After that moment, Draco promised that he wouldn't tell anyone, especially his parents about what I did. And strangely enough, I was happy when I was with him, being in the same room with him, not fighting. But when he left to get ready for dinner; I had to force myself not to cry. I love George and Draco, but George already made his decision, and that was to leave me. At least if Draco can really live with what I did, I can please everyone. I kept replaying the words I spoke to Draco, and I realized the truth. Yes, I do love George, but I'm not in love with him. I'm in love with Draco, that's never been something I doubted.
As I thought I finished cleaning myself up. Until I heard a knock on my door, "It's Draco, I just want to talk." I swallowed hard, scared he changed his mind, "come in," I spoke low as I sat on my bed, back facing the door. I listened as he slowly closed the door and sat behind me. Everything was silent for a moment. "I just needed to be sure this is what you want, I just don't want to go through this week with our families, if you are going to change your mind. What if George actually smartens up, and realized he wants you back? I know you only came to me, because he made a stupid decision, so what will you do," Draco asked in a pained voice.
I turned as looked at him, he wouldn't make eye contact. I breathed in deeply, "Draco, I didn't come to you because you were a backup plan. You know me better than that, if I didn't truly want you, I would have stayed single. What he did, yes it hurt, but I realized it didn't hurt as much as the thought of losing you. I was being suborn, I didn't want to marry you because of our parents. I wanted to marry you because you loved me back." I looked away, scared to look at him.
I felt him move closer, pulling me back, so that my back was on the bed, while he hovered over me. He looked me in the eyes, as embarrassed as I was, I couldn't look away. He brushed hair off of my face as he began to talk, "Y/n, I love you. Well, I'm in love with you. I always have been, that has nothing to do with the arranged marriage. I want you either way, if it was about the arranged marriage, I would have broken it off when I found out you broke the one rule. But I love you, I still want to be with you. I just need to know you won't change your mind. It will hurt our families more, if we go through this holiday finally as a couple and then end the engagement," he whispered the last part.
I looked up at him, "I won't change my mind, everything in me wants you, not him. It's like something has awaken in me, and now I only see you. But does that mean your parents are going to be having dinner with us tonight?" Draco laughed, "only you can change the subject that quickly. No, they are not. Unlike my parents who don't care about such things, your mum insists less people at dinner means more time she has to catch up with you. But what are you going to tell her about school?"
I sighed, "just that I finally decided to stop being stubborn, and I'm going to agree with marrying you. If I tell her the other things, she might die." He nodded in agreement. 'KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK' "IT's time for supper, your mother is home," one of the servants said.
I sat up nervous, but Draco grabbed my hand, "it'll be fine. It will be better if we tell just your mum first. My parents will find out tomorrow, when they come over for dinner." I nodded, quickly pulled him close, and smashed my lips unto his. After a few moments I pulled away, smirking a bit, "now I'm ready." Laughing as I saw Draco's face was bright red.
