Malfoy; My Brother's Best Friend

The News

Draco

Almost two months had passed since I saw her. I needed to see her again, so I decided to go see her today because my mom and Ricky were going to be out today.

I packed up a small bag with some books and other things just in case I needed it. I appartated to the entrance of the town and began to walk down the street towards the main portion of the town.

I sat down at a table in the corner of the restaurant and pulled out a new muggle book, Romeo and Juliet. L always loved reading poetry and that was one of her favorites.

"Hi, what can I get started for you?" L walked up to the table, her brown hair was pulling into a half up half down. She had a little bit of makeup on her face, she had eyeliner on and a dark red lipstick on. She walked heavy on her feet and dragged them as she walked, I could tell that she wasn't doing well right now.

But when her eyes met mine she lit up and smiled.

"I'll just have a coffee with cream."

"Okay, I'll put that order in. If you would like anything else just ask."

She walked away with a little bit more pep in her step. It gave me butterflies knowing that when she was happier once she saw me.

He was there, his gray eyes and blonde hair immediately gave me a sense of familiarity. He made me feel at home.

But stop thinking like that, you are dating Hudson.

But there was just something about him that I couldn't get out of my head.

"I need a coffee with cream for table 4." I yelled to the kitchen.

I waited for the coffee to be ready, I just watched him read.

He was reading one of my favorite books, Romeo and Juliet. I tried to tell myself it was just a coincidence but it felt like a sign or something.

I had gotten so distracted I didn't even notice Hudson walk up behind me.

"Why are you looking at him?"

"Oh hey Hudson, I didn't see you. I'm not looking at him, I'm looking at his book." He and I both knew that was a lie, "It's my favorite book."

"Stop lying." He stormed off to take another table's order.

I saw that the coffee was ready, so I delivered it to his table.

"Here you go, is there anything else I can get you?"

"No thank you."

"Okay, I saw your book. It is one of my favorite books."

"Me too, I also really love To Kill a Mockingbird. A friend of mine introduced it to me a while ago and ever since I constantly read it."

"Ha, seems we have quite a bit in common."

"It does seem that way."
