Where have you been?

I WOKE UP TO THE COLD FEELING of a floor beneath my body. All the memories from last night crashed through my head like a wave.

I got up my eyes scanning the room for the blonde boy, but he was no where to be seen.

He must have just went to class already..

.

The whole day went by and I hadn't seen him once which began to worry me. What if they found out he told someone? He could be in trouble right now for all I know.

Then another day did.

And another.

And then it had been a full week since the last time I saw him.

Everything I did he was always still in the back of my mind.

Should I owl him..

No, no, that's way to risky.

I grabbed my book from my bedside table with exhaustion well slipping on a pair of soft slippers and began making my way down to the common room.

I had been coming here every night to see if he would walk in or something.. but that was never the case.

I flipped through the pages of my book as the scent of fire filled my nose and the cold leather of the couch touched my skin.

A yawn escaped my mouth as I heard the footsteps of someone entering the common room.

My head shot to the side as the blonde boy that I had been looking for appeared.

"Draco!" I shouted as he began to walk to the boys dormitory.

"Rowel." He nodded his head before turning around.

"Rowel? What the fuck?" I responded offended as he stopped in his tracks before beginning to walk again.

I shot up walking up towards him and grabbing his hand pulling him to face me.

"What?" He hissed.

"So your going to just ignore the fact you disappeared for a whole entire week?" I whisper shouted at him.

"What does it mean to you?" He spat glaring at me.

"This is unbelievable- so your just going to pretend that night didn't happen?" I asked.

"Look it meant bloody nothing." He spat at me.

"Oh don't do that whole bullshit 'I don't care' thing on me." I said shaking my head as tears filled my eyes.

"You sat there and cried in my bloody arms Draco!" I started. "I saw the death mark-" I was cut off by his hand clamped over my mouth pushing me up against the wall behind me.

"Keep it down will you?" He whispered into my ear as his breath fanned over my neck sending shivers down my spine.

"Draco.." I said after he removed his hand grabbing his chin to look at me, his grey eyes meeting mine.

"I want to help you. No matter how much of an asshole you are you don't deserve this-" I finished with a tear trailing down my cheek.

"Just please let me help you- my parents are definitely apart of this too, and I- I might have to be apart of it some day too." I said crying more harder, I had never shared that with anyone before. "Fuck- and I don't want to destroy my life from-"

I was cut off by the blonde pulling me into his arms as my knees got weak.

"If your helping me.. I will do anything in my power to prevent you from joining us." He said rubbing my back as I cried into his shoulder. Well how the tables have turned.

"Okay.." I whispered well wiping the salty tears off my face.

He pulled away as I sniffled looking down at my feet.

"Oh don't get all soft on me Arabella." He said well tucking a strand of hair behind me ear.

"Fuck off." I said pushing his chest lightly.

"Meet me here tomorrow at 8:00 sharp." He started walking away before turning to face me once again. "Don't be late." He finished well pointing a finger at me walking away to his dorm.

Fuck I just cried in front of Draco Malfoy.
