Draco sighed as he leaned against the wall

he didn't want you to sense his presence, he looked at you from his hideout

it was Slughorn's Christmas party night and you were wearing an amazing black dress that hugged your body so perfectly

your hair was loose on your shoulders and Draco just wanted to run his fingers through it so bad

he hasn't spoken to you much ever since you kissed him in that hallway

actually, he has been avoiding you as much as he could

if someone asked him to explain the reason, he wouldn't be able to. he didn't know why feeling your lips on his made him feel that way

now he regretted pushing you away and not reciprocating your gesture, who knows when will it happen again?

but what was done could not be changed

the blonde sighed as he watched Harry Potter coming in your direction with a smile on his face

Draco told you to go ahead and that he'll reach you later at the party because he had something to take care of first

<where's Malfoy?>

it was the first thing that Harry asked you after greeting you with a quick hug

<he'll join us later...>

you explained and forced a little smile on your face. Harry didn't have time to ask any more questions even tho he wanted to because his plus one joined the two of you

<I've never been to this part of the castle>

Luna said after reaching you and Harry

<at least not while awake. I sleepwalk, you seem. that's why I wear shoes to bed>

she continued her monolog even without receiving any feedback from you as you walked toward the party

Draco made sure you disappeared behind the door of Slughorn's party and got up from his place

he knew where he was supposed to go and what he was supposed to do but he stayed there staring at the closed door a little longer debating whether he should go in and join you or not

just when he made a step to the door he shook his head coming back to reality

that's not what he was supposed to be doing

getting attached

falling in love

was not part of the task
