𝐒𝐞𝐜𝐫𝐞𝐭𝐬: Draco Malfoy

T W E N T Y - F O U R

~Sins~

Draco and I ran through the halls, eager to find Dumbledore as quickly as possible. Breathing frantically as we arrived out front of his door.

"He's— not here."

We snapped our heads behind us, like an owl. To see Snape.

"What? What do you mean he's not here." I stumbled, bent over with my hands on my knees as I was heaving from all the running.

"He's gone away, he'll be back soon."

In disappointment, Draco and I turned around, huffing away from Snape. All of our questions left unanswered.

"Just forget about it V." Draco panted as he stuffed his hands into his dress pockets.

"V? Where the hell did you get V from."

"From your name? Nova, Nova. See, I took it from the V."

"Yeah, don't call me that." I turned on my heel, walking down the hall.

"Nova, come here."

I stood up from the Slytherin table next to Blaise. It was early for dinner so Draco hadn't been there yet. heading my way towards the table, red and gold flooded as Harry scooted over, making room for me.

"What's the sudden call for?" I scowled, sitting upright as he walked into the room.

My eyes darted to his tall figure, his hair shiny and glistening, his eyes a cloudy fog from where I sat. I sent over a smile before he sent a smug look back. Trudging his way to sit with Blaise, Pansy a couple seats down.

Interesting.

"It's about Malfoy."

My brows furrowed and I switched gears, my thoughts flooding with worries about what Harry could be talking about. What's happening.

"What about him."

"You two are awfully close, will you help us."

"Help who and with what?"

Harry turned his head behind him, I doing the same to see Draco shoot a terrifying and deadly look towards Potter, sending me one just moments after.

He got up, sitting next to the familiar brunette. What a prick. My face dropped as I turned my head to Harry.

"Hermione Ron and I. Malfoy has been slugging around the corridors late at night. Help us figure out why."

Internally, I screamed. Could it be that he was working on the cabinet at night. He usually does it during days and classes.

"And why would you even notice that he's out of bed around that time." I snapped, confused as he stood up. Granting a hand out in-front of him, waiting for me to accept it.

I simply declined, I stood up on my own as he walked a few steps ahead of me. I picked up my pace to catch up with him, turning my head to see a very furious Draco.
