The Right Thing To Do { Draco Malfoy }

31- Back at Hogwarts

"Thank you," I said and sat back down next to him. "Your turn," I said and covered my eyes as he changed.

"You're adorable," he said and sat back down next to me.

He kissed my cheek again and pulled me into his arms.

"I love you," He said and rested his head on me.

"I love you too," I said and kissed him.

We arrived at Hogwarts and we stayed behind in the train for everyone to leave. We didn't want to run into anyone we knew.

We opened the compartment door then checked to see if anyone was there. He nodded at me and we grabbed our things and left.

I hopped out of the train and saw a flood of Hogwarts students waiting for the carriages. We put our things on a large cart then headed over to the line of students.

"Nora?" Someone said and I turned to see Ron, Harry, and Hermione.

"What do you want?" I asked rudely. I wanted them to just leave so I figured if I was mean, they'd stay away from me. I felt something on my shoulder and noticed Draco had put his arm around me. I looked up to see he had a large smirk on his face.

"You're back? I thought you two were leaving for good," Ron said.

"I thought the two of you were working for Voldemort now," Hermione added.

"None of your business," I said and crossed my arms in front of my chest.

"None of our business? You both are dangerous. I wouldn't be surprised to see that you are his little spies," Harry said and he stormed off with Hermione. Ron stayed behind.

"I still can't believe you lied to me. And now you're dating him?" He said and looked up at Draco who was smirking like crazy. I felt pity for Ron.

"He's a bully and I bet he's only using you for one thing. You are stupid to be going out with someone like him. You deserve better," Ron muttered and began to walk away.

Draco stormed to him and grabbed him. "You talk to her again and I will turn you inside out, you hear?" He said.

"Ron!" Harry and Hermione came running over. Draco threw Ron on the ground and grabbed my hand and pulled me with him.

"Why did you have to do that?" I asked.

"I want him to stay away from you. He's toxic," Draco said to me.

"Toxic? Says the one who just threatened his life!" I stopped him.

"Me? I'm the one you're getting mad at? You have got to be kidding me!"

"Whatever, Draco. Let's just go," I said and we got onto the carriage.

We only just got here and he's already in a foul mood.

When we arrived, we went straight into the great hall.

"Students. Welcome back to the second half of the school year. You will notice that your teachers will be more paranoid and protective of you all. Also, I'd like to announce that the Winter Ball that has been organized by a group of students here at Hogwarts will take place a month from today. Tickets will go on sale next week. Enjoy your dinner," Professor McGonagall said and stepped away from the podium.

We sat alone at the end of the Slytherin table.

"Draco? We thought you left," Crabbe and Goyal said as they approached us.

"Yes, I'm back. Now leave us," Draco hissed and didn't even look up at them.

The two left without saying another word.

"You know, you could be a little nicer," I pleaded and took a spoonful of mashed potatoes and gravy.

"I don't have time for that right now," He said and looked down at his empty plate.

"Are you going to eat anything?" I asked.

"I'm not hungry," He pushed his plate away.

"You should eat a little something," I said.

"No."

"Just one biscuit."

"Are you my mother?" He questioned and finally looked up at me.

"Please. For me?" I asked and his expression softened.

"Fine," He took a biscuit from the table and ate it.

"Mud blood lover?" I heard Pansy called and I mentally rolled my eyes.

"Here we go," I whispered to myself.

"I thought you were leaving and never coming back!" She whined. "At least you're back, Draco," She said and sat next to him. "Oh my gosh, Evanora, is that a hickey?" She asked loudly, causing some heads to turn. I quickly lifted my hand to cover it. Did the concealer already wear off? This is so embarrassing.

"Shut it," I mumbled.

"Looks like Evanora really is a whore," Pansy laughed.

"She is not!" Draco slammed his fists on the tables, startling everyone near us. "Leave, Pansy. Go find someone else to bother," He barked and Pansy quickly stood up and hurried to find a new spot.

"Thanks," I said and he half-smiled.

"Anything for you."
