We Belong Together || Draco Malfoy X Reader

34| First Date

Draco POV

Things started to change for good since the Yule Ball. Y/N was my girlfriend now and life had never been better than ever. Even though she was still a little shy, she seemed to come to her normal sense slowly. Which was good, shy Y/N was cute but I wanted my Y/N Y/N.

News travelled faster than the speed of light here. People sure loved gossiping. Everyone had known about our relationship. Some people even called us the overpower couple cause I was a Malfoy and she was a Richards. Not that I was complaining about it, but my adorable girlfriend was pretty upset. It turned out someone saw me kissing her on the dance floor that night and made a big fuss about it. The culprit was still unknown. None of the teachers said anything about it though. Probably because they were scared to lose their job.

I didn't know what happened in the girls' dormitory but things had changed. As far as I knew, Y/N didn't want to be friends with any of the Slytherin girls and now all those girls, including Parkinson, were acting as if they were friends with her.

Speaking of friends, Y/N's Gryffindor friends weren't being very supportive of our relationship. Granger seemed to be okay with it even though she still glared at me from times to times which made me want to snatch those eyes of hers each time. Weasley had been ignoring her since the last time I met him at the Yule Ball. And don't get me to start at Scarhead, he was definitely jealous of my relationship with Y/N. I didn't understand the way his brain worked, Y/N was obviously out of his reach yet he still kept that feeling for her.

It was New Year's eve and today was going to be our first official date. We didn't have many options for our date destination, the most proper place was Hogsmeade. I wondered what would change as we were going there as a couple now.

"I know you like my scarf," I mumbled while putting my scarf on her.

"That's because it's yours," she replied shyly, smiling so lovely at me.

"Off we go then," I said, offering my hand for her to take.

We passed by some random people and they gave us a strange look. I felt like I wanted to pluck out their eyes right away. Having random people staring at you was really bothersome.

We arrived at Hogsmeade and it was already afternoon. I thought about having afternoon tea first because she loved tea and the time fitted. Or maybe we should just stroll around first?

"Let's go to Madam Puddifoot, Draco," she suggested. Tea then.

We went inside and found Diggory with his girlfriend sitting on our usual spot by the window.

"Looks like we're a bit late," Y/N blurted.

"Do you want to sit there?" I asked.

"And let you being rude to that couple? Absolutely not, Draco. Let's just go to the pub. Hermione said they have something called butterbeer and people say it tastes good," she suggested and pulled me away shortly.

"Which pub are we going to exactly?" I asked.

"The Three Broomsticks. We've never been there before," she smiled.

Well, actually I had. Not to be mentioned, Y/N and I had a record of giving each other a silence treatment thorough all the school years. Last year, I went to the Three Broomsticks with Crabbe and Goyle while Y/N was avoiding me. She would hate the place. Y/N hated dark and gloomy places, which unfortunately also means she hated my manor. And this pub fitted all those criteria. I didn't want that to ruin our first official date.

Forget about that, we had stepped into the pub. I was too busy with my thoughts that I failed to stop and bring her back to Madam Puddifoot while we were already walking to the pub.
