Engaged to a Malfoy

Expecto Patronum

Chapter 48: Expecto Patronum

"Make it a powerful memory," Harry said. "The happiest you can remember. Allow it to fill you up."

"Expecto Patronum." I tried, but nothing happened.

"Keep trying, Y/N." Harry said with a smile.

I smiled weakly then continued trying.

This is just very stressing.

1. Malfoy and I aren't at good terms

2. I stayed with the Weasleys this holiday break ( which I am very thankful for ) but I miss my mom and dad.
It's never Christmas without them.

3. I hope I pass my OWLs exams.

Then I thought of my happiest memory ever.

"What's that for?" I asked.

He didn't reply. He dipped the cloth on the water then gently tapped it on my hand.

I blushed. He never does this kinds of things before. It's such a sight!

"Does it still hurt?" He asked.

I shook my head. "Not anymore."

After he's done, he blew gently on my skin.

His breath is cold and it smells like green apples.

"Thank you." I said with a smile.

"Better?" He asked then flashed a smile.

He lay his head on my lap, making me comb his soft hair using my fingers.

"Never better."

Then he fell asleep.

"Goodnight, sleepyhead. I love you." I said very softly so that he can't hear.

I closed my eyes. "Expecto Patronum!"

Then I heard gasps in awe from everyone.

I opened my eye then gasped at the sight of my Patronus.

"A dragon! That's amazing, Y/N!" Harry said, gleaming at the Patronus.

Hermione went to my side. "Dragon, huh?"

"What's that supposed to mean?" I asked.

"Well," she grinned. "Know someone with the name that means dragon?"

I thought for a moment then blushed.

Draco.

"Stop that, Hermione." I said.

"But that's still cool you know," she said then raised her wand. "Expecto Patronum!"

Then her Patronus is an otter.

Hermione smiled. "Cool."

"Remember that the Patronus can only protect you when you stay focus." Harry said.

I turned to Hermione. "What's your happiest memory?" I asked.

She shrugged. "The time we solved the Philosopher's Stone case, and the time that I met you guys."

I hugged her. "Awww!"

We both let go. "Who's that girl with long blonde hair?" I asked.

"Oh," Hermione turned to look at the girl. "That's Luna Lovegood. Odd, but very sweet."

I walked to Luna. "Hi, I'm Y/N Rosecharm."

She smiled. "I'm Luna."

Her voice is so dreamy and soft.

"So, cast a Patronus Charm?" I asked.

She shook her head then raised her wand. "No, but let me try."

"Expecto Patronum!" She said then smiled when the Patronus revealed to be a hare.

"Lovely." I said.

Then we noticed the chandelier shaking and the lights flickering.

I jumped in surprise when the glass shattered, revealing the entrance.

My eyes widened. Oh no. She knows.

Harry and the little Gryffindor boy walked to examined it.

That's when I heard her annoying voice.

"Bombarda Maxima!" She exclaimed then everything blasted, revealing us.

We're so in trouble.

Then my heart broke when I saw Draco clutching Cho's robes as he pushed her to Umbridge.

He had a smug grin on his face, but then faded when we made eye contact.

I swear my heart is pounding so fast right now.

I saw his eyes mixed with hurt, confusion, and anger.

He let go of Cho then walked away.
