Slytherins Heir [Draco X Reader] - Year Three

Chapter fourteen - Rainy Night

Y/n pov

You walked out of Class ignoring Harry pestering you until he cut you off.

"You have to tell me why you're afraid of Tom." Harry insists. You growl and grab him wrist.

"Fine, come here." You say pulling him into an empty hallway.

"I see it in my nightmares it was there every night in Azkaban me and Tom Riddle shaking hands. In Azkaban my nightmares were pushed against me. I watched myself kill everyone I care about... I can't dare to think about if Tom was right... What if I turn out just like him?" You reveal.

"But you're different." Harry reminds you.

"How? You chose Gryffindor, I choose Slytherin, I'm the Heir, I already am following his footsteps." You tell him.

"You haven't practiced any of the dark arts." Harry states. You remember he doesn't know... best if it stays that way.

"..." You stay silent.

"Y/n...?" He asks growing suspicious.

"I just want you to understand Azkaban changes people Harry. I haven't seen my family in what feels like forever and I won't get to until Christmas break." You tell him he softens up he doesn't have a happy home life but he understood why you felt so alone.

"Y/n... I didn't know..." He says hugging you lightly.

"Why would you! Azkaban is a living hell; I was sat with Sirius Black for a month!" You cry into his shoulder.

"I lost a friend today Harry... I told you I was evil." You say attempting not to cry anymore but failing.

"Oh... Y/n..." He whispers.

You were crying into Harry's chest so much you didn't notice that Harry hugged you into his chest and you cried your heart out. You were both so distracted you didn't notice Draco and Snape round a corner.

"What's going on here?" The potions master asked.

"Nothing Professor." Harry said his arm still around you.

"Nothing Severu- I mean, Snape." You corrected quickly wiping you eyes with your arm.

"Y/n... You're crying?" Draco says getting rid of his snarling face.

"What do you want Draco?" You ask lowly.

"I know you honestly can't think about anyone but yourself but I came to look for you." You bit your tongue and felt Harry's hand on your wrist to stop you from lashing out at Malfoy.

"You know what Draco, I've done so much for so many people." You hissed.

"and yet it's as if you're trying to get expelled some times." Draco says. You glare at him and Snape.

"Maybe I should be expelled." You said sternly.

"Why are you acting so weird?" Draco asked. You turned to walk away and he grabbed your forearm to which you pushed your wand and pushed it to his neck.

"Don't you dare-" You warned the blonde. He whimpered and Your potions master was shocked the only sane was one Harry.

"Y/n, you're safe." Harry Promised you putting his hand on your arm and slowly taking it down from Draco's neck.

"... What am I doing...?" You asked looking at Harry dropping your wand. "Sorry." You said trotting off in the opposite direction leaving your wand on the ground.

You ran off into the pour of rain outside, it was humid yet ever so rainy. You sat near the water looking off in the distance you felt your robes getting pelted with rain and you knew you were soaked and sat in mud but you didn't care. You felt tears well up and you continue to cry.
