And you say, 'When will she notice me?'

And you feel, like you're not afraid

And you say, 'When will she notice me?'

And it feels, like a hand grenade

I wonder if she notices me. I know I notice her. I can't stop myself from watching her whenever she walks into my presence. She has some sort of mystifying power over me. I don't think she notices me though. I wave to her when I see her, but she just keeps walking on, past me and over to the others.

She's just so beautiful! Oh, how I wish she would notice me. I know there has to be some way in which I can get her to notice me, just once! I wish I could just spend one night in her presence, to be with her out somewhere. Even if it was just a small date out in Diagon Alley. Anything would do it for me; I just want to spend one day with her.

Sirius tells me I'm too old for her, but I do not believe in that. It does not matter what the age difference is. I love her, and that's that. There's nothing in the whole world that could change it. I will love her no matter what anyone says. Sirius is always teasing me. He tells me that's all I think about, that's all I ever talk about. He's always saying to just give it up, because she'll never notice me; he says he doubts she remembers my name. But I know he's just kidding about that last part. It still makes me think though. Does she notice me?

She's not only beautiful, but she's nice, she's funny, and she's very intelligent when she uses her mind. She has always been helpful to people, even Severus. Her friendliness intrigues me. It's just so benevolent; she'd do it for anyone. She's very entertaining when she uses her metamorphmagus skills; she's always changing her facial features to resemble funny things, like a pig's nose. Though she can be rather clumsy sometimes, she can be very clever when it comes to strategical planning.

Ah, how I love that woman. I would do anything to be with her; I wish I could just be with her for one night. Just one night! I just wish to taste her lips, to feel her hand in mine, to share a moment of love. I would give anything for just one moment.

I act like I'm not afraid to mess things up with her, to ruin our friendship. But on the inside, that's the one thing I fear most. I do not want to do anything that would put our friendship in jeopardy.

I wish I could just share one moment, one tiny moment of something, anything, anything at all. I would give my life for it, that one moment. That's all I ask for, one moment of something. Just please, if I were to die tomorrow, my life would end without my biggest wish being fulfilled. But if I could just be with her, or even just have a conversation with her, my wish would be granted. I would die knowing my one true wish, my one true desire, had been fulfilled.

If only I could have that one moment...
