RECKLESS ; D.M

14. Away

Eleanor POV:

"Malfoy?" I ask, I knew something he thought I didn't.

Talking to Hermione, Harry and Ron, I saw him. He stood at the edge of the library door, it seemed as if he was trying to listen. Through out the conversation between The trio and I, I lost focus. My eyes would drift to the entrance seeing a slight part of his body.

"What is it Riddle?" He turns to face me.

"I saw you, I saw you at the library door" I confess, confronting him. I got a sudden feeling of butterflies roaming through my stomach.

His eyes flashed away from mine, I could see something was wrong with him, once again there was something off about him.

"What do you mean you saw me Riddle?" Nr lifted his arm to his head running each finger through his platinum blonde hair. I took in every detail as I watched him streak his hair back.

" you stood at the door...listening" his eyes immediately meet with mine once again, his black pupils getting bigger, his fingers twisting and tapping his arm.

"I-I dropped my book, I wasn't listening. I didn't know you were in there, actually why were you in the library anyway?" He grew a suspicion over me.

"I was getting a book Malfoy" I hated lying but no one could know what happened in the library, I said a white lie.

It was silent, dead silent. I turned to leave the tower leading my footsteps toward the staircase, I heard a voice.

A deep voice, a voice I knew "It's Snape" I spun around, Draco standing right behind me.

"We have to go, we can't get caught it's past night hours" a slight smile grew on my face as he stared into my eyes.

"Let's go then" I began to run the opposite way of the staircase onto a hallway, he followed along.

We both ran down a long hallway laughing in hope we wouldn't get caught, the cold breeze flowing through my hair.

We got to the end of the hall, I felt dense pressure on my shoulders being pushed back into a wall.

My hands pressed against the wall, his hands conjoined with mine, are eyes staring deep into each others, lips inches away, chests so close I could feel the heat off his body.

I felt it, I felt the energy rush through me a feeling I had never felt before lo-

"WHOEVER IS OUT THERE GET BACK TO YOUR DORM" Snape yelled from the end of the hall breaking our gaze, our connection.

I felt the heat move away from he as he turned around and walked away. "Your leaving?"

"I have too" he simply walked down the corridor not even looking back.

Draco POV:

I left.

Our chests were about to collide, I felt my airways getting tighter, vibrations sending goosebumps to my arms. I felt trapped.

My body left from hers as I walked down the hallway.

I tried getting closer to her and I still am as my father wants me too.

But the feelings I get around her, I'm doing this for my father not for my feelings for her.

My window in my dorm had the most peaceful view.

The night sky, each star placed perfectly in the darknesss, the crescent moon, the silence.

She was all that filled my mind. It was like a ringing in my head, she drove me crazy.

Why her, why riddle. I couldn't, I couldn't handle.....handle her.

I don't and I cant like her. I won't like her .

That sentence  kept  repeating in my head, making me reckless.
-
"You said you hated me" she whimpered under her breath, those deep eyes looking into mine. A glass cover shining through them.
-
I needed to stay away from her.

I needed to stay away from her long blonde hair, her gazing dark blue eyes, her soft voice...Her presence.

My father, he would force me, he is forcing me. His patheticness.

He was the only person I grew a fear for, everything I would try manage had to be right or it would happen. He would....

I couldn't bring to my mind what he would do, those thoughts remained in the back of my brain where no one would know.

I bottled it up inside not letting anyone know anything about me. My feelings, the torture, the loneliness.

I would stay away from her, just now I had to. I cant keep resisting the sense of butterflies fluttering through my stomach being with her.

I laid back on the armchair, focusing on the view. Not thinking just blanked out on the chair.

I could stay there all night.

—-//—-

Next morning;

"I feel like I wasted time, I wasted it. It's late now, please riddle....please"

I stirred from the armchair, with a peek of the sun glancing through my eyes, my index finger rubbing them to fully wake me up.

I lifted myself from the chair, beginning to change into my uniform.

Buttoning my shirt, siping my pants, tying my robe.

I Paced out the door, meeting Theo and Blaise outside waiting for me.

The both swung an arm around my shoulders, "Malfoy you've been quiet lately" Theo says with a grin on his face.

"And?" I question as we still walk tangled together down the hallway.

"Anything on your mind" Blaise lets out a laugh, "No Blaise nothing I'm particular".

As we walked to the great hall at the Slytherin there she was.

I wanted to stay away from her, I had to.

Blaise and Theo still had their arms wrapped around me leading me to the table where Pansy and Eleanor sat.

I was stood on the other side of the table, everyone else sitting down. I stood up, still standing not breaking contact with her.

Long blonde hair swingging to the side, her cheekbones turning to face me. Eye contact, dark blue eyes, weird feeling roaming through my stomach.....again.

I hesitated to sit down, I rathered not eat than sit with them knowing she would be there.

"Draco where are you going?" I heard Theo's voice as I left the great hall.

Stay away from her Malfoy......Get close with her Draco.

My voice and my fathers head overlapping in my head.

I headed out to the gardens, leading myself to the end, lowering my back against the wall.

I sat in the back, in a hidden place where no one would see me.

My knees up to my forehead, I wanted to leave.
-
"I felt like running away, running away from this filthy world. With you."
-
The water droplets always built up in my eyes but I never let them out, ever.
If I ever break down or cry, I'm at the end, I have hit rock bottom.

I don't cry and I plan on never crying.

I'm Draco Malfoy.
