draco malfoy. your best friend. and also a shapeshifter. draco was well, he called it a cursed, you called it adorable.

he could transform himself into a white ferret and scurry through the halls of hogwarts. maybe even some days a white snowy wolf and defend you when someone harmed you. he was a very protective person, but thats was just apart of his animal nature.

one day while walking through the courtyard you spotted draco up in a tree. you walked over and raised your eyebrows at him.

"waiting for your boyfriend again draco?" you asked. he scoffed but knew you were joking. maybe...

"disgusting! like anyone would ever want to be with potter!" draco rolled his eyes and started mouthing words to himself. you couldn't hear but it was probably insults at the raven haired boy. you smirked to yourself and decided to mess with your best friend.

"well how do you know i don't want to be with him..." you said trying to keep in the humor. draco turned to you and widened his eyes before scrunching them. "you're joking right? you actually don't like him! do you?" draco said the last two words with fear. not petrified fear but more like jealous fear. you tried not to laugh.

"i mean... he's pretty hot, not going to lie.." you said. draco's eyes almost broke out of his head. "y/n! please tell me you aren't serious!" he said starting to sound desperate. "are you jealous malfoy?" you asked smirking at him. draco jumped down from the tree and stepped closer to you. you did the same. you could feel draco's breath on you. "damn right i am! you cant like him!" draco said. he must've not realized it either as he covered his mouth and widened his eyes. you smiled.

"did i say that out loud?" he asked. you nodded and laughed. he backed away and transformed into an owl flying away. sometimes he was infuriating, but now you couldn't be anymore surprised to see draco liked you.

a few hours later draco had finally showed himself in the slytherin common room, you watched him storm off into his room. you closed your book and ran after him. there he was kicking his bed like a toddler.

"what are you doing?" you asked. draco jumped when he noticed you and stopped acting like a child. he adjusted his tie and robes and sat down on his bed.

"just letting off some steam.. thats all." draco said. you laughed and rolled you're eyes. you turned around and was about to walk away before grabbing your wrist and pulling you close.

"can i show you something?" he asked, you nodded. draco began to pull you out of hogwarts and you were now inside the forbidden forest.

"draco! what the hell are we doing here! we're going to get in trouble!" you shouted at him.

he didn't respond and you were scared for a second you hurt his feelings. he turned around eyes glowing a bright green.

"draco! your eyes!" you said.

"remember when a long time ago, maybe when we were ten i was talking about my powers and how there was a level you reach?" you nodded in response and waited for him to continue.

"well, i finally got one of the highest levels for shapeshifting magic." draco said smiling. he began to get himself riled up and angry. he took a moment but looked into your eyes pleadingly before black smoke began to surround him.

next thing you know a giant white scaled dragon is standing in front of you, steam coming out of its nose.

"draco! y-you did it!" you gasped. draco had always wanted to shapeshift into a dragon since the day he'd found out it was possible.

draco, in his dragon form, roared. you laughed telling him to quiet down or you guys would be caught. he calmed down and laid down. you stood there proud and amazed.

get on y/n.

you heard a voice in your head. you looked into the green eyes and saw draco in them. this was surreal to you. you knew it was dracos voice, you could recognize it anywhere.

so you did as you were told and slowly climbed onto him.

comfortable?

you said yes and he stood up. he started flapping his wings as if he was an owl and flew up over the trees. you latched your arms around his neck and shut your eyes. after he went down a few feet scamming just above the trees you slowly opened your eyes and loosened your grip.

are you okay? should i go back down?

draco asked. you shook your head with a smile and felt the wind go through your hair. you picked your arms up and lifted them out. you started shouting and laughing. you could hear the faint laugh in your head and watched as draco went higher. you went above hogwarts and flew around the towers.

draco roared because, well, he was having fun too.

after a short fly around hogwarts and above the black lake he took you back down to the trees where you both were before. as he laid down to let you off, you slid off his wing and watched him stand up. you thought he was going to fly away which made you kinda sad but then he blew steam out of his nose and black smoke clouded around him once again. draco landed back down and fell to his knees. you ran over to him and helped him up.

"i still need to get used to it. ive never taken that form until a few weeks ago. it's kinda tiring.." draco said.

you couldn't wipe the smile off your face. draco looked at you after you didn't reply.

"what?" draco said. you leaped forward and wrapped your arms around him. you two fell.

"i'm so proud of you!" you screamed. draco blushed and smiled wrapping his arms around you in return. you pulled away from the short hug. draco stood up wiping off his robes from the leaves and dirt.

"you got my robes dirty!" draco yelled. you started laughing and he reached his hand out to help you up. you took it and dusted your robes as well.

"sorry..." you said trying to hide your laugh. draco rolled his eyes.

"we should probably get back to the common room, its almost dinner time." draco said. you nodded in agreement. draco held out his hand for you to take which took you by surprise but you couldn't be more happier.

you two started walking back, but you pulled his hand and he looked at you. he raised his eyebrow. "yes y/n?"

you reached forward and kissed his cheek. you shocked yourself and him too. you could see the blush creep across his face and laughed. you started walking forward dragging a non functioning draco malfoy behind you, who was still, latched to your hand.
