the prefects bathroom // drarry

stunned.

Walking up, up, up. The long staircase towards the fourth floor. Draco Malfoy's mind was running with thoughts on why he was even thinking of entering this bathroom.

BANG

"Watch where youre going diggory" Draco snapped at the completely stunned brunette who was looking at him in shook. He had just walked out of the bathroom, hoping no one would see him. But of course, he got caught. By no other than Cedric diggory. The Yule Ball was still going on and Draco Malfoy had just watched the one person he truly had feelings for, dance with one of the Patil twins and he did not like it one bit. Draco had tried, and tried, and tried to pluck up the courage to ask his so called 'enemy' to the dance. But was to afraid at the thought of Harry Potter turning him down. Which he KNEW would happen.

"Are you crying Malfoy?" Cedric asked, looking completely soft eyed as he moved closer to Draco with a worried look. "No, what are you talking about- i'm just- tired." Draco sobbed wiping away the tears quickly, and moving back a few steps. "Hmm, your eyes a red, and your cheeks are tear stained.. are you sure?" Cedric stated, crossing his arms and turning his head to the side a little. Yes. Draco was crying, but no one needed to know that, he didn't want pity. He despised of pity. And he DEFINITELY didn't want it from a bloody hufflepuff. 

"Yes! I'm sure, now will you fuck off and leave me be!" Draco yelled and turned around to storm out of the bathroom. But was stopped by Cedric's hand resting on his shoulder. 

"Look, if you ever need a break. Go the the prefects bathroom on the fourth floor. The password is 'pine-fresh' - no one knows about it really, so you should be safe to have a soak in peace." Cedric winked and then turned into the bathroom once more and Draco watched him until he was out of sight. 

flash back end

Draco shook his head. Why was he here? Maybe Diggory had just set him up, or maybe he was genuinely shocked to see a Malfoy crying. 

Draco inhaled a big breath and then exhaled, as he reached the door.

"Pine-fresh" He whispered, he heard the door click and open to reveal a large bathroom with a HUGE bath. Bubbles covered the surface which made it difficult to see the water. Draco smirked and then moved towards the far end of the bath. He kicked off his shoes and removed his clothing, until he was completely naked. No one would come in, so he didn't really care that he was naked. 

He dipped his feet into the hot water and closed his eyes as he moved to sit on the stoned step under the water, the bubbles covering his lower reigns and the water coming up to just under his nipples. 

It was so warm. Draco felt like for once, his thoughts about Harry Potter had just disappeared away from his mind. He opened his eyes and leaned his back against the edge of the bath and rested his hands next to his sides. He felt so relaxed, and peaceful. 

Until, he heard the door open.

He shot his head up to reveal a completely shocked, wide-eyed Harry Potter standing in the door way with the golden egg wrapped in his arms. Staring directly at Draco.
