Eclipse ; Draco Malfoy

Chapter Thirty-one

a u r o r a f o r s y t h e

Aurora,

I know what you are up to, darling, and as your mother, I am worried. We told you to stop hanging out with that Malfoy boy but you refused to listen. Just to let you know, someone told us what you are planning and I don't want you to pursue that.

Don't you feel pity for yourself? You want him to come back to you when in the first place he's the one who lost you. Please, Aurora, I'm begging you, stop it. I want you to be happy but not in that way. Not with that Malfoy boy.

Didn't you remember what your dad said? He'll bring nothing but trouble to you. I know you love him, darling, because I was once like you and I fought for your father but your father's family is different.

Malfoy family is dangerous, Aurora, they're criminals. There are thousands, probably millions of boys around there, whether Muggles or Wizards and we don't care about blood purity as long as it isn't that Malfoy boy. There's Fred and George and Ron or Percy or could've been any of your schoolmates but not him, not with any Slytherins.

I didn't tell your dad about this because I know he will be furious but that doesn't mean I won't tell him. He needs to know about this, maybe some other day.

That's all my darling. Please stay safe. We miss you, specially Celena. Oh and please, avoid any distractions that can destroy your future.

Avoid him, Aurora.

Love,
Mum

I couldn't understand why they were like that. I mean, I see no difference between how my parents fell in love with each other and how Draco and I did. Besides, I am creating my future and not ruining it. He's part of it. I want him to be part of it.

I swipe the tears that are slowly pouring out of my eyes. There are millions of words in our language but for some reasons, why did mum chose to write those words? I thought she would understand. I really thought they would because they have been through that, but no.

"Rainbow comes to all who feel rain." I muttered while smiling sheepishly in front of Fred and George as I close the parchment. "Fancy a cup of tea?" I quizzed as they silently gawk and nodded synchronously.

I stood up and grabbed the tea bags and placed it inside the cups, pouring hot water from the tip of my wand.

"You see, Aurora, we were built to break every time we fall in love." snapped Fred as he leans his back on the couch.

"You knew you deserve more but he didn't do anything about it." George barged in, resting his elbow on top of his knee, "The same way you need to move on and move forward but you are afraid of what might come next."

I walked towards them, handing them the cup of tea I made.

"That night you are drunk, Aurora, I was worried about you." George added, smiling weakly, "We were late that night but as I enter the Common Room," he exhaled sharply, "you were the first one I looked for." he resumed while I glance at him with my face starting to heat up. "Then I asked Ginny if she knew where you are but she told me you wanted to breathe some fresh air that's why you left, and so I know where to find you." he looked into my eyes and resumed, "I was mad and jealous when I saw him kissing you. He's taking advantage of your weakness, Aurora and I was worried." he broke the eye contact and gaze somewhere else, "If I didn't catch him kissing you, he might as well touch your body."

I laughed feebly, "Sorry, George," I smiled, "I was the one who kissed him." I replied shyly, "I was drunk and I didn't know what I am doing."

I lied. Although I am drunk, I can still hear what I am saying and knows what I am doing and I meant it. I meant every single word I told Draco, every action I did.
