Draco tired me out today with all the swimming so when we were in his room lounging around after supper I happened to fall asleep. I didn't notice till now when I've woken up in his room. I curl myself into the covers, and maybe Draco as well. An arm is wrapped around me, Draco pulls me closer. I fade into a half asleep state, a comfortable state. But, my comfort is interrupted when someone knocks on the bedroom door. Draco doesn't seem to notice the knock, that's if he's even awake, so I sit up and shake him.
"Draco," I whisper, making sure the person knocking doesn't hear me. What if it's Lucius? Would Draco get into trouble if it were? "Draco," I shake him again. He stirs a little before sitting up as well.
  "Good morning," he smiles at me, his voice groggy and quiet.
  I lay back down, on my back, and say, "Someone's at the door."
  Draco sighs and gets up, losing his smile and moving the covers off him and onto me more. I giggle a little causing Draco to turn and smile at me before he opens the door. "Can I help you?" I notice Draco's apparel, he's in some shorts and a tee. How does he manage to look good in everything?
  "Your aunts coming over for a few days," it's Lucius, he stops and looks at me long enough to glare. "Get her out of your room." He sounds disappointed, or maybe disgusted.
  I hear Draco scuff, "She's doing no harm." He hesitates, "And if it was any of your concern nothing happened."
  "I don't care," Lucius says through his teeth, he sounds pissed. "I don't like the thought of anyone in your room besides you."
  Draco ignore the conversation, "When does Bellatrix get here?"
  "Dinner, she'll be a little later then scheduled," Lucius gives me one last glare before walking away from the room. Just like that. Draco shuts the door and groans.
  "What time is it?" he asks. I sit up and check his clock. Before I can answer he's already talking again. "I can't believe she's coming. Out of all my family members."
  "It's 11:38," I speak once Draco stops.
  "Thanks," he says. He's sat on the edge of the bed but soon scoots beside me, starting a conversation. "How did you sleep?"
  "I slept good, thank you," I pull a blanket up around my head in comfort. "How did you sleep?"
  Draco looks to his hands and smiles, "I slept good," he pauses for a moment. "You know, you past out pretty early last night."
  I nod, "Sorry," I grow a little shy. "I guess swimming tuckered me out." Draco kisses my forehead and gets out of the bed.
  "It's alright, you're cute when you're asleep." I blush at his comment. "I'm," Draco reaches his dresser and starts to grab new clothes, "glad you were comfortable enough to fall asleep in my bed."
  I smile and hum for a second, "I'm surprised you let me stay."
  "Of course," Draco starts to take off his pants, his shirt already on and halfway buttoned. I look down at my hands. "Why wouldn't I let you?"
  "I'm not sure," I look back up to him. Draco's buttoning his pants. He smiles.
  "Still shy are we?"
  "I stayed in the room this time, didn't I?" I say. Draco nods, his smile turns more into a smirk.
  "That you did. But, you should probably get dressed and have some breakfast."
  I nod, "Yeah." I stay where I am for a moment but after a long second of silence I get up and make my way to the room my stuffs in.
