TW: this chapter will have talks of verbal abuse and talk of suicide/ suicidal thoughts. As well as talking about death, so if that could be triggering in any way for you feel free to skip this chapter. Know my dms are always open for anyone who needs some to talk to.

Y/n: your name
Yl/n: your last name

Draco Malfoy, most would think being his friend would make you safe from his taunting and rude comments but apparently not. All day Draco has been in a bad mood, like he woke up on the wrong side of the bed. So him being reluctant to let you study with him in the library you thought it was just his attitude .

"Y/n. You're tapping your foot and it's really annoying stop." Draco's blue eyes glare in your direction as he looks up from his potions textbook. You stop your tapping immediately and put your hands under your thighs quickly. "Sorry I'm just getting really antsy. Can we take a break?" You look at him offering a small smile to maybe lighten up his crabby attitude.

"No, but be my guest and go for a walk. I'll get some piece and quiet." His voice seemed harsher then using taking you back a bit. "O-okay sorry. I'll go to my dorm." The uneasiness in your voice only seemed to annoy him more as he looked at you hurrying to gather your stuff. "You're so bloody sensitive it's nauseating. Sit back down Yl/n."

Usually the blondes comments don't get to you but today was the last straw apparently. "What did I do Draco? Just because you had a bad day don't give you the right to take it out on me." You stayed calm as you spoke just looking down at him still sitting in the chair trying to read his emotions.

Draco just laughs under his breath at your comment and push his book back to show he's ready to argue. " You've always been insufferable to be around. Just speaking my mind is all." The smirk plastered on his face made your blood boil. "You're a real Arse Draco Malfoy." Angry tears start to block your vision as you look at him taking in your words.

Draco stands up towering over you. "Merlin, I wish we never met. You're a spineless half blood." His words fell out like venom on his tongue. Being blinded by angry, sadnesses and confusion you spoke with the most confidence you have ever had. "Wish granted Malfoy." A hard shove gets him out of your was making your dash out the library door a tense one to anyone who witnessed.

Pathetic. Spineless Halfblood. I wish we had never meet. Two can play by your words Malfoy because in this moment I wish we never met.

*the next day*
~Draco's POV~

I had hot water for my shower this morning. Blaise didn't tie all my shoe laces together while I slept and I made it to the great hall in time to get a raisin bagel for breakfast. Yesterday was a mad morning. Things finally changed for once. I was even early to first hour today. Then lunch came around and all Pansy wanted to do was complain.

"Then Crabbe spilled ink on my favorite shoes." I laughed lightly as Pansy hit Crabbe in the back of the head when he laughed at his dismay. "Take it down a notch, I'm sure y/n has shoes you can borrow." I started to eat my apple when all the chatter at the table stopped making me look up to see a lot of confused eyes on me. "Y/n who Draco?" Now from Goyle that's not an unusual comment so I laugh lightly.

"Y/n yl/n you idiot." Honestly sometimes I worry about that memory of yours." I start to go back to my apple when Blaise speaks up. "That fucked up man. Even for you." Now I was confused, what is wrong with them this morning.

"What's wrong with me saying y/n has shoes to borrow?" Blaise laughs uncomfortably as everyone else looks at him with even more concern on their faces. "Mate, Y/n l yl/n died almost 3 years ago and we don't really think it's funny to mock that." Pansy speaks adding onto his statement. "Especially how she died. It's just kinda insensitive Draco."

Dead. Y/n is dead. I was just with her yesterday. How and when?

My confusion must have been plastered on face because I never uttered a word when Blaise spoke again. "Y/n yl/n committed suicide in year 5. (I'm having it be age 16 because all characters in images are 18+) How do you not remember that?" I look at Blaise to see if maybe he's playing some prank on me and everyone else is in on it.

Yet the longer I stare at him the more confused everyone gets. I try to shake off my shock. "Sorry I guess I'm not over my weird brain fog I was in yesterday. Sorry guys." I don't think anyone bought my explanation but they quickly dropped it and moved onto something new.

Suicide. 5th year. When did we become friends with y/n. The hot day in May.

*Draco's memory*
~Draco's POV~

The forest is not such a bad place, when you find the right spot. A view of the stars and the water, what more could a person ask for. The wind calms you as the sound of the forest comes alive. Everything is so peaceful. Except when someone is in you're not so secret spot.

A girl stands looking out on the lake her hair blowing in the chill of the sunset. She steps close to the edge just enough to see over at the water seeming to have no fear of the rocks and water below.

Leave the weird girl alone or kick her out of our spot? In that moment I notice her white tennis shoes and socks to the right of her a few feet away away.

Weird girl in the woods with no shoes on. All signs point to leave her alone. So I abandoned my secret hideout for another time when shoeless isn't around

*end of memory*
~Still Draco's POV~

All day. All day I've been hoping, praying that Baise, or Pansy would come up and tell me it was all some joke and y/n is not dead. I hadn't seen her all day but I was hoping she was ignoring me and not dead like I'm being told.

Asking questions about what is happening makes everyone worry about my sanity so I've been keeping quiet and it's driving me crazy.
I'm going to her dorm if she answers it's all a joke and haha those idiots got me good.

Walking in the courtyard the wind blowing leaves on the ground around my feet. My eyes stay on my feet as the awful lump in my throat shows up. That when my eyes see something white in the leaves and my curiosity always getting the best of me I move the leaves to see a pair of white tennis shoes. Written across both shoes *y/n yl/n. Gone but never forgotten.*

The white shoes of the mystery girl on that hot day in May.

This is not an request and I'm sorry about that. This idea popped into my head while watching TikTok's and my shriveled up writers block brain Conjured up this beauty I hope you can enjoy. I love you all💕
