Ecstasy of the Heart || Draco Malfoy x Male Reader

Chapter 42

Harry had come back from the Ministry and awoke in a bed beside Hermione and Ron. You and Draco came walking into the room and sat down next to Harry. "Are you feeling okay?" you asked "definitely" he responded. "The term ends tomorrow" you said "thank merlin for that" chuckled Ron. "we'll let you guys rest" you said, pulling Draco out of the room with you.

It had turned night faster than you could imagine and you were asleep in Draco's dorm, but Draco wasn't sleeping. He was sitting in a chair as he watched you with so many thoughts racing through his head. Draco pulled out a piece of parchment and a quill from his desk. Draco's body was shaking to the point he could hardly even calm down. He began to write.

Dear my love,

Once I laid eyes on you in our first year I knew that I would be chasing after you which I did end up doing. I had fallen head over heels for you especially in our 4th year since you had grown up. I loved how you also had fallen for me which you confessed to me about. I also loved how you were so open with me. But I regret that I was never open with you. I hid many things from you, things that I wish I told you so you wouldn't have to hear them like this. I'm going back with my parents but not on my own choice. The dark lord has risen and it's out of my control. I'm so sorry but we must end things here. Y/n I love you so much, I love how you can just make everything happy. I love how you were able to love me. I will always love you no matter what and I will never stop loving you. Please remember that you will always be in my heart. I must protect you. Goodbye my love.

Your love,

Draco

There were tears in Draco's eyes as he wrote this letter. He folded it up and sealed it so you could find it once you woke up. "Goodbye my love" said Draco as he placed his last kiss on your lips. Draco packed up your trunk before taking his. I love you" he sobbed closing the door behind him. Draco walked down into the Slytherin common room and sat down on one of the chairs. He cried while he sat there the entire night, but he never fell asleep.

It had reached morning when you finally awoke. You looked around for Draco but he was nowhere to be found. You saw that your trunk had been packed and the letter that was left on his desk. You didn't open it since you had to get to the train already. You floated your trunk down out of the common room and into the corridors as you looked for Draco. "Have you guys seen Draco?" you asked "we thought he was with you" Hermione said "he must be on the train then" you said.

You walked to the train with everyone else and floated your trunk into the train. You walked in and took a seat with everyone else in your usual compartment. "What's that?" Hermione asked "I dunno, I never opened it" you answered. You pulled off the string and unfolded it. You started to read it with tears forming in your eyes. "What is it?" Ron asked but all you did was show him the letter. You gave him the letter and pulled your knees to your chest as you leaned your back against the back of the seat.

"What?" Ron whispered, showing Hermione and Harry the letter. "I don't understand" whispered Harry. "It looks as though he's returned to his family," said Hermione. No one spoke the entire ride back to Kings Cross Station. You stared out the window the entire time as tears fell from your face. After a long 8 hour ride you finally reached Kings Cross. You walked out of the compartment and grabbed your trunk before heading off the train. You walked with your head down the entire time with the letter in your hand.

Harry said his goodbyes to everyone and gave you a hug since you didn't say anything. "Everyone ready to go" Mrs. Weasley asked and everyone nodded. Hermione waved goodbye since she was going to visit later. "Where's Draco?" Mrs. Weasley asked but Ron gave her a look and she nodded. Remus and Mad eye were talking to Harry's uncle about something but you couldn't hear them. Your ring was still glowing from when you left the castle. Mrs. Weasley came back from talking with Remus and took everyone back to the Burrow.

When you arrived you pulled up your trunk to your room. You pushed open the door to find it exactly how it was before but only much cleaner. You placed your trunk down and shut the door behind you. You slumped down with your back against the wall as you held your knees to your chest. You sobbed into your knees until you heard a knock at the door. "y/n, its me Fred" the voice said, you got up from the floor and pulled the door open. "Hi" he said, pulling you into a big hug as you cried into his chest.

He pulled you onto the bed where he laid you on top of him with your face buried in his chest. You had fallen asleep while Fred stroked your head and your back trying to comfort you. Fred just couldn't believe what he had been told by Ron and Ginny. He didn't understand why Draco broke up with you and why he went back to his family. Fred felt you start to move, "awake yet?" he grinned looking down at you. "I think dinner is ready," he said, pulling you off of him.

Fred pulled you out of the room and down the stairs. He took a seat at the table and pulled you down next to him. "You need to eat," he said, placing a plate of food in front of you. You picked up your fork and started to eat while Fred had a big smile on his face. Dinner was slow and silent while everyone shoved food in their faces. Ginny went up to bed early which was a first and Ron went up as well soon after her. Fred pulled you onto the couch and sat you in his lap.

"Are you okay?" he asked no, not really" you hiccuped as tears formed in your eyes "I miss him" you said burying your face into Fred's chest. "I know you miss him" said Fred as he pulled you closer into him. You had fallen asleep on Fred but he didn't want to wake you so he laid down on the couch. He placed you on his chest and floated a blanket on top of you.
