THE THING about Draco Malfoy when it came to girls was that he'd always been too preoccupied to genuinely care enough about any. And he'd never found someone attractive enough, or intriguing, that made him want to go back for more. But suddenly freaking Joanna Kwon had to come along and mess everything up, him up, and now she was all he could focus on. Before he tried to deny it by chalking it up to the paper they had to work on. But now he realized, she invaded his every thought and broke down his highest, and thickest walls. Him, a proud pureblood, suddenly didn't care. And Draco also didn't think there was anything in his life he'd ever wanted more than her, and he gets what he wants (he always had). Since Draco always thought he had the most ideal life he couldn't complain, but now Joanna made him realize things weren't as they seemed. By god he wished to change what happened last night.
Draco stared at his phone wishing more than anything that Joanna would respond to him. Wouldn't she be up by now? Replaying in his head was everything he could remember and was told from last night. Piecing it together he knew he fucked up. Ingrained in his eyes was the look of sheer sadness and shock as he spat those cruel words at her. He could never forget the way she nodded as she sniffled trying to hold back the tears, which did eventually burst, like she was accepting and agreeing with what he had to say. Joanna had looked defeated or even betrayed- and it was all because of him.
