Summary: Sometimes fear is the worst even for someone who is so brave. Harry´s POV.

 

ooOoo

„Tell him,“ Ron said to me.

“Tell him,” Molly insisted once she saw my pain.

“Tell him,” McGonagall advised as if it was so easy.

But I can´t. I just... can´t.

Maybe I´m cowardly and not so brave as everyone seems to think but... there is fear in me, too much fear, and I tremble like a leaf from only the thought that I may have lost him because of my foolish words.

So I can´t tell him now nor could I in the future. I can´t see the light because there is only dark for me. Dark in his arms that can´t be mine...

Summary: Continuation of Three Simple Words. Harry´s POV.

ooOoo

“Tell me,” he growls and I close my eyes tightly. There is it. I failed to hide it from him and now it´s over. Why couldn´t I just leave and mourn in peace? Why does he need to humiliate me even more?

I can feel the touch of his hands on my fists, I can feel his breath, his scent. My eyes are closed but I can imagine every wrinkle in his face, every hair black as night.

“Tell me,” he repeats and I shake my head. Then I sigh tiredly, open my eyes, locking them with his.

“I can only show you if you like...”

Summary: Continuation of Three Simple Words and Moment of Revelation. Harry´s POV.

ooOoo

So I show. He can see it through my frightened eyes – my fears, my dreams, my attachment, my... love. He´s gazing on my memories and thoughts and I can guess the exact moment when he realises what precisely he see. I close my eyes again and try to turn. There is no place I can hide. There is nothing left in me. But he doesn´t let me go and I shiver under his touch.

“Look at me,” he whispers and I´m desperate to not submit to his command. But he forces me and I must.

“There is something I must show you, too... Harry.”

Oh, this was so lovely... You managed to tell such a complex story in just three hundred words and the image you painted of Harry's long -and fruitless- struggle to avoid confessing his feelings to Severus and thus ruining their friendship was both slightly bitter-sweet and achingly romantic. Beautiful from beginning to end, pat. Kudos on a job well done my friend. :)

Thank you very much for your kind words;-) At first I wrote only the first part but then there was a story, because I coulnd´t let it so sad;-))) Thank you again, pekeleke, I´m glad you like it.
