What do you give, to the boy who has everything?

From birth, Draco Malfoy was spoiled rotten.

If he wanted it, he got it. A single whine of "Mother!" or "Father!" and the thing was his.

So when Draco became obsessed with a certain Harry Potter, His parents knew that they were in for a ride.

His world is almost too good to be true

Most of the wizarding world worshipped the boy who lived. Word spread quickly when he was starting his first year at Hogwarts.

"Father! I'm going to make friends with Potter!" Draco told his father like it was a fact.

When that certain boy turned down his handshake and Draco Malfoy hadn't got what he wanted for the first time, he was determined to be this boy's worst nightmare.

----

Years passed, the war was won and Draco Malfoy felt like he had enough of being Potter's enemy.

He stayed away from Potter, and spent most of his time in the library or his dorm. Draco had just wanted to have a normal, boring year. But, it seems Potter wasn't having that.

"Malfoy!"

"Malfoy!"

'Ignore him, keep walking' Draco's mind screamed at him.

"Are you avoiding me?" Potter yelled from behind Draco.

Suddenly, Draco whipped around and planted his feet hard.

"Can't you just leave me alone?"

"I'm afraid I can't, Malfoy"

What do you say when he's starting to let you in?

"Draco-!" Harry yelled from across the great hall, jogging over to the table. Harry had started eating at the slytherin table so often, no one seemed to notice anymore.

When Harry started coming to the library and even the dorms with him, Draco wondered why Harry even hanging out with him in the first place.

And you see he's better off without you.

Draco knew that Harry was too good for him. But Harry had stayed anyway.

Sometimes I'm so senical and self conscious and sometimes I see that I'm bringing him down.

Draco heard the whispers.

'Why is He hanging out with death eater scum like Malfoy?'

Draco knew that he was bringing Harry down. Harry still stayed.

I stand in the mirror, hands in empty pockets, and wonder why he even wants me around.

Draco didn't know why Harry kept him around. And, somehow, Draco had started to fall for the little things about Harry.

I just wish there was something he needs, some beautiful thing I could be to keep him from seeing the worst in me.

Harry wanted nothing, it seemed.

He was the boy who lived, the savior, for gods sake. He could have anything he wanted. He could have anyone.

So why did he hang around Draco?

What do you do when the boy's always busy

During breaks, they didn't talk much. Harry still not wanting to remind himself of his lost owl, who was one of his best friends. He was.. busy, you could say, cleaning up grimmauld place.

And you're on the side killing time 'til he calls?

Draco knew this. Still, each break he waited for a letter or anything from Harry.

We both got friends, but I'm no good at keeping mine

Pansy.. Blaise... Crabbe.. Draco couldn't bear to talk to them anymore. Crabbe always looked at him like Goyle's death was his fault, and Draco believed it.

As soon as Harry and Draco started hanging out, Pansy and Blaise just full on ignored Draco. Because "if he can make friends with the savior, he doesn't need us."

He's got his people when he needs to talk

Harry though, still had his friends. Ron, Hermione, Neville, Ginny, and most of Gryffindor tower. Harry still went to Draco with his problems.

I just wish there was something he needs, Some beautiful thing I could be.. To keep him from seeing the worst in me.

Draco didn't think he was beautiful. With the mark on his arm, he agreed with what most people said about him being scum. But whenever Draco seemed to even mention it, Harry came swooping in and telling him that he wasn't the absolute scum of the earth and that...

Harry thought he was quite beautiful.

So what do you give to the boy who has everything..?

So it seemed, The boy who lived did have everything. But Draco, he had his heart.
