You see him and you can't help but

light up

Even though you know damn well that

he's forbidden

he's gorgeous

he's out of your league.

x

At first you tell yourself that

he's just a crush

he's just eye candy

you'll move on because you were never stuck.

But, deep down in your lioness heart

you know

you know that you've fallen for him.

But you also realize that it will never work

because you're a Gryffindor

and he, he's a Slytherin.

The space in between them never felt so far apart.

But love is supposed to overcome all boundaries, right?

Too bad that he doesn't love you back

and he never has

and he never will.

Because, compared to her, you are

n-o-t-h-i-n-g

She's all

blonde and slim and rich and

jaw-droppingly beautiful.

x

She's a golden princess.

And he's a golden prince.

While you're just a ruby bystander.

And, truthfully, who in the world would ever pick ruby over gold?

x

You know that you're not good enough – not even close

(Or are you just way too good?)

Either way, it doesn't make a difference.

You'll never be with him because you know it's wrongwrongwrong

and your head has always been stronger than your heart.

Or so you hope.

This is my first freeverse so I hope I did alright. I've been really enjoying reading other people's so I decided to try one out for myself.

The pairing, Alice/Lucius, has never been done before. It was discovered by mew and so is a part of Mew & Mor's Weird Pairings. Please give mew a mention if you decide to use this pairing. Thank you!

Thanks mew for betaing. I was going to think of something creative to give you but I think having Lucy-Baby in this fic is enough, lol.

:D
