Trust Me - Draco Malfoy

11- My Love

"Draco?" I whisper, "Look at me, please."

He doesn't.

"Look at me." I snap a little more and his face turns to me.

His cheeks are wet with silent tears; it breaks my heart to see him like this. All the years I've known him he seemed like such a strong person, but now I realize that he bullied people and acted strong as a cover-up of what he really is. This is his life; this is what he has to deal with.

"I wanted to tell you. But I didn't want to hurt you." He says, trying hard to keep his tears in, it doesn't work.

"I know, I know, I'm sorry, I know." I don't know what to say to him so I bring him into a hug instead.

"Please, believe that I'm never going to hurt you, ever. You have to trust me on that, please." He whispers quietly in my ear.

"I trust you, Draco." I whisper back.

There is silent period as Draco and I just stay embraced, getting over our tears. Soon, I hear Draco say my name, I listen to him intently and he says, "I love you."

I pull away from his brace and look into his eyes, here come my tears again, "I love you too."

Draco smiles at me before pushing his lips onto mine, I'm still crying a little so this can't be that great. But Draco doesn't seem to care as he gently pushes me down onto the bed and keeps kissing me. He's completely on top of me and I can see where Draco wants this to go. However, I can also tell that Draco won't try anything if I don't lead him too it. I move my hands to the top of his shirt and begin to undo the buttons; Draco pulls his lips from mine to see what is going on.

"Really?" He asks, maybe even a little too eager.

I nod, and he kisses me once again, and starts to pulls my t-shirt from the bottom, it was a slight struggle put eventually he gets it off. When his shirt is finally off, I push him off me so I can get my own jeans off and straddle his lap as he sits up against the head board. I place my hands on his body as he gently holds my face and kisses me.

"I love you so much." He says to me.

"I love you." I say back to him.

My hands then travel down to his belt and we both watch intently as I begin to undo it. I soon get it undone, and then I look back up at him.

"Are you definitely sure about this, we don't have to-"

"Shhh," I say putting my finger against his lips. "I'm sure."

He smiles once again, before placing his lips back on mine.

We lay on the bed together, our bodies pressed against each other in hot mess. I draw circles on Draco's bare chest as strokes my hair. We lay in silent, half catching our breaths and half simply taking in what happened. I wonder for a moment if we were too loud and Ana and Geoff heard us, but then I realize that I don't care, all I care about is being in this moment with my love... my death eater. No! That's not what I meant, just my love. God, trust my brain to think of that at a time like this, trying to ruin it for me. There's no way of escaping it though, he is a death eater and if I am to stay with him that is something I am going to have to come to terms with.

"Stay here tonight." I say, breaking the comfortable silence.

"Are you sure they won't mind." They as in my sister and almost brother in law I'm sure he means.

"No, they'll be fine." I'm sure they will.

It goes quiet after that, but this time it's uncomfortable, I can tell that he is now thinking about the death eater thing too.
