Her Eyes || Draco Malfoy

67

"Bring me home" I whispered to my mom as I laid my head in her lap "let me go home" I begged as I closed my eyes due to the bright surrounding area.

I knew I was close to dead to everyone but right now I had to choice to keep on going with my friends or to be with my mother.

"I can't leave him" I sat up and walked to the window where I looked down, I could almost make out the bathroom I laid limp in with Draco being held back by Ivy and Pansy while Ruby held Destiny.

I looked back to my mom who shook her head "its not my time" I said sadly, I wanted to see her but not like this, I wasn't ready for this.

I stared out, "is this actually happening or is this my subconscious trying to keep me from..." I trailed off as I watched from above as my friends, family and boyfriend all cried, mourning as my father tried to revive me.

I turned back to the women behind me and she shrugged leaning forward with a smile "why don't you tell me, Aster" I smiled at the nickname, my mother always called me Aster, told me I was her little star.

"Go on sweetheart I'll wait for you"

I turned back and the window was open so I climbed out the window looking down getting ready to jump.

"Star" she stopped me so I turned around "tell your father I miss him" was all she asked of me before I nodded telling her I would, a promise I knew I could keep before I jumped.

I opened my eyes and took a breath in and looked up at my father who just gave me a relieved smile.

I glanced down to my arm and saw that it was bandaged up, I let my head fall back and I closed my eyes sighing when I felt my head be lifted up and placed in someones lap.

~~~

I woke up a few hours later in my bed and looked directly at the blonde infront of me "hey" he whispered as he leaned forward to kiss my forehead softly.

I huffed with amusement as I squeezed his hand "how are you feeling, my love?" He asked brushing my hair out of my face as he placed his head onto the pillow next to mine so I could look at him properly.

"Better now, I'm sorry for what I did I didn't intend-" he cut me off when he shushed me, placing his pointer finger against my lips "I know my love" he pushed my hair behind my ear gently letting me smile.

I glanced to my arm and he sighed "I was so scared, I thought I was going to die and I wanted the last thing I saw to be you" I didn't know why I was telling him this but with my eyes still on him I watched as a tear escaped his eye.

"I wanted my last words to be to you"

He lookes back at me and smiled dispite still crying uncontrollably "I thought I was going to loose you" he hushed and his grip on my hand tightened.

"I couldn't— I can't loose you Iris" he sobbed as I felt my heart break due to his current state, I was weak still but I still squeezed his hand to tell him I never left him and that I would never leave him.

I needed him more than anyone or anything else and he was here, he never left and he never gave up on me, on us.

I reached my shaky hand out to gently stroke his cheek, wiping away all his tears as they fells because I couldn't stand to see him like this.

His eyes met mine and I swear I saw his heart breaking as his eyes wandered my face pushing my hand away from his face.

He leaned forward to kiss my forehead softly "rest" was all he whispered as I pulled him down so he landed ontop of me so he could stay.

He kissed me softly on the cheek then again on the mouth "I love you Iris" he whispered before kissing me again as I smiled weakly.

He Rolled onto his back and I buried ny face into his neck, I was still weak but it didn't stop me from showing him the affection I usually gave him.

I smiled kissing his neck softly hearing him chuckle before he kissed my forehead "I love you too" I smiled before closing my eyes.

One hand rested on my ass while the other on my shoulder, hugging me tightly like he was scared if he let go I'd disappear.

"never leave me" he whispered and it sounded like he was on the verge of crying again because his voice was weak, rough even and it sounded as if he was struggling to speak those 3 words.

A tear hit the top of my head and I shattered, "Draco" I tilted my head back to look at him, it was hard to though because the moonlight was the only thing currently lighting the room and so it was hard to see his face.

I just wanted him to look at me so he did.

His eyes were sad, glassy and dull which told me that he had been crying for hours before I woke up.

"How long was I asleep for?"

"A day"

My lips formed into an 'O' shape after not expecting that answer because I thought I had been asleep for only a few hours as that is how it felt.

"You lost alot of blood, you were so pale and limp I thought you died" he confessed sadly and I watched as a single tear escaped his eyes, rolling onto the pillow below.

"You did though, for just a moment in my arms and Ruby had to pull me back while your father brought you back" I listened to him as he told me what happened because I wanted to know, needed to know what happened to me.

"You died in my arms—for 5 minutes you weren't breathing and there was no pulse" more tears fell from his eyes that I wiped away absentmindedly.

He couldn't stop crying because of what happened, because of telling me what I did from his view point and how he felt, it hurt so bad because I never wanted what happened to happen.

I pressed my lips to his cheek softly for just a moment as a way to try and calm him down but when he did calm down 5 words left his lips and I broke.

"I thought I lost you"
