A/n- I own nothing you recognize!

Did you feel |c|h|a|i|n|e|d|?

Forever stuck within that house

Because of your former /m/a/s/t/e/r/

Everything around you reminded you of him

You never wanted to :f:o:r:g:e:t: him

(Oh no, how could you forget him?)

But that Blood-traitor left you in the hands

Of a new |m|a|s|t|e|r|

That despicable Harry Potter

(Oh, how you despised the boy)

;~;

How did you end up :h:e:r:e:?

In the middle of Hogwarts' /k/i/t/c/h/e/n/

Serving dinner to the lot of Mudbloods and Blood-traitors

You hated serving anyone but |P|u|r|e|b|l|o|o|d|s|

(You blamed Harry bloody Potter)

You just wanted to be back at :G:r:i:m:m:a:u:l:d: Place

Where you could be amongst your /p/o/r/t/r/a/i/t/s/

Of the masters that you love

But orders are orders even from a Blood-traitor

You must stay here no matter |w|h|a|t|

;~;

You heavehuffpuff under your breath

Because you're tired of being ordered |a|r|o|u|n|d|

The other House Elves think you're /c/r/a/z/y/

Honestly, you lost your :s:a:n:i:t:y: when he died

(Is that why you are at the edge of the lake?)

Without second thoughts, you plunge into the dark depths

Instead of sinking like a rock, you're

G

N

I

S

I

R

(Usually, House Elves can't swim)

|T|h|r|e|e| arms are wrapped tightly around you

You turn to face the thing that interfered with your :p:l:a:n:s:

;~;

From that day forward

You spend every day with the Squid

The more |t|i|m|e| you spend with him

The more you realize that he really :c:a:r:e:s:

For once in your /m/i/s/e/r/a/b/l/e/ existence,

Someone doesn't see you as just a House Elf

They saw your craving to be |l|o|v|e|d|

To be cared for

;~:

Guilt /c/o/n/s/u/m/e/s/ you

Ever since that |f|a|t|e|f|u|l| day

The squid with :e:i:g:h:t: tentacles saved you

Now, the memory fills your every thought

(You can't really be in love, can you?)

No, that would be disgracing his memory

You could never do /t/h/a/t/

He was your one and only |l|o|v|e|

No matter how :t:e:m:p:t:i:n:g: that Squid can be

It's a shame, really

The Squid truly loves you

;~;

No, you will always be |c|h|a|i|n|e|d|

By your love for your former master

A/n- When I first got this pairing from Mew for the M&MWP Challenge, I didn't expect to enjoy writing it as much as I did. So, your thoughts?
