I am a Riddle | Draco Malfoy, 18+

O n e,

" And make sure not to be late this time." He muttered, causing students to snicker around the classroom as my cheeks flushed red in embarrassment, " Great," I rolled my eyes, staring down at the books in front of me, sucking my lip in between my teeth as Luna shoved me to the side, " You see, it's not very appropriate to be late for class, miss Ravenclaw,"

I shook my head at her, a chuckle left my lips, "Next time, Lovegood, next time,"

" Missed me?" Hermione greeted as she seated herself across the table, and I could practically hear Luna's breaths hook as her eyes roamed over the brown-haired girl joining us. I rolled my eyes at her, shoving her to the side as I reached over the table, grasping Hermione's hand in mine, " I haven't been away long enough from either of you, to-,"

" Stop it,"

My best friend caught her neck to mine, eyeing me down with a scowl, sending me a death glare. I slapped my hand over my mouth, trying not to laugh at her grimace, '' What did I do this time, darling?'' I smiled, seeing how her eyes fluttered to Hermione's - the two of them has been lurking around all summer in thought that I wouldn't find out - it truly is adorable,

Luna slightly rolled her sights at me as she looked down to her plate, and just like every other year, the chatter around the table consisted of stories and tells about the past summer, everyone mumbling into each other's words, seeking to get their voice and story heard,

I found myself deeply in my thoughts - thinking about my mother and what she told me before I left for school - how my father was deemed to return, and that was all my summer consisted of - being home, worrying about the future,

" What's wrong with you?" Hermione urged as I clocked back to being - I sensed my features twist in pure snarling at her words, her eyes moved down my figure, '' Why are you sitting, like that?''

I looked down at my arms, lounging on the table as a frown spread onto my temples, '' What?''

Hermione's whole front turned into an amused smirk as a trace of soft giggles left her lips, '' I'm messing with you, silly.'' She grinned, revealing her perfect teeth, '' How was your first day back?'' Her eyes shot between Luna and me, noticing how Luna bit her lip in uncertainty,

'' Leiah got detention,'' She blurted out with a shy smile,

Hermione's complete profile turned to mine. and her jaws dropped as I stirred my bench back, rolling my eyes ay her, '' Don't even start that, with me,'' I staked her. I knew that she had some sort of speech prepared in her mind, lecturing me of how improper and misleading it would be to other student's if the heir of Ravenclaw herself gets detention - I've heard it all before - a million times,

Both she and Luna watched, puzzled as I stood up, flinging my bag over my shoulder, '' Where are you going?'' She huffed, '' Don't tell me you're getting all mad and grumpy now because I can't take another one of your-,''

'' To detention,'' I spoke, shaking my head at both of them, before turning around, marching out of the hectic dining hall,

I rushed through the hallways, knowing that I'm late for detention - Why am I always fucking late?

My breaths hitched in relief as I walked through the doors, strolling up to my seat,

" He's looking for you, mudblood." A cold, husky voice spits behind me, making me flinch by the sound of it - nearly suffering my breath as I meet blue eyes, his blue eyes - fuck - what is he even doing here?
