We Belong Together || Draco Malfoy X Reader

Draco POV

Y/N had left the hospital wing. I looked at my broken arm. Actually, it didn't hurt that much but I liked to see how worried she was when I acted like I was dying. She did care about me.

Lying in a hospital bed was boring. I had Madam Pomfrey to call Crabbe and Goyle to come to the hospital wing. I told them to send a letter regarding this incident to my father, he should hear about my broken arm by this evening.

I wasn't going to let this go so easily.

I was waiting for Y/N to come in the great hall when Crabbe and Goyle had sat across me. Honestly, why didn't they accompany her to go to the hall?

The dinner was about to start when someone finally came to sit beside me. What took her so long?

"Does it hurt terribly Draco?" She asked, touching my broken arm. I turned my head to see her as soon as I heard the voice wasn't Y/N's.

"What are you doing here?" I hissed.

I saved that place for Y/N to sit next to me, not some ugly looking girl like Parkinson.

"Really Pansy? You're bothering someone with a broken arm now?" Someone said from behind.

"And you're on my spot," Y/N declared clearly annoyed.

"I don't see your name here," Parkinson debated.

"Move before I make you bald with my bare hands," she threatened.

Parkinson quickly moved away and Y/N took the seat. She glared at her before turning her gaze to me in excitement.

"Look at what I brought for you," she gushed.

"These are some limited edition sweets that I told you before. My aunt sent this from California," she said handing me a pouch full of sweets.

Actually, I liked sweets but I was too embarrassed to admit it to anyone. I guess she knew about this and I was glad she didn't make fun of me for it.

I looked at Crabbe and Goyle, they gulped at the sight of the sweets pouch. I laughed at their expression.

"None of you can have a taste of this, she gave it to me, only me," I declared.

"Don't be such a baby and share it with them," she rolled her eyes.

"No, what you give to me is exclusive, only for me."

I saw a light tint of pink formed on her cheeks. This was new. I stared at her, not believing what just happened.

"I know I'm such a beauty but are you gonna keep staring?" She asked, still with the blush. I couldn't believe my eyes. Why did she have to be this cute?

We were sitting on our common room's couch. Crabbe and Goyle were busy with their late-night snacks. How much more would they want to eat?

Y/N was sitting peacefully, reading a muggle book that she borrowed from Granger. At first, I thought she was going to be a bad influence on her, but nothing bad happened yet. She was just fascinated by everything muggles had that we didn't.

"I see you're back being friends with Granger," I started.

She looked up at me with a smile. A warm one.

"Of course, I'm always friends with her. It's just sometimes we have this misunderstanding. Just like you and me," she explained.

"I see, but you still can't trust her."
