Beauty Hurts (Draco X Reader)

C5; The Hospital Wing

--Draco's POV--

Her face was sweating like wild. Beads of sweat were rolling down her neck. Was she okay?? I decided to pull the covers so she didn't blow up: it looked like she was going to any minute now. As decided to do it slowly, making sure she was comfortable. As I did, i could see how relieved she was. We locked eyes for about 25 seconds and then she decided to pull the covers back onto her. What was she hiding?

--Y/n POV--

I could tell Draco was worried and confused. Why had I covered myself. Well.. I'm super insecure; not that anybody notices. I'm depressed. I have a lot of things I hate about myself. "Sorry Draco, can you leave me alone for a bit?" I said quietly, he could tell I wasn't joking. His face went pale. I mean, I could tell he didn't wanna leave. But I told him I'd be okay! He stood up, ready to leave without any hesitation. I felt bad, but I wanted to be alone. 

--Draco's POV--

She was definitely not comfortable. She asked me to leave. She wasn't being rude but I could tell she didn't want to be around me. Or anyone for that matter. I decided to stand up and take my leave. Looking back and seeing her smile weakly. Something was up. Something I didn't know but was willing to find out.

--Y/n POV--

Ok.. I thought. Why did Draco have to be around me all the time? I mean, our parents may have known each other but I'm not sure. Are my "parents" even my real parents? Was I given up for adoption? All these thoughts kept coming to my brain; I had no idea why. Just then, I felt the need to go back to the common room for the upcoming day: it was Thursday. My first lesson was potions with Snape. Ugh, he had a heart made of stone. He was always giving out detentions for no reason. Just as i stood up, i fell to the ground. I banged my back on the hard marble floor. This was it I couldn't move. I felt someone's hand offer to help me up. It was my bestest friend in the world, Cedric Diggory.

--Cedric's POV--

I heard rumours that Y/n was ill. In the Hufflepuff common room, everyone was approaching me asking me if she was ok. They had a right to, I was supposed to be her best friend; but i didn't even know anything about it. What a bad friend. Y/n was always there for me. Why couldn't i be there for her? I ran to the hospital wing to see Malfoy staring at her. What was his issue? I hid in the corner until he went. Y/n got up. She fell down- oops, how clumsy is she!! I went and helped her up; a huge smile brightening her face!!

Sorry for the short paragraph :/
