MY EVERYTHING ||| Draco Malfoy

Lucretia

I rush to potions, already knowing I'm late from the halls being completely empty and no V when i woke up. I listen to my quick footsteps and as i turn a corner i bash into someone,  stumbling back before they catch me, their arms around my waist making my squeal echo around the halls. I let out a short smile as i see Cedric's signature smile. Definitely going to be late.

"Hey i was just looking for you" he greets keeping his arms around my waist. "Hey. Sorry i wasn't looking i-

Cedric chuckles, interrupting my flustered state as i let out a small sigh of relief. "Whats up?" I ask as i look up into his eyes. "Just wanted to see you" he shrugs leaning in a bit closer. I raise my eyebrows as my arms stretch up and around his neck "oh really?" I grin leaning a tiny bit closer but freeze as a thought crosses my mind. "Wait. If I'm late that means you are. And you cant have potions if i do so why are you in the dungeons?" I wonder confused

Cedric lets out a soft chuckle, squeezing his arms slightly. "Like i said. I was looking for you. You weren't at breakfast and i knew you had potions so i thought-

That's all i needed to hear before smashing my lips onto his in a quick motion. Cedric grins into the kiss, obviously liking the interruption as he leans me against the wall, one arm extending out to lean on the wall just above me. I shake my had lightly as i pull away a bit. "Wait no shape is gonna kill me if i show up now-

"So don't go" Cedric smirks as his other hand trails down to my ass. "Golden boy turning bad?" I raise my eyebrows. He smirks down at me "your influence is finally rubbing off" he takes a step back from the wall, grabbing my hand and linking it with his as he drags me along the hall.

"Where are we going?" I question as he skips past the stairs to go up from the dungeons. "Your dorm" he turns his head to me cheekily. I let out a light scoff at his forwardness but moves on as he swings our arms lightly.

...

"Soph Snape is piss-

V barges into our dorm but freezes when she sees me and Cedric covering ourselves with my sheets. "Hey V" i squeak out as she widens her eyes. Cedric quickly clears his throat and runs his hand through his hair. "Uhm. Imma- just give you guys a sec too-

She quickly closes the door behind her and Cedric flops down onto the bed, his hands covering his face. I let out a little chuckle. "Relax. It's V" i shrug as i stand up and grab my stuff from the floor.

Cedric lets out a little scoff and sits up, leaning back on his hands as he watches me get dressed. "Relax? A Slytherin just walked in on me in bed" he raises his eyebrows and i stop scrunching my eyebrows. "A Slytherin? Whats that supposed to mean?" I ask slightly offended. He rolls his eyes slightly "you know what i mean. Your house has a reputation that's all" Cedric explains as he gets up and starts to get dressed as well.

"So does Hufflepuff?" I let out a slight scoff, annoyed at his words. "Come on Sophia, you know what i mean" he glances at me as he looks for his shirt. I spot it and pick it up, taking a step towards him. "You should go. You wouldn't wanna to be seen in a Slytherins dorm." I lightly chuck the shirt towards him stepping back lightly as he takes it. "Soph-

"Just go Cedric. I have to get to astronomy." I look towards the floor and without looking up i hear feet shuffling and the door close lightly. I breathe in deeply, trying to compose myself before V rushes in with a big grin on her face.

"You skipped Potions for that?!" She squeals, dropping some books on her bed. "Yeah. And it so wasn't worth it" i scoff slopping down onto my bed. "That bad?" She questions wincing. "No but he just made an annoying comment. I don't know it just got to me a bit" i shrug as i grab my astronomy book, heading for the door with V behind me.

"What did he say?" V asks as she walks by my side. "Doesn't matter" i shake it off as we enter the common room. "Do you think you're getting annoyed at Cedric because you like Draco?" She raises her eyebrows and i glance at her. "V i don't like Draco." I let out a little laugh at the accusation. "Just wait for it" V mummers with a smile creeping onto her face.

...

Draco's POV

I make a face filled with disgust as Ed shoves a sandwich in his mouth from across the table. Blaise sighs deeply next to him, playing with food on his plate. I furrow my eyebrows at him as he looks up at me before sighing dramatically again.

"What?" I snap. Giving in to Blaise's plea of attention. He lets out a short smile before leaning in a bit closer. "When are you gonna do something about Sophia?" He wonders as Ed chews on his food, listening in. I roll my eyes at his constant asking. "Never." I scoff before stabbing a chip with my fork. "Seriously Draco! V talked to her about it-

My head shot up at him, eyes widening "What?!"

"He said that V talked-

"Shut up you twat" i interrupt his repetition but added with a mouthful of spitting food. He can honestly be revolting around food. Ed sends me a little wink. "Look. V said Sophia would never do anything because she doesn't want to ruin your friendship. That's when you swoop in and take the first move"

Soph is right. If she even said that. Our friendship is too strong to ruin by just some stupid move to see if she likes me. Which she doesn't. It's all in the guys heads...well i think it's creeping into mine a bit too. It's just those moments. When we're together and everything stops. I look at her smile. Those moments are in my head.

"You're on some sort of potion" i shake my head looking back down at my food. "No you are. But yours is a blind potion because you obviously cant see what's right in front of you" Blaise reply's taking a drink of his water. God he sounds more like V every day.

...

I quietly walk into my dorm, a relief washing over me as lessons are finally finished. I chuck my transfiguration book on my bed and freeze when i see one of the many family owls waiting by the open window. I close my eyes as i hear the haunting silence of the empty room before breathing in and opening my eyes, heading over to the owl. I lightly take the letter from him and give him a little treat from my desk before he flutters off.

I look down at my mother's fancy writing on a white envelope, my day ruined by a simple piece of paper. It's probably my 'expectations and requirements of being a Diamond'. I scoff to myself shaking my head slightly. I should have been getting this letter on the first week of school. But that was weeks ago. Because they are completely oblivious of me. My life at Howarts. That's why they didn't come and say goodbye at the platform once again like they promised.

Sophia Lucretia Diamond

That's what the envelope read. Her formal tone completely normalised. Normal mums would just say their first name. Lucretia. God she was so obsessed with herself she quite literally had to include herself in even my name.

My thoughts are interrupted when a light knocking comes from the door. As i look up to the door i take a second to let my voice work. "Come in" i greet with a gulp. Draco walks in, already walking towards me and stopping next to me. "Hey, you weren't at dinner-

He pauses as he sees the envelope before looking up into my eyes sympathetically. He can tell. He's seen enough of these envelopes with my full name on as i have. He lets out a short sigh before stepping closer to me, enough for me to get a smell of his expensive cologne.

"You gonna read this one?" He speaks up about to take it from my hands put i pull it away lightly before tearing it into two in my hands. Im so fucking fed up of being told who to be from a woman who has treated me like a toy my whole life. I push it into my bin with some water pooling in my eyes but i blink and they're gone. Immune to the actions of them. I turn back to Draco, a small smile on my face. "Lets go. Im starving" i brush it off about to walk past him when he stops me, tackling me in a hug from around my waist. My arms land around his neck immediately and a tear escapes from my eye. God he can read me. I squeeze him tight, angry at myself for still being upset over them. 14 years of living with them and they can still break me.

Draco holds me just as tight, mumbling into my hair. "It's ok. You're not alone Soph."
