Obliviate {Draco Malfoy}

Chapter 2

It's safe to say, while in the heat of the moment, one can be entitled to acting rather...carelessly.

Well...I can be entitled to acting rather carelessly.

And so, once I heard Dumbledore's confession, I became enraged in a way I never thought he'd make me feel before. I was angry, so I didn't hesitate twice in giving him a piece of my uncensored thoughts.

Therefore, after screaming at the head master, I hadn't really realized what I've just put myself through...until I heard the door slam behind us with a loud bang.

I really just did that...I really just shouted in the headmaster's face...

I felt the color drain from my face as it sank in. Holy shit! I'm in so much fucking trouble! What the hell was I thinking?!

If that wasn't enough, an awkward silence between Draco and I followed, one I should've seen coming the moment I didn't protest from him to come along.

Draco and I moved our gaze away from each other, both clearly uncomfortable by one another's presence. My heart is thumping against my chest like the bass of a drum, and I can't quite figure out if it's due to the sudden nerves taking over me, or the anger still pumping through my hot veins.

Before I could make up my mind, though, Draco began to walk, and I quickly followed him. I'd be lying if I said I wasn't a bit frightened of walking the dark hallways without adult supervision, which quite frankly only makes my anger rise. I'm convinced Dumbledore wants to kill me. There's just no other explanation for why he'd act so recklessly, and even after what just happened with my uncle he' still sending me to roam the halls without himself by my side. It just fills me with rage just by thinking about it. He deserved for me to yell at him That careless old rag!

Our shoes clicked against the polished concrete, as Draco and I silently walked down the corridor. We roamed side by side, yet while keeping at least 6 feet apart from each other. My gaze is fixed on the floor, too nervous to glance his way.

The more we walked, the further the tension between us expanded. It didn't take long before Draco's company distracted me from Dumbledore's words, and soon enough my mind travelled towards another frustration I'm currently facing.

I want to ask him so many questions, yet I can't bring myself to. I wish he'd break the silence for once, it would make things a whole lot easier. But judging by how he's been acting ever since we broke up, I know he'd never do such a thing. It's up to me.

Or at least I thought it was, until a sudden clank echoed loudly through the hallway, making me jump. Draco's gaze immediately shot up from the ground, his eyes going wide in alarm as we both stopped dead in our tracks.

"What was that?" I asked, frightened, my eyes scanning the empty hallway in a panic.

"What the hell do I know? I'm standing right next to you" Draco said, his voice sounding rather calm, yet his eyes said a complete different story. He's definitely just as frightened as I am, but would rather die than actually show it.

"I don't know. You could've seen something I didn't" I said, annoyed by his attitude. I don't understand, if he's going to act like a brat then why the hell is he even here? God I'm just dying to know the answer to that question.

We both kept eyeing the hallway in suspicion, both too scared to move.

"I'm literally standing right next to you, Grimaldi. I don't have supervision, you know?" He snapped, making me roll my eyes to the back of my head. I'm not in a good mood already, and he's just making it ten times worse.

"It was just a question!" I said, throwing my hands up in defense.

"Yeah well a very useless one" Draco spat, making my inner parts twist with anger. I shouldn't be treated like this by him. After everything he's done to me, he should at least show a little remorse, not treat me like I was the asshole. I spun to face him, which seemed to catch him off guard. His gaze snapped towards me in surprise, my eyes narrowing in annoyance.
