Without you | Draco Malfoy x Y/n Potter

- Teacher -

I'm sitting by the window of my dorm just looking out at the stars because Delilah is busy finishing her homework from professor Umbridge. All of a sudden I see a black and brown feathered owl fly down to my window and perch itself on the edge.

My eyes widen and I open the window for the owl to come in and I see that it's holding a letter. "Hello." I smile as I pet the owl and take the letter from its beak.

Y/n

Seriously, Y/n. Who hurt you? Why does your hand have bandages? And don't say it's 'nothing' because I'm not stupid and know it's not. Don't tell Delilah about this letter otherwise she's gonna tease me and annoy me.

-Draco

My breath hitches as I read that the letter is from Draco. I walk over to my desk and place the letter on it and grab a piece of paper to write back to him. Delilah seemed to notice that I got a letter from someone and she asks, "Who's that from?"

I look over to her and hesitate because Draco did write to not tell Delilah. "Nobody." I lie. She sits up and her bed and gives me a look. "Y/n." I sigh knowing I can't keep anything from her since she's my best friend.

"It's from Draco." I reply. "What? Is it about your hand? I can tell him to piss off if you don't want him to know." She says. "No thanks, I'll just tell him." "Are you sure?" I stop and think for a moment.

Draco doesn't seem to mind Umbridge because he likes seeing me and Harry get in trouble so he wouldn't believe me anyway. "You're right... I'll just improvise." I whisper.

"Tell him I said 'Piss off.'" Delilah smiles mischievously. I laugh a little and then take the piece of paper and write back to Draco.

Draco

It's nothing. And I don't even get why you care so much. Also, Delilah says 'Piss off.'

-Y/n

I walk back over to the cute little owl sitting on my windowsill and she takes the letter in her beak. She flies away to I'm guessing Draco's dorm and I walk back over to my desk and pick up the letter from Draco.

I stare at the letter for a moment then place it in one of the drawers. "You're keeping it?" Delilah asks. "Yeah." "Why? Just throw it out." I sigh and shake my head ignoring her suggestion.

It's a weekend now and I'm walking around the hallways with Angelica since we don't spend much time together anymore. She's mostly with either Luna or Fred nowadays.

"So, how are things with you and Fred?" I ask. "Pretty good. He bought me this pretty bracelet in Hogsmeade." Angelica replies and holds out her wrist showing me a beautiful bracelet with blue beads. It suits Angelica a lot.

"Awh! It's cute." I say. "Thank you!" She smiles. I look down the corridor and see Hermione running towards us. She stops in front of us and looks at me. "Y/n! You know how to cast a Patronus Charm, right?" She asks.

"Yeah...Why?" "Well, we need a teacher. And you and Harry are the only students who know most defensive spells." She said. I give her a confused look.
