   I meet him in the hall. I was coming back from the library late again tonight when I found him leaving his common room.   "Draco, where are you going? It's 12:30am."
  "Please not right now," he turns and faces me.
  "I know you asked for a week but-," I hesitate but stop.
  "Just a few more days."
  "That's what you keep saying," I laughs in anger.
Draco moves till he's a few feet away from me. "And that's all I need. After tonight it'll be done I just want to make sure you're safe." He start to walk away from me, I won't let him go easy this time.
  "So you're just gonna go?"
  "(Y/N)," he tries to stop me.
  "No, stop avoiding me!" I yell at him, he stops. "You never talk to me anymore. Draco," I revert to a soft tone, "I don't care what you do for a living. I don't care if you work for-." Draco turns around and gives me a stricked look that shuts me up.
  "People have their weaknesses, and I can't have you as mine," he's angry. "If I lose you-!"
  "You're trying to by avoiding me," I butt in. Draco huffs out his nose.
  "If I loose you anymore then I already have I don't know what I will do."
  "Everyone has their vulnerabilities," I say. "Even me." Draco makes his way to me, barley two feet away.
"I can't."
"You can, you can!" I argue. Draco cups my face and shakes his head. "Yes," I say softly.
"No, no, I can't lose you."
"You're going to be vulnerable with or without me. You can lose it all and still be vulnerable."
"How?"
"L-like-," I stutter for an answer. "Like 'The Dark Lord' and his Horcruxs." I bring up my original topic, " like I said, I don't care if you work for Vold-"
"Do NOT say his name," he whisper-spits at me, pushing me closer towards the wall. "If you," he breaths out, "care or not is up to you but I care way to much about you to see you hurt. Now you can leave me alone or you can be pushed away."
"You're not pushing me away," I say sternly.
  Draco removes just hands from me. "I-I just need tonight."
  "Fine," I grit my teeth, "but if you even try to tell me you need more time I will end this." Draco nods and walks away. I watch as he goes my eyes slightly stinging. He looks so good but I hate watching him walk away. Especially after a fight.
