A friend may be waiting behind a stranger's face

—Quote from: Maya Angelou, Letter to My Daughter—

-4th year
-friends group: Blaise, Daphne, pansy, Theo, Draco, y/n

Y/n:
Here I am already four years in Hogwarts, the time is going way faster than I would ever imagine. I feel safe here and I think of Hogwarts like my second home and I often spend my time here rather then home. I created so many memories here, and I found so many good friends here.
In my friend group there are, Blaise, Daphne, pansy, Theo and Draco.
We are kind of family, we all care about each other and when something would happen the boys would protect us, at all cost.
I can remember in the third year, where we began hanging out after curfew at the black lake, every Friday.
You can talk with them about nearly everything of course the boys would make sneaky remarks sometimes but with the time I don't care anymore.
I have this feeling that this year, Blaise and pansy will get together.
Yeah, I know Pansy was for a long time into Draco, and she was forcing herself on him and you could clearly see that he was uncomfortable but she was obsessed with him.
At some points, you can say it was an unhealthy obsession and we are all very glad that she's over that because it wasn't good for her. Now, well, she completely changed, for better.
I think that she is now her real self, now she's pansy and not the girl that is running after Draco like a puppy to his mom. She is, actually nice and kind and from us she is the one that always know what to wear. The best shopping assistant, you will ever meet.
Daphne and I know about her little crush on Blaise.
Honestly, they are already acting like a couple you know like the basic things like holding hands, they are always sitting next to each other but in my opinion the little things are the big ones in the end.
I am happy to have my friends because I think without them my time at Hogwarts would be terrible, because I know that even when someone says he or she doesn't need friends, everyone does.
I would say, we all understand each other then anyone else would because we are all very very similar. I will just say one thing : family problems.

It's a Friday, so we are all going to hang out, at the black lake again.

"So again like always ?" Pansy asks, sitting next to Blaise and daph in the great hall.
"Of course, I think that is now an unnecessary question, isn't it?" Draco replies, earning a death glare from me. Sometimes I don't get this boy because he can't be caring and nice but in the next  moment he can be the evilest men you will ever meet.
You will never know what you can expect from him. I have to admit he is handsome as hell, like just look at him. "Calm down, mate. She just wanted to ask you, no need to snap at her," Blaise steps in, speaking up for pansy. Draco just scoffs at that, typical for him. "Alright, then I will see you guys at 8 pm, our tree," I speak up, and Theo just nods so I leave to finish my assignments I have to get done.

It's 7 pm, and I just finished my potions assignment being now tired as hell and the only thing I want is, to go under my covers and to close my eyes.
"Y/n, wow- your desk is a bit... messy? Anyways, just wanted to let you know to take something warmer with you, it's cold outside," Blaise steps into, pansy's, daphne's and my dorm.
I sigh, "Thank you, Blaise. I am just finished bloody potions and honestly, I feel like falling asleep every moment"
He just chuckles, "Well, I still have to get this done so I am not looking forward to it, can we talk for a minute."
I raise my eyebrows at him and I think, I know about what he wants to talk about..
"So, I- I think I like pansy and now that it's cold outside, do you think it would be a good idea to take a hoodie for her ? Or is that too weird ? You know, I don't want to make things uncomfortable, between pansy and me"
"Oh Blaise, you are worrying to much, just be yourself and yes take a hoodie for her with you," I tell him and Blaise smiles, thanking me and leaving me alone.

Crap, I fell asleep and now I am in stress. Why can't I use the alarm daphne gave me, guess I forgot. Okay, I look quite presentable, forget it no. I look awful, my hair sticking out everywhere and my mascara, I won't even mention it.
Where is now my hairbrush ?
I quickly brush my hair, putting it in some sort of ponytail, washing my face with cold water, so I would walk up and run outside.
„Hello, guys. I am sorry, I fell asleep out of all- ," I say out of breathe, when daphne stops me, "Girl, it's fine. Take deep breathes and come here, sit down."
So I just listen to her and sit down next to, you will never guess, Draco.
It's not like I have a problem with that, but it's just I am not quite sure what I feel for him, so I would rather sit next to the girls, but they are sitting next to their future boyfriends, so lucky me. I sit down next to him, my arms on my knees, so my hands are nearer to the fire. Yes, we actually have a campfire. We are very careful with that, so Filch won't notice us here.
The view is incredible, seeing Hogwarts, in the night. A few lights are still on, so you can recognize the castle, with all of its details. Also, the surroundings are gorgeous.
When I have more free time, I would definitely, be outside in the forest or on the fields a lot more.
Who knows, maybe one day I will spend here more time?
I have to say that I am very lucky, being able to visit Hogwarts and going here to school. With the hill, on which Hogwarts is built, I am speechless every time I look at it.
The sky is dark, dark blue, yet beautiful with the stars on it. Next to the stars, our problems here, seem so small. The universe is so big, and it's mind-blowing. I always liked to watch the stars when it's dark, I don't really know why, but it has something calming. It's even more fun, when you know a few constellations of the stars and to search them with your friends, can be relaxing, just what I need today. Especially, with Blaise who never finds them.

„So guys, the holidays are coming... Are we doing something together ?" Pansy says breaking the, in my opinion, comfortable silence.
"Well, we are going to my vacation house at the beach. Mother sent a letter already, to your parents," Draco answers casually, looking at me longer then I would want to.
"Oh my god ! That will be the best holidays ever," Pansy squeals hugging Blaise.
Pansy, pansy dangerous move.

"What do you think of Snape ? He's acting off, isn't he," I say, as suddenly draco wraps his arm around me, pulling me closer to him. I look up at him, with a questioning look. He just, nods to pansy and Blaise, and Theo and Daphne. Both pairs were cuddled up together, talking to each other completely ignoring me.
"Well, let them alone and I am taking you on a walk," Draco whispers in my ear, which shocks me totally.
"Ye-Yeah, sounds good to me," I manage to answer and with that he stands up, pilling me up with him. "We will be back later," Draco tells the other, then coming up to me, taking my hand in his going a few steps away,towards the fields.
"I want to fall in love Draco, but real love," I blurt out.
"Well, what is love for you then ?" Draco asks and I think for a moment about it.
" Love is scaring me because when you once fall for one person, it's not easy to let go off the person then. I can't even imagine, when this person will disappoint you or leave you, how much that will hurt. If you look at someone and see the person that is making you happy and feel loved, it's for sure a feeling- you can't really describe but it'd a very positive one. Love is such a powerful emotion because you can't control it but it's beautiful and something you can't fake. An example of true love is the emotion shared between a couple who has been married for 40 years and who are still passionate about each other and care deeply for each other"
Draco looks at me speechless and turns to me, " When I wake up and think about you it's making me smile and feel loved I never thought I would be capable of loving someone but I do love you, y/n"
I am speechless
In the next moment, he pulls me closer to him by my waist. His hand is cold, yet melt into his touch. It just feels right. With his large right hand he cups my right cheek, his touch. I never knew how much I need it, how I carve for it. It's addicting.
Without even thinking properly my hands wrap themselves around his neck and I can feel how cold he is there again but my hands don't move they only go up to his hair.
Running my fingers trough his hair, I realize how soft it is. I pull him down to me and put my warm lips on his cold one's.
My first love is Draco Malfoy.
