Dear diary. I mean journal! (A drarry fic)

Malfoys fiancé

Draco was pacing in his room with Pansy and Blaise sitting in his bed watching him

"You're gonna carve a hole in the floor dray" Blaise smiles yawning and stretching in the bed. Pansy giggled but then stopped when she saw Draco frowning at her

"Guys this needs to be seriously planned out now!" Draco whined falling into his desk chair as he tapped his foot on the floor

"And why is that?" Pansy asked as she held the newspaper in her hands cutting out he cover photo of the two boys blushing and holding hands

"We need to make it believable!" Draco hissed Blaise sat up and stared at Draco

"Then actually ask him out. You were gonna do it anyway" Blaise said Draco blushed and shook his head

"It's too complicated for that now! Astoria needs to be rid of and I can't ask him out for real now because he doesn't like me in that way! That's why he said yes to helping me in the first place! I'm his friend." Draco said his two friends gave him a sympathetic look and Pansy sighed

"Okay, you'll need to walk him to class and lunch basically everywhere. Then you'll have to have certain public displays of affection hugging kissing hand holding things like that. Finally, you'll have to go on dates once in a while to keep everyone but us out of the loop" Pansy said the two boys stared at her with a mixed look of shock and fascination she shrugged at their looks and gave a wry smile

"I've had my share of fake dating before I came out." She looked at Blaise who stuck his tongue he out in disgust

"Those kisses were not great," he said

"What!? I'm an excellent kisser!" Pansy argues

"No way you need a mint!" Blaise yelled back the two began to fight on Dracos bed and Draco whined

"Guys no I just made the bed!" But they didn't listen to him and he hunched over I'm his chair mumbling something about throwing them out and never letting them in again

"They're doing it again. It took so long to make my bed too. But what Pansy said before kinda makes sense. I guess from now on I can't think of it as fake dating. I have to act as if I'm dating him but we have a lot of boundaries? I don't know I'm so confused everything happened so suddenly for now I act as if I'm close friends with him. That's a good start." Draco thought watching the quill on his journal moved

"You guys think there's any chance I'll get over it?" Draco whispered it was mostly a question to himself but Pansy let go of Blaise who was begging for mercy

"I don't wanna be that person darling but you've kinda had this crush for years," Pansy said and Draco nodded slightly biting his lip

"Yeah dude you kinda just have to go for it" Blaise chimed in

"Pff thanks guys" Draco turned away and slammed his head into his desk

Draco walked nervously into the great hall where all head turned to him. Everyone held their copy of the newspaper whispering under their breaths. He held his composure although the inner turmoil had set in. He scowled at anyone who looked at him for too long and sat down at the Slytherin table where pansy and Blaise watched with amusement

"You're the talk of the town darling" Pansy giggled. Draco gave a small curt nod and slightly jumped as Astoria stormed in

"Draco Malfoy you cheating little ass!" Astoria yelled from across the hall. People turned to stare including the teachers who watched with amusement

"Cheating?" Draco smirked eying the girl as she stormed up to him. She had mascara smudged in her eyelid which Draco noticed and almost chortled

"Yes, cheating! I am your fiancé!" She yelled the school gasped and looked around muttering amongst themselves as if this was a Spanish telenovela

"Yes. You are my fiancé" Draco stood and everyone watched curiously as he shrugged off his robe and pulled a cigarette in between his lips lighting it. Some watched curiously at the weird mini wand Draco had lit and put in his lips and other winced at the sight of the muggle invention

"But I never proposed," Draco smirked as Astoria blinked stupidly

"My father asked you if you wanted to marry into the Malfoy name. And you said yes." Draco blew smoke out into the girl's face and watched as she coughed at the unexpected smoke

"I've never wanted you as a fiancé but if you really wanna talk about contracts I guess you can marry my father because he's the one who asked you," Draco said with a bored expression on his face, he took a long drag from the cigarette and blew it out hoping it would get rid of the butterflies in his stomach.

The hall was quiet.

Well, it was quiet.

Until Harry burst into a fit of laughter from across the hall sparking everyone else to laugh hysterically.

Astoria scowled and ran to the exit as Draco sat gracefully extinguishing his cigarette and taking a sip from his goblet. He glanced at Harry while reaching for another of his cigarettes he saw him still laughing with his friends and he smirked a bit, retracting his hand and closing his eyes.

He bit his lip softly as his heart pounded intensely and his cheeks rose in heat thinking of Harry's delight-filled face with a shot smile

"Pansy and Blaise were right. My feelings for Harry aren't going anywhere. And in a weird way, I'm okay with that."
