My Brother's Enemy (Draco Malfoy x Reader)

Hogwarts

(Y/N) Pov

The train ride to the castle was quiet but pleasant, the two boys on the opposite seat were just eating some treats they got from the trolley lady. Despite being a quiet ride Draco and I talked the whole way through it.

Only after a long time did I remember that I needed to change so I got off my seat and took a bag with my uniform to change into.

(Y/N): I'm going to get dressed, and I'll be right back, you guys should change as well.

I gave them a smile before going to the changing rooms, I meet some of the other girls who shared my excitement but no one managed to catch my attention and interest like Draco did, talking to him was easy, as I got back to my compartment, our conversation continued like it never stopped, like I never left.

But we didn't get to talk for much longer because the train came to a stop, I got up and went to grab my things but a hand stopped me, I looked at the person seeing Draco standing with a smile as he grabbed my things and his.

When we got off the train we had to leave our things with someone who worked at Hogwarts because we couldn't take them with us on the boats, the lake was beautiful, but I was nervous since I had never been on a boat before.

I think Draco noticed that and grabbed my hand to calm me down, even though we haven't known each other for long he knew how I was feeling and was trying to help, it was the first time someone understood me like that, I looked at him but he was looking straight ahead with a light pink dusting his cheeks, he was embarrassed but he still didn't let go of my hand knowing it was helping me.

I didn't say anything and just enjoyed the feeling of safety that his hand brought me this night.

When we got to the school gates, we were led inside and only stopped after going up a long flight of stairs, in front of us was a woman with a pointed hat, and a strict but kind face.

Woman: Welcome to Hogwarts, I'm Professor McGonagall and I'll be teaching Transfiguration, tonight you'll be sorted into your houses. There are four houses Gryffindor, Slytherin, Ravenclaw, and Hufflepuff if you follow me we'll be joining your colleagues in the Great Hall but before that, you'll have to be sorted into your respective houses.

Her face remained stoic as she looked at all of us.

Professor McGonagall: If you could wait here for a few moments, I'm going to see if everything is ready for you.

After that, she was gone through the large double doors and I felt Draco drop my hand and walk towards my brother and his ginger friend so I went with him in case anything happened between them.

Draco: So what they say it's true, Harry Potter has come to Hogwarts along with his sister (Y/N) Potter.

He paused, grabbed my hand, and kissed the top of it.

Draco: My name is Draco, Draco Malfoy.

The redhead kid snickered at him and I knew that Draco was going to say something, I mean the kid was mocking him right in his face, and after talking to him on the train I learned that he needed to keep up appearances and the one his family had was that of a rich pure-blood supremacist, that didn't get along with anyone related to muggles or muggle born witches, so this definitely wasn't going to be peaceful.

Draco: Think my name is funny do you, I don't even need to ask yours, red hair and hand me down robe, you must be a Weasley.

And there it was, I saw the red-headed boy look down, shame was displayed across his face and that little gesture confirmed Draco's statement.

Draco: You'll soon find out that some Wizarding families are better than others, you don't want to make friends with the wrong sort but I can help you with that.

Draco had a smirk on his face and extended his hand but seeing the face my brother made I knew that he was going to turn down Draco's offer and expected me to do the same but he didn't know Draco nor did he want to unlike me.

I knew that Draco said what he said not because he really thought that but because it was what he should say, I also knew that he wouldn't treat me like that because, in the few hours that I've been with him, he has treated me with kindness, of course, he did it discretely because of Crabbe and Goyle, even though they were too busy eating candy, but still he treated me with a type of kindness that Harry never did.

Harry: I think I can figure out who the wrong sort is.

Suddenly they both turned to me.

Draco: What about you, (Y/N)?

Draco extended his hand to me too and I took it unlike my brother who at that moment looked furious with me and I couldn't help but worry, I mean he was already treating me badly before so I can't imagine what he will do now, but all my worries disappeared as Draco's lips touched my hand and once again that feeling of safety overtook me.

I felt someone touch my shoulder so I looked behind me and it was Professor McGonagall trying to get our attention so Draco grabbed my hand and led me far away from Harry.

Draco: Don't worry about your brother. I'll always be there for you unlike him so just trust me okay?

His voice was barely a whisper and I nodded as Professor McGonagall explained some things that we didn't care about but the other students started walking so we just followed because it probably meant that we were going to be sorted into our houses.

As I walked through the doors I couldn't help but feel nervous and excited at the same time, and I couldn't help but wonder what if Draco and I don't get sorted into the same house, I shook my head to try and get rid of that thought.

When we were walking towards the middle of the room the other students were singing what seemed like a welcome song, the ceiling was enchanted to have floating candles.

As I admired the room Professor McGonagall started to call out names for the sorting, apparently she puts this hat in our heads and he evaluates our personality and decides which house we fit in better.

Professor McGonagall: Draco Malfoy.

Draco let go of my hand, which I didn't realize he was still holding, and walked towards the stool, the hat didn't even get to touch his head.

Sorting Hat: Slytherin!

The Slytherin table clapped and I heard the ginger-haired boy say something to my brother, something that made me clench my fist and roll my eyes.

Ginger-haired boy: There isn't one witch or wizard that was in Slytherin that didn't go evil.

I was annoyed but didn't want to cause trouble so I just waited for my name to be called, next on the stool was my brother's friend, and he was sorted into Gryffindor.

Professor McGonagall: Harry Potter.

After she called his name the Great Hall was silent but the second after people started whispering, wondering which house he would be sorted into.

The hat seemed to say something to him but I couldn't hear it but I saw him muttering something to himself.

Sorting Hat: Gryffindor!

He showed this radiant fake smile when he walked to the Gryffindor table.

Professor McGonagall: (Y/N) Potter.

I heard my name being called and my mind went blank but as I was reaching the steps towards the stool a shout stopped me.

Sorting Hat: SLYTHERIN, SLYTHERIN!

I immediately looked at Draco and there he was waiting for me with this discreet smile that showed that he was happy that we were in the same house, I was so happy that I didn't mind the whispers around me, I just smiled brightly at him, knowing that things might change but that I'll be okay.
