Our Addiction || Draco Malfoy x Reader

double lives

     I sit on the hard floor in my room with my hands on my head. Theo sits in a chair across from my room fidgeting with an empty plastic water bottle. Blaise went to bed early.

"This isn't going to work out, you know that right?" Theo asks bluntly.

"Yes."

"And you still continue to mess with her? For what? Even if you've told her that, she still is going to think you can somehow end up together. Probably in a cottage with no worries of blood types and the fucking mark engraved on your arm."

I look back up at him. I know he says this because he cares about her.

We all do.

"I really don't know what else to do, Theo. I'm in too deep. We are all in too deep. We can't just leave her. She'll just be back with who? Stupid fucking Potter? Fred Weasley? She'll be against us." I mutter. There's no way I'm turning my back on her for her just to fight against me.

"Yes, she would be. I think you're forgetting what kind of side they are," He throws the plastic bottle at my head, it hits my shoulder bouncing onto the ground. "I want you to think long and hard, Draco. That 'side' is the good side. The side she can live her life with, if you don't screw it up and kill her."

"Now tell me how we do that? Stop talking to her?"

"I'm following your steps. I won't back out and leave all of you to dust until my life is on the line."

"How kind of you. I'm so excited to have you breathing down my back when you know I'm not going to do anything. I physically can't do anything." I shake off the black blazer that was only making me frustrated. "I told her months ago she would never be more than a quick fuck, that she's just a dumb game. I told her that SHE would crawl back, and guess what I fucking did that night, Theo." I laugh to myself. "I crawled back. I bitched and moaned for her forgiveness."

"You got all of us into this mess. I will step in when I have to, to get her out of this. But right now this has to be on you."

"I can't."

"And that's the problem." Theo says. He walked out of the room not long after. Even after talking to him I know I won't say anything to her. I didn't even kiss her today. This can't be the end.

I have time. I have until the end of the year, then...

Oh fuck me.

I'm screwed.

~~~~~~

"Get the fuck up, we're late." Theo yells into my room. His hair is wet and he wears a robe. I look at the clock by my bedside, 8:17 am.

I jump out of my bed, throwing the silky sheets that laid over me, off. He leaves closing the door harshly. Well at least I know he's still mad.

I obviously didn't have time for a shower, knowing I should be eating breakfast with mum right now. Instead I grab a clean white shirt and button it up fast. It needed to be ironed still, but I put it on anyways.

"Daisy?" I ask for the elf in a harsh tone.

A crack appears by the bedside of my room and she walks her little legs towards me with a sweet smile. "Is there anything Daisy can do for Mr. Malfoy?"

Her short blond pony tails stick out of her head like antennas.

I flinch. I hate when anyone calls me that, it reminds me that I'm only to grow to be my father. "I told you to call me anything else but that."

She nods her head for forming an apology as tears form in her eyes.

I didn't even do or say anything, oh my god.
