(Y/n)'s POV
I awake to the sound of the morning bell ringing and pick my head up off of Draco's. I look down at him, curious if he was still asleep. He looks peaceful and serine as he sleeps. His chest heaves up and down steadily.
I smile faintly, noticing his arm around my waist. Why am I acting this way? We're not even friends- at least not officially or anything- I don't know what has come over me. I shake my head, closing my eyes, and resting my head back on Draco's. I feel him snuggling closer in his sleep, making me fight back a smile.

Draco's POV
I wake up suddenly, eyes flying open. What time is it? I jump slightly as I realize (y/n)'s arms are wrapped around me. Before pushing her away, I remember last nights events. I had a nightmare. Nothing new there. I guess (y/n) heard me, cause she woke me up. Oh shit! I cried in front of her! Come on, really? And I let her hug me? I slip my arm around (y/n)'s waist, carefully. She was gentle though, maybe being vulnerable with her isn't so bad. I release a frustrated sigh. Of course that would be bad! What is wrong with me? She would think I'm weak. I hesitate to pull away from (y/n). I suddenly catch a whiff of her perfume, It smells like wildflowers. Against my better judgment, I remain in her warm, comforting embrace. The morning bell begins to ring, and I feel (y/n) stirring. She lifts her head up off of mine for a moment, but eventually lays it back down, causing a smirk to play on my lips. I take a chance, hoping she would assume I'm still asleep, and snuggle closer to her. To my relief, she doesn't distance herself from me. Instead, she squeezes me slightly.

                       (Y/N)'s POV
I sit comfortably with Draco in my arms for about another five minutes. We should probably get up soon. Wouldn't want anyone walking in on us like this. I reluctantly pick my head up and turn it towards Draco.
"Draco."
I murmur, rubbing his back in a counter-clockwise motion. He doesn't stir.
"Draco."
I repeat. This time he hums lightly in response.
"Shouldn't we get up?"
I ask, continuing to message his back.
"Yeah, probably."
He murmurs, never moving or even opening his eyes. We sit still for another moment, until Draco slowly pulls away. I get up and walk over to my own makeshift bed. After using my wand to get rid of the pillows and blankets, I glance over at Draco who is rubbing his eyes and yawning. His platinum, blonde hair is disheveled slightly, and his uniform wrinkled. I look down at my own uniform and notice the sloppy shape it's in. I try to fix it, but ultimately fail. I look over to Draco, who is attempting to fix his hair, but it proves to be a struggle without his reflection to look at. I laugh softly, which seems to catch Draco's attention.
His eyes meet mine, stunning me with their beauty. He smirks, never losing eye contact with me. Almost as if lost in a daze, I stride right over to the blonde boy and take hold of his wrists, forcing them down. I let go and reach up to fix Draco's hair myself. Once I'm satisfied with it, I drop my hands to my sides. My gaze drops to see Draco staring at me. I suddenly realize what I've just done, and feel my cheeks flush slightly.
"Sorry."
I mumble,looking down. Draco places his pointer finger under my chin, forcing my gaze back to his. He searches my eyes for a moment, before his gaze flickers down to my mouth. My heart flutters under his stare. He finally leans in, pressing his soft lips against mine. I pull back slightly in shock, but immediately lean back in. My arms come around his neck, deepening the kiss as he slides his arms around my waist. After a moment, I pull away slowly, considering it my turn to search his eyes. I see something that surprises me: vulnerability.
"(y/n)?"
Draco mumbles, still holding me close to him. I nod, humming in response.
"Mhm?"
He seems to hesitate for a moment, but opens his mouth anyways. Just then the classroom door opens.
"What the hell?!"
