Draco

After I heard the heavy door shut jealousy flood over me at Kol's flirtatious comments, I stepped from the bathroom wondering around her room examining ornaments that were set up on her Cheshire oak draws.

I went to shove my hands in my pocket when my fingertips caressed a lace material tucked away in the corner, I pulled it from my right pocket observing the emerald green knickers. I smirked as I debated wether I were to leave them on her bed or take them with me. Take them with me of course.

I eventually made my exit frustrated at Kol for interrupting me. I waltzed down the halls when Parkinson made an appearance, if looks could kill she'd be dead.

I rolled my eyes and offered her a nod of acknowledgment attempting to continue walking past her.

"Draco baby, where are you going?" She asked with a needy tone, I rolled my eyes continuing to walk as she latched onto my side "to class." I replied bluntly.

"Have you told her yet?" She smirked as she held onto my shoulder, I widened my eyes and gripped her throat shoving her back against the wall in a threatening manor.

"You dare fucking say a word to her and I will end you Pansy!" I hissed in panic and anger. I pierced my eyes into hers as i tightened my grip making her squirm in attempt to shrug me off of her.

"But Draco baby, surely you haven't actually got real feelings for the mudblood? You need to tell her or I will!" She hissed as she chocked for air. I squeezed her neck one final time before stumbling back "you dare Pansy!" and I fled. Bile rising to my throat at the thought of Adeline finding out the truth, I couldn't...I can't hurt her after seeing her almost fucking die because of me? "Fuck" "fuck, fuck, fuck!!" I spat as I stormed to class clenching my fists in panic.

Adeline

My head snapped to the door as Draco strolled in looking furious, nothing but rage and hurt glimpsing in his deep silvers. Of course Professor Snape issued no sort of punishment, god forbid.

I attempted to catch his attention with my eyes as dragged his seat out from his desk behind me, he did everything possible to avoid my eye contact.

I furrowed my brow in confusion at Kol as he just replied with a shrug. I turned back around to face the front of the class. Throughout the duration of the lesson my mind was ticking away drawing up some conclusion as to why he had looked so stressed.

"Class dismissed!" Professor Snape declared as everyone gathered their belongings hurriedly to escape Severus's presence. I was determined to question Draco on what was wrong but before I'd had the chance he'd fleeted the classroom before I even rose from my chair.

"What do you thinks wrong with him today? The grumpy sod." kol questioned as he slumped his arm around my shoulder looking down at my worried expression.

"I have no idea." I replied with furrowed brows.

As the day progressed it was now dinner time, all lessons were fairly standard as Draco had been acting the same way all day, avoiding me at all costs. Eventually I pushed it to the back of my mind making a mental note to question him later.

We all waltzed into the great hall seating ourselves in our usual spot at the end of the slytherin bench, "omg guys I have big news I need to tell you before Draco gets here!" Bexley exclaimed in a hushed tone around the group. We all snapped our heads to look at her awaiting her 'big news'.

"So when I was running late to Defence against the dark arts earlier I witnessed Pansy pressed up against the wall by Draco and I could've sworn they were going to...to kiss!" She announced giggling. I gulped as a metaphorical grey cloud hung over my head. Bile rising to my throat as rejection and unhappiness flooded my head.

And there he was, that smug bastard gandering into the hall all polished and handsome as I sat gripping my knife and fork staring my gaze into my bare plate. "Ade you alright?" Kol questioned quietly ensuring not to draw attention.

I sat muted as Draco seated himself opposite me "what's with the sour face darling?" I heard his chuckle as he picked up his cutlery. At that I slammed mine down leaning over the table as I yanked the top of his collar pulling him forward "I'd rather have a sour face than be fucking sour inside." I whispered piercing my eyes into his as I pushed him back down onto the bench.

"What? Ade wai-

"Save it Malfoy!" I interrupted as I walked with my back to him, granting him with my middle finger without looking back.

Draco

Fuck, had Pansy already told her?

I need to find her and explain that it was all a mistake.

Adeline

As I fought back the tears threatening to leak down my flustered cheeks, I marched weakly as I wiped my nose with the hem of my shirt sleeve. Fuck him, I should've known better, involving myself with Draco Malfoy.

I heard a patter of heavy footsteps behind me, I didn't dare to look back as i quickened my pace turning around any corner I could find in this ridiculously large castle. I had no destination but anywhere Draco wasn't was perfect.

Adrenaline pumped throughout my veins as the sound of shoes on stone increased from behind me. I couldn't bare to speak to him at this moment, how dare he.

"Ahhh fuck!!" I screamed as I dropped to the floor, my temples burnt with a pulsating sensation as I roared cry's of pain into my palms. Every blood vessel in my brains felt as if they were exploding violently against my skull. "Make it stop...make it stop!" I shouted unintentionally as I massaged my temples crying screams into my arms.

I felt Draco's arms wrap around mine as he tried to bring me to consciousness, and there it was again...

"HELP ME!!" he screamed as two muscular men grabbed him by his weak arms "PLEASE DON'T LET THEM DO IT TO ME AGAIN...PLEASE!" He continued to scream. I still couldn't make his face, his clothes were torn and blood stained as he scuffed his shoes against the stone floor in protest. The basement looked familiar this time...like I've been there before. "ADELINE HELP ME!" He once again screamed...

I snapped back into reality as Professor Mcgonagall and Dumbledore crouched down shaking my arms, I gasped as my head returned to its normal state. I panted heavily as I looked at the floor in shock. Draco stood above the Professor chewing his lip nervously as he repeatedly questioned Dumbledore.

"H—he called my name?" I whispered as I sat in confusion. I watched Mcgonagall flash a look of concern towards Dumbledore as he exchanged the same look.
