Draco Malfoy | December 1995

Draco stared at himself in the mirror.

Not the front of him, but the back of him. Not his ass. His back, to be specific.

He tried to get rid of them, but they didn't go away. They didn't even fade a little bit. Some were fresher than others.

And that was because it kept happening.

Draco clenched his jaw and shook his head to himself as he left the bathroom. He strolled to his dresser and threw on a long-sleeved black shirt before grabbing his book bag.

He left his dorm and made his way to Elijah's dorm since the two were supposed to be working on an assignment.

Elijah's dorm was only five doors from Draco's—Draco's was the last dorm at the end of the hall—so it wasn't too far. Draco knocked on Elijah's door once he got there, and it opened three beats after.

"Hey, Malfoy." Elijah looked nervous.

"You alright, King?" Draco asked slowly in a dubious tone, brows knitted together.

Elijah nodded and looked over his shoulder quickly before back at him. "Can we actually meet at your dorm?" He scratched the back of his nearly shaved head.

"Mine?"

Elijah nodded.

"Why?"

"Because my roommates have got girls—"

"Enough said," Draco cut him off. "We'll go to my dorm."

He knew who Elijah's roommates were, and they were always fucking girls from left and right. Draco had the benefit of having his own dorm. But Elijah was nothing like his own roommates.

He didn't fuck every girl he saw or have sexual intentions with every girl who showed a bit of skin. Elijah's roommates were exactly like that.

Draco felt pity for Elijah by the fact that those were his roommates.

From what Draco observed throughout the years, Elijah had only been in one relationship, but it ended in the middle of year two.

Every now and then, Draco noticed a girl leaving Elijah's dorm, but that was no biggie. Everyone at Hogwarts University fucked people.

Elijah physically relaxed at Draco's words. "Great, I'll be there in a minute." He smiled before the door shut.

Draco stood there for a second or two, confused.

But then he turned and walked back to his dorm. He opened his door, his head hung low, and he walked into his dorm.

He turned to shut the door, and that was when he saw Kaimana walking out of Elijah's dorm with her mystery baby and a baby bag over her shoulder.

So Elijah and Kaimana were not fucking since the baby was there and obviously his roommates were not there either, Draco noted. Not that he cared. He was just observant.

Kaimana just walked down the hall, her back to Draco, and he heard her talking to her mystery baby in that baby voice people tend to do with babies.

"We're going to go get some food because Mummy's hungry now," he heard her say in a voice people talked to babies in, but it was so faint from where he stood and she walked. "You tire Mummy, baby."

And then Elijah's door opened again. "Kai, you forgot Zaiyah's pacifier!" He swung something small and purple in the air.

Kaimana turned around, and her eyes captured Draco's through his half-opened door.
