You're gleaming with excitement as you walk through Kings' Cross Station, you can't wait to get back to Hogwarts. All summer you had been counting down the days until you were going to see all your friends again. You had especially been waiting until you were going to see Draco Malfoy, your long-term boyfriend, again. You were meant to stay with him for the last bit of summer before sixth year begins, but he said something came up with his family and they weren't in the right position to hold company.
When you reach Platform 9 ¾ you barely bid your family goodbye before dashing through the barrier. You had gotten there extra early, one so your parents could say goodbye before they had to leave for work and two so you could see Draco sooner. You set your trunk and other belongings in the train and step back out onto the platform to wait for Draco.
When the distinct platinum blond hair comes into view, which can belong to none other than your boyfriend, you are not surprised to see him going at it with Potter. You just chuckle and roll your eyes, this ongoing feud was almost becoming comical. You watch the two, unable to tell if Draco lunges at Potter to taunt him or actually fight him. Though, you can tell that Potter lunged to fight before being pulled back by Weasley.
If you lay one hand on my boy Draco will be the least of you problems, Potter. You laugh at the thought of you actually causing harm to someone. Though, you never know what you'll do for Draco. You always manage to surprise yourself.
Draco brushes off his tailored, black suit before looking forward again.
He seems a little off, even from a distance. He's always been pale but at the moment he looks completely flushed; you can tell that he's stressed from the tension in his muscles and the worry lines you can see from where you're standing.
You catch his eye, him managing to stare deep into your eyes from meters away. He lets a smile take over his usual scowl when his grey eyes meet your Y/E/C ones. His smile makes your heart flutter as usual, for you know how you are one of the few people, or things, which can actually get Draco Malfoy to show a real smile. He shuffles along to you and you tilt your head, confused as to where his typical strut had gone. Draco Malfoy doesn't shuffle he struts, everyone knows that. Something must really be off.
"Hi, love," he quietly speaks, smiling down at you. He grabs you by your elbows, his normally firm grip turned feeble. He places a light kiss on your lips, you can still feel the passion but the power is nowhere near how it usually is when you've been apart for this long. "How was your summer?" His voice is so quiet and frail, what happened to him?
"I think I may need you to answer that first," you say while taking both his hands in yours. "Are you okay? You seem a little... off." You just want to get straight to the point, if something is wrong with Draco you want to know now and fix it fast.
His eyes leave yours and he gazes off to the side and his smile recedes from his face, "I may have left some things out of the letters I sent you." He sighs, "We need to talk," he looks to the ground, then back to you. "Alone."
"Okay," you nod with a sympathetic voice, you give him a small, encouraging smile.
He struggles to smile back before taking one of your hands and leading you onto the train. You tell him the compartment you had previously left your belongings in and he takes you there, relieved to see no one else is in it or its surrounding compartments. You take a seat and he turns to close the doors tightly. He stands there for a second, hands gripping the handles of the door so hard his knuckles turn white, his back faced to you, he seems to be gathering his thoughts.
In a blink of an eye he sharply turns one hundred eighty degrees and rushes to sit across from you. He sits still for a moment before he looks down at his lap and starts to rub his palms up and down his thighs. What could he be so nervous to tell you?
