"Nothing! You must me joking"
Theo "Do I look like I'm joking"
he said it with a serious tone.I looked at him hurt. "So our kiss, all those nights we spent together, studying in the library-"
Theo "meant nothing"
"Then why bother with me in the first place"
Theo "you were the only person that talked to me, who else was I supposed to manipulate?"
"Your fucking sick Mattheo"
He looked over at me confused
Theo "so it's Mattheo now?"
I didn't respond, instead I walked out of the bathroom, flipping him off as I walked out the door. But as soon as the door shut, I couldn't hold it in. I cried, quietly until I heard a knock on the door. I pulled myself together and opened the door to see Draco.
Draco "oh what happened"
"I- well he-"
I couldn't force the words out without a tear falling down my face. Draco stepped into my dorm, shutting the door.
Draco "tell me what happened y/n, I swear I will kill him if he hurt you"
We walked towards my bed and sat down. Draco sat down some of my favorite chips and candies in front of me.
"Well obviously you know he and Pansy were dancing."
Draco "mhm"
"Um so I ran into him a few minutes ago and when I asked him about it he said I meant nothing to him... he said i was just something for him to manipulate.."
Draco "What! I'm gonna kill him"
Draco stood up and began walking towards my door but I stopped him.
"It's not worth it Draco, he's unreasonable... plus I'm pretty sure he would beat you"
Draco "I don't give a damn y/n! Nobody does that to you, and I mean nobody. Your my best friend in the world y/n.... I'm gonna protect you no matter what"
"And I love that about you but I can't let you do that"
Draco "why?"
"Because I don't want you getting hurt"
Draco "fine, but I see him doing ANYTHING that he shouldn't I'm going after him"
"Fine"
Draco sat back down next to me
Draco "are you gonna eat the snacks or do I have to?"
"Sorry I just don't have much of an appetite"
He looked down at my hands
Draco "y/n... your doing the thing again"
I looked down at my hands to see my hand in a fist, with my nails digging into my skin causing my hands to bleed.
"Shit"
Draco "I haven't seen you do that in a long time"
A few years ago when Draco and I first started getting close I had a habit of doing that whenever I was really mad or stressed.
"Yeah..."
I got up and wrapped a bandage around it before sitting back down and leaving back against my pillow.
Draco "you alright?"
"Yeah I'm fine, just tired"
He leaned back and stroked my hair before getting up.
Draco "get some sleep, tomorrow we'll figure something out"
He turned to walk out the door
"Wait Draco!"
Draco "yeah?"
"Thank you"
He smiled before walking out the door. I laid in bed exhausted but not able to sleep for what felt like ages, before finally falling asleep. Even as I slept I only dreamed of one thing.
