Arctic Love

Chapter 22: Three Words

Draco's POV

I should have known. How could I miss it?! Of course Pansy was faking, it was to perfect, it looked so real, and Elena really did get hurt.

I pace across my room and let the thoughts run through my head. I walk over to the window and put my arm up on the wall. I take a deep breath and try to stop thinking about it.

I hear a knock at the door and turn to look at the door. I run over to the door, hoping to see Elena. I open the door to see a girl, but it's not Elena, it's Pansy.

"Is Elena here?" She asks walking in.

"No," I say grabbing her arm. "Your little act got her hurt," I say strongly

"What do you mean?" She says acting innocent.

"We all know it was a lie Pansy," I say

"Draco, why would you think that? Yesterday was so scary for me" she says pouting.

She puts her hand on my arms and I give her a confused look. I pull away from her and she walks over to my bed. She sits down and I walk over to her and stand in front of her. I cross my arms and stare at her.

"Why would you do that, Elena almost died trying to save you," I say feeling the anger come back.

"I feel off my broom Draco," she says standing up.

"No, you didn't," I say loudly

"Why are you saying these things?" She says acting sad and sitting on the bed again.

I start to feel slightly bad. What if she actually did fall? I was accusing her of something I heard.

"Pansy," I say sitting beside her. "I'm sorry for freaking out," I say

"It's okay," she says

I hear the door handle move and I look to see who's coming in. The door starts to open and Pansy grabs my face and kisses me.

I keep my eyes open and try to pull away from her but she has her arms around my neck now.

"Draco?" I hear

I pull as hard as I can and turn my head to see Elena standing there.

"Oh, hi Elena," pansy says

I see the tears form in her eyes and she runs out of the room.

"Elena, wait" I yell throwing Pansy off me.

I run after her and into the corridor. She closes the door before I can get to her and I walk over to her door and put my hands on the door.

"Elena, please listen to me" I plead

I can hear her crying through the door and my heart sinks. I feel worse than ever. I can't lose her, she's my whole world.

"Elena," I say again.

I hear the doorknob turn and I immediately step back. She opens the door and looks at me.

"Are you serious?" she says glaring at me.

"Elena, it wasn't what it looked like, pansy..."

"I don't care Draco" she snaps "just go away"

"Elena, listen to me," I say putting my hand on the door.

I panic as I feel her slipping away from me.

"Elena, she... "

"I don't care about Pansy," she says cutting me off. "I care about you. She says

"What do you mean?" I ask

"Draco, I don't care if you still love her, just don't lie to me.

I can't believe this. She thinks I love Pansy? What do I do?

Elena looks down and sighs and starts to close the door.

"Elena," I say pushing the door back open and walking in.

I grab her and kiss her. I feel her soft skin on my hands and instantly feel better.

"I love you," I say
