Dron, Our Story

Curse

Ron POV

1 month later. I sit in the common room with Hermione and Ginny. Harry left during lunch today and I have no idea where he is. I sigh loudly when suddenly the door flungs open to a heavy breathing Harry. His shirt is torn and he looks scared. I get out of my seat. "Harry? What happened?" I manage to ask. "Draco.." He just says. My eyes widen. "Whats with Draco?" I take steps closer to him. I havent siad Dracos name out loud in a long time. Ive been trying to forget him. "Draco cursed Katie Bell and nearly killed her" He chokes out. He then continues on with how he followed him to the bathroom and they had a fight. "You used a forbidden spell on him?" I exclaim. "I had to, he was attacking me" I sigh. "Where is he now?" Hermione asks. "Probably in the infirmary" Time Skip. Harry and Ginny have gone to get rid of the Snape book and I sit with Hermione. "Do you still love him?" She asks. "Huh?" I look at her. "Draco, you seemed very worried" She says. I bite down on my bottom lip. "Of course I still love him, Mione. I always will. But he doesnt love me back and I cant change it" I say to her, making her frown. "Dont say that Ron, I think he still loves you. I dont think everythings good with him right now, something is definitely going on and thats why he didnt want to tell you" She tells me. "So he just made an excuse cause it was too much on him." She says and I listen carefully. "Maybe.. Should I visit him in the infirmary?" I ask her. "Do you want to?" She asks me back. I just nod. "Then go do it" She gives me a smile, I smile back. "Thank you" I give her a quick hug and go to the infirmary. Once I reach it, I slowly enter, afraid of seeing Draco. We havent talked at all. Sometimes I see him in the hall, we make eye contact but immediatley look away. He doesnt show up to lessons most of the time and only once in a while I see him eating. Im concerned for him but I cant do anything. I cant believe he was the one that did the curse on Katie Bell. Why would he do such a thing? Was he forced? Or is he back to being his old rude self? I dont get it. I walk closer through the infirmary to find Madam Pomfrey. "Oh Ron dear, who are you here to see?" She asks. "Uh Malfoy" I say, feeling a weird tingle in my body. I havent addresed to him by his last name since we started dating. "Alright dear, but he is currently asleep, so maybe visit later" She says. I nod at that. "Its okay, I just want to see him for a few minutes and then ill go" I say and she shows me to him. I see him laying on the little bed. Madam Pomfrey smiles at me and then walks away. I take a seat by him and examine his face. His face is calm, hair messy although nowadays its never neat. He breathes slowly and eyes occasionaly flutter. His lips are pink and have little cuts on them, he bites down on his lips when stressed, Ive noticed that. I look at his hands, he has multiple scratches and cuts on them. I frown at the sight. I put my hand on his and slightly massage it, carefully not to wake him. "Oh Draco.. I miss you so much" I whisper, mostly to myself. I sigh, rethinking everything thats happened between us. I miss his genuine smile. His blue happy eyes. The taste of his soft lips. His deep voice. His body. His touch. His love. I miss Us. "I never realised how much I love you. How important you are to me until we broke up. Ive been trying to be strong this past month but I keep thinking about you nearly every day. Before going to bed, wishing you were there with me. Before lessons, thinking of our secret meetups. Its so hard but im trying. And I just hope you know that I love you Draco. Forever" I start to tear up. I should go. I get up and let go of his hand. I quickly check no ones looking and lean in. I place a kiss on his lips and as much as I dont want to lean away, I do. I smile slightly and sigh. I leave the infirmary.

Draco POV

Once I hear the footsteps go further and further away, I open my eyes. I raise my body and look down at my hands. Ron. I love you too. And im sorry. Madam Pomfrey appears, and I thank her. I told her that if Ron comes to say that im sleeping. And she did. But he still insisted to see me. In that moment, I resisted so hard to not just kiss him hardly and tell him the truth but I cant do that. Its not safe.
