Fuck! I can't find my hoodie, I literally had it hanging on my chair next to my desk! Shit. if anyone sees my arms it'll end with tears, questions and anger, especially Mattheo i'm not ready to face that yet. I slipped on my black cardigan pulling it down my arms and holding the sleeve ends in my hands, and headed down into the common room where Pansy, Draco, Theo, Mattheo and Enzo were all sitting and talking to each other.
"Oh, hey Y/N!" Pansy said, alerting everyone else that I was here
"are you alright?" She asked, looking at my face etched with worry and nervousness.
"Yeah, I'm fine, I was just wondering if anyone has seen my hoodie? I can't find it and i need it" everyone else stared at me then at each other with looks
"None of us have seen it, sorry" Enzo said
"Why do you need it anyway? It's like 23 degrees out?" Theo asked. Everyone was staring at me except for Draco because he probably didn't care about me losing my hoodie.
"I need to wash it" that's probably the best excuse I'll get right now. I looked at Mattheo and I could see him trying to figure something out in his head or something.
"Are you sure that none of you have seen it? Because I really do need it"' I practically begged them. It's the only one that's long enough.
"No, we haven't" Draco finally spoke up. "Alright, thanks anyway" i said before i turned back and basically ran to my dorm
I stopped in my tracks when I heard footsteps behind me, I sprinted up the stairs and into my dorm, locking the door before they could catch up with me. I collapsed against my bed and dropped to my knees softly crying with my head in my hands, I peeked my head up when I heard a knock on the door.
"Love? Open up darling, it's me" Mattheo said softly. The last thing I wanted to do was hurt him and worry about me. I didn't answer and kept still in my spot, when i heard Mattheo cast a spell and the door flew open
I stood up and tried my best to wipe my tears but red-rimmed eyes would give it away in seconds. He stood in front of me with an angry look mixed with sadness, my worst nightmare had come true.
"I'm not as stupid as the rest of them" he says "show me" he said with a stern tone.
"No" I refused.
"For once, please don't make things difficult" I could practically hear the tears he was choking on and my heart broke hearing it.
"Fine" please look at me the same.
I rolled up both my sleeves and there were the scars and cuts that I'd done. His eyes dropped to them and took my hands his holding them, his mouth slightly falling open and his eyes widened for a second before filling with tears
"When did you do this?" he asked like he didn't have any breath in his lungs.
"During class, at night, studying and other things" i said letting a few tears fall onto the ground.
"During class? When i was sat right next you?!" he said with his voice slightly raised
"How, how, how did i not notice" no, i wasn't gonna let him blame himself. And with that my heart shattered right there. It's not his fault.
"Don't you dare say that, it's not your fault" I cried. He lightly grazed his fingers over my arms and i could see the pain etched on his face.
"Why didn't you tell me, I-i, could've helped you" he said. He couldn't have though, it's my pain to bare. Not his. I lifted my hands to his face and cupped his jaw holding him, feeling the tears stream down. "I know, but i love you too much to worry you" i said softly. He grabbed my wrists and gently ran his thumb across my skin repeatedly, holding me back "why are you doing it?" he asked.
"I'm failing class, my family is forcing me to become a death eater like them and I feel like everyone hates me." Being a Malfoy isn't easy, especially when your older brother, father and aunt are death eaters and work for the dark lord. They said when i turn 17 i'll have to follow them.
"Draco never told me that and no one hates you darling, we all adore you. I'll help you with your studies and maybe ask Tom cuz' he's smarter than me" he explained as he brought our hands down in front of me looking me in the eyes.
"No! Not Tom, he scares me" i smiled. He chuckled and smiled a little.
"Draco didn't tell you because he doesn't want anyone to know we're death eaters. Orders from my father" i said. Draco didn't know about my self harm because if he did, he would tell my mother and she would tell Bellatrix and that would end in disaster.
"I'm not going anywhere, love I promise. I love you" he said.
"I love you too" I smiled. He pulled me into a hug and wrapped his arms around me so tight, afraid that I might disappear at any second.
"You're gonna get through this" he said before placing a kiss on the top of my head
