A/N: Remember the rules of Hogwarts do not always apply in this fanfic! As well as remember this is a Dracoxreader fic so Draco slander will not be accepted unless it's because of something he did in the story. I take my time writing these chapters and yes they still have grammar mistakes now and then but I do stay up at times until crazy hours of the night just to give you guys a chapter.

I will continue writing this story but like I have said before it will take time to upload a chapter. 

T/W: Violence
-

As the days passed, Hogwarts was changing. And all because of her. Draco, Fred, George, and I were heading to class when we spotted Filch hammering something onto the wall. The sharp clang of the nail echoed through the corridor, making students pause and glance over. I stepped forward, squinting at the new decree.

"Dolores Umbridge, High Inquisitor."

I felt my stomach twist in anger.

"Has she gone completely mental? Has the Minister lost his mind too? There's nothing wrong with Hogwarts! If anything, Umbridge is the one creating the problems!" I fumed.

"The Minister probably just wants what's best for us," Draco said, shrugging. "Father says she's highly skilled, even thinks she'd make a better Headmistress than Dumbledore."

I turned to him, eyes burning with disbelief. "Do you even hear how ridiculous you sound?"

Draco's jaw tightened. "It's true. Maybe if she had been Headmistress last year, your father wouldn't have shown up at Hogwarts with you."

The air between us turned ice-cold. My fists clenched, but I forced myself to exhale sharply and walk away before I said something I'd regret. The next few days were suffocating. Umbridge patrolled the halls like some self-appointed queen, her beady eyes darting around for any excuse to exert control. With a flick of her wand, she smoothed out wrinkled uniforms, separated couples who dared to hold hands, and plastered her insufferable rules all over the castle walls.It was as if she wanted to suck the very life out of Hogwarts.

"I'll see you after class, yeah?" Draco said as we reached my classroom. "We can meet up with the twins and go to Hogsmeade."

I smirked. "Alright, we'll find your two boyfriends first, then head to Hogsmeade. But you're buying me Sugar Quills."

He chuckled and leaned in to kiss me, but just as our lips were about to touch—

We were ripped apart.

"What the bloody hell?!" I snapped, stumbling back.

"There will be no public displays of affection in the halls," Umbridge announced, her saccharine voice dripping with fake politeness.

Draco straightened his robes, avoiding my gaze. "Just let it go, Y/N. Head to class."

I frowned. "Are you not even going to kiss me goodbye?"

"You heard Umbridge," he muttered. "No public affection."

I scoffed. "Since when have you cared about following the rules?"

Draco's expression hardened. "Just drop it. It's one less kiss, you'll live. I'll make it up to you later." He turned to leave.

But something didn't sit right.

"You're not actually siding with her, are you?" I asked, my voice sharp.

Draco stopped mid-step. "My father believes she's good for Hogwarts. I trust his judgment."
