The Note (part2)//draco//

  I squeezed Draco's hand under the table as class ended. We were going to talk to my dad, Professor Snape, now because he had caught my new boyfriend and I passing a note.

That would have been fine, if not a little awkward, but before I had been forced to read the note to the class, my dad hadn't known that Draco and I were dating.

I led the way to my dad's office. Despite my constant urging him to redecorate, he had a very ominous room and that wasn't helping my boyfriend's nerves at all. Draco, standing slightly behind me, was as white as a sheet.

My father followed us into his office and closed the door.

"It truly is a shame. Malfoy, I was just beginning to like you."

Draco squeaked slightly in fear. I held back a giggle; I knew my father still liked Draco and if anyone was going to get in trouble now, it was me.

"Dating my daughter. And you hadn't even told me."

Draco cleared his throat uncomfortably. "P-professor, I'm sorry. We were going to tell you, I promise!"

My father arched an eyebrow. "I hope you are telling the truth, Malfoy. Because a relationship isn't meant to be a secret. It's almost as if you aren't treating her well."

Draco stepped forward, in front of me. "I would never hurt y/n."

"Good," he replied, "Because you had just gotten your grades up. You two may leave. But don't think you can keep any other secrets from me."

Draco and I walked out of the office, and I moved to take his hand, but Draco flinched away. He looked shaken, and as soon as we got out of the dungeons, I stopped him.

"Draco, I know my dad seems harsh, but he was joking. He really does like you."

My boyfriend shook his head. "No, he doesn't. Did you see the way he was glaring at me? And what he said... Maybe your dad is right, y/n. Maybe we shouldn't date."

Draco started to turn away, but I grabbed his arm. "No! I love you, Draco. I know my dad seems harsh, but he can't stop us. I won't let him hurt you. Please."

Draco bit his lip, and in his moment of pause, I leaned in and kissed him. After a moment, he began to kiss me back, and I was so relieved. When we broke apart, Draco whispered, "I love you too, y/n."
