I'm a Potter (Draco Malfoy X Reader)

Chapter 49

Previously on Chapter 48

I take a seat with Draco on my right and my Brother on my left. I lean my head on Draco's shoulder. He leans his head on top of mine. I'm still a bit sleepy for waking up so early. So I just close my eyes and get some sleep. In the end, I slept along the way to Hogwarts.

-Breaking Down-

Y/N P.O.V

We still have our old room. Hermione and I still share the same room. I can't be more than happy. I'm so glad that things slowly went back to normal.

I woke up from someone waking me up. I open my eyes groggily to see Hermione, all dressed up and ready to go. She smiles at me. "Wake up... It's our first day back..." She said. I smile at her. "Okay..." I said. I get up from the bed and stretch a little.

Then I head towards the bathroom and start taking a shower, making sure every inch of my body is washed.

Soon after the shower, I head back to my room and wear my uniform. Then Hermione who has been waiting for me walk towards me. "Are you ready?" She asks. I turn to look at her and nod my head. "Yeah... ready" I said with a smile.

Then the two of us start making our way to the dining hall. It's been a while since we got here. Everything feels normal... As if the war never happened. But the pain and the loss we have proves us that the war has happened. From time to time... We can still feel the sadness and sorrow still hanging in the air. Those are the feelings from loosing the people we care about.

After a while of walking, we finally made it to the Great Hall. Harry and Ron is already there. I take a seat next to Harry as always. I turn to Ron to see him stuffing his mouth as always. I laugh at him. He looks at me with a confused expression. "Why are you laughing, Y/N?" He asks. "I'm just wondering how are you eating so much, yet you don't gain any weight" I said. He blush in embarrassment, making me giggle. But he continue to eat anyway. Well... That's Ron for you... There's nothing you can do, to stop him from eating.

Then I look across the table to the Slytherin house. I can see Draco, but his head is down. He seems upset about something. I frown, then I move from my seat and head towards him.

I take a seat next to him, then wrap my arm around his shoulder. He flinch as if he's not expecting that. Then he relax once he realise it's me. He looks down again. "Y/N..." He said. I can hear the sadness in his voice. I lift my hand and caress his hair. "What's wrong, baby?" I asks. He opens his mouth to say something. But a murmur around us makes him stop. His eyes saddened at this and he looks back down.

I try to listen to what they're saying. "Look... It's the Death-Eater... Why would they still allows him here?" "Tch... I'd rather move to Beauxbaton if that git is still here" "Wow Y/N is still as beautiful as ever.... Why would she still wants to be with him?" The more I listen to their comments. The more anger I feel boiling up inside me.

I slam my hand on the table and glare at them. They jump at my sudden outburst. "Shut up!!! All of you! You have no right to talk about him like that! You don't know a single thing about him! It wasn't his choice! Everything is forced on him! If he have the chance to choose, he will choose our side! I know he will.... And if you all think of him as a bloody traitor... Then what do you think of me, huh?!" I scream in anger at them. They look at me wide-eyed.

I take a deep breath and try to calm myself. "If y-you think o-of him as a t-traitor... W-what d-does that m-make me?" I said, my voice cracks. Tears starts to stream down my eyes. Then I look around with a hard glare. "I held half of him inside me! I'm his vessel! Yet I didn't tell anyone about it! What does that make me?! If Draco is a traitor... Then what am I?!" I scream again.

My lips starts trembling as more tears begin to stream down. "W-what we were... It wasn't our c-choice..." I cried out. "You can't blame us for something like that!! T-That m-means y-you're judging u-us without k-knowing the true story behind it... All of you are not being fair at all... But what do I expect? Life isn't fair... It never has..." I said, then I broke down crying.

My Brother instantly run towards me and pulls me into a hug. "Shh... Shh... It's alright... Come on... Let's get you out of here..." He whispered softly in my hair. Then he pulls me out. I just cry in his shoulder. Hermione, Ron is following behind pulling Draco with them. Along the way out... I can see the look of guilt in everyone's eyes.

My Brother gently make me sit down on the bench. Then he kneels down in front of me. "Hey... It's okay... Don't cry..." He said, softly. He gently wipe my tears. I just look down and continue to cry.

He gets up and Draco took his position, as he kneels in front of me. "Hey... Baby... Don't cry... I'm so happy that you stood up for me... Thank you..." He said. He stands up and take a seat next to me. I lean my head on his shoulder as he wrap an arm around mine. "I'm sorry you have to go through that..." He whispers. "It's okay... I hate it when everyone is talking trash about you..." I said. He just hugs me closer "I'm used to that... Don't worry about me... You don't have to stand up for me like that again, Y/N... It'll cause you trouble..." He said. I shake my head "I'll be fine... I don't care... I won't let them treat you like that, Draco... Never" I said.

He smiles and leans his forehead against mine. By now my Brother, Ron and Hermione have walked away... Leaving the two of us alone... So we could have time for ourselves.

"I'm so happy to have someone like you... What did I do to deserve you? I'm just an a**hole..." He said. "Shh... Don't say that... It wasn't your choice..." I said. "Bu-" I cut him off by kissing him. I wrap my arms around his neck. He wrap his around my waist.

I pull away "don't ever talk about what you use to be... It's in the past... It's time for us to move on... Okay?" I said, softly. He nods his head. I smile and kiss him again.

This time he pulls away "I love you, Y/N... So much. Thank you for loving me... I don't know what I'd do without you... You're everything to me" He said. I smile "I love you too, Draco..." I said.
