Her Eyes || Draco Malfoy

59

Draco passed out on the couch in the common room after Umbridge ordered the inquisitorial squad to patrol the hallways around the room of requirement.

His arm hung off the couch and he buried his face into the back of the couch, he looked so peaceful and I couldn't help but smile.

I dried my hair with my towel before flopping down ontop of him, he hummed throwing his arm over me when I kissed his cheek.

"Hmm, you smell nice" he mumbled tiredly making me chuckle as he opened his eyes but keeping them narrowed "like... vanilla and mint"

His voice was raspy and deep from me just waking him up, his lips curled into a lazy smile and his cheeks were slightly flushed pink.

It was a beautiful sight, a rare one for most but a common one for me especially lately.

"I did just get out of the shower so yeah I can imagine why I smell like that" I whispered as I buried my face into his neck feeling him shiver due to my cold wet hair against his skin.

He was warm; comforting actually. His chest raising and falling slowly against mine as he pressed his face into my hair.

It became a nightly tradition for us, after our inquisitorial squad duties or his prefect duties we'd hang out on the couch, just us two in the common room.

I felt him shift under me and groan quietly "I heard Potter was pretty pissed about you joining the Inquisitorial Squad" his words slurred together due to his half sleep state and I nodded.

"Pissed is an understatement, I've never seen him so mad before" I muttered as I moved my head back to look at him seeing him struggle to keep his eyes open.

He looked beautiful, the glow of the fire alluminated his features making them seem soft and made his hair glow a beautiful golden orange.

I brought my hand to his face and pushed his hair away from his eyes gently causing him to smile tiredly "he can stay angry with me I don't really care" I lied because deep down I did care that the boy was mad at me, I was hurt by the things he said to me.

But Draco couldn't know that because he'd probably go ahead and yell at him, probably even punch him in the face which I honestly didn't want to happen.

I would never wish harm to any of my classmates except for Cormac because he's a pervert and deserve to be punched in the face.

I smiled at the blonde below me before pushing his hair back to reveal his forehead so I could leave a small kiss there "I'm going to bed you should do the same" I climbed off him and I watched him nod sitting up stretching.

He wrapped his arms around my legs and hugged me, placing his cheek on my bare stomach after he pushed my shirt up slightly.

My hands in his hair I played with it, brushing his messy hair with my fingers, it was wavy from him brushing the gell out.

"you okay ferret?" I wondered and he looked up at me with sad eyes before kissing my stomach and I huffed with amusement.

"I don't want to sleep alone" he confessed, his eyes were droopy and held dark circles under them that were barely visible at first glance.

My heart skipped a beat and I frowned at the sight of him with a desperate look in his eyes as he looked up at me.

My lips curled up to an apologetic smile as I continued to play with his hair "I don't either" I hushed running my hand down his cheek and wrapping a strand of his white hair around my index finger.

"But we have to" his eyes saddened at my words and he let a shaky sigh leave his lips as he stood up to look down at me "I know"

I smiled sadly standing onto my tippy toes bringing my mouth to his in a soft kiss while he placed his hands onto my waist pulling me slightly closer to him.

Tilting my head to the side I moved my lips against his with one hand on his cheek and the other on his shoulder.

I broke the kiss and smiled tiredly.

"I'm going to sleep; I love you" I told him softly before pressing my lips to his again and walking to my dorm room.

"I love you too my love, sleep well"
