5th Year

"Guys I'll be right back." You said to the trio. You were on your way to Hogwarts, and you finally felt at ease.

You looked in the windows of the compartments, looking for Draco and his friends.

Finally you saw his light blonde hair, and opened the door.

"Draco did you get my letters?" You ask quickly. Then the situation sinks in.

He was kissing Pansy Parkinson! He quickly pulls away to look at you when he hears your voice, but he doesn't look guilty.

"Yeah, I got them." He said indifferently.

"O-oh... Um... Can I talk to you? Alone?"  You ask, seeing Pansy smirk.

Draco groans and follows you into he hall. You pull him into an empty compartment.

"I don't want to snog you." Draco sneers. You glare at him.

"Why didn't you write me? Why were you kissing Pansy?" You ask, your eyes swimming with tears. You could swear that you saw Draco give you a guilty look, but it reverted back to his arrogant smirk before you could be sure.

"Who cares who I kiss?" He asks. You frown.

"I-I thought we..." You trailed off, not meeting his eyes.

"Oh right," he laughs, "I never told you. That was all a dare. Blaise thinks he's funny."

"B-but I told you everything about me! You were so kind!" You say, the tears finally falling.

"That was all acting. I'm pretty good, aren't I?" He laughs. You suck in a breath.

"Yeah. Pretty great." You say sarcastically. Then you shove him away and walk out of the compartment.

You wait until Draco goes back to Pansy, then you reclaim the empty compartment, and curl into a ball in the corner.

You felt so betrayed, but you didn't cry for too long. You had cried too much the past few months.

Soon you heard the door open, and you looked up to see Ron and Hermione.

"(Y/n)? What happened?" Ron asked, as Hermione rushed to your side.

"Draco. You were right Ron." You laugh bitterly. Ron sighs and sits down.

"I'm so sorry." He says, placing an arm around you.

"He was snogging Pansy, and when I confronted him, he said it was all a dare." You explain. They both growl angrily.

"I'll kill him." Ron says. You laugh.

"Thanks guys. Where's Harry?" You ask.

"He was going to come find you, but I thought you might be looking for Malfoy, so I convinced him to wait for you." Hermione says. You nod.

"Well I guess I can tell him I'm willing to start over." You sigh. They nod and follow you back to Harry.

"Oh good, (y/n), I was starting to worry." Harry says. You sit down next to him. Hermione and Ron had went somewhere to leave you alone with him.

"I think I'm going to give us another shot." You smile. Harry's smile was so big, it warmed your heart. He hasn't smiled like that since third year.

"Yes!" Harry says, and pulls you into a tight hug. You giggle.

"You're crushing me." You tease. He just tightens his grip.

"Don't care. You're mine now." Harry says. You roll your eyes playfully, and he finally lets go.
