Dracotok Story

-26-

"Y/N!" You wake up to see Draco, your one and only love, standing in the doorway. He ran away before you could reply.

You look around, unaware how you got here, and see Fred laying in bed next to you, just as confused as you are.

"Did we..." you start to ask.

"I-I don't think so," he says.

You have clothes on, which is a good sign.

You walk out of the room, and that party's still going on, so you couldn't have been gone for much longer than an hour.

You run upstairs, expecting to see Draco in your room, but he isn't there. You check the bathroom, the kitchen, the living room... he isn't anywhere in the house. Finally you see him outside, pacing on the drive, with his hands on his head.

"Draco, I can explain," you say, out of breath from all the running around the house.

"I know what I saw," he says, avoiding your eyes, and making sure you don't get too close to him.

"It wasn't like that."

"It wasn't like what, y/n?" He says in an almost mocking tone. "It wasn't like you were sleeping with Fred?"

"But we didn't-"

His head snaps to look at you, pain in his eyes. "I know what I saw. I saw you SLEEPING WITH ANOTHER MAN. YOU HAVE FUCKING HICKEYS ON YOUR NECK, AND THEY'RE NOT FROM ME! YOU MESSED UP, Y/N! I CAN'T JUST FORGIVE YOU FOR THIS! YOU HAVE A BOYFRIEND!"

He's never snapped at you like that before, and it scared you. His features softened and he stopped yelling when he saw you were crying. It hurts him when he hurts you, but you hurt him first, so he's not going to apologize for it.

"Had... a boyfriend," he corrects himself.

"Babe..." You reach out for his arm, but he pulls away.

"Don't call me that."

Silence

You stand there, trying to fathom what just happened.

"Go away," he says, already turned away from you. When you don't move, just standing there quietly sobbing, he say "I said go away! I don't want to see you right now."

And with that, you leave the man you love, not knowing when or if he will ever forgive you.

When you walk inside, Fred's sitting on the first step of the stairs you're gonna have to pass to get upstairs.

He stands up when he sees you. His messy hair which you once thought was cute just makes you more sad, more angry at yourself. "I'm sorry," he says, "I really am." You can tell that he's being genuine, and most likely feels terrible about it.

"It's alright. You didn't do anything wrong." You still can't look him in the eyes.

You pass him, and walk up the stairs. He knows that he's not the person you want to see right now, so he doesn't follow you.

You look through the front window on the second floor, and notice that Draco's car is gone.

He's gone. He left me.

You go to Ron and Hermione's room, hoping to see Hermione.

"You can come in," she says when you knock on the door. Thankfully it's only her in the room.

She sees you crying and shaking. "Y/n, are you okay?" She says, instantly becoming worried. She stands up and leads you to sit on the edge of the bed with her.

"He-he left," you say through tears. She hold you in a hug, and you cry on her shoulder.

"Who left? Draco?" She says, rubbing your back.

In response, you cry harder, now choking on your tears. "I t-thought we were g-gonna be together forever."

"I'll KILL him, I swear!" She helps you calm down enough for you to tell her everything that happened. You also give her permission to tell the others after you were done with the story.

"He'll be back," Hermione says. "He just needs some time to himself."

"You really think so?"

"I know so. He loves you, y/n. Of course he'll come back. For now, you just need to let him have some space."

"Okay," you stand up. "Thanks, 'Mione."
