TW: Mentions of self harm

Draco's POV

"I said go away! Please go away!" Y/n yelled on the other side of her door. I left. I went up to my dorm and sat on my bed with my head in my hands. Cedric Diggory is dead. How did this happen? Y/n is heartbroken. I know they were super close friends, like siblings. I understand that kind of relationship. I can't even imagine if Max died, we grew up together like siblings and best friends.

When I tried to walk Y/n back to the castle she just pushed me away. I guess she just needs space. I got up and decided to take a shower. I tried to collect all my thoughts. Cedric and I weren't necessarily super close, but we were still good friends. It feels horrible to have lost him. I still can't believe that we lost him.

After I showered I changed into pajamas and sat on my bed. Thinking. Y/n won't talk to me, or probably anyone. I want to make sure she's okay, make sure that she doesn't try to do anything. There's no use in trying to talk to her and she wouldn't answer any texts right now. I lay awake all night thinking about the events of tonight. How can Cedric be dead? Why did this happen?

Tomorrow is the last day of school. The last day at Hogwarts until next year. All the fifth years took their owl exams already. Everyone has seemed so quiet these past few days. In classes nobody talks unless they're answering a question, at meals the Great Hall doesn't seem nearly as loud as usual, and in the common room people only ever do homework, nobody talks or plays music or anything.

I haven't been able to talk to Y/n since the day of the incident. Nobody has. We sometimes see her in classes with her head down, she hasn't been at meals, and she quit Quidditch. Everyday once classes end she just goes straight to her dorm and locks herself in. She won't talk to anyone or even look at anyone. I don't know what she did but she put some charm on her door so that the Alohomora charm wont even unlock it. She also wont answer her phone. 

I'm super worried about her, so are Max and Matt. She hasn't eaten anything in like 3 or 4 days and there's nothing we can do because she physically wont let us. I'm really scared for her. I love her. I love her so much I don't think I've ever really told her. But it's not just as a friend, it's not the way Cedric, or Max, or Hermione, or Ron loves her, I love her. And I kills me for her to be doing this.

Tonight is the Leaving Feast. I heard that Dumbledore is gonna let some students who want to give speeches in honor of Cedric. I think it would be good to give the people who miss him most the chance to tell everyone a bit about him. I wonder if Y/n will be there?

After classes today, as always, Y/n headed to her dorm and locked it with the charm that none of us can break. When it's almost time for dinner, I go to the door to Y/n's dorm. 

"Y/n, I know you can hear me. Tonight is the leaving feast, people are going to give speeches in honor of Cedric, you should be there, if not for yourself then for Cedric. I know I can't force you to do anything, but please, please come." I said. I didn't hear anything at first but then I heard a drawer close shut, and footsteps toward the door. She mumbled some counter spell and the door opened. I saw Y/n.

"Okay, I'm gonna come. For Cedric," She said, her eyes were slightly red and her voice was small.

"Y/n...are you okay?" I asked her, she didn't say anything. "You've been locking yourself in your dorm everyday for almost a week, none of us have talked to you or even hardly seen you in so long, I'm worried about you,"

"It's...it's just grief I guess," she said, looking at her hands,

"I understand that, but-"

"I'll come, but please stop asking me questions, okay?" this worried me more, but I don't want her to lock herself in her dorm again so I didn't say that,
