𝐒𝐞𝐜𝐫𝐞𝐭𝐬: Draco Malfoy

~Regret~

Nova's body was stiff on the floor, blood smeared all over her. The gown she was wearing being stained a crimson color, spots of blue were still visible on the gown, but barely.

Her eyes filled with tears as Draco stood in shock, he could barely stand to look at her on the freezing floor.

Draco picked her up slowly, blood sinking onto his hands and suit, all she did was stare at him and whimper. She couldn't speak, or at-least didn't have the energy to.

"What happened." Draco whispered to himself as he scanned her bruised body, slightly lifting the gown in certain places to see her tan skin enflamed and now turned a pinkish red.

He noticed some familiar gashes and cuts that he one had. His mouth dropped as he realized that Pansy had used Sectumsempra on Nova. Quickly he whipped out his wand.

"Vulnera Sanentur."

The cuts and gashes slowly started closing up again, the wounds healing from the outside, but the pain still lingering within.

Madam Pomfrey rushed in, running over to Draco and Nova.

She asked what happened and Draco told her, so Nova could be healed.

"Oh my." Madam Pomfrey whispered to herself slurring her words.

"Go to your dormitory, i'll stay here over night." The lady demanded Draco.

"No, I cant leave her again."

Madam Pomfrey shook her head, not letting Draco stay the night. Draco was still drunk, and Madam Pomfrey could smell it bouncing through the walls, he couldn't stay with Nova. At least, not tonight.

—

Draco laid in his bed, staring at the stars he created with his wand on his ceiling. He thought about that night and Nova. How if he didn't leave her then nothing would've happen.

Regret flooded his mind.

He would've never cared if it happened to anybody else. But, Nova— She was different.

He so wanted to kill Pansy for what she did. But, he was partially his fault as well, he left the one girl who was truly there for him. She knew everything about him, more than Blaise really. Yet, she still stayed. She's seen some of his flaws, although Draco calls himself perfect.

So there Draco sat, anger fueling inside of him for Pansy and his actions.

He couldn't control how much anger built up, he sat up from the bed. Grabbing a glass vase, throwing it across the room. It smashed against the wall, shattering the glass all over the floor.

He took his fist, shoving it into the wall infront of him, over and over until the skin on his knuckles turned raw, blood oozing out of the little cuts on his knuckles. His fist turned from pale to pink.

His throat projected a scream as his fists clashed into the wall non stop. Over and over and over.

He felt ashamed, maybe be he was drunk. Or maybe because he was starting to fall for her.

Nova

I woke up in extreme pain, my insides felt as if they were enflamed, burning. I could barely move my body. I looked down the my arm as I saw a bruise.

What the hell happened to me?

I looked to my side to see Madam Pomfrey walking towards me.

"How are you feeling?"

"Uhm, fine i suppose."

She handed me some tea, it looked familiar. Like the one at Draco's house.

I reached my hand out but instantly wept in pain, screaming as my arm felt so limp and torn.

Madam Pomfrey gasped in shocked as she backed up. Pure terror on her face.

"N— no wonder they h-hurt you."

"Pardon?" I was confused.

I looked over to my left arm to see the dark mark planted over it. My mouth hung open as I yanked my arm back. She was afraid of me.

Her hands became shaky as her breath hitched, she ran out the room to go find someone and I knew where this was going.

I ran out the room all the way to Draco's dorm. I tried catching my breath as I tripped every so often but i wasn't going to let anyone else find out.

—
"Nova?" Draco sat up in his bed straight, his eyebrows furrowed as he looked confused.

"Madam Pomfrey saw my dark mark."

"You can't be here." Draco sharply said as his eyes turned cold. His grey eyes now opening a new level of terror. He looked like the first time they met, cold and dangerous, lurking about and suspicious.

"I don't understand." Nova played with her fingers as she walked closer to Draco.

"Get out, your going to get me in trouble." Draco didn't care about her at the moment, whether she just got out the hospital wing or not was the least of his concerns. She was putting him in danger.

"No i'm not just let me sta—".

"Get the fuck out."

"Why? let me guess. You do the same exact thing with every girl when they satisfy your needs. Sex sex sex, that's all that matters. Go have fun fucking Astoria, oh wait you already did. And the fact you were about to do it while I was alone and hurt in the hospital wing really says something about who you are. Fuck you and your little posse of friends. Go hang out with Pansy and fuck her like you used too. I don't care if we're not together or not. It's the fact we're not together and your already leaving me to die. Fuck you. And don't even use the excuse that you were drunk, and no i'm not putting you in danger. So fuck off and go get your dick wet from another girl."

She stormed out the door and slammed it behind it, rushing down to her dorm as she bumped into Astoria.

"Awh hey hun whats wrong, Draco skip away from your fingers again."

"You can have him, have fun tasting me on his dick you little whore." Nova spat in Astorias face.

As Nova was speaking, she slipped her hand into Astorias pocket, slipping her wand out of it and into Nova's bag. "Have fun." She whispered lowly as Astoria went towards Dracos room.

She stormed to her dorm as anger rose within. what the hell is wrong with me, why did i think it was okay to get with his bitch ass.

She went to enter her dorm as she hit the bed instantly, right before she fell asleep she felt her arm burn with intensity. She tried to muffle her screams as she looked down at the dark mark rummaging on her arm. The dark lord needed her and Draco. It was not the right time. But, there was no choice.
