The grass crunches, like someone's running up behind me. I whip my head around to the noise and Draco sits down next to me looking over the lake.

I turn my head back, my arms still hugging my knees as i look over the lake. I would ask how he found me but he knows all my next moves. Always has. "I was just with Ed-

"I really don't wanna talk about him" i sigh as i look to Draco, a look of disbelief on his face. "I was just gonna say...never thought I'd punch one of my friends." He shrugs. My mouth hands open as he looks back at me smirking. "You did not." I shake my head lightly. "He deserved it. Sometime i swear that guy is the most clueless person I've met." He spits out, scoffing as he looks over the lake.

I sigh, resting my head on his shoulder as i look over the glistening water in the dark. "I just don't want to be mad anymore." I close my eyes for a second, feeling Draco's hand stroking my hair, his head leaning on mine.  "I know..."

It was silent after that. But not the silence we've had lately. The normal silence that we've always been comfortable with. That we could sit in for hours. And it feels so nice to be like that with him again. Knowing i can be so comfortable around him

After what felt like a second, but wasn't. I let out a quiet yawn and Draco looks down at me. "Come on. We're way past curfew and you've had a long day." He starts to stand up and i follow. His arm goes round my shoulder as he begins to walk back up to the castle.

"It so wasn't like that!" I joke with Draco walking through the empty halls. "No i specifically remember. In the second year, we were joking around, you fell off your broom and got a massive cut right...there" he points towards my shoulder. I look him in the eyes, grinning that someone would know me in that much details.  "I loved when we'd mess around on our brooms..." i look towards the ground as we walk. "Then let's do it this weekend" he shrugs and i smile up at him, opening my mouth to speak but instead being interrupted by a sharp voice.

Draco's whips his head round to see none other than Filch running up to use. "Fuck" Draco, reacting as quickly as he can to grab my hand and sprint down the hall. We're in a fit of laughs as Filch chases us around the halls, not being able to catch us as we eventually end up outside Slytherin, completely out of breath as we smile at each other.

As our breathing calms down i look to the floor. "Draco...am i that much of a whore? That even Ed thinks is am?" I question looking up to Draco's sad eyes. "You've never been a whore through my eyes." He reassures grabbing one of my arms to pull me in, embracing me in a big hug.

And that is why i will always be best friends with Draco Malfoy. Because he has always been there, to speak or to be when i have needed someone the most. And i could never repay him for that.

...

I walk into the hall with pansy having a completely different mindset towards Ed. Ignore. I sit down across from Draco, who is next to Ed and the table goes silent. Draco clears his throat as he grabs a croissant. I reach for a coffee and starting a conversation. "What class does everyone have?" I look between Draco and Pansy as they look at me in surprise.

"Transfiguration. But I'm thinking skip" Draco shrugs biting into his croissant. "Ooo good idea-

"Where's Blaise?" Pansy plays along with my plan as she asks Draco. He chews, giving Ed a side eye as he look back. "He got back late last night. Think he's still hungover" Ed states confidently, in an annoyed tone. Pansy's head snaps to Ed who raises an eyebrow. "What?" She mutters, her face dropping. "Sorry were you talking to me?" He questions smartly. "Thought that wasn't allowed." He scoffs as Pansy storms off, probably to find Blaise. "We assumed you were all talked out after your chats with Nott" i snap back, standing up as i mumble under my breath "dick" i scoff walking off.

i make eye contact with Nott, obviously catching his attention when i spoke to Ed. He stands up and starts to follow me. Great.

I rush down the halls, making it to the common room without being caught up by Nott. I didn't think he was the running type. I sit on the sofa with a huff as i hear the door open. "Talking about me diamond?" Nott smirks as he walks over to me. "In your dreams" i scoffs, standing up to leave. Not wanting to be around his big ego. His hand grabs onto my arm, stopping me from passing. "Trust me you dont wanna see my dreams." He mutters looking me up and down. Heat rushes through my body as he does and he smirks as he finally looks back at my reaction.

"I um- have to go to class" i stumble with words as i go past him, wanting to break the intense gaze. Soon i feel his presence next to mine and mentally sigh. "Same." He smirks at me as i keep walking. There's a weird silence in the air, the halls are silent, because everyone is still at breakfast.

"You know there's gonna be a ball?" Nott turns his head to me and i raise my eyebrows."a ball? How do you know that?" I scoff thinking of the schools attempt at a formal dance. "I have my ways" he grins at me as we walk along. I look away, wanting to gag at his confidence. "Sounds boring. Just let us have an actually party." I shake my head looking to the floor. "Yeah. Just stupid couples dancing" he scoffs. "Not bringing a random girl then?" I raise my eyebrows, looking over to him to see his gaze already on me. Mainly on my chest until he sees me looking at him. I roll my eyes when i don't get a response until he looks up, breaking his smirk for just a second before putting it back on. "Don't wanna commit to a girl that much. They might start expecting things from me" he grins at me, as if it's a joke. I glare at him until he rolls your eyes. "Like you're not the same" he scoffs and i stop in my place. "Excuse me?" He stops walking and faces me with an annoyed look. "You haven't been in one relationship yet you've slept with literally every guy in the school. Don't act like I'm a baby guy for doing the same thing." He looks you dead in the eyes, a tense feeling handing in the air. I step closer to him, our bodies centimetres away. "That's where your wrong Nott" i look him down "i haven't slept with you. Yet..." i whisper into his ear before turning around and walking off, leaving him speechless.
