SHE POTTER | 18+

CHAPTER FIVE

DRACO MALFOY

~~

As I leave Jade's room, I bump into the guys who are eavesdropping. I glare at them. "Is there something that you blokes need?" They all grin at me. "You fancy Jade!" Ace exclaims. I groan and run my hands through my hair.

"Will you keep your voice the bloody hell down before someone hears you?!" I walk past them and into the boys' corridors. "Ah, you aren't denying it, though," Mattheo says, walking backward up the stairs in front of me.

"When did these feelings arise? Hm?" Blaise teases, "Will you all shut up? It's like having three younger brothers." I groan, opening the door to our dorm room.

I plop myself onto the bed and look up at them. "I hate talking about my feelings. I hate how she makes me feel things." I grit.

"We know you do, but at least talk to us about it before you lose Jade and before anything starts," Ace says, sitting on the window seat.

"There is fucking something about her that I can't get out of my fucking head." I grit, "I hate feelings; I hate that she makes me feel them; I also hate that I know I don't deserve her."

I have been assigned this task by the Dark Lord, whom only the boys know about. I don't want Jade to hate me. She's a Potter, but the Dark Lord chose me. They picked me to kill Dumbledore. I don't want to, but I have to.

"Maybe you just need to fuck her out of you." Mattheo suggests, "Yeah, if I do fuck her and she's still in my head, what the hell am I going to do? The Dark Lord will be after her, too. She's a fucking Potter, for Merlin's sake." I groan and undo my tie; it was making me feel as if I was being choked.

"How long do you have to finish the task?" Mattheo asks, "Repairing the fucking cabinet has taken me at least two months to do. I always work on it, but the spell won't take."

"Maybe you should tell Jade; she might understand more than you know." Blaise says, "Fuck no, she'll go tell her cousin, and I can't have him knowing." "Sleep on it, okay? I'm going to bed." Ace says as he changes and goes to bed alongside the other guys.

I lay there for hours thinking about Jade, my task, my feelings, and every fucking thing I've ever done just to make sure if things do happen with Jade, I can redeem myself to be a better person for her because I know I won't be able to do it for myself.

~~

The following day, I woke up to Blaise moving around. I think I only got two hours of sleep. We both missed breakfast, and potions class was in a little over an hour.

I change, put on my cloak, and go to Jade's room. I knocked on the door and waited for an answer, but there was none, so I opened the door and walked in.

Jade was still sleeping peacefully in bed; I bent down to look at her face. She was so beautiful; seeing her this raw without her bratty ass mouth running is a rare sight.

Thinking about telling her anything about my job was something I couldn't do just yet. Maybe after Christmas break, maybe if something becomes between us.

For the first time in a long time, I can finally consider the possibility of having someone else in my life. Someone to share the burden I have been carrying for a long time. Also, Jade takes no shit from me, and if I am being honest, I find it to be so hot. It makes me want to do the most unholy things to her.

I stroke her cheek with my thumb; unknowingly, she leans into my touch, sighing softly. Merlin's beard, she's going to be the death of me, and thinking about that, I'd love to die at her hands.

"Jade," I say softly. She hums and clings to my hand with her own. "Jade, come on, wake up," she stirs a bit. Bloody hell, she's a deep sleeper.

"Potter!" I snap. "Go away, Draco. Let me sleep more, please. " She mumbles. I sigh and walk over to the other side of the bed.
