PART 5

Part 1 Part 2 Part 3 Part 4 Part 5

The next morning, as the sun barely touched the horizon, an air of tension hung heavy over Hogwarts.

The entire Hogwarts were summoned to the Great Hall at the break of dawn by Dumbledore, their faces etched with confusion and dread. The emergency gathering in the Great Hall was a disorienting awakening for all the students.

Dumbledore drew attention to himself and started "You must be wondering why I called you this early. Well, I regret to inform you that the Ministry has fallen this midnight." He delivered the shocking news with a heavy heart, and the collective gasp of disbelief from the students reverberated through the hall, mingling with the anguished cries that erupted, shattering the once-peaceful atmosphere of the school.

Screams were echoing all over Hogwarts.

"But, you shall not fear. Hogwarts will always keep you safe." he added.

The lump in Y/N’s throat made it hard to breathe, and the thought of her parents' safety left her paralyzed with fear.

"And one last thing.” Dumbledore cleared his throat “Miss Y/L/N, I will be waiting for you at my Office." he addressed to Y/N. 

Dumbledore's words hung in the air, and as her name was called, she felt a chill of apprehension deep in her bones. Y/N's legs trembled, and she took an unsteady step backward, the enormity of the situation threatening to consume her. 

As she took a step back and her body collapsed into someone's arm. Just as she felt herself faltering, Draco's strong arms enveloped her, providing both a physical and emotional anchor. He was holding her.

"Are you okay?" his concern was evident in his voice and it was as if his presence alone had the power to steady her trembling world. Draco always managed to be the one to pick her up when she fell down. Both in a metaphoric and in a literal sense.

Nonetheless, she gathered her strength and made her way out of the Great Hall.

"Y/N!" someone was shouting her name. She turns back to see Pansy and Daphne. Their eyes were filled with concern. Their deep-seated connection, forged over a lifetime, provided a sense of unity and strength. Y/N's tears flowed freely as she sought comfort in their arms, releasing the emotional burden that weighed on her.

"Hey, it's going to be okay." Pansy assured.

"My father- The ministry- What have they done to him?" Y/N was sobbing.

"Ssh, they wouldn't dare to touch your father. We will walk you to Dumbledore's Office now." Daphne said.

Y/N entered into Dumbledore's Office with heavy eyes. Dumbledore was sitting in his Office with Professor Snape. Heavy emotions continued to cloud the air.

"Miss Y/L/N, I am sorry about the Ministry. First of all, I want you to know that your parents are safe now. They are being held in a safehouse by Order." Dumbledore said.

Y/N sighed in relief.

"You, however, will not be taken back to them. Not just yet. It is their wish that you stay in Hogwarts. Hogwarts is believed to be safer." just after Dumbledore finished his sentence Y/N started to cry again.

The weight of the world pressed on Y/N's shoulders as she listened to the news of her parents' safety. Relief washed over her, yet her heart remained heavy, knowing she could not immediately reunite with them.

"Me and the other Professors, we will do everything in our power we can to keep you safe." Dumbledore promised.

"However, there is one other thing we need to tell you about." Snape interwined.

"There is a specific reason your parents want you to stay here. Besides, your safety." added Snape.

This was all getting too much.

Y/N looked at Professor Snape with tears in her eyes. She demanded an explanation. However, it was getting harder and harder to speak with a lump in her throat.

"You-know-who thinks that, as a Minister of Magic, your dad has been hiding a Secret." Dumbledore explains.

"What kind of a Secret?" Y/N asked.

"The Secret that is thought to be hidden by your father is a unique and ancient magical ritual or spell that could potentially strip You-Know-Who of his dark powers. This powerful enchantment has been kept hidden for generations, known only to a select few within the Ministry. Voldemort, in his relentless pursuit of absolute power, has learned about the existence of this spell and believes that it holds the key to his unrivaled dominance." Snape explained.

"Is there such a thing? Please tell me the truth." Y/N said stuttering.

"We don't know yet, Miss Y/L/N." Snape answered.

"However, what matters is that you have to promise us that you will stay in Hogwarts no matter what happens. Your father's orders. Given by the Ministry. An authority that we can't go against." Dumbledore added.

"They are in a safe house which is protected by the Order. However, if things go wrong-- we need you to keep that promise." Snape insisted.

Dumbledore's promises of protection offered a glimmer of hope, but Snape's revelation added another layer of complexity to the situation. Y/N's tear-filled eyes searched for answers, her voice barely a whisper as she grappled with the truth.

"I have to go to them. I have to go to my parents." Y/N cried.

She was torn between her desire to protect her family and friends and her longing to be with her parents during these dangerous times. The weight of this decision was palpable, with Snape's stern words and Dumbledore's imploring gaze emphasizing the gravity of the situation.

"Now is not the time for your childish act Miss Y/L/N. You are a leverage in this situation. We will keep you safe but you have to promise us that you'll cooperate." Snape said.

"What about them? What if--?" Y/N's words were cut off.

"There are no what-ifs from now on. We need you to promise that you won't take a step outside of Hogwarts grounds, Miss Y/L/N." stated Dumbledore. 

Y/N's final promise was made through a choked voice, her emotions now a complex blend of resolve, fear, and an unshakeable determination to protect her parents.

"Yeah Professor, you have my word." Y/N said the thing that needed to be said to keep them quiet. They would be too much of a noise in her way, anyway. She was going to get to her parents. She needed to know if the secret actually existed. And if the secret did exist, then she would go over the world to save her parents and friends from Voldemort. There was no other choice for her.

The decision to lie, despite the overwhelming desire to ask for their help, was an agonizing one.

The plan was simple. She was going to go to the safe house first. She would apparate from the Forbidden Forest. Then, she would talk to her parents. It was the first step.  She had to get to her parents. However, the missing piece of the puzzle was the exact location of the safe house. Without it, her plan remained incomplete. The frustration of not knowing where her parents were hidden added to the urgency of her mission. She needed answers and she needed them now.

She needed someone she could trust, someone who would never betray her. And the first person who came to her mind was as shameful as it was, was Draco. One last favour. She would ask  for one last favor from him and after that, she would be long gone from his life.

Y/N decided to go to Slytherin Common Room where she was sure of finding Draco.

She entered the common room without hesitation. She catch a glimpse of The Sacred Seven sitting in front of the fireplace. Their usual spot. However, she couldn't see the blonde guy's figure. As she approached them, she also noticed that Theo was not there, as well.

"Hi, guys." Y/N smiled at them.

"Hi, Y/N, how are you?" Daphne asked.

"I am fine, thanks. I was actually wondering if you guys know where Draco is. I have to talk to him." Y/N said.

"Oh, he went back to Malfoy Manor." Blaise answered.

"What? But he was here this morning?" Y/N stuttered.

"Narcissa, wanted him back at the Manor. He got her letter this morning." Blaise explained.

"Oh, okay then. See you around guys." Y/N walked away without waiting for a response.

Draco left without even saying a goodbye? Not even a simple goodbye? Just when she thought there were no other pieces from her heart to be broken, Draco managed to break the one last piece. Again. The pain was a familiar one, but it cut deeper than ever before, leaving her questioning whether he had ever truly cared for her at all. It was a painful echo of past disappointments, leaving her feeling broken once more.

As she exited the Slytherin Common Room, she felt helpless. There was not even a person in the Hogwarts that could help her.

She headed to the Astronomy Tower to clear her had.

As she was walking through the corridors of Hogwarts, she couldn't help but heard a familiar voice. A voice she knew all too well.

"How about tonight then?" Graham asked to his friend who was walking next to him.

Y/N turned around to look at him.

Ever since, Y/N started to date Draco, she put a distance between them as per Draco's requests. Graham was soon to realize it.

Them being broken up didn't matter now. Y/N and Graham were still ignoring each other. It had been a silent, mutual understanding between them, acknowledging the unspoken boundaries they now observed.

After she turned to him, Graham looked her in the eye for a second and then turned his head away.

"Graham?" Y/N adressed him. He looked at her her. "Can I talk to you for a second?"

"Um.. yeah sure, Y/N." he said.

Graham's friend left and now they were alone.

"Thought you were not speaking to me, anymore." said Graham in a firm tone. "Heard Malfoy broke up with you, was it worth to throw our friendship away, tho?" Graham's voice cut through the tension between them, his words hanging in the air like a weighty reminder of the choices that had led them here. Y/N felt her heart ache as she considered his question.

The breakup with Draco had come at a steep cost, not just in terms of her romantic relationship but also the friendships that had been strained in the process. "I-I..uh, I am sorry Graham." Y/N said.

"It's okay. I am sorry about the Ministry by the way." Graham answered.

"Yeah. About that. I need to ask you something." Y/N stuttered.

Graham nodded.

"I am going to ask this only once. And I need you to tell me the truth. You are the only one I can trust." Y/N explained.

"What do you mean? How about your friends? How about The Sacred Seven?" asked Graham, he was confused.

"The Sacred Seven, they.. their loyalites are complicated. But this doesn't change the fact that they are my friends." Y/N explained.

"Oh, okay. What is it that you wanted to ask then?" Graham asked.

"You know my parents are in a safe house now. I figured your dad knew it since he is my father's best friend. And he must have told you. Do you know where the safe house is?" Y/N demanded an answer.

As soon as he heard the question Graham's face paled as Y/N pressed him for answers, and his initial response was one of denial and confusion "No, Y/N, I don't. How would I know? Why would I know?" he answered.

"How would you know? Come on, Graham. Your father must have known the plan even before my mother. My father tells him everything. And he also works for the Ministry. My father trusts him more than anyone." Y/N insisted.

"I can't help you with that and you know it." Graham was looking for a way to escape from this conversation.

"FOR SALAZAR'S SAKE. I HAVE TO GET TO MY PARENTS. NO GRAHAM. YOU AND YOUR WHOLE FAMILY KNEW EVERY SINGLE DETAIL FROM THE START. YOU AND YOUR FATHER ARE THE ONLY ONES MY FATHER TRUSTS WHEN IT COMES TO ME. HELL, I AM SURE THEY EVEN WANTED YOU TO KEEP AN EYE ON ME. YOU WERE NOT WALKING BEHIND ME, YOU WERE FOLLOWING ME, WEREN'T YOU? YOU WERE MAKING SURE THAT I WOULDN'T LEAVE HOGWARTS."

Y/N stopped for a second to breathe. That's when it hit her. Graham was keeping an eye on her ever since Voldemort was talked to be back.

"We were all sure that you would figure it out. But we didn't expect it to be this soon." Graham finally answered. "You not speaking to me because of Malfoy didn't make it easier, tho." Graham added.

She just looked him in the eye.

"I can't go against my father's or your father's orders. You are staying here." He was caught between his loyalty to his own family, who had been entrusted with the plan, and his friendship with Y/N. 

"I am begging you, just give me the address." Y/N said with tears in her eyes.

"How will you go there? By apparating? Don't you know apparition magic leaves traces? They would hunt you down in a second. You would hand yourself and your family to them." he cautioned.

"You don't understand. I have to find them. Or this nightmare won't be over soon." Y/N was basically begging him.

"This is no time to be a hero. Your magic can't compete with the dark magic. They would take you down in a second." Graham was determined to keep her in Hogwarts.

Y/N's eyes burned with anger, and she felt betrayed by Graham's refusal to help.. Why can't he just give the address?

"Talking to you was a mistake. Golden Boy. Go make your parents proud by keeping me here." Y/N was clearly hurt.

"Someone had to talk some sense into you." Graham answered.

Y/N was overwhelmed by a mix of desperation, anger, and heartache. Her urgent need to find her parents, coupled with the perceived betrayal of Graham's involvement in keeping her at Hogwarts, fueled her frustration. The weight of the situation and her sense of powerlessness left her teetering on the edge of despair.

The air was thick with tension and unspoken regrets as these two former friends found themselves on opposing sides, each driven by their own sense of duty and loyalty.

Soon, Y/N decided to walk away from Graham. "Don't you dare follow me!" she threatened.

"Don't make me." he answered.

She found herself at a crossroads, with no alternative but self-sacrifice. She didn't care anymore that apparition left traces of magic. There was nothing else she could do. She was going to apparate to 12 Grimmauld Place, and then ask for her parents' location. This was the headquarters of the Order of the Phoenix, and her parents were under the Order's protection. She was going to do this the hard way.

The weight of the situation had pushed her to a breaking point, leaving her with no other choice.

She was going to wait until midnight to make sure neither Dumbledore, Snape nor Graham could catch her.

Midnight descended like a heavy shroud upon the Forbidden Forest, enveloping it in an impenetrable darkness. She knew she had to escape to 12 Grimmauld Place to find her parents, but the dense magical aura of the Forbidden Forest weighed on her. The forest's ancient, untamed magic played tricks on her senses, and she felt like an intruder in a world where she didn't belong.

Clutching her wand tightly, Y/N closed her eyes and concentrated on the incantation to apparate. She visualized the old tapestry-covered walls of 12 Grimmauld Place, the place where she would get the much needed information. Y/N's brow furrowed in frustration as her magic was thwarted.

She tried again and again, but each time, the enchanting barrier around the Forbidden Forest held her captive. Forest's magic was a living, breathing entity that fought against her every attempt to escape. It whispered secrets and ancient incantations in languages she couldn't comprehend, leaving her disoriented and trapped.

It was in that moment, as the forest's magic pushed back against her, that Y/N realized something was terribly wrong. She had underestimated the mystical might of the Forbidden Forest, and it had sensed her desperate attempt to break free. As Y/N desperately attempted to apparate away from the entwining tangles of the Forbidden Forest, the very essence of the place resisted her. 

With an explosion of magical energy, she was forcibly transported to another forest, one equally as enigmatic and shrouded in darkness. The sudden shift in location left her disoriented, and she collapsed onto the forest floor, unconscious.

Time passed, its measure uncertain in the mystical realm where she had been cast.

The Forbidden Forest, with its dense magical aura, interfered with Apparition. She ended up at an unintended location within the forest, drawing the attention of the unwanted.  

"Don't you dare touch her!" a familiar voice shouted. It was a voice she recognized all too well, a voice that now resonated with both familiarity and fear. "Give her to me!" the same voice demanded.

"She is our only leverage against the Minister, if any harm comes to her, the Dark Lord will tear you into pieces." said by an unknown voice, this time.

Y/N was so confused. Where was she? Why did her body was trembling?

The only thing she could remember was that she was in the Forbidden Forest. Now she was at the, really, where was she?

As her senses slowly returned, she tried to make sense of her surroundings. The world was a blurry haze, and her body felt unsteady. She was trembling, her emotions and her disorientation merging into a whirlwind of fear and apprehension.

She was at the no? No? NO? She was at the Malfoy Manor? 

There was a guy with a silver mask. A big guy. In the midst of the tense and uncertain atmosphere, as the figure in the silver mask approached, his presence cast an eerie and imposing shadow over Y/N.

"Are you okay?" he asked in a soft voice--Draco?

He removed the mask, and to Y/N's shock, the person beneath it was none other than Draco Malfoy.

The same Draco who had once held her in his arms was now in a position that frightened her. She was left at his mercy. 

"First of all, I can and I will explain." he said to Y/N.

She was in total shock. Y/N's eyes remained fixed on his, staring blankly. She was in total shock.

First, the ministry falls, and then she is captured by Salazar-knows-who, only to be thrown in front of Draco Malfoy in disguise.

For a second which felt like an eternity everything fell into place. He distanced himself from her because he was a death eater.

Not just any death eater but a high-ranking one. Probably a skilled one. Probably a promising one.

Now, she was captured by them.

Part of her still wanted to touch him, hug him, even kiss him. "Minister daughter who fell in love with a death eater" is pretty decent for a headline in the Daily Prophet. That was what he wanted to protect her from.

He leaned in to hug her. She wanted to hug him so badly. She has been waiting for his embrace for months now. Yet, the harsh reality of the situation held her back.

She longed for him so badly. But not like this. But not when he is disguised as a death eater. Most importantly, not when her father's everything was taken away by his Lord.

"Stay away from me." she said in tears.

"Y/N....Please..I...I need you to understand." he burst into tears, as he spoke. He couldn't bear the thought of her despising him, but the pain in her eyes was devastating. 

"You.. How could you?" Y/N asked.

"I was forced, he was going to hurt my mother, he was going to hurt me, he was going to hurt...you." he said.

He was desperate. He has been desperate since he got that mark.

"The Dark Lord, he saw you in my memories. He knew you were my weakest point so he threatened to hurt you if I didn't do this. I had no choice. You have to understand…." his voice cracked.

Y/N said nothing.

She was still trying to process all that just happened.

"He threatened me with you. I had no choice." Draco added.

"Why didn't you let me help you? Why didn't you come to me?" she finally asked.

"There was nothing you could do. They were conspiring against your father. Sooner or later Ministry was going to fall. There were no other options." he said. "I have been meaning to tell you this for so long. Don't you understand? He was going to torture you. The only way to stop this was to stay away from you." Draco was devastated. 

"All those months...all those months I wanted to come and ask you what the hell that I did wrong?" Y/N said.

"You did nothing wrong. He threatened me with torturing you..He said that he would... That they would torture you and will force me to watch." Draco said.

"What's your ranking?" Y/N asked wiping away her tears.

"My what?" he couldn't exactly understand the question.

"Your ranking Draco. The place you hold among the death eats- ..them." Draco stood silent.

How the hell in Salazar's name he was going to explain to her that he was destined to take his father's place since the day one.

That his fate was written long ago he was born.

"My father's place will be mine soon after." he said.

"I see." she answered. "It's clear that you've grown into liking this. Seems you belong to them now." she didn't mean any of this. She really didn't. She just needed confirmation from him. She just needed to know that Draco still belonged to her.

"Of course not. Do you think I do this shenanigan willingly? I knew from the start that my father's twisted ideals would get us into trouble, I just never thought they would cost me….you." he said.

"What makes you think that I would still choose to be with you even if the Dark Lord hadn't threatened you? You would still be a death eater, willingly in that possibility." she was furious.

"Since you are a pure blood---" his words were cut by Y/N.

"What Draco? What if I was not a pure blood? Would it make any difference?" she asked.

“He would not hurt you, that is what I am trying to say.” Draco answered.

"You went down a path that I couldn't follow. This has nothing to do with my blood." Y/N said.

“Let me finish first." Draco said in a calm voice.

"I loved you since that summer and you knew it. I adored everything about you. I adored your curls, I adored your smile, I adored the way you connected with Purry, I adored how you made me calm." he was out of breath. "And he...he knew that…" Draco hesitated for a moment. "He knew that you were my weakest point. He was going to take you away from me. He left me without a choice."

As they stood there, the weight of their emotions hanging heavy in the air, both Draco and Y/N knew that their journey was far from over, and the path ahead was uncertain.

"Now, you have to leave bef- before..." he couldn't continue. Draco's voice turned colder, devoid of emotion. 

"Before what?" Y/N asked.

Draco couldn't look her in the eyes.

"Tell me. Before what?" Y/N said in a trembling voice.

"Before it's too late." Draco said.

"After he finds out that you have let me escape, he is going to--, you know he will…." Y/N stuttered.

"I know he will…but there's only one way you can escape." Draco answered and added "He isn't down to play games and he won't stop until he gets what he wants."

"I am not leaving. Not without..you." Y/N said.

"Don't make it harder than it already is. All I am asking you to do is leave. I'll deal with the rest." said Draco.

There was a cold look in his grey eyes. The same grey eyes once filled with love towards Y/N were now too clouded with her protection that he couldn't even think straight. All he ever thought about for the last year was protecting her and he would not give up when he was this close.

"You have to leave now, or else I'll make you." Draco sounded colder than ever.

There was no room for feelings in this. Protecting her was his priority and he would do anything to make it happen.

"I am not leaving without you Draco. Forget it. I won't leave you in a situation like this, not again." Y/N was sobbing at her words not knowing where to stand.

"Theo." Draco called calmly.

Out of nowhere, Theo appeared.

"I am sorry Y/N." Theo said.

"All this time? You were, too?" Y/N asked, feeling like she had reached the point where nothing could surprise her anymore. 

“My father forced me. You know him. You know what he is. I am sorry Y/N, we never meant to hurt you. But you have to leave now, I’ll help you.” Theo said.

“If I leave now, what will happen to Draco?” Y/N asked Theo.

“You basically handed yourself in. What do you think is going to happen once the Dark Lord hears that he let you escape?” Theo said.

"Theo." Draco sighed.

There were millions of scenarios that were going through Y/N’s head, each worse than the other.

Draco, on the other hand, was running out of patience. “I can’t keep you here any longer. It is either you leave or I make you.” Draco shuts out his emotions again.

“Look Y/N, I am not playing a game here. I have been trying to keep you safe ever since. Don’t tell me it was all for nothing.” Draco had some kind of sorrow in his voice. “Don’t tell me I stayed away from you only to see you get hurt in the end.” Draco was begging her to leave.

“I will leave on one condition.” she said.

“Done.” Draco answers.

Y/N looked at him with a shocked face.

“I didn’t even name it, Draco?” she was confused.

“You want to meet your parents, don’t you? I’ll have Theo take you to them. Consider it done.” Draco said. “Arrangements will be made accordingly.” He added.

“No.” Y/N answered.

“I will eventually go to my parents. But not just yet. First, I need you to promise me something.” Y/N stuttered.

Draco looked at her in confusion.

“I need you to promise that you’ll come back to me if I leave right now.” She was scared. So scared of losing him once again.

“You know I can’t promise that.” Draco sighed.

“Well then, I am not leaving. I’ll hand myself to Dark Lord before I let him hurt you, Draco.” Y/N was determined. “You can’t push me away this time. The word has already spread that I was caught.” She added stubbornly.

"Theo, can you give us a second?” Draco demanded.

Theo nodded and left the room.

Draco stepped closer to Y/N. His stormy, dreamy grey eyes once filled with love was now filled with pain. A teardrop has fallen from his eye.

The thought of any harm befalling her is an excruciating torment that shakes him to his core. Desperation, born out of his longing to safeguard her, permeates his actions. His very essence trembles with the fear of losing her, especially with the knowledge that she's now a target in the perilous game they've been thrust into.

He was crying.

“Do you want me to beg?" Draco kneeled down. "Fine I’ll beg for you to leave then.” He was on his knees.

Before he could speak, Y/N interrupted him with a kiss. A kiss that consisted longing.

“I need you to come with me Draco. I can’t do this alone.” she said.

She was desperate as much as he was. She was going to do whatever it takes to drag Draco out of this darkness.

"Why can't you see it? If I come, then he would come after us. I can’t drag you into this. That is exactly what I have been trying to protect you from.” Draco explained. “I had everything planned. I was going to keep you safe." he looked away.

Almost like he was trying to say that Y/N ruined his plan of protecting her.

"Didn't you know that Forbidden Forest interferes with magic when it comes to apparating?” he asked.

She shaked her head as in no.

“Well, clearly.” He answered.

"I've spent months devising a plan, and you've disrupted it in a matter of seconds. I've always known that you were his primary target. You're the only leverage he has against your father. If he gets hold of you, consider his target achieve. Consider him the winner." Draco was at his lowest.

The love they still hold for each other is like an open wound, a source of profound anguish. It's a twisted, painful bond that neither can break free from, a festering wound that refuses to heal.

"Well, well, well. Who do we have here?" Voldemort's voice, like a serpent's hiss, cut through the silence.

Little did they know, Voldemort's arrival was just a matter of time.

"The Minister's Daughter. Or should I say the Fallen Minister's Daughter?" his voice was deep.

Y/N looked at him in disgust.

"And Draco Malfoy?" he was demanding an explanation for Draco's unexpected presence.

The confrontation had begun, and Draco knew that he had to find the strength within himself to protect Y/N and preserve their chance at a happy future, no matter the cost.

Draco's intelligence shone through as he crafted a brilliant plan to buy time from Voldemort. He knew that he couldn't simply defy the Dark Lord's commands, and so he had to employ cunning strategies. His plan involved offering a facade of compliance while ensuring that he withheld crucial information. It was a gamble, and the stakes couldn't have been higher. With a carefully constructed mix of half-truths and misinformation, Draco began to weave a web of intrigue and diversion, his plan was to keep Voldemort in the palm of his hand.

"My Lord, I have come to prove my loyalty beyond any doubt." Draco carefully formed the sentence.

Y/N was shocked yet she knew Draco enough to know that he had an ulterior motive. "

"And what loyalty do you possess now, after your recent indiscretions?" asked Voldemort.

"My loyalty to you, my Lord, has never wavered. But my actions may have led to some misunderstandings. I seek your guidance to correct my course." answered Draco.

Clearly, Draco had crossed a line that he shouldn’t. All in the name of protecting Y/N.

"Explain further." Voldemort demanded. That was it. That was the moment Draco had managed to switch Voldemort's attention from Y/N to something else.

"My Lord, I have reason to believe that Y/N possesses knowledge about the location of her parents." Draco said as he was looking at Y/N who was trembling from fear. "I can go by myself My Lord but her parents will be more convinced if she comes, as well. She is a leverage after all." Draco's eyes darkened.

"Why should I permit her to join you, Malfoy? What guarantees do I have that you won't betray me?" Voldemort was not fully convinced. He knew that Draco had a soft spot for Y/N.

Draco knew this was the pivotal moment, and his words needed to be carefully chosen. "My Lord, I am willing to offer myself as collateral. If Y/N or I should fail in our mission or show any disloyalty, you can take my life as retribution." his eyes darkened, again.

No, he didn't just go that far. That was beyond impossible. He didn't just risk his life for her.

Y/N looked at Draco for the first time since Voldemort came.

"A life for a life, Malfoy. A tempting offer, I must say." Voldemort seemed impressed.

Draco's plan seemed to be working. For now.

"I am willing to take the Unbreakable Vow." Draco added.

Too much at stake. There really was too much at stake. Just the thought of failing made Y/N sick to her stomach. She would not only lose her life but she would also lose Draco. And her parents. Too much to risk.

Voldemort's gaze remained fixed on Draco, his expression inscrutable. After a tense silence, he finally spoke "Very well, Malfoy. You may bring the Minister's Daughter with you. But remember, any sign of disloyalty or failure will be met with severe consequences. Do not underestimate the price of failure." Voldemort said.

Draco managed to convince him. Without taking the Unbreakable Wow. Draco managed to manipulate Dark Lord.

"And as for you, the Minister's Daughter, I can't help but feel pity. It seems you've not only lost the man you once loved but are also on the brink of losing your parents." Voldemort sneered, his words filled with malice.

Y/N had a lump in her throat.

"Get going then, Malfoy. But remember that failure is not an option." Voldemort said as he left the room.

Draco just nodded.

"How?" Y/N asked standing in front of a warehouse.

"Snape." Draco answered.

All those nights that he disappeared were for Y/N.

"Snape is my godfather." Draco started to explain.

"Oh? How come I never heard of it?" Y/N questioned why he kept this information.

Draco hesitated but decided to share more about Snape's role in their plan. "It's just-- it doesn't matter. He helped me come up with this plan. He is also an acquaintance of your father's. Besides, he knows the Dark Lord better than anyone. He knew eventually he would come after you. He warned me." Draco explained.

"So, all those nights when you sneaked out--?" Y/N was interrupted.

"I went to him. He is a double agent." he answered. He knew that Snape's double agent role was crucial, and he used it to his advantage. “After I found out that his main target was you, I went through every possible scenario. Over and over again. O have calculated every possibility. One by one. All for you." his eyes were warmer than ever. "The plan revolved around several key elements, you being kept away from me, Snape's assistance, and eventually you will be brought back to your parents." he finished. "However, we had to change a few things since you just couldn't stay still. We had to move your parents to another safe house." he finished.

“Because of me?" she asked.

Draco nodded. "However, it doesn't matter now, since you are all safe." he said.

"But, what about you?" Y/N couldn't hide her concern for Draco.

"Me? It's not important." he looked away.

"But it is. It is important. It's not like I am handing you back to him. Over my dead body." she was scared. Scared of losing him to the darkness once again.

"See, That's the thing. That's the part I couldn't figure out. Snape is--" he didn't finish his sentence.

"Snape is what?" Y/N couldn't exaclty understand What's going on.

"He didn't tell me the rest of the plan." Draco said.

"What? I don't understand. This doesn't make sense. He can't just leave us--you." Y/N said in a rather concerned voice.

"Seems he just did." Draco said.

Little did they know, Snape was the one who paid the price of the betrayal. His death marked a turning point in the ongoing battle against the Dark Lord and his followers.

"Now, get inside." Draco said to her.

"You?"she asked.

"I'll be just right behind you." he answered.

As Y/N entered the warehouse, she realized that it was warmer than she would expect it to be. She heard a noise. She turned her to look Where it was coming from. Then she realized it was her parents. Draco brought her to her parents.

Later that night, as the moon hung high in the velvety sky, Draco found himself alone in the dimly lit room. His heart was heavy with all the emotions he had longed to express. He had given Y/N some time alone with her parents, a precious moment that meant the world to her.

When a soft knock echoed through the room, he turned his gaze towards the door, where Y/N stood.

"Come in." he said.

"Draco?" she spoke as if her heart couldn't bear to contain the emotions any longer.

"Yes, Y/N?" Draco's voice was low and filled with a newfound calmness, as though the storm that had raged within him had finally found serenity. His grey eyes were at ease, at last.

Y/N stepped closer, her every movement a declaration of the feelings that had held her captive. "I wanted to thank you for all that you've done," she began, her eyes locked with his.

"You don't have to thank me. That's what you do for the one you love." he answered.

Y/N looked away.

"I love you, Y/N. If there is one thing that hasn't changed in me, it is my love for you." he said.

This was the moment he had longed for, and he couldn't let it slip away. He reached out, gently cupping her face in his hands, his stormy grey eyes fixed upon hers.

"Everything I did was to protect you. You wouldn't have any idea how hard it was to stay away from you. I've been through hell and back to protect you. That's it for me. You are it for me. I love you. I always have--" Y/N silenced him with a kiss.

A kiss after months of being apart. A kiss that said "I love you" in every way possible. A kiss that said "I belong to you" in every way possible. As their lips met, it was as if time itself had stopped, allowing them to savor this passionate reunion.

The kiss was far from sweet; it was an inferno of emotion, a tempestuous display of love that had endured the trials of fate. Every second of separation had led to this moment, where their lips tasted like salvation and redemption.

Draco held on to her as she was air and he couldn't breathe.

Salazar knows for how long they stayed in each other's embrace. When they finally broke apart, their eyes locked once more, and Draco whispered "Forever. You are mine forever."

"Forever, Draco Malfoy. I am yours forever.” Y/N answered.

PART 4

Part 1 Part 2 Part 3 Part 4 Part 5

Expected. That was the damn word. That was the word which could explain the break-up. However, expecting something doesn’t mean it would not sting like hell.

So, the inevitable happened.

Draco called it quits without a single ounce of doubt that night. It all unfolded so damn fast, as if he'd been following some twisted plan from the start.

Y/N had endured Draco's ice-cold demeanor for nearly three freaking months. She stayed, convinced that somewhere beneath the ice, he still loved her until that moment.

“Y/N?” Draco knocked Y/N dorm’s door.

“Come in, Dray.” she recognized the voice.

“Hi. I thought you were busy this afternoon. You told me that—” Y/N was interrupted.

“I need to talk to you.” Draco said. He jumped right into the conclusion. “I don’t think this is working out. It actually hasn’t been working out for a while. As you may notice.” Draco looked away.

Straightforward.

“I-I…wha- what are you implying?" Y/N's voice trembled, her heart pounding a frantic rhythm.

“I am saying that it is over. I don’t feel anything about you. Not anymore. We are over.” Draco's face remained a cold, emotionless mask.

Y/N was shaking. Visibly shaking.

“I-I..This—Us--..” She struggled to find the right words, her mind a chaotic whirlwind.

“I think I made myself perfectly clear. There is no us now.” Draco turned his back to leave.

Her whole world shattered in a split moment. Never in a million years she thought he would leave her like that. Her body was trembling, her hands were shaking, her mind was blurred but most of all didn't seem to matter because she could swear that the man standing in front of her was nobody but a stranger from now on.

It all happened so fast that it was almost like she had already lost him, now he was only making it clear to her.

Y/N was speechless.

Y/N had steeled herself for the inevitable breakup, but the searing pain it unleashed was far from predictable. In that heart-wrenching moment, Draco, as per his usual demeanor, revealed nothing. His face was an inscrutable mask, devoid of any discernible emotion. It was as if he'd rehearsed this scenario a thousand times before, leaving Y/N drowning in a sea of uncertainty, her emotions tumultuously churning beneath the surface.

The world continued to turn, but Y/N was caught in a timeless limbo, her heart unable to mend in the wake of the breakup. It felt like a battle against the weight of her emotions, a struggle to reclaim a sense of self that had been shattered and scattered in the lost love.

The aftermath of the break-up was predictable. Two ruined people. Two shattered hearts. Two lost souls. She was nothing more than a ghost. She was not sleeping, not eating, not even living. She was lost in her thoughts. His touch, his kiss, his gaze, how she felt in his arms were something that she would miss for the eternity. She stood by his during every argument, every dispute, she even stopped talking to her friend Graham for him. She would push away anyone and everyone for him. But why was this wasn't enough for him? Where did it all go wrong? She was sure that somewhere along the line she started doing too much, and he was not doing enough. Her thoughts was eating her alive. She couldn't cry even if she wanted to. She was in a shock mode. She couldn't react. She couldn't breathe or think or see. She was just lost in the moment he walked away from her.

Why did he leave her?

He told her that he had lost feelings for her which obviously wasn't the case. She knew that behind his thought facade, there is a delicate boy who just wants to make her happy. However, this doesn't seem right.

Later that evening, she decided to take a stroll through the corridors of Hogwarts. Every corner, every hidden spot consisted of a memory of Draco. Everything in Hogwarts was meaningful to her because of him. Not so long ago, they were kissing at the Astronomy Tower. Not so long ago, they were finding peace in each other’s arms. There was not any possible universe that they would not be together. He would choose her in every possibility, she would belong to him in every possibility. However, not in this one.

After a week of avoiding Draco at all costs, Y/N finally decided to show up for breakfast. It was the same Great Hall, the same food, the same people. No but it actually wasn't. Nothing was ever going to be the same. The man that she loves loved loves has turned into a complete stranger. Now she had to face him. In class, if not at breakfast. In common room, if not at halls. She wasn't sure if she would be able to look him in the eye anymore. He had broken her so much that she was numb eventually. She reached the point of doubting if she had a heart anymore. On the other, she knew that she had to leave her room at some point. Wouldn't matter if today or any other day.

As she entered The Great Hall, she instantly spotted Pansy talking with Adrian Pucey. She decided to join them.

"Hi, Y/N." said Pansy as Y/N was approaching them.

"Morning guys." Y/N answered trying to keep her eyes on them.

However, for a split moment, she turned to sit down and spotted a blonde silhouette. She turned her gaze immediately. It was her first time being in the same room with Draco since their break-up. He seemed to mind his own business tho. He was having breakfast with Theo. Him and Theo were always close but somehow they seemed to be closer for past three months now if that's possible. It was weird sitting in the same room as him but ignoring each other completely. The familiar surroundings had turned into a strange and cold place, mirroring the distance that had grown between her and Draco. Y/N couldn't even finish her breakfast. She had lost her appetite since the break-up. It was almost like she lived with a constant nausea that prevented her from eating. Regularly.

It was not until Pansy grabbed her arm that she realized it was time for class. Y/N entered the classroom. She walked towards her usual spot. Next to Draco. Only to find out that he already switched his seat. Of course he did. He doesn't love you anymore, remember? she thought to herself.

His last words echoed in her head "There is no us now."

A month into the break-up. Still no contact from Draco. Meaning Y/N had her heart as a open wound for a month now. Unhealed and aching.

She was late for charms class. It was the last class for that afternoon. However, corridors were busier than ever. The castle seemed to conspire against her, with moving staircases and hidden passages testing her patience.

In the bustling corridors of Hogwarts, Y/N navigated through the maze of students, her thoughts consumed by the weight of recent events. Lost in her own world of thoughts, she didn't see the figure approaching from the opposite direction. With an unexpected bump, Y/N collided with another student, nearly sending her books and parchment flying. She staggered back a step, her hand pressed against her chest in shock. It was then that she glanced up, her wide eyes meeting a familiar pair of grey ones.

"Y/N." he spoke softly, almost hesitantly, as if the name was a secret he'd been keeping. "Are you okay ?" he asked.

Draco's expression remained unreadable, but there was a hint of something in his eyes.

Y/N nodded.

Then she quickly took her gaze away from his. Draco crouched down to help her, their hands brushing slightly as they reached for the same parchment. Draco's hand, cooler than Y/N remembered, held a subtle tension in his fingers. In that fleeting moment of contact, their intertwined hands seemed to carry the weight of scars that they caused each other. Everything around them blurred, fading into insignificance, their emotions echoing in that touch. It sent shivers down Y/N's spine.

Once their belongings were sorted, they found themselves standing face to face, an unspoken tension filling the air. The bustling hallway around them seemed to fade into the background as they exchanged a lingering look. It was as though the world had paused just for them.

Then, a group of students jostled past, breaking the moment. Y/N and Draco stepped aside, heading in opposite directions.

Their little bump was still on her mind when she entered her dorm.

"I'll wear the purple one." Pansy said pointing a dress to Daphne.

"Date night with Pucey?" Y/N asked.

"Well, that's one way to put it." Daphne answered, gigling.

"Don't tell me you don't remember the tonight's party Y/N!" Pansy was in shock.

"Wha--Oh, yeah I do." Y/N answered.

The party. Completely slipped out of her mind. She was definetly not in the mood for a party to be honest.

"But, I think I'll just skip this one." Y/N added.

"Come on! It will be fun. Besides, it will be distraction from Dra- everything that's been going on." Pansy said.

"Also, Pansy has got a date! Don't leave me alone!" Daphne insisted.

A little distraction didn't seem so bad after all.

"Well, if you guys says so." Y/N decided to go to the party.

The Slytherin Common Room was transformed into a scene of opulent decadence for the night's party. Dimly lit by the soft glow of emerald and silver candles, the room exuded an air of mystery and sophistication. The walls were adorned with tapestries featuring serpentine motifs, and rich, forest-green draperies hung gracefully, casting intricate patterns of shadows across the space. In the dimly lit Slytherin Common Room, the atmosphere was charged with tension.

Draco and Y/N, once inseparable in their love, now stood worlds apart. Draco's heartache had driven him to make the excruciating decision to end their relationship. Yet, his love for her remained a constant but buried beneath layers of darkness. As the night wore on, a masquerade of indifference clung to Draco's facade as he watched from the shadows. The party's laughter and clinking of glasses seemed a distant echo in his ears.

Then, a game of spin the bottle began, and Y/N was drawn into it, Draco's stormy gray eyes were locked onto the scene unfolding before him. Y/N went on to join the game of spin the bottle. It was a spontaneous, almost reckless choice, born of the night's charged atmosphere.

He had watched as Y/N, the love he had once held so close, gracefully spun the bottle, her laughter filling the room. As the bottle spun, landing on a random Slytherin, Draco couldn't tear his eyes away from the sight of Y/N, her face bathed in the soft, greenish glow of the common room .

The bottle had landed on a nameless face, and in that moment, Y/N couldn't have cared less about his identity. Her mind was a tumult of emotions, and she needed a distraction, an escape from the thought of Draco that had been consuming her.

The guy approached her, but Y/N remained untouched by any thrill or excitement.

Without a hesitation Y/N let him kiss her.

His kiss was a hollow gesture, devoid of any real emotion or connection.

Jealousy and pain surged through Draco as their lips met. He clenched his fists, his knuckles whitening as he yearned to be the one to hold her, to feel her lips against his own. The room blurred around him as he struggled to conceal his anguish, a silent scream echoing within his tormented soul. At that moment, amidst the chaos of the party, Draco's love for Y/N burned brighter than ever, though he remained a prisoner of his own sacrifices. However Y/N on the other hand, decided to leave the game.

She decided that she had to call it a night here, so she wouldn't regret it the next day. She showed no emotions, no reactions. She just walked away from the guy that just kissed her.

The kiss didn't mean anything to her.

She was walking towards the stairs when she felt someone grabbing her arm. Oh, she wanted it to be Draco. She wanted it to be Draco so badly. She longed for it to be Draco.

However, it wasn't. It was the guy she had just kissed. She didn't even have the care in the world to ask for his name.

"Y/N?" he approached.

What was his name again?

"You-how do you know my name?" Y/N asked in a surprise.

"I mean-- Everyone in this school kinda does." he answers.

"Yeah" she nodded.

"What did you need?" she asked.

"Nothing. I just- just...The kiss was.." he couldn't find the right words.

"Kiss was what?" Y/N said in a cold tone.

Draco was still watching Y/N. What he felt was a jealousy born of the deep affection he still held for her, a possessiveness that he had never truly let go of. He wanted to rip that guys throat off. He really did want it.

"You know what, why don't I try kissing you again?" the guy leaned in.

"Oh, no thanks, I'll pass." Y/N didn't have a care in the world about this guy.

"Give me a chance to prove it to you." he insisted.

"Prove what? What is there to prove?" Y/N asked mockingly.

"Just let it happen, you won't regret it I promise." he took a step closer to Y/N, and all of a sudden their lips touched again.

As the guy's lips pressed against Y/N's once more, the atmosphere became charged with tension. Y/N had long lost her ability to feel. She was completely numb after Draco left.

Unbeknownst to her, Draco was watching all this from afar.

However, the guy's lips were gone in the blink of an eye. Y/N opened her eyes, only to find out Draco got the guy pinned against a wall, punching him.

The first punch happened so fast that it was hard to follow. It landed on the guy's face with a loud thud. The room went completely silent, and all that could be heard was the sound of Draco's fists hitting the guy. It was like watching a brutal act of violence.

"Oh for Salazar's sake! Draco!" Y/N was in shock.

Draco was punching the guy, non-stop. It was almost like he zoned out.

"Draco just stop!" Y/N shouted at Draco again. The guy, trapped against the wall, tried to defend himself, but he couldn't do much. His face showed pain and confusion with every hit. Each punch echoed through the room, creating a disturbing rhythm.

Y/N stepped in between them. Taking Draco away from the guy. "What the hell do you think you are doing?" Y/N asked.

Draco scoffed, and by now, everyone at the Slytherin party had gathered around them. 

Y/N whispered"I am so sorry." to the guy and dragged Draco outside.

As Y/N guided Draco out of the bustling room, both of them were seething with anger. The change from the loud party to the quiet hallway didn't cool their anger one bit. Their footsteps echoed in the hushed corridor, punctuated by the tension between them. Y/N's grip on Draco's arm was firm, reflecting her frustration, and it was a silent signal that they needed to have a serious conversation away from the prying eyes of the party.

"What the fuck was that?" Y/N asked to Draco.

He was fueled with anger. His eyes were boiling with anger.

"Answer me, Draco. What the fuck did you just do there!" shouted Y/N.

Draco lifted his head and looked away.

"LOOK. ME. IN. THE. FUCKING. EYE." Y/N held his chin and turned his head towards her.

His stormy grey eyes were on her hazel eyes. They were face to face now, just like a thousand years before when they had last looked at each other this way. So close, yet so far.

She shook her head and cleared her thoughts.

Looked him in the eye again, demanding an explanation.

"He was kissing you." Draco said.

Y/N didn't answer.

"That stupid spin the bottle game was one thing. But walking up to you? Who the fuck is he to come even a mile close to you?" Draco's anger was written all over his face.

Beneath the façade of anger, Draco's eyes revealed a deep hurt. He had acted impulsively to protect what he perceived as his territory, but as he faced Y/N alone, his anger had given way to vulnerability. He still cared deeply for Y/N, and the kiss had stirred up intense jealousy and possessiveness, making him confront the reality that Y/N was no longer his. "I'll bury him alive." he added.

"What? Draco, no? You don't get to do this." words came out of Y/N's mouth in a second. "You don't get to decide who I kiss, not anymore." Y/N finally said it.

She wanted to assert that she was no longer under Draco's control or influence, especially after he had left her behind. Beneath her words, there was a lingering sense of hurt.

Draco looked away again.

"I am not yours to keep Draco. Not since when you left." said Y/N. Her eyes were fueled with anger.

Draco stood silently, waiting for Y/N to take her words back.

But she didn't.

"Where does it leave me then?" Draco said in pain. His emotions were a turbulent mix of frustration, longing, and a sense of loss.

"Nowhere, I guess." she answers.

Draco looked Y/N in the eye one last time and turned around to leave.

PART 3

Part 1 Part 2 Part 3 Part 4 Part 5

The return of Lord Voldemort sent shockwaves through the wizarding world, marking a dark and foreboding chapter in its history. His resurgence was marked by an atmosphere of fear and trepidation, as whispers of his malevolent presence spread like wildfire. His name, once feared to be spoken, was now on the lips of every witch and wizard. The chilling news of his return sent ripples of uncertainty and concern, for Voldemort was the very embodiment of evil, and his return heralded a time of impending darkness. His followers, the Death Eaters, rose from the shadows, and their activities instilled a sense of foreboding and insecurity, reminding all that the wizarding world was far from immune to the terrors of its dark past. Voldemort's return was a grim reminder that, despite years of peace, the age-old battle between good and evil had rekindled, and the wizarding community would once again have to confront the malevolent forces that threatened their World. The Sacred Seven, despite their strong bond, couldn't escape the complicated influences of their parents. Their  priorities and loyalties were complicated enough. Some of their parents being part of the death eaters were a basic knowledge around Hogwarts. However, they try not to project it on each other. Their friendships were stronger than that.

For Y/N, she got letters from her mum every now and then. Occasional letters from her mother mentioned Voldemort's return also posed a risk for her father as the Minister of Magic. Things were tense back home, as well.

It was all becoming too overwhelming for her at the moment.

Draco's return brought the news with him. He was...tense.

There was a certain distance between Y/N and Draco ever since he got back.

It all must have happened on his trip back home. They were perfectly fine before it. What caused him to be so distant must have had something to do with that trip. The sudden change in his behavior was nothing but unpredictable. He was cold and distant. However, it was hard to explain. He didn't give her reason to question his love for her, but he kept his distance. Seems he always had somewhere to go and something to do. With each passing day, he grew increasingly cold.

Days turned into weeks and Y/N couldn't count them anymore. He was cold. Brutally cold. The guy once who held her so close, so gently close was gone. Something was missing in his touch. Y/N couldn't exactly name it. The man that she loved was slipping through her fingers and there was nothing she could do.

It all started with late night sneak outs.

After classes when Y/N and Draco went to Draco's dorm, they would talk and cuddle for an hour or so, and Y/N would fell asleep in his arms. He would leave the room gently. It was not until that night she had noticed it.

It was a cold February night. The snow embraced Hogwarts. Y/N and Draco were in Draco's dorm talking about how posions became harder this year. But Draco's mind seemed to be stuck on something else. She was aware but didn't want to point it out. They carried on the conversation. Well, mostly she did. Then he pulled her into his embrace and kissed her. Draco was so close yet so far. After a while, Y/N's eyes were so heavy that she couldn't hold them open. She fell asleep in Draco's arms. Only to find out he was gone after an hour or so.

"Dray?" her gaze wandered around the room. It was almost midnight. He was there, holding her. Where could he have possibly gone? "Draco?" she asked again. No answer.

Him being cold was one thing. Him being gone at midnight was another.

Y/N decided to check the common room. Maybe he just wanted to get some air she thought to herself. She perfectly knew it was an excuse she made to herself. However, she wanted to believe it. And even if he wasn't in the common room, he could always be at Astronomy Tower, right?

She got up from the bed and put her jacket on. She held the doorknob only to find someone else pushing it from the other side.

"Draco?" she asked.

"Oh, you--you up?" he asked.

"Yeah. And you? You were gone?" she asked.

"Yeah, I had to um…- you know, deal with some stuff." he obviously lied.

Since when does he have some stuff to deal with in the middle of the night? The sentence itself screamed that it was a lie. Besides, it was written all over his face.

"What kind of stuff?" Y/N asked, hoping to get a proper answer.

"Some Prefect duties...like…patrolling around." he answered.

"It's not your turn to patrol today. That's why I am staying here tonight?" she knew something was wrong.

"We changed the schedule. I must have forgotten to mention it. No big deal." Draco answered. He was giving the runaround.

Y/N might be many things, but stupid definitely wasn't one of them.

"Draco, this is the last time I am asking this. Where were you?" her tone was skeptical rather than cold.

"I don't understand why you are making a big deal out of a patrol. I had to do it. I am a Prefect." he was confident.

"I am not stupid. I know your schedules better than you do. We planned this night weeks in advance."she was also sure of herself.

"Whatever, Y/N. I am not doing this with you right now." he said as he was walking towards his bathroom.

"Oh? Is that your final say?" she asked.

He looked at her over his shoulder and answered "Yes."

And with that, Y/N started to pack her things to leave the room.

"What are you doing?" Draco asked.

Y/N didn't answer.

"Why are you leaving?" he asked again.

"I'll stay in my room since you developed a habit of sneaking out when I’m asleep." she answered.

Draco would knew that it was a matter of time before she would notice.

"I won't tolerate it. Not without a proper explanation, at least." she added.

"I have already explained. You'll learn to respect me." he answered.

"Respect goes both ways. And we clearly have a problem on your side." she answered.

He frowned at her.

Her eyes landed on his grey eyes for the last time that night.

Then she slammed the door and went to her dorm.

Pansy and Daphne were already asleep when Y/N entered the room. She kept her quiet, not wanting to wake them up. It was until, she slipped over a chair and fell down.

A loud noise woke both Daphne and Pansy up.

"Are you okay?" Daphne asked with sleepy eyes.

"Geez. Just watch your step." Pansy was still half asleep.

"Oh, sorry guys." her tone was cold.

Pansy was the first one to remember that she wasn't supposed to be here tonight.

"Weren't you staying with Draco?" Pansy asked.

"Um, yeah. I was going to-" she was cut off by Daphne.

"Was?" she asked.

"Yeah, he has been kind of…distant?" Y/N's answers were short.

They both looked confused.

"What's going on, Y/N?" asked Daphne.

"I don't know, I really don't. He has been acting weird lately. I lost the track of time since when it all began." her own words made her cry.

"Oh, Y/N. I am sure it is not about you. He was never the warmest one anyways." Daphne said.

"Yeah but…still, he is not the same as before." Y/N answered.

The girls were desperate. They had a look on their faces of worry.

Just then a knock was heard.

"Can I come in?" Draco's voice echoed.

"Girls, is it okay if he just comes in?" Y/N asked.

They nodded.

"Yes." she answered.

Draco stepped in and looked into Y/N's teary eyes.

"Can I talk to you outside?" he asked.

Y/N nodded and stepped out of the room.

"I am listening." she said as she was looking away.

"Look me in the eyes." Draco commanded.

Y/N's eyes were still away from his.

He cupped her face and turned her face to him.

"I was with Snape. I am sorry." Draco answered.

"That's the best you could come up with?" Y/N said as she didn't believe Draco.

"Theo was there, as well. You can ask him." Draco answered.

The blind leading the blind she thought to herself.

"Okay, Draco. Let's call it like that then." Y/N answered half-heartedly.

Her problem was not only about tonight but also about that it had been weeks now that Draco had started to act distant.

"However, this doesn't change the fact that you are distant from me. For weeks now." she said it.

"Forgive me." he answered.

It was clear that he was not going to let her go. At least tonight. And it was also clear that she was not going anywhere. At least not for a while.

She looked straight into his stormy grey eyes. Once filled with love was now seemed to lose its light.

Draco took a step closer. "Forgive me." he whispered again as he was leaning in to kiss her.

The kiss was….needy. They both needed each other and they both knew it. Tears were coming down on Y/N's eyes as she was kissing him.

Forgiven? Yes. However, heartbroken? Absouletly.

Y/N, Daphne and Pansy were on their way to Hogsmeade. Ever since the word was on street, the tension was unbearable in Hogwarts. Voldemort being back meant Y/N's father to be on watch. Every single day. Every single hour. And Draco's behaviours were definetly not helping.

Daphne and Pansy, acknowledging Y/N's situation, decided to take her to Hogsmeade for a butterbear.

Girls remembered the first time they went to Three Broomsticks. They were at their first year. Three little girls, giggling and drinking butterbear. Oh, the things Y/N would do to go back to that day.

As they walked on snow, Pansy almost slipped.

"Watch out!" said Daphne.

"Yeah Pans or is it because you want your Prince Charming Pucey to come and save you?" Y/N laughed.

"You know, the snow suits Hogsmeade. It looks its best covered in snow." Y/N said.

The girls nodded.

As they entered The Three Broomsticks, they noticed Mattheo and Blaise sitting together. However, Y/N noticed Draco was not there.

"Hey guys!" said Pansy.

"Oh, hey!" answered Mattheo.

“Didn't know you guys were coming to Hogsmeade today, as well." adressed Blaise to girls.

"Yeah, it was kinda a last minute plan." answered Y/N. "And, you guys spoke to Draco?" Y/N asked.

"He is with Theo. They have some things to do, I think. I'm not entirely sure.” answered Blaise.

Yeah of course he did.

"Oh, okay." Y/N tried to hide her disappointment with a smile.

As the group sit and talked together, Y/N's mind was on Draco. It wasn't typical for him to get lost on a Saturday afternoon.

But still, what else he did was typical anymore?

They were the "power couple" of Hogwarts. They were the dream couple. But it all went down in the blink of an eye. One moment, she was his world, and the next thing she knew he was gone. She could sense something was wrong. Every afternoon, he was gone for an hour or so and when he came back, he was destroyed. Y/N first thought that Draco was cheating on her.

Never in a million years, never in a million possibilities. But there she was. He pushed her to that point.

However, not so long after she knew that cheating was out of the picture. Cheating was never in the picture, actually.

Worse was yet to come. With days going on and Draco being distant more than ever, Y/N decided to talk to him, again. Little did she know, this talk would end in an argument. She tried it a million times, hoping to get a proper answer. Each one of their talks either ended with an argument or Y/N crying or both.

"Draco?" Y/N said. Draco nodded.

"This is the last time I am asking this. I-I.. feel trapped. I am not used to seeing you like this. You haven't been yourself for a while. What is wrong?" Y/N's eyes were filled with tears as she was speaking.

She has not been feeling well for a while now. It's almost like she was being dragged away with Draco. She tried to follow him a couple of times whenever he disappeared. However, every time, she lost him. It was practically like he had a way of hiding himself. He managed to be successful every time.

"A-answer me." Y/N stuttered.

"Nothings wrong." Draco looked away.

"Well, clearly something's wrong. And you are not telling me." Y/N said.

"BACK OFF FOR A SECOND FOR SALAZAR'S SAKE." Draco yelled. "LET ME BREATH." He added in a cold tone.

Y/N was shocked. She had never seen him this cold. Yes, he was angry. He tended to get angry at times. She was used to his anger. However, she was not used to his coldness.

She stood still. Waiting for him to react, again. She was expecting Draco to leave the room at this point.

However, he walked towards the window and stood there, looking outside.

Y/N was feeling broken.

She walked towards Draco, swallowing her pride, she hugged him from behind. She put her head into his back. "I love you." she whispered.

"I love you, too." Draco said back. He ran his head through his hair.

Y/N had to give up getting a proper answer, again. "You can tell me anything, you know. I will always stand beside you. I will always choose your side, whether you are right or wrong. It doesn't matter to me. All I am saying is, I am here for you." Y/N said hoping to get a reaction from Draco.

He just nodded. Nothing more. Just. A. Nod. From. Him. Y/N was broken. Once again.

PART 2

Part 1 Part 2 Part 3 Part 4 Part 5

The date night has come and there was one question in Y/N's head. How the hell she was going to explain this whole situation to Draco. There was no doubt that he would hear about this fake double date. The question was how he was going to handle it.

"And how do I look?" asked Pansy to Y/N.

Pansy and Y/N were getting ready while Daphne was helping them.

"Perfect Pans. Pucey is going to love it!" Y/N answered.

"And you better put on some nice clothes, as well." said Pansy to Y/N laughing.

"Yeah, I will change now." said Y/N getting up from the chair she was sitting on.

Pansy was wearing a black-laced mini-dress. Black was really her color. Y/N decided to wear a burgundy satin dress. It was too much for a fake date but she had to maintain a certain figure for Pansy.

"Girls we have to leave now." Y/N said.

While the girls were getting ready, Draco and Theo were sitting in the common room. They were discussing new Quidditch team. Unbeknownst to them, Adrian and Graham were also in the common room waiting for Y/N and Pansy.

Y/N and Pansy were walking down the stairs when Y/N noticed Graham and Adrian sitting in the corner. Draco has heard the footsteps from the stairs that connect the Slytherin common room to the Slytherin Girls' Dormitory. He has lifted her up to see who were coming down the stairs.

That was the moment Y/N felt a pair of grey eyes on her.

Y/N looked stunning in her burgundy satin dress. Draco couldn't help but stare at her for a good three minutes. Y/N smiled at Draco until she heard the voice of Graham.

"Who would've guessed burgundy was your color?" said Graham mockingly.

"Oh, shut up. Let's get this over with." Y/N said, rolling her eyes at him.

That was when it hit Draco. That was when he figured out what was going on. She got dressed up for Graham. All the meetings in shadows, all the exchanged smiles in the hallways... His talk with Y/N in the hallway was no use in this case. Draco always sensed Graham had a kind of weird attraction to her. It might not be mutual, but there it was. Or so he thought to himself.

However, his thoughts were completely wrong and meaningless. Only if he knew who Y/N’s heart belonged to.

Y/N turned for a moment to look at him. To look at Draco. His eyes were filled with both anger and hatred. Anger for Y/N. Hatred for Graham. He was trying to process what was going on. He saw Pansy smiling at Pucey. And then he saw Y/N hugging Graham. His Y/N hugging Graham. Even though he warned her the day before. He felt some kind of sorrow. Draco couldn't exaclty name it.

Daphne came after them. "Have fun guys!" she said.

And then Daphne saw Theo and Draco, sitting on the sofas in front of the fireplace, trying to understand what was going on.

"It is a double date." explained Daphne to both.

"A what?" Theo burst into laughter.

"A double date Theodore." Daphne answered.

"Where does this nonsense come from? A double date my ass." Draco said angrily.

"Jealous much Malfoy? Told you to act on it before it's too late." Theo said.

"Shut up Theo." said Draco and left the room.

It was quarter past midnight when they all came back to Slytherin common room from their double date. Pansy and Adrian were already planning their second date. Preferably just the two of them. Graham and Y/N on the other hand, was joking with each other. It was a fun night for them. However, Y/N's mind wandered back to Draco every now and then. She wondered if he hates her now or if he doesn't care at all. And she couldn't decide which one was worse. They all expected the common room to be empty since it was this late. But they were wrong.

It was in the same moment that they cracked the door open, and a pair of grey eyes landed on them. Adrian and Pansy were walking in front of Y/N and Graham. Adrian said good night to Draco and he led Pansy to the stairs. Draco nodded his head to Adrian. There was no trace of smile on his face. He was dead serious. Then his eyes landed on Graham.

He didn't even look at Y/N for once, his eyes were locked on Graham.

"Night, Malfoy." was the only words came out of Graham's mouth towards Draco and they were enough to fuel the anger within him. He locked his eyes on Graham once again. Y/N felt like this was not going to end well, so she stepped in.

"Graham, I have something to talk with Draco, you can go to your dorm. Thanks for tonight, again." Y/N said.

"Well, then. I'll head off. Night guys." Graham answered.

Y/N walked towards Draco, not knowing his exact feelings towards this date.

"Where did this come from?" he asked without looking into her eyes. "Montaque and you? Thought I made myself perfectly clear when I spoke to you the other day." he lifted his head up towards her.

"What? Draco? No. There is no me and Graham--" Y/N was interrupted by Draco.

"Yeah? Seems like the opposite." he said.

"No let me finish. There is no me and Graham. But there's Pansy and Adrian Pucey." Y/N said looking into his eyes.

"Pucey and Pansy? Then why it was a double date?" he shook his head. You know what? Forget it, you don't have to explain anything." Draco said.

"But I want to. I had to arrange this double date for Pansy. Graham knew it was for them." added Y/N.

"Yeah, whatever." said Draco. "If you say, so." he added. Although he wasn't fully convinced.

"Yeah, I say so." Y/N smiled.

"Fine then, let's go, It's getting pretty lat- No wait? What are you doing this late here? I mean everyone's already in their dorms and you?" Y/N asked hoping to get a proper answer.

"I-I.. uh.. just wanted to sit." Draco answered looking away.

Was he waiting for her?

"Were you tho? I mean how long have you been sitting here?" Y/N asked again.

"Whatever, it is not important. Let's go now." he said.

They both went to their dorms. Y/N heart was racing. And it was all because of the possibilty of Draco waiting for her all night in the common room. He seemed angry with her at first, but nothing but pure concern was laying beneath it. However, what mattered her to most is that he waited for her.

On a rainy afternoon within the ancient walls of Hogwarts Castle, an enchanting aura of magic and mystery hung in the air. The sky was painted in shades of muted gray, and a steady, soft rain fell from the heavens, draping the castle in a shroud of ethereal mist. The enchanted school appeared even more captivating and mystical under the gentle embrace of the rain.

"Purry! Come back here!" Y/N shouted while Purry was running away from her. "Bad kitty! Come back!" said Y/N.

Purry was running into the garden. As the rain continued to fall, creating a dreamlike ambiance in the Hogwarts garden, a figure emerged from the shadows, its fur glistening with droplets of water. It was none other than Purry, who had managed to slip past the castle's boundaries and made her way into the enchanting outdoor haven. Y/N on the other hand, was soaking wet from the rain. But there was no way she was leaving Purry outside. Not when it was raining this heavily. Y/N's shoes splashed through puddles, her socks soaked through, and the cool sensation of water seeped into her shoes with every step. The sleeves of her robes were slick and damp, and she could feel the rainwater trickling down her spine, making her shiver with a mix of exhilaration and discomfort. Her once-dry clothes became saturated, clinging uncomfortably to her skin. The rainwater trickled down her hair, streaming over her face and into her eyes, blurring her vision. Her robes weighed heavily, and the fabric clung to her body like a second skin, making every step feel like a small victory against the relentless deluge. Purry was running non - stop and the rain was getting heavier with each moment passing.

"Purry! Where are you?" Y/N shouted.

Purry was nowhere to be found. It was almost like she got lost in the rain. Y/N was the only student who happened to be out in the garden. Others knew better than to go out when it was raining this heavily. Y/N had long lost the hope of finding Purry when she heard a familiar voice.

"Purry! Y/N must be worried as hell right now!" said Graham.

Y/N turned to the voice only to find Graham holding Purry. Purry's once magnificent fur turned into a soggy mess, damp and heavy, sticking together. Purry's confident posture changed to a slightly sad one, with its tail hanging low and its eyes looking annoyed. It tried to shake off the water, but it was clear the rain had made a mess of its elegant appearance. Despite that, Purry still looked pretty.

"Oh, Purry look at you now!" Y/N said.

"Graham! Thanks! But what are you doing here?" Y/N asked.

"I went to Hogsmeade earlier today, but it started to rain when I was on my way back to Castle. Then I found Purry, soaking wet." Graham pointed to Purry.

"Yeah, she has been kind of... I don't know.. naught lately." Y/N nodded. "Not like her tho." Y/N added.

"So, you are also soaking wet. Here let's go inside and you can take my sweater." suggested Graham smiling.

"We have to get you both dried up. Otherwise I'll have to put up with two ill Y/L/N's ." Graham mocked.

"Oh, I won't talk back only because you found Purry. Consider yourself lucky for today." Y/N answered laughing. Y/N, Graham, and Purry went back inside.

It was a long way back to Slytherin Common Room, so they decided it would be better if they used Prefect's Bathroom. They entered the bathroom together and Y/N cleaned up Purry. Graham gave his Quidditch hoodie to Y/N and took Purry outside so Y/N could change. Luckily, Graham was wearing a t-shirt under his hoodie. Y/N came out of the Prefect's bathroom wearing Graham's hoodie with his last name on it. "MONTAQUE" was written on her back.

She knew that people would notice it, but she wasn't in a position to care about what others think right now. Her whole body was soaking wet. Her hair was dripping. She considered herself lucky to find Graham there. "Oh, thank you, Graham." Y/N said coming out of the bathroom.

"No problem looks better on you tho." Graham said pointing to the hoodie. Y/N nodded her head smiling. They decided it would be best to go to their separate rooms. They had been through enough for the day.

Graham and Y/N entered the Slytherin Common Room, while Y/N was hoping inside that Draco wouldn't be there.

Well, she was wrong.

Draco was sitting on the couch by the fireplace with the others. When they entered, the whole group turned to look at them. Graham greeted the group and walked towards the stairs which led the way to the Slytherin dormitory. Y/N walked with him to thank him once again. She was standing with her back facing the group. And this led the inevitable to happening. Draco saw that Y/N was wearing a hoodie which written "MONTAQUE" on its back. Y/N didn't even want to think about Draco's reaction. Lucky if she could just sneak away from Draco right now.

On the way back to her dorm, she thought it would the best to run away from her friends's questions just for the afternoon. They would already forget it by the night. Or so she thought to herself.

She stepped into her dorm and cleaned Purry up, once again.

Then the door was swiftly opened.

"Is this some kind of a joke to you?" Draco entered the room. His face was pale.

"Thought there was no Montaque and you? Huh?" he was practically demanding an explanation.

"There is no me and hi--" Y/N was interrupted by Draco. 

"Oh yeah? And you are wearing his hoodie? Why are you not admitting it already?" Draco was getting angrier and angrier with each moment passing.

"What is there to admit? There's nothing between me and Graham. It's just--" Y/N was interrupted again by him.

"Cut the bullshit already. First a date, then this? Do you think I am stupid or something?" Draco said.

"It's just I got soaked because of the rain earlier. I was out trying to catch Purry. And he happened to be there. He saw my robe and he wanted to help. That's all. Nothing more." Y/N said.

She was trying to calm Draco down.

“Talk to him more time and you’ll both regret it. One more time. All it takes is one more time and then--" Draco looked away.

"Then what Draco?" Y/N asked. "THEN WHAT?" Y/N shouted. "Why is that any of your concern? Why are you watching my every step?" Y/N asked.

She couldn't believe what was coming out of her mouth. All or nothing. She was getting the answer she wanted or not. She already had nothing going on with him. Even though she loved Draco more than anything, she was tired of this constant chase. Maybe it wasn't exactly a chase, more like a waiting game. Draco, keeping to the shadows, decided to stay put and hung back, unseen, until she got close to someone else. This was going to be sorted now. One way or another.

"Then I'll kick his ass." Draco said. "Then I'll bury him to the ground and even his bones won't be found. And he won't be able to speak to you again." Draco said.

"D-Draco..?" said Y/N in a shock.

"What?" he asked.

"I-I..uhh.. I." Y/N stuttered.

"Can't you see it? I don't want him near you. I don't want any guy near you." he took a step closer. "Only I wanna be near you." he leaned in. "Only I CAN be near you." he whispered. "Now stop messing with my head and take that fucking hoodie off. I will give you mine now." he snapped, an unmistakable hint of jealousy in his voice. He swiftly removed his own hoodie, not because he was feeling generous, but because he couldn't stand the thought of her wearing someone else's. His actions revealed more than his words ever could. He stepped closer and said "I don't want anyone else's name coming out of your mouth. Ever again." he was so close.

Y/N could actually feel his body on hers. His grey eyes landed on Y/N's lips. Just when she thought he couldn't come any closer now, he leaned in to kiss her. It was the kind of kiss that ignites fires deep within, the type that lingers in your thoughts, keeping you awake through the night, replaying the moment over and over again. Draco Malfoy's kiss was a tumultuous blend of emotions, a passionate awakening of love that left them both breathless and forever intertwined in each other's hearts.

Draco suddenly breaks the kiss.

"I love you." he whispered. "I love you so much that I could kill anyone that looks at you." he added. "You are mine and mine only. That's a non-negotiable. That's not a promise, that is a fact." he finished.

Y/N was in shock. "I love you, too Draco." Y/N finally answered.

He leads her to kiss again. "I can do that forever, you know." he said.

"Who would knew you are such a softie Malfoy?" Y/N said smiling.

"I am not a softie." Draco answered.

"Oh, but you are." Y/N said.

"You are mine." Draco said possesively. "Say you are mine." Draco demanded.

"Say you are a softie and I am all yours." Y/N blinked.

"I am your little softie." Draco said and kissed Y/N's neck. "I'm yours." he whispers.

"You won Malfoy, I gave in. I am all yours." Y/N answered. "In every way, you can think of." Y/N added.

"Mine." Draco whispers.

Draco Malfoy and Y/N Y/L/N. The dream couple of Hogwarts. The daughter of the Minister of Magic and the Heir to the Malfoy Throne.  The undeniable power couple of Hogwarts, embodied a union of status, influence, and undeniable magnetism that left their others in awe. Y/N Y/L/N, the radiant daughter of the esteemed Minister of Magic, was known for her grace and charm. Her beauty and intelligence were matched only by her unwavering dedication to her studies and her innate ability to excel in all her magical endeavors. As a member of the Y/L/N family, she carried the legacy of responsibility and leadership, which she upheld with poise and grace. On the other hand, Draco Malfoy, the Heir to the Malfoy Throne, carried an air of aristocracy and power that was second to none. His platinum blond hair and sharp features were a testament to his pure-blood heritage, and he was often seen wearing the most fashionable and expensive wizarding robes. Draco's wit and cunning were renowned throughout the school, and he excelled in the dark arts. His family's long-standing influence in the wizarding world only added to his allure. When they walked together, their presence commanded attention, not just for their beauty and regal bearing but for the way they complemented and completed each other. They were going to build an empire together. Everyone knew they belonged to each other. The Sacred Seven's two members are now the "it" couple. Theo and Blaise were the first ones to notice Draco's interest in Y/N. They even teased him about it. However, Y/N's friends didn't notice her interest, not because they were oblivious but because Y/N hid her feelings very well. It didn't matter anymore. All of it didn't matter because Y/N and Draco found their way to each other's arms. They were the talk of the school now. They radiate the energy that any other couple couldn't. From cheering at the bleachers when playing Quidditch to exchanging kisses between classes they were literally enchanting.

As the school year unfolded, Y/N'S  and Draco's relationship was only getting stronger each day.

The moment December arrived, the castle underwent a remarkable transformation, becoming a winter wonderland of unparalleled beauty, and Christmas at Hogwarts was a time of enchantment and wonder that transformed the castle into a magical holiday haven. The Great Hall was the heart of the holiday festivities. Enormous Christmas trees, taller than one could imagine, were bedecked with an array of ornaments, each seeming to hold its own magical story. Enchanted snowflakes floated overhead, creating an illusion of falling snow, and the long tables were laden with an extravagant feast that seemed to stretch endlessly. Giant, ornate wreaths adorned with mistletoe and holly were hung at every entrance, creating a truly enchanting welcome. The house tables were replaced with long, elegant banquet tables, lavishly set with fine china, crystal goblets, and silverware. The Christmas atmosphere extended beyond the Great Hall as well. Common rooms were transformed into cozy winter retreats, with fires roaring in the hearths, plush armchairs, and decorations that reflected each house's unique personality. Each common room had its own unique holiday charm. The Gryffindor common room crackled with the warmth of a roaring fire, while the Hufflepuff common room was adorned with cheerful decorations, and the Ravenclaw Tower was abuzz with students solving holiday-themed riddles and puzzles. In the Slytherin common room, the décor had an air of sophistication, with emerald green and silver ornaments adding to the ambiance. Festive garlands adorned the staircases and portraits, and the house-elves had knitted colorful holiday-themed blankets and cushions for the students. Throughout the castle, enchanted snowflakes drifted through the air, creating a mesmerizing flurry of tiny crystals. The suits of armor donned festive scarves and hats, and the enchanted paintings came to life with scenes of wintry wonderlands, invoking a sense of nostalgia and joy.

The Sacred Seven decided to stay at Hogwarts for the Christmas Break. The Castle had an enchanting aura that they didn't want to miss. It was a cozy evening when they decided to sit in the Slytherin Common Room together. Draco and Y/N were sitting next to each other while Draco was playing with Y/N's hair and holding her hand. It was a peaceful evening. A familiar feeling. Sitting with friends and enjoying their company.  It was one of those evenings that lingered in the heart, a cherished memory in the making, where the simple act of being together held immeasurable beauty. They talked and talked for hours until Theo and Blaise decided to mock Draco a bit.

"Y/N, tell me, did you know that Draco had a weird obsession with your curls?" asked Theo.

"Shut up, Theo." Draco looked at Theo angrily.

"What do you mean?" asked Y/N curious.

"He is talking nonsense." Draco said to Y/N.

"Oh come on! Let him talk." said Y/N laughing.

"What I mean is, when you are away all he talked about was you. But mostly, your hair. He talked about and stared at your curls non-stop." Theo said.

"Oh, he did? How come I have never noticed?" asked Y/N.

"Oh, well.. he had his way of hiding things." Blaise said. Draco blushed. Everyone burst into laughter.

"Dray, it is cute." Y/N said to Draco. He smiled at her.

When the clock hit midnight, everyone decided to go to their separate rooms.

"Darling, why don't you come to my dorm? I have been waiting for this for the whole night." whispered Draco to Y/N's ear.

She nodded and they went to Draco's dorm.

"So, my curls huh?" asked Y/N.

"YOUR. EVERYTHING." Draco pins Y/N up against a wall and starts kissing her.

"That desperate Malfoy?" Y/N asked mockingly.

"Desperate would be an understatement, darling." he whispered.

"That Rawenclaws know how to throw a party and we both know it." said Blaise looking at Theo.

"Well, what's there left to say then?" Theo answered with a grin on his face.

The Sacred Seven, sitting in their usual spot by the fireplace were discussing the tomorrow's party which was going to be held by Rawenclaws.

"We will leave by 8 pm, I guess?" Daphne asked.

"Yeah, there is no going back now. It took solid an hour to convince Theo to come to the party." Mattheo chuckled.

"But like, I can understand a Christmas Party. It is totally okay. But what the hell is a back-to-school after-Christmas party?" Theo asked in confusion.

The whole group laughed so loudly that it captured the attention of the whole common room.

"It's going to be fine Theo. The theme is not so important, anyways." Y/N said in between laughs.

"I will go back to Manor just for the weekend." Draco spitted out.

Y/N turned her head to look at Draco.

"You will?" she was confused. "How come you never mentioned it before?" she asked.

"Yeah, it was kind of a last-minute thing. Father called me. Said it was important." he explained.

"Oh, okay then." Y/N's face dropped.

"Looks like someone's going to miss her boyfriend." Mattheo chuckled.

"Oh, she definitely will." Daphne answered.

"Cut it already, I'll be back before you guys even know it." Draco cleared the air.

Author’s Note: This is the Part One of a 5 part story. Requests & feedbacks are always welcome. 🤍

Her whole world shattered in a split moment. Never in a million years she thought the man once she loved would be allied with darkness. Her body was trembling, her hands were shaking, her mind was blurred but most of all didn't seem to matter because she could swear that the man standing in front of her was nobody but a stranger from now on.

Let me take you to the beginning of it. Let me take you take you to the beginning of the end.

She was the Minister of Magic’s daughter, which made her popular in a way that is expected. She was everybody's acquittance in one way or another. As for Slytherins, she was a fellow house member. She was a part of the pride that this house took consideration in. For Gryffindors, she was unexpectedly nice, someone who exchanges smiles despite the dispute between two houses. For Ravenclaws, she was a friendly face in the library. She was harmless. For Hufflepuff's she was someone who was pretty kind for a Slytherin while she had a certain reputation to hold as the Minister's daughter. Well, she certainly had her disputes with other students every now and then, but she never crossed a line, which was pretty exceptional for a Slytherin.

Up until her 5th year, she was holding pretty well. She had close-knit friend group which consisted Daphne Greengrass and Pansy Parkinson. Those three were practically inseparable since their childhood. Then there was this bigger group she was involved in which consisted Draco Malfoy, Theodore Nott, Blaise Zabini and Mattheo Riddle. They were called "The Sacred Seven" in school grounds. This was basically a side-name founded after The Sacred Twenty-Eight. They were the cool kids of cool parents. The parents symbolized wealth, power, nobility, wisdom, prudence and dignity, while the kids symbolized the next generation of all these virtues. They were the upholder's of these virtues. They were the future of The Wizarding World. They held power into their hands and no one could take it away from them. It was pretty obvious that they all had some kind of reputation to hold, but hers was different. Y/N's case was totally different than the rest. First of all, her parents were not Slytherins. Never in a million years they could be. Both her parents were Ravenclaws, known for their academic excellence. Her father had been an esteemed healer, known for his exceptional skills that attracted patients from around the world. It wasn't long before he assumed the position of Minister of Magic. Yet, when it came to their loyalties, the situation was even more intricate. Their loyalties were to Order. But as for Y/N, her loyalty was to Draco Malfoy and Draco Malfoy only. She could usually tell right from wrong and good from bad, but when it came to Draco, her judgment seemed to vanish.

It was the summer that links 4th year to 5th when she started to notice her interest in Draco. Not like Theo, Blaise or Mattheo but in a heart-skipping way. Whenever Draco's gaze settled on her, it stole her breath away. It sent shivers down her spine, and her heart raced so loudly in her chest that she feared he could hear it. There was no denying his undeniable handsomeness; he was, in every sense, flawless.

That summer was pretty normal. The Sacred Seven united every once a week what felt like an eternity to her. They were closer than ever. But why did she felt like it was not enough?

Y/N has never really been a summer girl. She never really liked hot. However, The Ministry was throwing an end of the summer party and her Sacred Seven was invited, as well. Her father being the Minister of Magic, they were automatically the hosts for the party. Their house was surely a perfect fit for a posh party with it's great entrance hall and it's big garden.

For the upcoming party, Y/N decided to invite Daphne and Pansy over to prepare together. The girls were brimming with excitement and had been buzzing about this event for weeks. Choosing the perfect outfit had become a significant task for them. However for Y/N, one thing became important more and more each minute. And it was him liking her. Although they have been friends since forever, something inside her started to change towards him. And she can only hope that he was feeling the same.

"What do you think about this one?" asked Daphne shaking diamond earrings.

"They are a favourite for me and they'd look perfect on you." answered Y/N.

Daphne wore the earrings.

"Guys, I dont think I can do my zip. Can you help?" asked Y/N.

"Coming." answered Pansy.

Y/N was wearing an shiny emerald gown. She chose to wear the color emerald because she thought he would like it. She thought Draco would like it. So now, she was standing in front of a mirror, looking at herself only hoping for his fancy.

Her friends, not aware of her feelings towards Draco, was standing behind her and looking at her, as well.

"This dress is a total dream." said Daphne.

"Yes and it must cost a fortune." added Pansy.

"Actually, I don't remember how much I payed for it, I just thought it was nice so I bought it." smiled Y/N.

"Says The Minister's Daughter." added Pansy rolling her eyes.

While girls were chatting and getting ready Y/N's mother knocked the door.

"Come in." said Y/N.

"Girls, you all look amazing. Our guests have started to arrive. I will go down stairs now and your presence will be needed within few minutes." said Y/N's mother.

"Okay mom, we will be down stairs shortly." answered Y/N.

One last breath and then she was ready to go.

She was walking in front of Daphe and Pansy. As Y/N led the girls down stairs, there was a feeling of excitement in her stomach. She was trembling, not because she was unsure of herself but because she knew the moment she has been waiting all summer has came. However, she wanted more. She wanted Draco's attention all to herself, she just didn't realized it yet. Y/N was looking for him as she was walking down the stairs. Her gaze wandered around the room only to land on his grey eyes. Draco was looking at her, like she was some kind of precious gemstone. The type that you only get to see once in your life because it is so rare yet so shiny.

Y/N captured everyone's attention let alone Draco. She was shining. She couldn't hide her smile.

The Sacred Seven united, for the last time that summer. For the last time before Hogwarts. As they grew up more and more each day, they started to see the motive behind the "pure-blood ideal." Which made Y/N sick to her stomach. Her parents were never pure-blood idealists, and never was she either. The thought of claiming one was superior to other was nothing but a non-sense to her. She knew the pressure this ideal put on to her friends so decided to keep quiet about it. After all, they were called "The Sacred Seven" for a reason.

The night of the party went on quite well. For the first quarter of the night, the boys of The Sacred Seven were in awe because of the girls's beauty. The second and the third quarter was what Y/N expected, the group went to the garden to have some time together. Y/N's houses garden was dimly lit, and decorated with vanilla scented candles. It was the perfect place for serenity, far from the party's noise.

"I never realized your garden was this big." said Theo to Y/N.

"Well, that depends on how you decorate it and my mum definitely knows how to do it." answered Y/N smiling.

"Yeah, she has got quite the taste." added Daphne.

"Still, it's not the Malfoy Manor tho." Y/N said to Draco.

"Oh well, this will do as well." he answered smirking.

"If you say so." Y/N answered smiling.

They sat by the small puddle in the garden. They started to talk about going back to school, how they are sure of they would get detention from Snape, how they missed their little trips to Hogsmeade.

After some cozy talking, a guy approached to them. Y/N had lifted her up to see who was the guy. It was one of her friends, Graham Montaque.

"Hi, guys." said Graham.

"Hi." few answered.

"Can I talk to Y/N? Promise I will bring her back soon." asked Graham. Draco was staying still, hadn't shown a response.

"Coming Graham." said Y/N.

Y/N and Graham Montaque took a stroll around the garden. Y/L/N and Montaque family have been friends since before even Y/N was born. Graham's father and Y/N's father's friendship goes back to their Hogwarts year. The father's ongoing friendship caused their children to be friends, as well. Graham was like a brother to Y/N. Even though they both had their separate friend groups, they hung out every now and then. Montaque family ,without a doubt, was invited to party as well. Graham and Y/N's continued talking.

After Y/N had left the group, Daphne, Pansy and Theo went inside to get drinks.

For a split moment, Y/N turned her back to look at Draco. He was talking with Blaise, intensely. She wondered what he was talking about. He was making hand gestures and his mimics were just as expressive as his gestures. Y/N couldn't help but wonder what they were discussing. Draco's hand movements and the way he conveyed his thoughts with his expressions piqued her curiosity. It seemed like an intense and intriguing conversation was taking place, and she couldn't help but be curious about the topic that had captured Draco's attention.

After their stroll, Y/N went back to her friend group just to find Blaise and Mattheo talking. Daphne, Pansy, and Draco and Theo weren't there.

"I don't know mate, he has a weird obsession with her curls." was the only thing Y/N could hear from their conversation. Y/N who had curly hair, had straightened it just for the night, was shocked. Who else does have curly hair she thought. Oh millions of girls she answered herself. Who could they be referring to? Draco or Theo? Or someone completely different?

"Y/N, didn't see you there." said Blaise in a shock.

"Oh, I just came." she answered.

Theo and Blaise were looking at each other shocked. Like they didn't know what else to say. Like they have just spilled some kind of secret.

"Guys, is something wrong?" Y/N asked.

"No, we are perfectly fine." Mattheo answered.

Just then, the girls and Draco arrived.

"Father called me in to meet some people." Draco said. Like he owned some kind of explanation to Y/N.

Y/N nodded.

They continued to sit and talk as they drank and enjoyed the night.

When it was time to call it a night, there was a dull feeling inside Y/N's chest. She didn't want her friends to leave just yet, even thought they were going to take the train to Hogwarts the day after tomorrow.

And just like that, it was the end of their end of the summer party. It was time to go back to Hogwarts. The place which feels like home. The place which she belongs to most, like the autumn leaves belong to gentle breeze.

The Sacred Seven settled in a compartment of The Hogwarts Express. Each one of them being excited more than ever to return Hogwarts. Y/N was sitting and listening in her friends conversations. Her mind wandered back to Draco. Whilst her eyes also wandered back to him. She was looking at him as he was looking outside the window of the train. Then only for a minute, she turned away only to find out his gaze landed on her already.

He smiled at her saying "Your hair looks nice today”.

She was in a total shock, they might be close friends but compliments weren't something she was used to getting from Draco. Then she remembered what she heard last night between the conversation of Blaise and Mattheo "I don't know mate, he has a weird obsession with her curls." The sentence echoed in her head. Could she really be the topic of that sentence? Could "he" refer to Draco? Her body started to feel like it was on fire. Her skin was burning.

"Thanks" she smiled at Draco.

Luckily Daphne and Pansy were too caught up in their conversation to notice what just happened between Y/N and Draco.

She was trying to comprehend what just happened when she heard a familiar voice "Y/N!". She turned away to look at what who was shouting.

"Oh, hi Graham." She smiled and walked away to talk with Graham.

She had to get away from Draco otherwise he would see her blushing.

While Y/N was away talking with Graham, Theo leaned into Draco and said "That's best infamous Draco Malfoy could do?" mocking him.

"What the hell are you talking about Nott?" Draco asked in a cold tone.

"Oh, come on man. We all saw how you look at her." Theo said rubbing his shoulder to him.

"And how would that be?" asked Draco, unintentionally.

"Like you want her to be yours and yours only." said Theo. Unexpected words from Theo.

They were both shocked.

"I never knew your emotional intelligence was this high, you sucker." said Draco.

“What? What's gotten into you all of a sudden?" Theo asked.

Blaise pointed at Y/N who happened to be talking to Graham Montaque.

Y/N was talking casually to Graham. It could be seen from miles that they were just two friends, enjoying each other's company. But Draco was far too jealous to acknowledge it.

As Y/N was walking back to her seat, she noticed the grumpy look on Draco's face.

What's with the face?" she asked pointing out his face.

"Nothing, he is moody as usual." said Blaise.

"Yeah, as usual." said Theo.

"Well then, excuse us we have to use the bathroom." said Pansy dragging Daphne and Y/N by their arms and leading them across the carriage.

"What now Pansy?" Y/N asked laughing.

"Since you are close with Graham, I thought maybe, just maybe…" Pansy was looking at Y/N with puppy eyes.

 “Oh here it comes.” said Daphne chuckling. "Say it already Pansy." Daphne laughed.

"Fine. The thing is..... a double date would be nice. You know, Graham and you and me and Adrian?" said Pansy whispering.

"Oh. My. God. Adrian asin Adrian Pucey?" Y/N answered.

Pansy nodded.

"Graham is like a brother to me! I can't ask him that Pansy and you know it." Y/N answered.

"For Salazar's Sake Y/N! She's not actually asking you to take Graham on a date! She's asking if you guys can accompany them." said Daphne rolling her eyes.

"Oh... well then. I'll think about it." answered Y/N."But please, give me some time so I can come up with a plan." she added.

"Oh thank you Y/N, take as much as time you need." said Pansy hugging her. Girls walked back to their seats as the train was approaching Hogwarts.

Hogwarts was standing in front them with all its magnificence. The castle, with its imposing stone walls, looked both familiar and distant. It was as though it held the echoes of her past, each turret and spire whispering tales of adventures and friendships. Hogwarts, in all its familiarity, was a place of comfort and belonging. It was a place where she had made lifelong friends and had discovered her true self. Returning to Hogwarts was like returning to a piece of her own heart, a reminder of the magical journey that had shaped her into the person she had become.

Students were led inside to have dinner and to settle into their rooms. Y/N, as usual, shared her dorm with Daphne and Pansy. Draco has had his own room since he was a Prefect this year. Mattheo, Blaise, and Theo all shared one room. The first night was always the most exciting one. Settling in and giggling with the girls as the night unfolds, deciding what to wear tomorrow were all special moments Y/N got to share with her friends.

The next morning, the girls woke up early and went to the Great Hall together. As they sat down, the boys of The Sacred Seven approached them and "Finally. The Sacred Seven. At where we belong." said Mattheo smiling. Their first breakfast at Hogwarts for the year was filled with joy and coziness. Shortly after, they all headed to class.

 As autumn made itself felt, it was already the second week of school. The castle was filled with the sound of students. It was a busy Tuesday. Girls were walking down to the Slytherin Common Room until they heard a "mrrrrrr" sound. Y/N turned away to look, only to find her car Purry was following them.

"Oh Purry, baby what happened?" Y/N asked her cat.

"Mrrrrr" answered Purry.

"What is she trying to tell?" asked Pansy.

"I don't know, maybe she is just grumpy this morning." answered Y/N. Y/N went back to her room to feed Purry -who had already had her breakfast- and told her "Oh Purry, more breakfast was all that you wanted?" said Y/N and Purry murmured again.

Y/N was a little late for her own breakfast. She walked towards the Slytherin table and sat down with her friends.

"Where were you?" asked Draco.

"Oh Purry was feeling a little bit hungry today. More than usual." answered Y/N smiling.

"That little cat of yours eats everything and still not enough?" answered Draco laughing.

"Yeah, she seems little but her stomach is bigger than ours combined. Trust me." laughed Y/N.

"Y/N, can I talk to you before class?" said Pansy.

"Yeah, Pans." said Y/N smiling.

Y/N got off the table to talk to Pansy.

"Pansy, before you start, I will talk to Graham today. I couldn't talk to him earlier because he was busy with Quidditch Team." Y/N said.

"Oh, thank you." said Pansy and two girls started to walk to classroom together. They entered the potions class and went on to sit with others.

After class, Y/N left the classroom in a hurry to find Graham who happened to be standing in the middle of the corridor.

"Graham!" she called.

"Oh, hi Y/N. How are you?" he said.

"I'm fine Graham, I have a little favor to ask from you. But promise you won't laugh." Y/N said in a serious tone.

"Well, well, well, this is getting interesting. Keep going." said Graham in a funny voice and leaned in to Y/N.

"Oh come on! Don't start already." Y/N said rolling her eyes.

Draco had been looking at her for a while when she noticed his gaze. He was looking at them from across the corridor.

"Oh, so a date accompanied by me and you. I wouldn't call it a serious date tho." Graham laughed.

"Y/N?" Graham said.

Y/N was looking at Draco.

"Please Graham, I am doing this for Pansy. It's not that I fancy a night out with you, either." said teasingly Y/N.

Draco was still on her mind. She wondered if he was still standing there looking at them. She turned away for a moment to look at Draco only to find he was gone.

"Well, I'll talk to Adrian tonight and I am assuming he would be down for it. So I am saying this Friday night. Is it okay for you girls?" asked Graham.

"Yeah, I'll double check with Pansy. Oh, and Graham, please let me know after you talk with Adrian. I don't want any last-minute problems." said Y/N.

"Who would have guessed you'd be so serious about the dates Y/N?" said Graham mockingly.

"Well, technically it’s not my date. But I don’t want to risk it for Pansy." said Y/N walking away.

When Y/N entered the common room. She found The Sacred Seven sitting by the fireplace. She leaned in to Pansy and whispered "Be ready for Friday evening Pans. Your girl here got it all sorted."

Pansy screamed which caused everyone to shock.

"What now?" asked Blaise.

"Oh, it is nothing." Pansy answered.

Draco's face was stoned cold. He didn't show any expressions. It's not that he did that often, but Y/N wondered if it had something to do with her conversation with Graham earlier.

It was supposed to be a cozy night by the fireplace, sitting all together talking nonsense. But Draco threw cold looks to Y/N every now and then and it made the night unbearable. Y/N was unsure of what to do. She decided maybe it wasn't about her. Maybe Draco wouldn’t go too far since he knew Graham was Y/N’s friend since they were babies. She was not going to take it personally.

It was not until the midnight when they decided to go to their dorms. Pansy was wearing her heart on her sleeve since she heard the news from Y/N.

"Y/N? Can I talk to you in private for a second?" asked Pansy.

"Yeah, Pans, of course." Y/N answered. They walked towards the window, far from the fireplace where The Sacred Seven was sitting already.

"Yeah Pans? What is it?" said Y/N wondering.

"First of all, thank you for arranging the date with Adrian. I will be forever grateful." said Pansy.

"Oh? It's nothing Pansy. I am glad to help. And? That was it is all about?" asked Y/N.

"No actually. There is one other thing. This date. I know you and Graham are friends since you were babies. I can think of the possible gossip this double date will cause. But the later, the better. I just don't want anyone in our group to hear about this date, except Daphne you know. The boys will make fun of it and- you know they-" said Pansy in a rather sad tone.

"Oh Pans, don't worry about the boys. I won't tell them anything. Besides, it's none of their business." answered Y/N smiling.

"Thank you, Y/N.” said Pansy and they walked back to the fireplace.

 "So, if you mix the polyjuice potion with the Felix Felicis---" Theo was trying to make a point

"Oh. My. God. Just stop it Theo, we are not mixing anything.” said Daphne.

It was clear that she got enough of Theo's bullshit. Mattheo, Draco and Blaise was laughing so hard.

"Well, let's hope that you won't try it in potions, tomorrow." said Y/N laughing.

Next morning, Y/N and Daphne left their room while Pansy was still getting ready. It was a windy autumn morning. The trees of the Forbidden Forest  surrounding the school had already started to shed their colorful leaves, creating a vibrant carpet of reds, yellows, and oranges that covered the cobblestone paths. The aroma of earthy leaves and wood-burning fires from the castle's hearths was filling the air, creating a unique, autumnal ambiance.

"She will spent hours in front of the mirror just to get Pucey to notice her, won't she?" asked Daphne.

"Yeah, probably. But still, I want their date to be perfect tomorrow night so she can finally have what she wants." said Y/N.

"Yeah, quite a job you did there arranging the date." Daphne said looking at Y/N.

"Yeah, tell me about it. Hope Graham wouldn't make fun of it for the rest of our lives." Y/N said laughing. When Y/N and Daphne entered the Great Hall, they saw the boys were already having their breakfast.

"Morning, morning." said Mattheo.

"Good morning guys." Y/N said.

After a short while, it was time for the Defense Against the Dark Arts class. Luckily they all had the same class. Which was a opportunity for Y/N to figure out what was wrong with Draco last night.

However, he seemed normal this morning. Nothing more, nothing less, just normal.

The Sacred Seven was headed to the Defence Against the Dark Arts classroom. Class started as soon as they sat in pairs. As the lesson began, the Professor addressed the class, "Today, we delve into the intricacies of countering the Imperius Curse, one of the Unforgivable Curses. You must be prepared for any situation where your willpower may be tested. The ability to resist and overcome this curse could be a matter of life and death." This was an important topic.

The classroom's atmosphere remained intense, but it was clear that these students were not just learning to defend themselves; they were preparing to protect others from the darkest of magical threats.

After the class Y/N, Pansy and Blaise decided to go out to get some fresh air. However, after a short walk, Y/N was pulled away by Graham.

"Hey! Can we talk for a minute?" he asked.

"Sure." Y/N answered.

They were walking through the corridors of Hogwarts.

"So, I talked to Adrian." Graham said.

"So? Please, don't tell me he said no." Y/N said in a rather concerned voice.

"Oh, no. He is pretty interested in Parkinson actually. So our little double date is going to happen. Without a doubt." Graham said.

"Oh, thanks Salazar. Otherwise, Pansy wouldn't shut up about it for weeks." Y/N chuckled.

"You know, you are lucky to have me as a friend." Graham said in a rather snobby tone.

"No need to praise yourself now, Montaque." Y/N rolled her eyes.

"Since when do you call me Montaque? It is Graham to you, you know, it's your father's privilege." he says.

"Oh? So just my father's?" Y/N asked mockingly.

Graham throws his hand around Y/N's shoulder and addresses her "You know you are one of my favorite Slytherin girls. I know you since you were a baby." said Graham, still walking with his hand over Y/N's shoulder.

"Snobby, aren't you?" Y/N said mocking him.

In that moment they heard a sharp intake of breath. Y/N turned her back to look and saw Draco walking behind them with Theo.

"Oh, didn't see you guys there." Graham said.

"Apparently." said Theo while throwing a glance at Draco.

Draco furrowed his eyebrows and hissed. "Whatever." said looking away.

"So, thanks again, Graham. I'll see you around?" Y/N said stuttering. Graham left, nodding his head. She was afraid that Draco saw Graham's arm around Y/N. Well, the worst was yet to come, Y/N didn't know it just yet.

"So Y/N, being one of Graham's favourites from Slytherin must be flattering. Huh? Isn't it?" said Draco mocking. He rolled his eyes at Y/N. "Carrying you around like some kind of trophy in his arms? What a gentleman is Montaque." added Draco.

So he not only saw his arms around her but he also heard Graham's words towards Y/N.

And Draco was non-stop talking about Y/N's interaction with Graham. This was the first time Draco was this reactive. His reactions were getting out of hand and he was eventually stopped by Theo. "Cool down, dude." said Theo to Draco.

Draco scoffed.

Well, this was new. 

"Theo, may I talk to Draco alone please?" Y/N asked politely.

Theo nodded and walked away.

Draco still wouldn't look Y/N in the eyes.

"Dray?" she asked.

No answer.

"D-Dray?" she asks again.

"Don't Dray me now, Y/N." Draco said, anger in his voice causing Y/N to stutter.

"I-I- just….What's the problem then Draco?" Y/N asked.

"There is no problem. Everything is fine." Draco said rolling his eyes.

"Oh come on! Why are you so hard on me lately?" Y/N asked as if she didn't know the answer.

"I am not hard on you. I am not the one who's making things harder." Draco looked away again.

"Making things harder? I don't understand." Y/N's heart was beating too fast.

"Why is Montaque so clingy to you? He should take his dirty hands off of you. Or else." he finishes.

"I'm sorry Draco? He is my friend." Y/N answered, sensing Draco's jealousy.

"Well, then he should act like it. Who is he to touch you? Hell, who is he to lay a finger on you?" Draco was getting angrier each minute.

"I didn't know that you hated him that much." Y/N said, unsure of what will happen next.

"He does not mean anything to me. But I will go out of my way to make him sorry for being this close to you, if I have to." Draco said in a rather serious tone.

"You will?" Y/N asked.

"Yeah, I will Y/N." he answered.

"No need tho, he is a friend. That's all he'll ever be." Y/N assured. Draco and Y/N started walking towards the Slytherin common room.

But this time, Draco was different. He was walking extremely close to Y/N and his hand almost touched Y/N's. Tension between them could be sensed from miles away. A quite tense walk ended with them entering the common room. However, Y/N was never going to forget how jealous and protective Draco got of her. And he almost held her hand, for the first time. For the first time in eternity.

In The Middle Of A Betrayal, There is Love

- draco malfoy-

Pairing: Draco Malfoy x Slytherin Reader

Summary: Draco saves you and finds his way back to you.

Warnings: Breakup, Bellatrix Torture, Angst with a happy ending.

Word Count: 3.5k

Author’s Note: Feel free to give feedbacks & requests.

“Now is really not a good time Y/N.” Y/N has lost the count of times that she heard these words came out of Draco’s mouth in this past couple of weeks.

 He was cold, distant, and bothered. Almost like bothered by her presence.

She has never felt this particular way during their 10-month long relationship or their 16-year long friendship.

Sound of Draco’s feet walking away from her was nothing but an unbearable ache in Y/N’s chest since he started acting this way. Without wasting time, she walked away as quickly.

There she was, walking alone to the Astronomy Tower. A place once belonged to Draco and Y/N, as their hiding spot. Whenever things got too heavy, they always found their way back each other which led them to spend countless nights talking at Astronomy Tower.

“I think I'd rather pitch myself of the Astronomy Tower if I thought I had to continue here for another two years.” his exact words echoed in her ear.

With the rise of the Dark Lord, a lot has changed for Draco and Y/N’s family. Y/L/N’s was as upper class as Malfoys was. They were amongst the Sacred Twenty-Eight and they had a long line of pure blood witched and wizards in the family line. Their loyalty was to no one but Dark Lord.

Although Y/N had nothing to do with the dark side, her faith was intertwined with it. She just didn’t know it,yet.

She knew one day Draco would take over Lucius’s work, but she would have never guessed that he would push her away. And she also didn’t know that she was going to pay for her own father’s actions. Yet.

As she heard footsteps, it was nobody else than Theodore Nott. Y/N’s best friend.

“Theo” Y/N said in a shaky voice.

“Oh, Y/N, what’s wrong? Are you okay?” Theo asked in a worried voice.

There was no one else who understood Y/N better than Theo did. So, she just spilled the truth.

“Draco, he is- he has been distant and cold, and I don’t know what to do about it.”

Theo was also a death eater. That he already got the mark. Y/N didn’t know it, just yet.

Little did he know, Theo was there for Draco when he received his mark. Little did he know, he had to lie to Y/N to protect her. As commanded by her father. It was just like the old times. Y/N’s father asked Theo to watch over her. But this time not from enemies, but for themselves.  

“Y/N just give him time. He is going through a though time.” Said Theo.

“I know, Theo. ”

“Still, he has been so distant to me for so long, I can’t remember when this all started. It is that long and he is barely speaking to me.” Just when Y/N finished her sentence, Draco approached to them.

The look in his eyes were obvious. Things were coming to an end between Y/N and Draco. It’s just that Draco would have been the one to speak it up.

“Hi Draco, and goodbye. I have to go check something.” Said Theo.

As if he ran away from the breakup between his two friends. As if he ran away from what he has been expecting for some time now.

“Hi” Draco said.

“Hi Draco.” Y/N said.

The rest was predictable. Draco called it quits that night. All I could say is, you could rip all the skin from both of their bones, and it would hurt them less. I leave the rest to your imagination.

Y/N was stuck in the moment she lost him. She could see the breakup coming, but she never would have thought she wouldn’t be able to breathe again. It took everything in her not to fall apart in front of him.

She walked and walked until she reached the Slytherin dungeons. The night was silent. No one was in the common room as she headed to her dorm. As she entered her dorm, Y/N let out a deep sigh. Memories of her time with Draco flooded her mind, making her heart ache with longing. She sat on her bed and buried her face in her hands, trying to suppress the tears that threatened to spill.

Meanwhile, Draco was struggling with his own demons. He had been tasked by Voldemort to complete a dangerous mission, one that could cost him his life. He knew that he couldn't involve Y/N in this, no matter how much he loved her. He had to break things off to keep her safe.

Days turned into weeks, and Y/N tried to hold on as best she could. She went to her classes, but her heart wasn't in it. She missed Draco terribly, but she didn't know where to find him. Meanwhile, Draco skipped almost all of his classes, disappearing for hours on end. Still his ass was always saved by Professor Snape, everytime.

As Y/N was going through the worst weeks of her life, her only anchor was Theo. Her best friend was here for her as he always was.  

“Mate, she is not doing well.” A voice echoed in an empty classroom.

“Oh really Theo? Do you really think that I can’t see that?” Draco said.

“DO YOU KNOW HOW FUCKING MUCH I WANT TO BE WITH HER RIGHT NOW?” Draco finally lost it.

“Draco, listen to m-“ Theo was interrupted.

“NO THEO, YOU FUCKING LISTEN TO ME! DON'T GO AROUND LECTURING ME, YOU SAW WHAT I HAVE BECAOME, HELL YOU ARE NO DIFFERENT THAN I AM.”

Draco was in tears.

"Just keep her safe, will you?"

“Of course man, she is my best friend, I knew her before you did.” Said Theo in a comforting voice.

“Y/N” shouted Daphne “Come!”

“How are you holding up?” Daphne asked

“Fine, I guess.” Y/N answered.

“You know, Draco hasn’t even blinked since you sit at the table. His eyes are all on you.” Daphne said in a rather comforting voice.

“Daphne stop. I don’t want to talk about him.”

“Whatever.” Said Daphne.

“Y/N Y/L/N” said Professor Snape. “Your mother is waiting for you in Dumbledore’s office.”

“What?” Y/N was in shock.

The whole group was in shock. It is not common for parents to come to Hogwarts. Actually, they never did.

“Hurry Miss Y/L/N.” Snape insisted.

As Y/N was walking to Dumbledore’s office she heard a familiar voice.

“Y/N” said Theo, stopping her halfway. “I heard that your mom is here, everything alright?”

“I don’t think so. Something must be wrong or else she wouldn’t have come all the way from London.” Y/N answered.

“My father what??” Y/N was in total shock.

“He betrayed the Dark Lord. Now they are looking for us everywhere. We gotta run.” Said Y/N’s mom, trembling.

“Mum, what are you talking about?” Y/N was still trying to understand what happened.

Y/N’s father was working for the Dark Lord, she knew he had the dark mark. But still, what could he have possibly done to betray him?

"We don't have time for all the details now," Dumbledore interjected. "The important thing is that you and your mother need to leave Hogwarts immediately. You're not safe here."

And just like that, Y/N found herself packing her stuff in her dorm room with her mum.

“Mrs. Y/L/N, it is a pleasure to see you here.” Said Pansy.

“Hello, darling.” Y/N’s mum answered. “Sweetie, we got to get going.” She said to Y/N.

“Going? Where?” asked Pansy in a shock.

“Pansy darling, you and Y/N can catch up later. We don’t have much time left.” Mrs. Y/L/N was shaking.

“One last time” Y/N thought. “I need to see Draco one last time.” She said to her mum.

“Sorry, we have to go now.” Mrs. Y/L/N insisted.

And just like that, they were gone.

Not so long after the word has spread. Narcissa owled Draco saying Y/N’s father has betrayed the Dark Lord and Dark Lord is looking for Y/N and her mum everywhere to get back at her father. Bellatrix was helping them, as well. News was traveling fast around Hogwarts. Y/N’s father’s betrayal was the topic all the student were talking about.

The consequences of betraying the Dark Lord were dire, and for Y/N and her mum, the price was high. Betrayal meant a lifetime of running, hiding, and living in fear.

They had been living in hiding for days, constantly on the move, never staying in one place for too long.

But they were caught off guard when a group of Death Eaters found them in the forest one night. Y/N and her mother had been camping, thinking that they were safe for the moment. But the Death Eaters had been tracking them, and they attacked without warning.

Y/N and her mother fought bravely, but they were no match for the skilled Death Eaters. They were quickly overpowered and taken captive.

As they were dragged away, Y/N could see the fear in her mother's eyes. She knew that they were facing an uncertain fate, and she was terrified for both of them. But she also knew that they had to be strong, that they had to find a way to survive no matter what lay ahead.

They were then taken to Malfoy Manor, a place that had become notorious for being a hub of Death Eater activity. As Y/N was being dragged into the Malfoy Manor, she couldn't help but feel a sense of familiarity wash over her. She had grown up with Draco and the Malfoys, and the grandeur of the mansion was a sight she had seen many times before. However, this time was different. This time, she was being taken in as a prisoner, and she knew that her past relationship with Draco would not do her any favors.

As she was led to the dungeon by some low-ranked Death Eaters, she saw Narcissa and Lucius Malfoy waiting for her. The looks on their faces were a mix of curiosity and contempt. Y/N could feel their eyes scrutinizing her, and she knew that they were aware of the danger Y/N and her mum was in. She couldn't help but wonder if that was the reason why they had come for her.

Lucius sneered at Y/N and her mother. "What a disgrace to the pureblood name," he spat. "Betraying the Dark Lord, how could you? You and your father have brought shame upon our community."

As Narcissa watched Lucius mock over Y/N and her mother, she couldn't help but feel a deep sadness. She had known Y/N's mother for years and considered her a close friend. The thought of her being subjected to such cruel treatment made her sick to her stomach. She had always felt uneasy about the Death Eaters, but her loyalty to her family had kept her silent.

Eventually, Bellatrix arrived, accompanied by several other Death Eaters. Y/N and her mother could feel the fear creeping up inside of them as they realized that they were about to be tortured. Bellatrix was known for her cruel and sadistic nature, and they knew that they were in for a terrible ordeal.

Bellatrix sneered at Y/N, "Well, well, well. Look who we have here. Draco's precious little girlfriend. Or should I say ex-girlfriend? Accompanied by her pureblood, posh mum. Oh and she is a dear friend of my sister Cissy." She laughed mockingly as Y/N gritted her teeth. "How does it feel to know that the boy you loved is now a loyal servant of the Dark Lord? Bellatrix addressed towards Y/N.

Y/N clenched her fists, her nails digging into her palms. She wanted to lash out at Bellatrix, to scream and curse her, but she knew it would only make things worse. She had just learned that Draco is a death eater, as well.

As soon as he heard that Y/N and her mum was captured, Draco came back running to Manor. Knowing exactly what Death Eaters are capable of.

Draco rushed into the dungeon to see Bellatrix and several other Death Eaters surrounding Y/N, who was strapped to a chair, bruised and bleeding. It was written all over his face that he was scared. His heart sank at the sight, and he felt sick with fear and anger.

"What's going on here?" Draco demanded, his voice shaking with emotion.

Bellatrix turned to him with a sneer. "Ah, Draco, just in time. We were just getting started with your little ex-girlfriend here."

Draco's heart clenched at the mention of Y/N as his "ex-girlfriend." He knew he still loved her, despite everything that had happened between them.

What followed was a brutal and horrific scene, as Bellatrix and the other Death Eaters subjected the reader and her mother to various forms of torture. They were forced to endure the Cruciatus Curse, which sent waves of excruciating pain coursing through their bodies. They were also subjected to the Imperius Curse, which robbed them of their free will and left them completely at the mercy of their torturers.

Bellatrix stepped closer to Y/N, her wand still pointed at her. "Tell me, dear, why did you think it was a good idea to betray the Dark Lord?" she sneered.

Y/N clenched her jaw, refusing to answer. Bellatrix let out a cruel laugh. "Oh, I see. The little pureblood princess is too good to speak to me, is that it?"

Y/N gritted her teeth but remained silent.

Bellatrix continued to circle her; the tip of her wand tracing patterns in the air. "You know, I find it amusing that you were once Draco's girlfriend. It's quite the fall from grace, isn't it? From being the object of a Malfoy's affections to being a traitor."

Draco walked forward, his wand drawn, and faced Bellatrix with defiance. "You can't do this. She's not involved in any of this. Let her go."

Bellatrix laughed cruelly. "Oh, but she is involved. Her father has been conspiring against us for years. She knows things that could be very useful to us."

Draco's heart sank further at the realization that Y/N's family was involved in the Resistance. He knew this would only make things worse.

He stepped closer to Y/N, taking in the sight of her battered and bruised body. "Y/N, are you okay?" he whispered, his voice trembling with emotion.

Y/N looked up at him, her eyes filled with pain and fear. "Draco," she whispered, her voice barely audible.

Draco's heart broke at the sight of her, and he felt a wave of guilt wash over him. He knew he had to do something to save her. Draco's eyes flicked to Y/N's mother, who was also being held captive. "Please, Bellatrix, let them go. They have nothing to do with this."

"Please, Bellatrix, let her go," Draco pleaded again, his voice desperate. "They are not involved in any of this. I'll do whatever you want, just please, let them go."

Bellatrix looked at him with contempt. "You think you can save her? You think your love for her will protect her? How sweet."

Bellatrix pulled back, a wicked grin on her face. " We'll teach you the true meaning of loyalty." Addressed to Y/N.

Draco gritted his teeth, his anger boiling over. "I'll do whatever it takes. Just let her go."

Y/N closed her eyes, bracing herself for what was to come.

Draco’s voice quivered as he spoke, “Bellatrix, please, she’s innocent. Don’t hurt her.”

Bellatrix sneered, “Innocent? You forget, dear Draco, that she is a part of a family of blood traitors. She’s just like her father, a betrayer of our Lord.”

“But she’s not like him. She didn’t know anything about her father’s betrayal. She’s not involved in any of this,” Draco pleaded.

Bellatrix cackled, “Oh, how sweet. You still have feelings for her, don’t you? You still think she’s special.”

Bellatrix raised her wand, “Watch me.”

Draco stepped forward, “No, I won’t let you. If you want to torture someone, torture me.”

Y/N watched in disbelief as Draco stepped in front of her, shielding her from Bellatrix’s wand. Bellatrix laughed, “How noble of you, Draco. But I think we’ll have to do both of you. After all, what’s a little torture between star-crossed lovers?”

“No!” Narcissa shouted. “Draco, you stay out of this” Lucius added.

Y/N watched as Draco stepped closer to Bellatrix, his wand pointed at her. "I'm warning you, Bella. Let her go."

Bellatrix just laughed again. "Or what? You'll hex me? You don't have the stomach for it, Draco. You never have."

 Draco was being held back by both of his parents.

Y/N felt tears well up in her eyes as Bellatrix carved the word “traitor” on her arm. She couldn’t believe this was happening.

Through gritted teeth, Draco whispered to Y/N, “I’m sorry. I’m so sorry.” Draco was in tears.

Y/N'S mother was already unconscious, and she couldn't bear to see her suffer any longer.

As Bellatrix continued to torture them, Y/N and Draco exchanged glances filled with pain and regret. Despite everything that had happened between them, they both knew that they still cared for each other. But in the midst of the chaos and violence, it seemed like there was nothing they could do to save themselves.

Suddenly, there was a loud crack that echoed through the room. Everyone turned to see Dobby, the house-elf, apparate into the room. He was holding a small kitchen knife, but his eyes blazed with a fierce determination.

"You will not hurt Master Draco's friend!” he squeaked, brandishing the knife.

Bellatrix sneered at the tiny elf. "What do we have here? A little rat trying to play with the big cats?"

Dobby didn't flinch. "You will not touch Master Draco's friend and her mother!" he repeated.

Bellatrix laughed cruelly. "Oh, how adorable. And what are you going to do about it, little elf?"

Without warning, Dobby lunged at Bellatrix, brandishing the knife. Bellatrix was caught off guard, and stumbled backwards, giving Y/N and her mother an opportunity to run towards Draco.

Draco quickly took hold of their arms, leading them towards the fireplace. "Come on, we have to get out of here!" he urged.

But Bellatrix and the other Death Eaters weren't about to let them escape that easily. They started casting spells in their direction, trying to prevent their escape.

Dobby darted around the room, dodging curses and hexes. He was small and nimble, and surprisingly quick with the knife. He managed to keep Bellatrix and the others occupied long enough for Draco, Y/N, and her mother to make it to the fireplace.

As they made their way through the streets of London, with Dobby trailing behind them, Draco explained his plan to Y/N. "My aunt, Andromeda Tonks, lives in the Order of Phoenix Headquarters. We can go there and stay until we figure out what to do next."

As they stand in front of the Order of Phoenix Headquarters, Y/N turned to Draco, her eyes filled with fear and gratitude. "Thank you, Draco," she said, her voice shaking. "I don't know what would have happened if you hadn't been there."

Draco's heart swelled with love and relief. "I'll always be there for you, Y/N," he said, his voice soft. "I'll never let anything happen to you."

Y/N nodded, grateful for Draco's help. "Thank you, Draco. You're risking so much for us."

Draco smiled sadly. "I'll do anything to keep you safe, Y/N. I just hope it's not too late to make things right between us."

“I love you and I never meant anything to happen to you. I ended things to protect you.” Said Draco rather in a sad voice.

Y/N looked at Draco, tears streaming down her face. "You can't just protect me by pushing me away, Draco," she said, her voice breaking. "I love you too, and I can't bear the thought of losing you."

Draco's eyes softened as he reached out to cup Y/N's cheek. "I know, and I'm sorry," he said, his voice filled with regret. "I was so scared of losing you, of putting you in danger. But now, I realize that pushing you away was the worst thing I could have done."

Y/N leaned into Draco's touch, her heart pounding in her chest. "So what happens now?" she asked, her voice barely above a whisper.

Draco took a deep breath, his eyes locked on Y/N's. "Now, we start over," he said firmly. "Together. We face whatever comes our way, and we do it together. I love you, Y/N, and I never want to let you go again."

Y/N smiled through her tears, feeling the weight of the past lifting off her shoulders. "I love you too, Draco," she whispered, before leaning in for a kiss.

Author’s Note: It’s my first time writing, feel free to give feedbacks & request.

Slytherin common room was quiet on this particular night, saved for the sound of the fire crackling in the fireplace. The room was dimly lit, casting a warm, flickering light on the walls.

Y/N was sitting, peacefully by the fire all on her own until she heard his voice.

“Y/N”

With a look full of hesitation, she stared right into those grey eyes.

Oh, those grey eyes…

“Hey Draco!”

“What are you doing up this late?”

“Nothing, couldn’t sleep.”

“Come on, go to your dorm, don’t make me take any points from my own house.” Draco said, laughing.

“But I can’t sleep.” Y/N responded.

“My friends are such pain in the ass.”Draco whispered.

Yeah, your friend.

Y/N giggled.

Just when they were headed to stairs which led the way to their dorms, a familiar face appeared.

“Oh, hi Theo.” Y/N said to him.

“Oh for Merlin’s sake, this night is never going to end does it?” Asked Draco, looking tired.

“And goodnight to you too, Draco.” said Theo.

“I’m going to the Astronomy Tower, care to join?” Theo asked to both.

“Why not?” Y/N answered, hoping Draco would come.

“As your prefect I should lead you guys to your dorms, but as your friend I could really use a calming time with you guys.” Answered Draco.

Friend. There was that word again.

“Actually, I remembered that I have Snape’s potions in the morning and I could really use some sleep.” Y/N said without knowing why she wanted to get away from them- oh actually, Draco. Poor Theo had nothing to do with it. In fact he was always nice to Y/N, he was always a gentleman.

“As you wish.” Theo said.

“Are you sure?” Draco asked to Y/N.

“Yeah” Y/N answered, forcing a yawn to make believe she is sleepy.

She headed to girls dorm without looking back.

When she entered into her dorm room, Pansy and Daphne were already sleeping.

She looked at herself in the mirror, wondering why everytime Draco called her “a friend” her heart was shattered into pieces.

Y/N was distant to Draco lately. She was avoiding him at all costs. Whenever they sit together at a class, she would always ignore him, not in an arrogant way but in an cold way. Draco -being the smartest boy Y/N has ever seen- has started to realize this. He has been sensing that Y/N was drawing herself away from him for some time now.

But Y/N was forgetting something, she was the first person for Draco to come when he was feeling down. She was the first person that Draco writes to every summer. She was practically Draco’s closest but he never addressed her anything other than friend.

To him, “Draco and she was friends, nothing more. They just hang in the same group. Y/N was a friend to Draco as much as she was to Theo or Blaise.” Y/N thought to herself.

Y/N wanted to tell Draco how she felt, how she was longing for his touch without knowing how it feels, how she needs him. But there was too much at stake. She could lose Draco forever, she could lose the bond between them forever. So she decided to keep things to herself and keep her distance from Draco.

With so much going on in her head, Y/N went to her bed and fell asleep quickly.

Next morning wasn’t any different than others. The sun was shining into girls shared dorm.

“Oh! I can’t find my tie!” shouted Pansy in a hurry.

“Just check your desk, I saw it there last night.” said Daphne.

“Found it!” Pansy shouted again.

Y/N was still half asleep when Daphne came to her side and reminded her that if she didn’t want detention from Snape, she should be up in a minute.

She got ready in a hurry, causing her to forget her potions book in her dorm.

Girls entered the Great Hall for breakfast.

“Well, well, well.. If these aren’t the princesses of Slytherin.” Blaise said in a flirty tone.

“Morning.” said Theo.

And a simple smile from Draco.

Y/N smiled to Draco back and rolled her eyes to Blaise.

“Was he always like that?” Y/N asked. “Because if he was, I should really consider my friend choices.” she said in a laughy tone.

“Oh, if you call that a flirting, you should have seen Draco last night in the Astronomy Tower.” Theo said.

Of course, they weren’t alone. Of course, Theo was going to meet up with a girl last night and Draco wanted some company, as well.

“Shut it already Theo.” said Draco.

“Who is it this time Draco?” asked Pansy.

“Yes, tell us who the lucky lady was.” added Daphne.

Y/N was holding her tears back, not only because of Draco’s new girl but also she couldn’t believe how easily Draco affected her. He goes around flirting with other girls and Y/N ends up the one being hurt. How unfair Y/N thought to herself.

Y/N had seen nothing but pure love between her parents. She was raised the best way possible. Indeed, she was a pure blood, she came from a wealthy family - why else would Draco befriend her?- and she was pretty. She could pull of any guy she wanted. Any guy but him.

She could get any guy wrapped around her finger, any guy but the one with the grey eyes.

However, it was kind of funny how she was oblivious to Draco’s feelings. She meant everything to him, he would take her in a heartbeat if she said yes. His whole world revolving around her. Draco was the one to keep his feelings bottled up, that was for sure. But still, the fact that he cares about Y/N more than any other girl was obvious.

“Y/N?” asked Pansy.

No answer.

“Y/N!!??”

“Oh, sorry.” Y/N said.

“But you missed all the fun, Draco couldn’t even remember that girl’s name.” Said Pansy.

And just seconds later, everyone burst into laughter.

“Yeah poor girl must be thinking of Draco right now, but he doesn’t even remember her name.” said Daphne, giggling.

“ For Merlin’s sake! I only flirted with her so Theo could have his time with that girl’s friend.” Draco said in a serious tone staring to Y/N.

“Good boy, aren’t you?” said Y/N in a condescending tone which made Draco angrier.

It was safe to say that Draco stared into Y/N’s soul for a time which felt like an eternity for both.

Only if he knew what Y/N would do to be the one that Draco flirted- even if it is all fake.

“So now it is a staring contest?” asked Blaise laughing.

“No. And I dont even have the time for your - and I mean ALL of you- stupid crushes.” Y/N said.

“What? What crush are you talking about?” asked Draco.

“Shit! I must have left my potions book in my dorm” Y/N said. She was headed for dorm room.

Not long after, Y/N was pulled into an empty classroom.

“WHA-“ Y/N’s shout was interrupted.

“What is wrong with you?” asked Draco.

“I don’t know what you are talking abo-“ she was interrupted again.

“Oh, cut the bullshit already! You ditch on me and Theo last night and you have been off all morning?” asked Draco.

“I- erm- I am really worried about Snape’s class you know?” she lied.

“So this is what it’s all about.” said Draco. “I thought you were mad at me or something.” he added.

“You have been distant lately. It’s like one minute you are the center of the conversation, and you are gone in the next.” Draco said, worried.

“Told you, I have been struggling with potions.”

That was the best I could come up with? She thought to herself. I must be a disgrace to the house of Slytherin.

“I will help you, okay? Meet me in the library after dinner.” said Draco.

“No- I mean you dont have to.” she said.

“No, I need to fix whats bothering my best friend.” Draco winked.

Your WHAT? Now, we are best friends. If there is something worse than being friends with him existed then it would totally be being best friends with him.

“Come on, we need to get to class.” Added Draco.

Potions was boring for Y/N. Until Snape assigned the homework. A homework which was needed to be done with partners.

“I will assign your partners this time.” said Snape.

“Miss Granger, you are with Mr Longbottom.”

“Miss Y/L/N, you are with…..

“Mr Malfoy” Y/N prayed.

“Mr. Potter.” Snape said.

The anger in Draco’s eyes was visible, if not, it was felt by every single person in class. However, no one dared to state the obvious.

“Oh shit. Now it is getting interesting.” Blaise said to Theo.

“Yeah, just wait till the class is over and Draco starts whining about it.” said Theo.

As Harry walked closer to Y/N, Draco was already watching them.

Y/N and Harry greeted and started to talk about the project.

Whenever Y/N looked to Draco, he was already watching her.

But this time something was different. Draco’s eyes was not filled with the warmth that Y/N was used to see, instead it was filled with something she couldn’t name.

It was jealousy. So much jealousy that he could explode any minute now.

Slytherin group was already gone when Y/N and Potter realized that the class is over. As a matter of fact, everyone was gone and they were alone in the classroom.

“I must have lost the track of time.” said Y/N to Potter.

“Yeah. Seems we both did.” he agreed.

They rushed to outside.

“If Potter is that interesting, you can always go be his friend.” said Draco to Y/N. He has been standing outside the classroom waiting for Y/N, this whole time.

“What? We were just talking about the project.” said Y/N.

“Yeah? That must be the reason you couldn’t care to join your friends when leaving the class.” Draco said, angrily.

“Oh, possesiveness is a trait of yours, isn’t it?” Y/N asked mocking.

“Potter is my red line. Do. Not. Cross. It.” Draco said in the most serious tone possible, grabbing Y/N’s wrist.

“Too bad, he. İs my. Partner” Y/N said jokingly.

Little did they both knew, they had already crossed the red line in each other’s hearts.

“So, why do I even need to mix these things?”

“Like what on earth am I going to need these potion for?” Y/N asks, pretending to be oblivious to keep her lie going.

“Just try to memorize the ingredients and you will be okay.” Draco assured.

“Okay.” said knowing everything Draco has been telling her since the minute one.

“By the way, I really don’t understand why you stress over potions. You are the smartest witch I know.” said Draco lifting his eyebrows.

“I don’t know, it is not the class that stresses me, it is the professor. Snape is tense, you know?” Y/N shouted another lie.

“What? He is practically one of your father’s best friends. They’ve known each other since they were what? Like 11?” Draco asked.

“Yeah but still, he was always so intimidating.” Was Y/N’s answer.

“Truth to be told, I am his favourite, but you are not so bad yourself.” He said laughing.

“Well, I know he likes us, he is better to us than others.” Y/N said agrreing.

“See? He’s not so bad after all.” Draco said.

Rest of their study session went on as a chat session. Things was always so easy and calming between Y/N and Draco.

“Merlin, I missed talking to you about anything-“ Draco was interrupted by Y/N “Let’s leave, I have to check Gullygum.” Said Y/N, Anything to avoid this confrontation she thought.

“Gullygum? As your cat?”

“Yeah Draco, how many other Gullygums do you know of?” teased Y/N as she was packing her things.

The night was calm. As they were headed to Slytherin common room together the only sound which can be heard was their footsteps. As they pass by the torches lining the walls, the flickering light casts shadows that seem to dance across their faces. The sound of Draco’s breathing and the rustle of Y/N’s clothing as they walk creates a gentle white noise, as if the whole world has fallen away and it's just the two of them.

“So.” Draco said breaking the silence.

“Now tell me, why have you been so distant lately. And don’t ever think about lying to me because it is obvious you have no problem with classes.” Draco asked.

“Oh for fucks sake Draco, everything is fine. Friends don’t push each other like that.” Y/N stated, emphasizing the word friends.

“Yeah, friends.” whispered to himself Draco. But Y/N didn’t hear a thing for she was so tired with Draco pushing her to confess.

As the first beams of sunlight filtered through the small windows of the Slytherin dungeons, the house's green and silver shades appeared to come to life.

“Wake up! Today’s the day!” Daphne shouted to Pansy and Y/N.

“What day?” Y/N asked, half asleep.

“Are you serious? You forgot about it?” Pansy asked her.

“About what?”

“About the PARTY YOU SILLY!” Daphne shouted.

Oh, shoot. It’s today! The party which was organized by Daphne and Pansy, the party they couldn’t stop talking about.

The girls were already headed to Great Hall when Y/N was done dressing up.

As usual, the boys of Slytherin was waiting for their princesses at the table.

Pansy and Daphne wouldn’t stop talking about the party, how they have been planning this for weeks if not months.

In the middle of their conversation, an owl dropped a box to Y/N. The box had a letter.

You deserve the world. We love & miss you.

Mom & Dad.

And the letter made Y/N realize how homesick she was. She loved Hogwarts, she loved her friends and she loved her Draco but something about her parent’s letter made her miss her home. Maybe it was how the words they use reminded Mr and Mrs. Y/L/N’s relationship to their daughter. They had something Y/N admired. One day she dreams of having with Draco.

“Will you open it already?” said Blaise.

“Oh, let me just-“ she was interrupted by Pansy.

“OH. MY. GOD.” shouted Pansy.

“THAT MUST HAVE COST A FORTUNE.” said Daphne in a shock.

“This is so nice.” Said Draco.

“Aww, thank you guys. I must write them back as soon as I can.” Said Y/N heading towards the exit of the Great Hall.

“I envy how your father cares about you. I guess it is different when you are a girl.” Says a familiar voice.

“OH- You scared me.” Said Y/N shaking.

“Just cool darling.” Said Draco.

“I got this memory of us kids in my head. When we both fell of our broomsticks how your father ran towards you and mine just mocked me.” Said Draco.

“Oh, Dray, I’m sure you are remembering wrong.” Y/N said.

“Yeah, maybe.” Draco said.

The rest of the day went on as usual, the classes and stuff. In the evening there was a rush in girls dorm. Y/N had already picked her dress and she was getting ready for the party when she heard a knock on the door.

“Do you think you can help me with my tie- WHOA.. You look..erm- pretty.” Said Draco. “Heavenly” he whispered to himself.

“Oh, thank you. Yes I sure can.” Y/N said leaning towards him.

There was an undeniable tension and chemistry between them. Their lips were just inches apart. Draco’s grey eyes were fixated on Y/N’s eyes. The more they stay this close, the more Y/N’s hand shook. This was the closeness they were both longing for. It was almost like Draco didn’t want to let her go. Almost.

“So, I was thinking that we can go to party together since I am already here.” Said Draco.

“Yeah, yeah let me just grab my purse.” Y/N agreed.

The Slytherin common room was transformed into a grand party hall, decorated with green and silver banners, glittering streamers, and shining orbs that floated above the dance floor. The room was alive with the sound of music, laughter, and clinking of glasses, as the students of Slytherin danced and chatted, all in their finest clothes. The grand staircase leading to the upper levels of the castle provided the perfect stage for the hosts to make their grand entrance, clad in their finest robes and basking in the admiration of their guests. It was a Slytherin party atmosphere unlike any other, full of luxury, power, and excitement.

Draco instinctively put his hand on Y/N’s back, like he wanted to show everyone who she belonged to. Y/N was shivering for she was longing Draco’s touch for some time now.

Not so long after, a group of Slytherins decided to play the game of spin the bottle. Y/N and Draco were among the group, both secretly hoping the bottle would point to each other.

As the game progressed, the bottle spun round and round, landing on various members of the group. Finally, it was Y/N’s turn. The bottle spun and spun, seeming to take forever to come to a stop. When it finally did, it was pointed towards Cedric Diggory, who grinned eagerly.

Without a second thought, Cedric leaned in for a kiss. Y/N closed her eyes, allowing the kiss to happen.

Draco, who had been watching the entire thing with a scowl, could feel his anger about to boil over. He didn't know why he felt so strongly about Y/N , but he did, and seeing her kiss someone else fueled a fire deep within him.

“My turn.” said Blaise eagerly.

“I am going to call it a night.” said Draco not even glancing a side eye to Y/N.

Guilt was growing inside Y/N’s heart. But she didn’t have any choice. It was all a game after all.

Rest of the party was a usual Slytherin party. With the shock of Draco leaving the party so early, Y/N decided to call it a night, as well.

Next morning, Y/N wanted to see if Draco is doing okay. So before heading to Great Hall for breakfast she decided to stop by Draco’s dorm.

As she knocked on the door, a girl she didn't recognize opened the door of Draco's room.

“Hello?” She asked

“Who is it?” Draco shouted.

“Um-I wanted to-um…” Y/N was stunned. For a moment, she thought she can actually heart the breaking noise of her heart.

Draco came to the door and when he saw Y/N standing, he was frozen. It was clear that he spent the night with this girl.

“We can talk later.” Said Y/n, heartbroken, and jealous at the same time.

She was holding her tears back while walking to Great Hall. Not angry but heartbroken.

Just when she sat to breakfast, she felt a familiar voice approaching.

“Hey, Y/N.” said Cedric.

“Hi Cedric.” said Y/N.

“Is not that the guy she kisses last night?” asked Blaise.

Daphne nodded.

“Can I talk to you in private?” Cedric asked.

“Sure.”

They were headed to the exit of the Great Hall when Y/N felt Draco’s eyes on her when he was walking by.

“So, what is it that you want to ask?” Y/N said.

“I know this might sound ridicolus but I can’t stop thinking about our kiss last night. I was wondering if you would like yo go on a date with me?” “If you would give us the chance to get to know each other better.” Asked Cedric, hesitation can be seen from all over his face.

With the jealousy and broken heart, Y/N didn’t even think for a moment.

“ Yes Cedric.” she smiled.

“Oh, I’m happy now. I will pick you up after dinner tomorrow, so we can go for a drink at Hogsmeade?”

“Sounds like the perfect date.” nodded Y/N.

It clearly was an impulsive decision. It. Clearly. Was. Cedric didn’t even catch Y/N’s attention for once. Except last night, when she had to kiss him. She didn’t had the choice unlike Draco. Draco had the choice to not drag a girl to his dorm.

“What did he want?” Asked Pansy.

“A date.” Y/N answered.

“ A DATE?” Pansy shouted. “Not a chance” she added.

“Actually, I-“ Y/N was imterrupted.

“ Oh no you didn’t” Pansy said.

“ Sure as hell, I did.” Y/N said walking to class.

The next day went on as quickly. Y/N was getting ready for her date when it crossed her mind that she hadn’t seen Draco over a day. For them, it was a record. They were practically inseperable. Not so long ago, at least.

Y/N was headed to Great Hall to meet Cedric when she looked up and saw Draco, Theo and Pansy was sitting by the fireplace just chatting casually.

“Ready for you date?” Pansy asked which caused Draco to look at Y/N angrily.

“What date?” Theo responded.

“Oh, didn’t you hear, she is going on a date with Diggory,” Pansy answered.

“Lucky man got to steal our girl, didn’t he Draco?” Said theo.

Draco didn’t respond, he just nodded. As far as anyone can see, he was devastated.

As Y/N got back from her date, it was already pass midnight. The castle was so quiet as she walked to the dungeons of Slytherin. Y/N opened the door to the common room, only to find out Draco sitting where she left him hours ago.

The fireplace crackling sound in the midnight echoes throughout the empty Slytherin common room, adding an eerie quality to the scene. The pops and crackles of the fire seem to reverberate off the walls, creating an almost hypnotic rhythm that feels both calming and unsettling.

Did he waited for her to get back from her date?

As he waits, he stares into the flames, lost in thought. The sound of the fire is the only thing that breaks the silence of the room, and it's as if the fire is the only company he has.

The sound of the fire crackling is also a reminder of the late hour, creating a sense of intimacy and secrecy that seems fitting for the moment.

As Draco waits for you to return, the sound of the fire crackling grows softer and more gentle. It's as if the fire is signaling that something new is about to happen, that a new chapter is about to begin.

“I know I messed up.” said Draco in a rather sad voice.

“I know it should have been me who took you on this date.” he added.

The sound of the fire becomes louder and more chaotic, mirroring the rush of feelings that Y/N is experiencing. It crackles and pops, adding a layer of intensity to the moment. The flames seem to grow brighter, casting an orange glow across the room and making everything feel more dramatic.

Despite the chaos of the fire, Draco's words are clear and heartfelt.

“I know it should have been me who gets to call you his girlfriend.” he finally looked up to Y/N who was in a total shock.

“Draco” she whispered.

“I love you, Y/N Y/L/N.” he whispered. “I have always loved you and only you.”

“And I love you Draco Malfoy.” she added. “I have always waited for you and only you.”

hogwarts house aesthetics

gryffindor: flushed cheeks, eager eyes. lips that talk a mile a minute and thoughts that run rampant. skulls are cells and words are the prisoners inside. notions, feelings, fire, burning through all that exists. being the strongest, the brightest, the star that lights up the world as it falls. parties, common rooms, quidditch matches where only adrenaline is needed to get a high. hands that never tremble except for in private, feet that walk the wrong way with pride outlining each step. hearts that thump like drums, even when the quiet is suffocating. silence being the enemy, for truth comes in the breaths outside of calamity. more, more, more, because what's existence without indulgence? late nights that end too early and early mornings that you wish ran late. there is more to life than surviving, and to live means to fight.

hufflepuff: kind smiles, gentle touches. knowing the ins and outs of every situation, nimble fingers weapons against destruction. loyalty, hard work, doing the right thing even when it hurts. indulging in wrong things for the sake of others. knowing that people exist, walk the earth, have minds and souls and hearts that synchronize like symphonies. the world needs more goodness, and change starts at the fingertips of the observant. vines and greenhouses, the smell of dew and grass and petrichor. the soft pulse that licks at your throat, steadies in your ears. secrets whispered behind hands and feet bumping feet under tables. pinkies that link and eyes that shine. being one with your environment, because inner-peace doesn't have to be boring. friendship, above all else, because why live when you can love?

ravenclaw: long nights and cold mornings. ink-stained fingertips and the smell of old parchment. couches and comforters and cleaning out a soul by stuffing it with more. the mind is a weapon, and to be the best, you have to earn it. words that are never-ending but all too short. blankets sewn from dreams and wishes, a fantasy to rock one to sleep. stars that glint and moons that guide. lips that are chaste and loud, rivalry to the bone. rumbling stomachs because knowledge is food, and everyone needs sustenance. kisses shared in dark libraries and darker corners. secret glances through stacks and shaking hands with threaded fingers. earl grey tea and rainy thursday evenings. the lust for knowledge of any kind, because life is too short to not learn all you can. questions that earn reprimands and dares that earn regret. pushing and pulling and taking and testing, because the power you taste on your tongue is sweet.

slytherin: competitions, fights, winning. no pauses, no breaks, no breaths. ambition that knocks around in the skull, filling one with a unique sort of drive. tongues like snakes and curses like monsters. be what others fear, so they may never test what terrifies them. poker games and firewhisky—injuries healed by subconscious affection. trust in your friends, but even more in your enemies. to be one's greatest critic, even when it hurts. cold fingers and warm pockets, the perfect size for hiding held hands. observing, understanding, strategizing. pros and cons and lists that never end. knowing what you want, how you want it, where you want it. and even if you don't know what it is, you do understand that you will get it. silk sheets and old tomes, runes like precious art. drawing temporary tattoos on skin, being we are ever-changing, and you mustn't be stagnant. sarcasm and spitting insults, the sensation of superiority when surrounded by friends. sympathy is good, but never to share. be quiet, be discreet, be the best.
