The Memories We Shared

Chapter 4

It's been an hour and I was unable to sleep. Switching my sleep positions was no help, thus I decided to go and walk a little. Maybe then I'll get tired. I sat up and swang my feet to the ground. I couldn't feel its cold as soon as I slipped into my slippers. I grabbed something to pull over just in case if it's cold and eventually opened my door. As I came out, I took care not to make any noises and wake anyone up.

The hallways were just like I had assumed, cold. It was night, obviously, means the nightsky added a dark and greyish atmosphere. As I turned the corner, I bumped into a tall and masculine figure, scaring the death out of me. I gasped loudly and backed away. As I could adjust my eyes to the even darker hallway, I recognized him.

,,You scared me!" I whisper yelled as his eyes were still somewhat wide from the shock, but he eventually looked at me normally again. ,,What are you doing here?"

,,Could ask you the same." He muttered quietly.

,,I was just catching some fresh air. What were you doing?"

,,I got lost. I-uh- was looking for the bathroom."

I tried to hold in my laugh. He noticed and scowled. ,,Alright, let's go back then." I said and we walked back to our dorms. We were in the hallway I just had been before bumping into him, but he stopped. ,,What? What is it?" I asked and he put his index finger on his soft lips, motioning me to shut up.

There was a low, whispery voice in the other room we were close to.

,,Who's that?" I asked and he looked rather terrified. ,,Draco?" I whispered, scared as I examined his frightened face. I listened to the voice and out of sudden, there was a loud, torturous, hight pitched sound in my ear. I slapped my hands against them and tried to quit it, yet it was no help. The sound went through my body. It felt as if it was ripping me apart. I whimpered quietly, still trying to not make any noises. I looked over to Draco who was doing the same.

,,Draco" I whispered through my tears and he grabbed my hand, running down the hallway.

He ran as fast as he could, trying to be far away from the loud noise. He ran into a random room in a hallway and closed the door. We were no more in touch with it, it quit. I breathed heavily as I began to see black dots in my sight.

,,What was that?" I managed to get out and he moved closer to me in the dark, putting his palm on my mouth. He held my waist with the other, pressing me against his chest in the dark room. His eyes were terrifidly glued on the door as I examined his beautiful face.

Footsteps were heard outside, approaching our door. I saw Draco close his eyes and breathe in sharply and shakily. As the footsteps vanished, he let go of me and walked backwards.

,,Care to explain?" I threw my hands in the air and looked at him with wide eyes. Dried tears were on my cheeks, my eyes and my nose somewhat red.

He made sure no one was there anymore and pulled me out of the room, not answering me.

,,Draco" My whispery voice cracked. ,,You cannot do this now. Tell me what happened. What was that. I deserve an explanation." I whispered to the back of his head, since he decided to ignore me. ,,Draco!" I said again and he caught me off guard by slamming me against the wall next to us harshly, yet making sure I didn't get hurt. One of his hands was on the wall right next to my face as he towered over me.

,,Stop asking questions, (y/l/n)." He said and I looked at him in disbelief.

,,What do you mean 'don't ask questions'?! Tell me what that was, Draco!" I said angrily.

He seemed to be debating wether to tell me or not. His lower lip trembled for a second. ,,It wasn't something, it was someone." He pushed himself off the wall. ,,Now come. We're going back." He said and I followed him, still mad.
