Alone Together || Draco Malfoy [ANOTHER UNIVERSE SERIES#1]

IX

TW: Panic attack

Avery Eloise Greenperth

People were cheering us, and George and Fred were teasing us. I was conscious of the crowd because I know that Ginny had feelings for Harry and I feel bad, I feel like I stole the love of her life.

There also have these thoughts of me that 'Yes finally I pulled out the guy that I love' but there is also the part of me that there is still missing and I don't know what it is.

Don't get me wrong, I love being around Harry but I feel like there is missing something, there is something wrong and I don't know why I feel with him when he's around.

"We should go to Hermione's dorm so that we can plan for your surprise birthday party for her," I whispered.

"What are you going to the dorm huh!!" I heard George yell.

"Of course, they would've make—" Fred was cut off when Malfoy passed by with a bouquet of flowers in his hands. It was more likely Sunflowers with a flash of red roses wrapped in cellophane as well.

"Merlin's beard why do you look wasted, mate?" Fred held his shoulder to look at the face of Draco's.

"Get out of the way, Weasleys," He shrugged his shoulders, Fred let go of Draco's shoulder, and the students made a way for Draco to walk. I followed my gaze to him, his hair was a mess and he looked very tired.

He was wearing now Black long sleeve polo with two buttons open. I looked at Harry that was looking around uncomfortably. "We better go to Hermione's," I said, I held his wrist as we went in the same direction as Malfoy's.

The students cheered us when they saw that I was pulling Harry while walking. I sighed heavily, I know I hate attention, and this is what I am talking about.

I hate people cheering me and well I love it sometimes. It depends on the situation, I kinda love this attention though but not when I feel like I am hurting someone, I love it when it's about academics, when I was chosen for valedictorian, or when people were amazed at how I presented my presentation in front of the class.

People were making a space when we were bumping, I kept apologizing when I bumped into anyone.

Once we made it to the common room, I'd never felt so amazed by the place of Gryffindor. It gave me comfort.

The common room was far different from Slytherin.

They had a large globe in the middle and were surrounded by red sofas. Fireplace when I reached the corner of the room, there is also small sofas in front of it while there was a small table in the middle with the chess board.

It was cosy and the wallpapers had a lot of patterns and were decorated by Scarlett tapestries, the aroma was like a squashy type. There are a lot of paintings and portrait that was swung and hanging in the room.

The room was a circular room, there are a lot of large windows not like the room in Slytherins which has only three large rooms. The mantle of the fireplace also had a design of the lion to represent a Gryffindor, there were a lot of bookcases in every corner and a bookshelves.
