Dracos POV

I was just leaving my dorm when I saw Blaise on the other side of my door.

"For Merlin's sake, Draco!" He spat. I furrowed my eyebrows in confusion.

"Wha-" He pushed his way through and closed my door as he began to pace around the room.

"You know, I heard Y/n talking to Pansy. If you weren't such a pussy, you could be with the girl you've admired your whole life, she said it could've been you but Erickson got there first. She said something like, "didn't want to expect anything" dude! Basically, she said yes to Leo because I'm assuming she was deciding between the two of you and she was too scared you didn't actually like her so she said yes to Leo in fear that if she said no to him it would be useless because you wouldn't have asked her so she went with the second option, Erickson." He fastly spoke, would she really have said yes to me? Fuck I really am a pussy.

"Wow." Was all I could say as my head was now being overflooded with many thoughts about this situation.

"Wow? That's it? Draco you've been in love with her since even before the two of us met!" He exclaimed, now with a hand rubbing the back of his head in stress, "Listen, man, I care for you but I don't like listening to you whine about how you'll never get her even though she's right there in front of you, with open arms!"

"She hates me," I whispered. He sighed, I could tell he was angry.

"Acting like that? I would too, come on, be the man, Draco." I looked up at him, my face now filled with confusion and disgust.

"I am the man, Blaise. Don't ever make me sound like a scared prick. That's what Erickson is, not me." I shoved him out of the way and left my dorm, I need to see her.

"If we are going to try, you need to stop talking to Malfoy," Leo whispered, holding onto my knee extra tight as we sat at the end of my bed. I moved my head up to look at him.

"Don't you think that's a little too much to demand? I mean, during our years here, he and I hated each other but before, he and I were inseparable and I can feel that bond coming back. I can't just push him away, again. Not to sound shallow but you've only been here for a month, I've known him my whole life." I sighed and turned away. He let go of my knee and grabbed my jaw.

"You will do as I say, yeah? No one will ever love you as I do. I'm just trying to protect you, I'll give you a week to cut him off, if you don't by then, nothing will go well for either of you, consider this as a threat." He leaned in and kissed my forehead. Letting me go and getting up. That asshole. He doesn't have a clue who he's talking to, does he? As he opened my door he stopped, I looked over and saw Draco standing on the other side, he sighed and looked back at me. "Glad we could work things out, darling." He smirked, making my blood boil. He pushed his way past Draco, I got up and walked over to Draco who looked kind of let down.

"Draco-" I grabbed his hand but he yanked his away.

"So you guys are like together now?" He scoffed, as his teeth were clenched together. Why was he so mad?

"No. Come in, I need to tell you something." I was gonna tell him. I went to sit on my bed, looking back and seeing him still standing there, "come on." I whispered as I patted the spot beside me. He took a second before rolling his eyes and closing my door, walking up and sitting beside me.

"What is it? Gonna tell me about how I'm invited to the wedding-" I placed a finger over his lips as he shut up immediately.

"Shut up," I whispered, a smirk slowly rising on both our lips. "I'm not with him, I'll never be. He is basically forcing me to cut out communication with you." I bounced my eyebrows, he went to speak but I pushed my finger more into his lips. "I wasn't done," I warned. "What he doesn't know is I'm not doing that and I'd much rather pick you over him," I whispered, moving my finger away.
