Twisted Fate - Draco Malfoy x fem reader

Chapter 23

Y/n's POV:

The ball music began to play, the orchestra sounded like something from a fairytale movie. Draco placed his hand around her waist tightly, making sure to never take his eyes from her E/C coloured ones as he pulled her closer. Y/n had so many butterflies within her stomach that she felt nauseous. She placed one hand on his shoulder and the other in his hand. It felt like they were the only ones in the room.

They began to dance in sinc with everyone else, but at the moment, it aaa just the two of them. His grey eyes never left her own, their faces centimetres apart when they dance. Y/n's dance swayed elegantly with each movement and at the end of the dance, Draco unexpectedly dipped her.
She squeaked in surprise, her thigh on his hip as he held her before helping her up.
The love in their hearts was outmatched with everyone else.

" I didn't know you could dance," Y/n commented, still in shock at to what just happened. He chuckled, smirking a little, his hand still around her waist, " I may have taken classes," Y/n just laughed, a small blush evident on her cheeks. Draco smiled for the first time in a long while, " I like your laugh. You should laugh more," He exclaimed, his gaze glancing down at her lips for a split second.

" I have something to show you," Draco said as he led her out of the ballroom. Y/n would usually refuse, but she trusted Draco with all her heart. He led her up to the astronomy tower and showed her the stars. Her eyes widened from how beautiful they were, like tiny diamonds scattered in the sky. Draco couldn't take his eyes off her. The stars reflecting in her unique eyes made him fall for her more from her beauty.

He felt himself moving closer to her, in which
Y/n noticed and looked up at him, but she didn't move away. He placed his cold hand against her soft, warm cheek, his eyes burning holes into hers. Y/n couldn't help but lean into the touch, her heart beating rapidly within her chest.
Draco gulped nervously,
" I hope you don't mind if I did this,"

He wrapped his arm around her waist, pulling her into his chest before placing his lips onto hers. His lips were soft and cold and Y/n instantly melted into the kiss. The kiss was full of love and passion, his grip around her waist becoming tighter. The fireworks from the Yule Ball exploded in the background. A different variety of colours inhabited the night sky, making the scene more romantic.

Eventually, they both pulled away. Y/n smiled happily, looking up at him with pure love,
" I didn't expect to fall for you, Draco Malfoy,"
Draco just chuckled, pecking her lips once more and pulling away, responding with a small grin,
" Neither did I, but I guess fate has a twisted way of doing things, huh?" He laughed a little.

" So Y/n, will you be my new girlfriend?" Draco asked and Y/n nodded happily, pulling him into a tight hug. He hugged back, the warmth in his chest never leaving. He finally found his light in the dark. Y/n was Draco's only happiness in this world, he knew that now.
Y/n pulled away,
" There's something I must do first,"

After getting Harry from the ball, Y/n walked into a silent room with him with Malfoy following behind. Harry asked, weary of Draco following with a harsh gaze, " You wanted to speak?"

Y/n inhaled deeply, trying to shaky away her nerves that were forming a deep pit within her stomach. She played with the bracelet around her wrist nervously as she began, " I think you're a great person, Harry. You're kind, caring, loving, you're everything a woman would dream off, but I don't like you back,"

Tears formed in her eyes from feeling so guilty, not wanting to break his heart. He didn't deserve that. In this situation, she couldn't help but feel like the bad guy for doing this, but what was the point of a relationship if one didn't return the feelings for the other?
" I fell for someone else, but I promise that if I did have feelings for you, I'd spend my whole life with you. I'm so sorry that it came to this, "
Y/n wiped a few tears with her hand that fell.

Harry just sent her a sad smile, placing his hand over hers and wiping her tears with the sleeve of his suit, " Don't apologise, Y/n. It's not your fault. You can't control your own feelings. Besides, I knew this long ago," He stepped back a bit, glancing at Draco who was watching in the corner, leaning against the wall with crossed arms. " I saw the way you both looked at each other, even when you didn't realise it. I knew I didn't have a chance. Besides, I think I like Ginny,"

Harry added, smiling, " As long as you're happy, Y/n, I don't care about this break up," Y/n felt as if a large weight had been lifted off her chest. She hugged Harry tightly, thanking him as he returned the hug before walking out of the room with Draco. Y/n held Draco's arm tightly, resting her head against his arm as they walked out side by side.
She knew that in that moment she had found her King.
