Unforgettable (D.M.)

Chapter 10: Happy with you

I walk into the bathroom and I splash some water on my face. I grab the sides of the skink and squeeze my eyes shut. I shake my head as a certain blonde headed boy creeps into my mind. I bite my bottom lip as I see him turn his head to look at me and a smile appears on his lips. I feel myself smiling as well, but then his smile slowly fades and he shakes his head and starts walking away.

"No, please don't go." I beg but his image starts fading away and tears build up in my eyes.

"Please Draco, I'm so sorry. I didn't mean to hurt you." I whimper, but it doesn't matter because his image completely fades and it's pitch black.

"Maya?" I hear someone's voice, I open my eyes and I see in the mirror, Hermione is standing behind me. I turn around and I look at her worried face.

"Are you ok?" She questions, and I nod.

"Yeah, I'm fine. Let's go." I say and I walk out of the bathroom and she follows behind me. I'm not sure what that was. Something in me didn't want him to leave, just like last week, outside. I wanted to stop him and tell him that everything I said was a lie and that I did feel passion. There was more passion in our kiss then there was when Ron and I kissed, I just got scared and I pushed him away. The Malfoy's are not nice people, I grew up knowing that and if I find myself falling for Draco then everything I believed as a kid will be completely thrown off. I'd be going against everything my parents said. But I can't help the way I feel, there is something between Draco and I and there is no more trying to run away from it. I just need to go up to Draco and stand my ground, and if he still wants nothing to do with me then I know I can stop freaking about this.

"Are you sure you're ok? You look like you haven't slept in days." Hermione says, I look at her.

"Because I haven't. But that doesn't matter right now, I've got to go tell him where I stand." I say and Hermione gives me a confused look.

"Ron or Draco? Because it's kind of rocky between you and both of them." She tells me, I sigh. She's right, Ron and I haven't talked since he fought with Draco, which was weeks ago.

"Your right, I should talk to both of them." I answer and she nods. I smile and I walk to the slytherin common room. I need to talk to Draco first. Before I can walk in, Draco walks out and we come face to face, only a few inches between our chests.

"Um, hi." I say, awkwardly.

"Hi." He responds just as awkwardly, it's only been a week and we can't even have a normal "hi".

"I just wanted to-" I pause and he stares into my eyes, longly.

"This might be easier to say with actions." I say and grab a handful of his shirt and I pull him close to me and I press my lips against his. He hesitates to kiss back, but then goes with it after a few seconds. I deepen the kiss, not wanting to ever stop. I wrap my arms around his neck and his hands wrap around my waist and he turns us around, pressing my back against the door. He slips his hands off my waist and brings them up to cup my cheeks, kissing me passionately for a few more seconds before he pulls away but keeps his face close to mine. He backs his face slowly away and he sighs.

"As much as I liked that, last time you did this you told me that it made you realize you loved Ron." He says.

"Trust me, that won't happen this time. I did it to prove to myself and you that the passion between us is there. And it was there before, I was just scared." I tell him.

"Scared of what?" He questions.

"I don't really know, letting down Ron, letting down my parents, and most importantly letting myself down. At the start of first year I told myself I'd stay away from you, that I wouldn't get involved with a Malfoy but now that's all changed and I got scared. So my first instinct was to run and hide, but I'm done hiding now. You are the one I want to be with, not Ron, you. And I'm so sorry that it took this long for me to realize that." I explain and he just stares at me without saying anything.

"So... are you going to-" I start.

"Come here." He cuts me off and pulls me in and kisses me again, I kiss back. He presses me hard against the door, I hop up and wrap my legs around his waist. I move my lips with his when I hear the sound of glass shatter. Draco pulls away and we both turn our heads to see Ron standing in shock, with broken glass around his feet. I unwrap my legs from his waist and Draco backs away from me a little bit.

"This is why you have been avoiding me, you're with him now." Ron says, angrily.

"No, well yes, but he's not the reason I haven't been talking to you." I respond.

"Mhm, sure." He answers and rolls his eyes.

"I haven't talked to you because you've been an asswhole to Draco and me. You beat him up when he didn't even know we were together, you elbowed me in the face and then didn't even try to apologize-"

"You wouldn't let me apologize!" He yells.

"I wasn't talking to you, but nothing was stopping you from talking to me but you not wanting to, so don't try to pin this on me. I am not responsible for your dumb mistakes. I'm happy with Draco now, and if you want someone to blame then blame yourself because it's your fault." I say, angrily. He has really been getting on my nerves. I love him, I do, but I'm done wasting my time on someone who doesn't want to do the same for me.

"Whatever, see you later Maya." Ron says and he walks away, I look at Draco and he's smiling.

"What?" I ask with a half smile.

"I'm happy with you too, Buttercup." He responds, I smile and plant a small kiss on his lips before grabbing his hand into mine and we walk into the great hall.
