'You slept with her?'

Draco leaned against the wall and raised his brows. Astoria was getting involved in your business again. She clearly overheard Grace shouting you slept together.

'Since when is this any of your business?' Draco asked.

'Since you know the deal. You can't just do this. You're so disrespectful!'

Draco laughed. Disrespectful? Astoria was being disrespectful by interfering in your relationship.. or well.. fake relationship.

'Oh I am so disrespectful for loving someone else.' He mocked her.

You were watching the scene from a distance. This was very awkward. Maybe you had to go help him. Not maybe. You had to go help him.

'Stop! You won't get away with this. You know how your father is.'

'No I don't, tell me more.' You said while grabbing Dracos arm and leaning against him.

Astoria sighed and didn't say anything. She looked you up and down and crossed her arms. She was judging you for sleeping with him. Purely because she couldn't.

'Youre just dating him for that, arent you?'

You had to get back at her. You smiled brightly and narrowed your eyes a little.

'For what? For his cute face and his love? Sure.'

Astoria rolled her eyes. Draco grinned and he kissed the side of your head.

'You will hear more about this.' Astoria hissed before walking away.

You watched her leave and sighed. Draco looked at you.

'She's never going to leave me alone. She's obsessed with me.'

Draco reached into his pocket and pulled out an unopened letter.

'My parents answered my letter. Want to go read it?'

You grabbed Draco's hand and nodded. You two headed up to his room. You sat down on the bed and he started opening his envelope. It seemed to contain two letters. One was in bad shape. Seemed to have been crumbled up and text was crossed out. It seemed to be sneaked in there. The other one was neatly folded behind it.

'Odd.' Draco just said.

He unfolded the crumbled up paper. It made him to most curious. It seemed really out of place to be in there. Normally his parents would write one letter together from both of them.

Draco,

I have no idea what has gotten into your mind this time but I dont even want to hear it.

Not once have you mentioned her. Not one time have you said you liked her. We made a deal. Astoria's parents are counting on you!

That part of the letter was followed by a text with mostly crossed out text. The only things you could really read were a few words.. and they werent friendly. You had no idea why they were crossed out but this letter was clearly not supposed to be there. The letter was signed off with Lucius name.

'My dad is not happy.' He sighed.

Draco crumbled the paper back up and tossed it away. You noticed he was stressed right away. Lucius always really spoke his mind about everything. Everything had to go his way. Even though you hadn't met him you could just feel that that was the dynamic at his house.

'I definitely am going to get it from him when. I go back home.'

Draco grabbed the other letter and unfolded it. This one was written in a nice handwriting.

Dear Draco,

Thank you for your letter, to be honest we never expected you to date y/n. We didn't know you two knew each other. You haven't really told us about her before..  but then again we are your parents and it's not
really a surprise you don't share everything with us after everything that happened.

Your father took it worse than i did. He wrote a letter but i decided to throw it away. Don't worry he will come around some day. We know y/ns family and we know that they're
also pureblood and slytherin so eventually he will get it.

He really valued the deal we made and we
hope Astoria's parents will understand.

I will always have your back,

Love, your mother

'Your father must've sneaked in the letter before she send it away.'

Draco sighed and laid himself back on his bed. You looked at him and laid down besides him. You were in this deal together.. even though it was just about the benefits. You still wanted him to be okay.

'Are you okay?' You asked.

'I'm okay. My mum is on my side. That helps.'

You both just stared at the ceiling for a moment. You wanted to cheer him up a little. Maybe you could do something fun. Have a few drinks, hang out with friends.

'We should go to Hogsmeade tomorrow. With Grace and Peter. Maybe that'll make you feel better.'

Draco grinned and looked at you. He found that really sweet. No one ever really thought about cheering him up.

'What would really make me feel better is seeing you in that new outfit you got.'

You laughed and shook your head.

'Ill show you afterwards.'

-

'To Hogsmeade?' Grace asked. 'Sure! Kinda like a double date but not like.. actually.'

'Yeah, we could go tomorrow.' You smiled.

'Sounds good.' Peter smiled.

He got up and walked over to the common room notice board. He grabbed a flyer and sat back down.

'Have you guys seen this yet?' He asked before handing it to Draco.

You leaned in and read it. It was an invitation to a party in the slytherin common room for all 7th years.. it was to celebrate the freedom.

'It's only for last year's because we can drink. It's in 2 weeks. We're going to go, right?'

Draco looked at you and grinned.

'Definitely.' He said.
