Y/n's POV...
I eyed as his hand gently rested on her hips, their gaze strongly intertwined with each other's. Everything about that made me mad- but everything about them also screamed; deeply in love...and all I ever want for him is to be happy I can't be mad about that, I just wish it could've been me...who made him happy- I did once...
~FLASHBACK~
An Year Ago... (Year 6)
Y/n's POV...
Me and Draco sat by the Black Lake, hand in hand and humming our favourite song, Draco had just finished with a whole meltdown about the stuff he had going on at his home due to the return of the dark lord. He kept on insisting that we stay away from each other now so that I am safe I refused to leave him alone at his lowest so now we sat in calm just being with each other.
Next Week...(Year 6)
Y/n's POV...
He barged into my dorm mad and frustrated, he started pacing around as I kept trying to ask him what happened, after a few minutes he took a deep breath and sat down in front of me annoyed, and then said "Oh my fucking god, you won't believe what I found out this weekend, I have to do my task with Eleanor with fucking Eleanor ugh! I hate her-" he sighed as he fell backwards on my bed.
Him and Eleanor they are 2 of the people at this school who hate each other with all their hearts, but I did hear they use to be close friends as kids, besides Eleanor has been nice to me despite me being Draco's Girlfriend the guy she hates, and also despite me being a huffulepuff and her being a Slytherin. I straddled him, and gave him kisses everywhere,
"Don't worry everything's gonna be fine alright? I'll be here for you however long this takes" I whispered, he slowly calmed down and smiled, he sat up hugging me into his chest, "thank you"...
2 weeks later...(Year 6)
Y/n's POV...
Our whole friend group including all of Draco's friends and some of my Hufflepuff friends decided to throw a campfire during a long weekend, everyone was all already here it was dark outside now, and the moon shined beautiful, as the wind flew around us, regardless the fire kept us warm, I had just gotten there as the realization hit me that Draco wasn't here yet, with furrowed brows I walked to Blaise as he laughed with Hannah he definitely had a crush- "hey, Blaise any idea where your boyfriend is?" I asked,
"Oh I think we were last making out in the great hall" he replied and chuckled "Seriously though last time I saw him, was in the great hall for breakfast this morning" he shrugged, as he returned to his conversation with Hannah.
Some part of me wanted to look for him so that's what I did, now this was gonna be a workout, I kept walking around everywhere and couldn't find him, as I was about to walk back out thinking he might have reached the campsite, I heard crying from a nearby hall, to make sure that person was ok, I walked towards the sound with each step the voice got louder I peered down the hall still hiding a little bit as hesitation kicked in, my eyes adjusted to the dark as I saw Eleanor breaking down as her right hand clenched her left arm, and she continued to wail in pain, Draco stood in front with a worried expression as he tried to comfort her, he tried but he wasn't very good at doing that to others I wanted to step in, but I also felt like it wasn't my place to be there, it felt awkward if I had intertwined, so I walked back out hoping she'd feel better.
The whole camp night went amazing except the fact it was without Draco. Soon we all went into our tents to sleep, the spot beside me stayed cold as I tried not to sleep waiting but after a bit, only a few seconds away into deep slumber, the tent zipper opened as he stepped in, a smile grew on my face, "Hello beautiful" he said with a cheeky smirk, "hey" I chuckled "where have you been I missed you" I said, as he got comfortable under the blanket taking off his shirt and pants and only in his boxers, "I am sorry I just had some work to do you know" he slowly embraced me against his warmth "oh yeah how's that going" I asked moving my hand along his torso, "as good as it can get I guess I don't know" did Draco's task scare me yes but I knew I couldn't do anything this would all come to light eventually, and I didn't wanna be a part of it I just wanted to be there for him, "and how's Eleanor? Is she ok?" I asked, His movement against me paused for a second, before he answered "She is fine for all I could care" he said shrugging, he didn't wanna talk about it?...I guess that's fine, "hmm well I hope you guys are doing well then" I said burying my head in his chest " of course I am doing well when I have you" he chuckled tickling me and kissing me everywhere, merlin we sat for who knows how long as we continued chattering each other to sleep-
5 months later...(Year 6)
Draco's POV...
Me and Eleanor had stopped bickering every single second, we were friend-ish-, Me and Y/n sat in the great hall with my friends, everyone laughing around as Eleanor made fun of the dumb things I used to do when we were younger, all I did was roll my eyes, everyone only laughed more at my expression. A sudden warmth grew in my chest, as my head automatically turned to hers, that laugh was beautiful...Eleanor's- no I meantI meant Y/n's! Of course I meant Y/n's- obviously...
3 weeks later...(Year 6)
Y/n's POV...
Things are not getting any better around here like I thought they would. We lost Dumbledore and that devastated me what would we do without him, and the comfort I needed in this situation wasn't with me since Draco'd been distant after Dumbledore's death I didn't know if that was because him and Eleanor were the new appointed head boy and head girl or it was because of the recent incidents. What had happened that night was mystery to me, I'd heard many things like it was Bellatrix who had done it, it was Snape who had done it or...it was Draco, but I refused to believe that, Draco could never kill anyone...never...right? Stop thinking like that of course he couldn't it's Draco.
Either way I miss him and I need him right now to hold me close and tell me everything's gonna be ok because everyone I know is so scared and I want- no I need comfort it could be false but even just for a little bit I crave it. And ever since all this went down none of the houses really interact with the Slytherins anymore it doesn't feel great to be away from my friends but it's almost impossible being around them without being stared at.
Anyways I was waking to my next class and I heard a voice...a voice that kickstarted my heart like an old busted car, Draco walked down the hall talking with Theo. I waved and smiled at him as we made eye contact...he...he just walked away, he didn't even smile I know he saw me that hurt- Why did he look at me with those eyes...those guilt full eyes, did he actually kill- no... no!
I didn't wanna sink in anymore doubt, I was gonna have to talk to him! I looked for him everywhere after our classes for the day were done. I asked Crabe and Goyle but all they said was Draco told them not to tell me fine - I asked Tracy, she said she'd seen him and Eleanor heading upstairs a few minutes ago. If they were working did I wanna interrupt them?...No I had to I couldn't hold it off any longer.
I started upstairs swift light steps so I don't lose them and after a bit of jogging and speed walking I could see them walking but right before I could call out to them my sweaters knit got stuck to a railing as soon as I finally tugged away from it and looked up they disappeared...ugh- good thing there was only one turn down this hall I walked down and turned just to see them get engulfed behind the walls...room of requirement? Never been inside one since well year 5, it wasn't the best year but anything's better than right now. As soon as I took 3 steps closer just wanting to see Draco and Eleanor instead of the door closing it reopened, I took no time in waking in as it closed behind me. I looked around me we were in some sketchy abandoned shop looking place interesting, then my attention panned to Draco and Eleanor in the far right end of the room as Draco sat with his hands tangled in his hair and in a low voice crying Eleanor sat beside him patted his slowly, It felt wrong for this but I hid and wanted to see what was going on since clearly he wasn't going to tell me.
"Eleanor I feel like shit!" He sobbed sniffing, as she comforted him"it's ok" I am lost?- " no it's not! she smiled and waved at me today it was a stab right at my heart, I love her! I really do! But just not how I used to...fuck!-" then he continued "how do I tell her I have fallen for someone else she was nothing but kind to me she was everything a guy could ever want what is wrong with me?!" My taped up heart cracked further....and with his every sob and our every memory together running through my mind my heart shattered more and more. That was it for us?! a short sob escaped my lips as both of their heads snapped towards my direction I wasted no time with the Disillusionment Charm and was invisible. They walked right past me as I kept my hand slapped over my mouth Draco stopped in his steps for a second too long as he'd strode past me, soon they decided it was best they leave. There was no point in staying, I got up as well and followed right behind Draco,
"I am so sorry you had to find out like that darling...make sure to get the door after you" he whispered just loud enough for me to hear as he walked out wiping his spilling tears... he knew-
Present...(Year 7)
Y/n's POV...
I was at a celebration, for our victory over the dark lord, I should be celebrating right?...but there is nothing to celebrate for if the person I fought for slipped away from me, I sat there on the corner seats and watched as he danced with her, I eyed as his hand gently rested on her hips, their gaze strongly intertwined with each other's. Everything about that made me mad- but everything about them also screamed; deeply in love...and all I ever want for him is to be happy I can't be mad about that, I just wish it could've been me...who made him happy- I did once...
