Deception in Between us - Draco x Yn

Chapter 7

I gathered the snacks, and a few of the movies we watched together that she said she liked. I even put my ring on a chain because I knew that she favored a particular ring. I wrote a really long letter telling her how much she matters to me. I walked over to her house, unsure if I should knock or just walk into her room like I had done many times before. The sun was just setting now, for safety measures I started throwing small rocks at her window.

I saw her open look out her window and her gaze landed on me. "What do you want?" She aggressively whispers loud enough for me to hear.

"To talk. Please, just come down here, or let me up." My eyes do all of the pleadings for me, hoping my words hold enough power, "Please." 

"Just a sec, I'll be right down." She tried to pretend she was annoyed but I could tell by the way she communicated with me that she was nothing near. She walked out of the front door with her hair in loose braids falling to each side of her face, she was wearing a white tank top that matched the colour of her grey sweatpants well. "Look, I'm not really in the mood to deal with your-"

I cut her off by pulling her into a tight hug. The kind of hug that may crush your bones, but the overlaying emotion and safety of the embrace makes you never want to leave. "I'm sorry." The words came out as a whisper, words that most people would miss.

She pulled away from the warmth and protections of my clutch and looked me in the eyes, this time she didn't hide the feeling that peaked from her irises. Pain, Confusion and subtle loneliness painted the act that would fool most people. She looked like she was about to say something, but she pulled me down to sit beside her on the step of her porch first. "Are you ashamed of me?" I could hear the shakiness of her words, like I wasn't the first person to be ashamed of her.

Guilt ate away anywhere it could reach, "Of course not." I had millions of words I wanted to say, words I had to say but for some reason I couldn't. "You are nothing to be ashamed of, You are something I am so incredibly proud and grateful for. This last month I have been with you has been the best month of my life." I meant it, the words flowed out with so much meaning, and so much power. "Don't you ever think that I am anything less than absolutely  enamored and obsessed with you." I was holding her hands, with all of my attention on her.

"Why did you act like I was a complete stranger than?" Her head tilted and she squeezed my hands more for her own comfort than mine.

"If my father found out we were together- I don't even want to begin how badly that could go." I was hoping she would understand, as, her father also wouldn't be too happy knowing she was with me. Maybe that's why I like talking with her, because she has so many similarities.

"Is he gonna put a spell on you?" She teased not even knowing how accurate what she just said is.

 I visibly tensed and tried to deter the subject. "I brought you a 'I'm sorry' gift." I lightly chuckled handing her the basket. "Maybe, tomorrow we can watch these together?" I saw her eyes flick from the basket to me with childlike excitement settling on her features. 

She smiled brightly before hugging me tight.  "Thank you dray, I really needed this." We pulled apart and kissed, like the first time, my stomach did flips, my heart skipped a beat and my face heated up. I smiled into the kiss and yet again, she froze the world. Something only Yn Yln could do. 

When I met her eyes again, she looked excited and alive, "I love this movie." The word wrang in my head as I watched her admire the movie, and held it close to herself. "We are definitely watching this one first!"

We sat in silence enjoying each other's company. "Don't do that again." She quietly murmured,

"I promise I will always come back to you," I vowed. "I will even crawl out of my grave." I teased kissing the top of her head.

 Yn Yln... I don't remember before her, I only exist during her, and I would rather die than ever have to experience after her. Love. What a tricky thing <3
