Draco's POV

"What do you want, father?" I asked, gritting my teeth in anger. "Draco! It's important news! And glad one as well!" My father exclaimed. "What?" I asked, not like I cared.

"The dark lord. He's back", he said.

I gasped and my heartbeat instantly picked up. "What?!" I asked, shocked. "Yes...yes! He's planning to attack very very soon! Just keep safe and stay away from the Triwizard tournament, alright? We shall rise, Draco. You'll be able to be a Death eater once and for all. But please Draco, get your brain cells back and leave that muggle! It ruins our reputation and if the dark lord tries to go after us for your stupid deed? Get your act together! Come back home now so we can speak face to face...this phone thing is odd" He said before turning the phone off. I face-palmed before rushing to my room and locked the door, stunned at the news and was just confused.

Krystal's POV

As I saw him listening to what his ass father was saying to him, he looked more upset by the second. He even looked so surprised at something. I so badly wanted to know what they were talking about. Draco's eyes welled up with tears when he put my phone on the table and ran to his room. I caught him and shouted his name in confusion.

I felt so bad for him. He looked so overwhelmed over that phone call. He looked frightened, and was tearing up. What was wrong? My heart was racing, my mind was confused and I didn't know what to do.

I was infront of his room, softly knocking the door. "Draco? Are you ok? Please answer me", I said. Nothing.

"Draco! You should tell me what's wrong instead of locking yourself up! What if I'm able to help? At least reply to me, Draco! I don't like being treated this way", I said in agony. I sighed.

"You w-won't understand, Krystal", he said, so quietly it's barely audible. "Just make sure you don't stay in there for too long", I said after deciding to finally give him some space.

I went back to my room. I felt so guilty and uneasy. Mostly worried and anxious. Why did he suddenly act like that? What did his sick father told him? I had never been more curious in my life. It wasn't good, that's for sure. I swore I was getting a headache from all the theories I made up in my head. I just covered my face on my knees and sat on my bed, thinking it all through. How can I help? He said I wouldn't understand. What did he mean by that? Is it something personal I'm not allowed to know? I mean, I don't want to invade his personal life or act like a creep, that's him.

Before I knew it I had fallen asleep.

TIME SKIP

I opened my eyes, it was morning. I stretched and saw a letter beside me. "Hm?" I wondered. I opened it. Another letter from Draco.

Dear Krystal,
It's unfortunate but I have to leave. I'm heading back home very early this morning, before you wake up. I have to go home because of some hard person family stuff I need to assist. I'll send you an owl, sorry my appearance for Easter was barely. Please understand. I'm sorry.
- Draco

I couldn't help but feel quite heartbroken as I read through it, I didn't even realize I was crying. It was because of that damn phone call, I was sure. I face palmed and then got ready for the day. Luna was coming over with her dad.

I headed down for breakfast. "Where's that Draco boy?" My mom asked. "He left. Got some personal family issues to take care of", I explained. She just nodded. "That was too bad. He won't be able to taste more of my cooking", my mom said, trying to lighten the sappy mood I brought. I just shrugged and began eating.

"Luna's coming", I said. "I know. When will they arrive?" She asked. "I don't know. Maybe the afternoon?" I asked. "Ok, I'll clean the house up", she smiled. "Just relax honey, it's not like you'll never meet Draco again", my mom said. I nodded.

TIME SKIP

Luna was in my bedroom with me while my mom talked with her father downstairs. "Want some scones, Luna?" I asked. "Yes, please", she said as she took one.

"I can sense your sadness, Krystal. Are you really that upset that he left?" Luna asked. "I know. It doesn't sound anything like me. But just- I had these plans and they completely got blown up because he just left. Ugh!" I groaned as I lied on my bed.

"You'll see him again in a short while, when school starts. And he did say that he's gonna send you an owl. So cheer up", Luna said reassuringly. And then I just spent the rest of the day with her.

Draco's POV

My heart felt heavy as I put the letter beside her. I left the door with my things and headed to my Malfoy mansion.

My parents were waiting for me along with other death eaters. Voldemort, thankfully, wasn't there though. "Ahh! Your son!" Bellatrix cackled. "Yes", my mother said.

"You'll be marked very soon Draco. Right before the dark lord makes his attack on Harry Potter and some others", my dad explained. I hated Harry with all my guts, but my stomach couldn't help but feel twisted. "Oh and one more thing! You must not talk or be friends with that Ravenclaw. In any means necessary. If so, you'll get a severe punishment from me or even worse the dark lord himself. You get it, Draco? Don't be an embarrassment. Treat her like how you used to, the treatment she deserved. The stupid mudblood she was", my dad briefly said. It was a threat. Either I control my actions or I die or be severely injured. I gulped as I nodded. I had no other choice. "Go to your room and unpack. Can't believe you went to that mudblood's house", he said, disgusted. My mom gave me a sad look before I left to my room.

I just sat on my bed, raging. I couldn't act so cold to Krystal anymore now. I just can't. But I have to. It was matter of life and death, no options. "So he's gonna attack during the Triwizard tournament", I recounted. I couldn't manage the stress I was feeling. But what was I supposed to do? I couldn't do anything. There are powerful death eaters in my house for god sake.

I wanted to send an owl to Krystal but my annoying father would find out and then start telling me off. And at the end, the owl won't be sent. It was pointless. I was basically in a prison full of death eaters. I just lied in my bed, smiling to myself as I pictured Krystal in my head. She was happy.

But she won't be for any longer when Voldemort finishes her bestfriend/crush. I clenched my jaw. Did she still have a crush on Harry? Made me even more angry but shrugged it off. It wasn't important. I was strictly told to not care about her and treat her like shit. I couldn't fight back to that order...

A/N : Sorry this chapter was short and boring nothing really happened. The next ones will be more interesting
