Her Eyes || Draco Malfoy

19

Potions, the one class I've never gotten bad marks in, top of my class with Hermonie Granger and Draco Malfoy.

I guess this is where our rivalry started and where it will continue, even if we were seeing eachother I still would prove I was better than him at the subject.

He watched me carefully from my table across from his without my realization as I focused on getting this potion done. My hand held onto the spoon carefully as I stured the potion when I felt someone tap my shoulder.

I looked over at Pansy who pointed forward at the blonde whos eyes locked onto mine, his face ran red and he looked away making me quietly laugh to myself and look back down at the potion I had been trying to brew.

I let out a loud sigh while trying to get rib of the smile on my face but I found that hard so I looked over at Ruby who had an eyebrow raised "say something stupid" I told her throwing her off guard as she tilted her head.

"Um.. okay..." she hesitated before smiling confidently and held her hear up proudly telling me she knew exactly how to get me to stop smiling "Draco is better than you at potions"

My face dropped and I shot her a glare "I can't believe it worked, I thought maybe you'd cut him some slack seeing how he's basically your boyfriend at this point" she told me and I shook my head bringing my focus back to sturring the potion.

"Draco is not better than me at potions" I said bringing my eyes to him for a moment seeing him looking at me with his brows furrowed and his mouth open telling me he heard what I said and he was offended"

I bit back my smile before looking back down hearing the boys all teasing Draco and telling him it's true.

I finished my potion looking up at the blonde and giving him an accomplishment smile as Snape came to check if I did my potion correctly.

And I did.

Once he walked away I dismissed myself from my table and walked over to Draco "you are not better than me in potions" he scoffed rolling his eyes at me as he went back to focusing on his potion while I watched carefully.

I was bored, talking to Theo about potions as I tried to help him with his potion because he was struggling horribly with it.

"No Theo- god you're stupid" I hissed in frustration as he failed to listen to me I saw him give Draco a scared look as the blonde chuckled behind me.

I narrowed my eyes at Theo before turning around smacking Draco on the head softly then turning back to Theo who was laughing at the blonde.

I groaned putting my hair up into a ponytail before continuing to help the boy when his eyes bounced between my neck and Draco.

I looked at him confused when he tapped his neck and my face ran red as I smacked him harshly as he laughed loudly.

I looked over at Draco whos eyes also were fixated on my neck, though his eyes filled with worry as he looked at me "what happened?" he asked, his voice cracking slightly as he spoke and I gave him a sad smile.

I opened my mouth to answer but Snape interrupted, dismissing the class after Finnegan's potion exploded infront of him.

I quickly grabbed my bag Draco following me as I left the classroom, his hand slipping into mine as I let my hair down, letting it fall and cover the bruise on my neck so that no one else got any wrong ideas.

I pulled him into an empty corridor and pressed my back against the wall looking at him as he inspected my neck again "what the fuck happened?" He whispered bringing his eyes to meet mine.

"my aunt— when my aunt and I got into that fight she uh— she choked me" I explained as his eyes widened and anger filled his eyes, not at me but at my aunt "thats— what the fuck" he breathed placing his hand forward to prop himself on the wall infront of me letting his eyes soften as he looked at me.

"I didn't want you to worry about me" I told him softly, his eyes grew sad and he brought his hand to my cheek softly for a moment before sighing loudly pressing his forehead against mine before kissing my forehead and bringing me into a hug.

"Too late" he mumbled to my ear making me smile wrapping my arms around his torso burying my face into his chest letting him rest his head on mine.

He huffed moving back causing my arms to fall to my sides and his hand slipped back into mine as he pulled me back down the corridor to meet up with our friends in the great hall.

We walked in finding our table and sitting down inbetween Ivy and Goyle. Draco slipped his his hand out of mine placing it on my leg without any of our friends noticing it.

"We were just talking about how Draco keeps claiming hes better than you in Potions when he clearly isn't" Pansy said from infront of us and I looked over at Draco with a smile that said I told you so.

He rolled his eyes glaring at the people at our table "She finished the assignment before you Draco" Theo chuckled as the blonde glanced over at me "yeah only because he was staring at Iris the entire class period" Goyle joked nudging Draco into me as my face turned bright red.

I heard Draco becoming a stuttering mess as I played my hand onto his laughing.

"Draco just admit your girlfriend is better than you in potions because you know its true" Crabbe told him earning a glare frim Draco as he shook his head "shes not better than me" he defended as I shook my head.

"And I'm not his girlfriend" I said though the smile on my face didn't convince me or anyone else at the table as I looked over at Draco whos eyes were already on me.

"Not yet" the blonde winked making me roll my eyes and nudge his shoulder

"Shut up"
