Tw: blood, death
,,Put that down and come over here now, (y/n)." Draco whined like a child, which made me chuckle a little. My eyes stayed on the page of my book as I muttered a quick 'yeah, wait'. Draco being Draco, he didn't care. He walked over and lifted me, wrapping his strong arms around my body. I smiled widely. He let us fall on the bed and I chuckled. ,,I need to ask you something." He told me, face turning serious.
I rolled over and on my back too. ,,Go ahead." I replied, though a little anxious.
,,You know, that we need to-"
,,Yes, Draco."
,,I'm just reminding you-"
,,But you're doing it constantly. Don't you trust me?" I turned my face to him and looked at his worried one.
,,Of course I do."
,,Well, but you're making it worse."
,,Making what worse?"
,,My feelings about it, Draco." I said, almost in a whisper. ,,You think a death eater task is so easy? I feel like I'm betraying all my friends! Well, I am. But I really don't want to and I don't mean it." I said and turned my face back. ,,Any of it." I added and a short silence entered.
,,I don't either." He whispered after a while.
,,I know."
,,And you won't feel like this forever. It'll be over. It will." He said, though sounding as if he was more trying to convince himself than me.
I hummed in response before wrapping my arms around him and falling asleep with my head on his chest.
Timeskip
,,The task. The task, the task." Bellatrix said, pretending to think. ,,The girl we trusted it with." She added. ,,How's it going, (y/n)?" She asked calmly, tilting her head.
,,I'm working on it." I muttered.
,,Working on it? You know you ruined it all, you're aware, am I right?" She asked before laughing, her laugh echoing in the big room. She took a few steps forward. ,,You disappointed us, (y/n). You're a disappointment to all of us." She looked back to the other death eaters, who were standing behind. ,,You're no use anyway, so-"
,,Don't!" Draco came in, but before anyone could react, coincidentally, uninvited people came too. And there it all began, the endless loop of spells being casted against each other, across the room.
Draco took my hand, leading me to the back of the room. ,,You alright?" He asked and I nodded. He kissed my forehead quickly. ,,I'm right here, alright? On your right." He said, moving away. I nodded again.
Defending myself as several spells were to hit me, I felt sorta proud. I had a good feeling. All until I saw Bellatrix hold her wand towards me. And within a second, she casted a spell.
I moved my hand to my chest slowly, feeling strong pain there. A heavy stich, I could feel. As if my chest was sinking, my stomach withdrawing. I raised my shaking hand to the level of my eye, lips trembling as I held back whimpers, eyes welling up as the fright was readable on my face.
The second I saw the amount of my own blood drip down my right hand, my knees felt light, weak. My feet couldn't take it any longer and gave out as I felt how every bone in my body became weaker and weaker. I could feel the way I felt colder, yet also how the warm salty tears were running down my cold cheeks. It felt all so slow, so painful. I held my breath, eyebrows furrowed in heartache.
Before my I could fall completely, the warm arms of Draco held me. That caused him to fall with me, though he managed to hold us both up anyway. One hand was at the back of my head, right above the floor, preventing my head to hit it, the other one around my waist, his face right before mine. He breathed heavily, a little bit of sweat on his forehead as he looked at me distressed. His eyes wide from what had just happened.
,,(y/n)" was the only thing he managed to get out as his eyes wandered from my cold face down to my chest. I felt his hand shake under my head slightly. I could see the way his face changed. He had fear written in his eyes.
I felt the way I lost the control of myself. The way my face softened, my lips began to part slightly, eyes wander to the dark wooden ceiling. ,,Draco" I whispered as I lifted one hand with all force and strength I had left. I stroked his cheek as he let out a shaky breath. He couldn't move, couldn't believe his eyes. ,,Draco, I love you." I let out before my whole world went black.
Draco's pov:
Her in sweat smothered face turned away from me. ,,I love you too." I got out shaking. No response. ,,I love you too, (y/n)." I repeated with all useless hope I had left. My eyes wandered over her face. Her lips, her skin, they lost their colour. She wouldn't move. My lungs felt like being pressed together. An intense feeling of utter pain washed through me as I didn't even want to believe. I didn't want to believe it. I didn't. I couldn't. ,,I love you too, (y/n)!" I repeated, louder, shaking her as if it'll do anything. ,,I love you too!" I cried through my blurred vision as I felt my skin shiver. I felt colder. ,,I love you, you hear me?" I said quietly with a cracked voice, bent down and placed my forehead on her collarbone. I cried loudly, lips parted. My tears flowed down my cheek and on hers. I pulled away and wiped her cheek and looked her in the eyes. ,,I love you." I whispered one more time, before being pulled away by my shoulder.
