Potters Girl (Draco Malfoy x reader)

Year Three, Chapter Seventeen

This is the last chapter of year three!! Stuff starts going down soon, tons of Draco in fifth year which is coming up. Since y'all have to read through fourth year for context, I figured I'd give you the option to have a sneak peak of year five. Please comment and let me know if you'd like a tiny paragraph from fifth year!!! Thanks darlings💕

*Dracos POV*

I wake up and stretch, getting dressed and walking down to breakfast. Pansy jumps into my arms in the common room, clinging to me. Ugh. We walk down to the breakfast hall with Blaise, Crabbe, and Goyle.

I see two figures missing from the Gryffindor table. Y/n and Weasel-bee. Their friends are grabbing plates of food and walking out. What happened to y/n?

Worry floods my senses but I shake my head. I shouldn't care about her. I can't.

My day passes boringly. I notice y/n missing from all our classes. I get more and more worried while bashing myself for it.

I sit in the common room by myself, looking at the flickering flames. I sigh. Better to just get it over with and know.

Stepping out of the common room, I straighten my robes and walk towards the hospital wing.

Rounding the corner, I open the door gently.

"Visiting hours are over, Mr. Malfoy." Madam Pomfrey gently says. I sigh. "Come back tomorrow during the day, please."

"Please, Madam Pomfrey. I can't come during the day..." I plead. I feel so.. vulnerable. Ugh.

"I'll make an exception for you. Just don't bother the patients or me." I nod.

I spot her, deeply asleep on a cot. Her arm wrapped up and hung.

"What happened to her?" I ask.

"There was an accident with her and her golden group, she suffered an attack from a- I cannot say. But she broke her arm." Madam Pomfrey explains. I nod.

She looks.. peaceful. Her hair falling gracefully around her face, she's cuddled up in the blankets as best she can given her arm.

Pulling a chair to the side of her bed, I sit down and grab her hand gently, she stirs slightly in her sleep and snuggles into my hand.

I can't help but smile. I shouldn't feel this way. I can't help it though. She's just... I don't know.

I study her features. The next thing I know, Im awoken by a ray of light. shit. I fell asleep.

I hurriedly walk out it of the hospital wing, being sure to not be seen. This starts my new nightly routine, until one morning, the last week of school, I see her walk into breakfast. Relief floods me, she's okay now. I let out a breath I didn't know I was holding and felt my shoulders relax. She's okay. She's okay.

*Readers POV*
By the time I heal and Madam Pomfrey allows me to leave, it's the last week before school ends. This year was.. eventful. As usual. The week rushes by, and I'm not looking forward to the Dursley's.

"Hey y/n!" Fred startles me. I jump and turn around and swat his shoulder. He laughs.

"How you feelin darling?" George says on my other side, startling me again. I turn and punch him in the arm lightly and the twins laugh at me.

"I'm feeling much better now, but I know what'll make me feel even better!!" I say smiling.

"What?" They say in unison.

"A hug from each of you!!" They smile and oblige, each twin hugging me tightly. Fred put his chin atop my head, and George rubbed my back.

"We know what'll make you feel even better!" Fred starts.

"Mums invited you and Harry to spend the summer with us!" George finishes.

"Really???" I exclaim. They both nod and I throw my arms around George's neck in a hug, then turning to Fred and doing the same. "Thank you guys! I hope we aren't intruding."

"Not at all!"

"You're more than welcome" The twins bounce off of eachother.

The final week passes by quickly, exams being over and all. We board the train and start talking. Apparently Lupin quit, sadly. Sirius is somewhere unknown, and Peter escaped. Harry explained how he turned back time to me privately, in between make out sessions that night, seeing as we had snuck out with the invisibility cloak.

The ride goes somewhat fast. As I walk out of the train, a hand bumps mine on the rail. I recognize the black ring I got him, it's Draco. He looks at me with an unreadable emotion. I feel frozen for a split second, but then I walk down to the platform. I turn and Dracos watching me. I shake my head and ignore him.
