FORBIDDEN (Draco Malfoy X Reader)

CHAPTER 31

I enjoyed my time at Hogsmeade with Draco, even though I couldn't remember a thing. I could tell he was hurting. Constantly thinking about things. He was trying to push things out of his mind for me, and I wanted to know what it was. I never pushed though. Sometimes Draco was like a ticking time bomb and you didn't want to ask too many questions.

We slowly made our way back, hand in hand, again. I had a feeling I knew who he was to me. However it was quite clear something went wrong, and he felt bad for it, he clearly blamed himself, that's why he wasn't telling me.

"I'm sorry" Draco said.

"For what?" I asked, confused at his sudden outburst.

"I should have just told you" He mumbled.

"Its fine, I'll find out eventually" I could tell he was struggling to apologise. Clearly not something he did. Clearly showed my suspicions were right.

We made our way up the hill to Hogwarts. It was nice and peaceful, something that didn't happen often. We slowly walked back towards the common room, not wanting to face everyone in there.

However we finally arrived and I was suddenly surrounded by teachers, and a potion was being forced down my throat and I was on the floor, and everything went black.

DRACO'S POV

She was on the floor. Her body convulsing in pain. I don't know what they had done but they were all pulling me back so no one was surrounding her. The walls started to shake and her eyes flashed black for a second. And then it all stopped. She was still. For a split second I panicked that she was dead, but then I could see her chest heaving up and down for air.

"What did you do ?" I asked, still shocked.

"Exactly what you wanted", Snape drawled, "Got her memories back".

I went over and bent over her body that was still lying on the floor. She was clearly dazed, but at least she was conscious. I picked her up and took her to my room so that I could keep an eye on her, god knows what the side effects are.

"I'm so sorry Draco" she mumbled as I pulled my covers over her.

I knelt on the ground beside her, "Don't be ridiculous, this isn't your fault"

"It isn't yours either"

I ran my fingers through her hair and sat beside her until she fell asleep. I was scared. I wasn't sure how long I had left with her, bad things were coming my way and I couldn't drag her into it. However when I pulled away she still ended up hurt. I tried to keep her safe and she still managed to hurt herself.

I had no idea what to do with myself. Once I was sure she was asleep, I got up and sat on the little couch opposite my bed and watched her.

We had little time left of fifth year, meaning I had very little time left with Y/N. I had to make the most of it.

I crawled into bed beside her and she instantly turned over and buried her head in my chest and intertwined her legs with mine. she was warm and I was cold.

"I love you Draco" She mumbled against me.

I carried on running my fingers through her hair not uttering a word. If I said it would ruin everything.

It would ruin her.
