harry shut down, he was different, it wasn't him.
A week after that, Ronald was taken, and the glow went out of Harry's eyes. And.... and I couldn't bring it back. All that brightness... gone.
That was when I learned to hate.
