Her Eyes || Draco Malfoy

"yer going to regret this! You and your bloody chicken"

I sighed following after Hagrid after he ordered me to come with after Draco decided to not listen to Hagrid and got attacked by Buckbeak.

I don't know why I was asked to come with but here I was following them carrying all of Draco's stuff while trying my best not to laugh at the blonde's over dramaticness as he whined like a baby in Hagrids arms.

I pushed my glasses up my nose as we walked to the hospital wing "you know Hagrid he can walk just fine he doesn't need to be carried for a scratch on his arm" I said as Draco gave me a deathy glare and I just smiled innocently as Hagrid sat the boy down.

"alright then Fay you can walk him the rest of the way"

I felt my soul leave my body as I looked over in disbelief at the professor who gave me an apologetic smile and walked off back towards his hut.

I didn't need to turn around to know that Draco had a large smirk on his face especially when he spoke up "poor Iris has to spend more time with her new best friend" Draco taunted as I turned around quickly glaring at him as he held his arm in pain.

I sighed softening my expression a little bit before walking towards him "does it really hurt that bad" I asked as I slowly removed his hand from his arm to inspect it but judging by the way he hissed in pain, genuine pain it really did hurt that bad.

I looked up at him seeing he had his eyes on me and his cheeks were colored pink making me tilt my head when I realized that I still held his hand in mine so I removed it apologizing quietly.

"We should take you to madam pomfrey she'll uh.. she'll know what to do" I hesitated quietly as I walked beside him awkwardly as we walked the rest of the way to the hospital wing.

I tried to think of a way to fill the awkward silence, maybe start a conversation but he beat me to it.

"I've never seen you so in awh over something other than your books or potions" he began me making me look over at him as he spoke "and it was really weird to see you smile, I don't think I've ever seen you smile before"

I was shocked at his sudden kindness and wondering why he couldn't be nicer around other people instead of when he was alone doesn't he get sick of people thinking hes a jerk?

"oh you saw that" I muttered feeling both shocked and embarrassed that anyone had seen it, I hated my smile much like I hated my eyes because my whole life I've been told how I'm the splitting imagine of my mother but I had my fathers eyes, my fathers smile.

I didn't want to be reminded of him.

I looked away shaking mye head before apologizing "sorry you saw that" I kept my eyes forward, pushing my glasses up my nose once more as we finally arrived to the hospital wing.

"there's nothing wrong with your smile Iris" he said, sounding confused as I opened the door for him sighing realizing Madam Pomfrey wasn't here yet.

"There's everything wrong with it Draco" I groaned as he laid down on one of the beds in the room and I sat down in the chair next to it "I have my fathers smile and I'm always being reminded of it"

I looked over at him as he sat facing me and he looked as if he was trying to understand what I just said before he spoke up.

"You have your own smile and I think its nice" he complimented making me look down biting back a smile as my cheeks turned a bright pink "don't tell anyone I said that please" he added as I looked up with a small smile shaking my head.

"Tell them you said what?" I sarcastically said tilting my head right as Madam Pomfrey walked in and I dropped my smile.

"What is it now Mister Malfoy?" Madam Pomfrey grumbled loudly at the blonde before bringing her eyes to me "He got attacked by buckbeak, Hagrids Hippogriff during class" I explained in an apologetic tone as she sighed tending to him.

Draco hissed in pain when she began wrapping his arm making me roll my eyes "you're so dramatic" I say under my breath as I sat up straight proping my head up on the table beside his bed.

Luckily he didn't hear this comment because if he did, I probably would have gotten smacked on the back of the head.
