Consequences [D.M]

CHAPTER 18

Y/N immediately walks away from that place with anger. Angry to Draco who's unexpectedly giving her gift and leading to what Pansy just did to her. Angry at how rude Pansy is. No one has ever treated her in that way. NO ONE.

"Y/N! Wait!" she could hear some footsteps are running towards her and she decided to ignore it. She tried to fasten her pace but a hand just gripped her wrist. It belongs to no other than Draco Malfoy. "Hey, let me go!" she tried to pull aback but his grip tightened. "What do you want?" Y/N glares.

"I want to talk." He looks at her. "There's nothing to talk about, Malfoy. I'll assume that you've mis-owl me that Christmas. That's it. End of conversation." Y/N huffed as she tries once again to get away.

"I did not mis-owl you that day. It was meant for you."

Draco replied as she looks at her in the eyes. Her heart skipped a beat once she heard those words come out from his mouth.

"What in salazar has happened to you?" Y/N asked in disbelief. "Nothing. It's just a Christmas gift." Draco says. "But, your girlfriend is overreacting about it. Don't you understand?" the girl scoffed. "How many times do I have to tell you that we're not in any relationship?" Draco scoffed.

"What she did to me confirmed what are you two were. And now, let me go. I don't want to get involve in any of this matters anymore." Y/N replied firmly. "At least, you take this back with you." Draco sighed as she placed the necklace with crescent pendant on her palm.

"I don't think so." Y/N gave it back and walks away leaving the boy alone. She goes to the place nearby the Black Lake where she always spends her time at whenever she got something in her mind. She throws her bag on the ground, inhales deeply and exhales, slowly close her eyes and tried to calm herself.

It was a calm moment for a while until someone flicked her forehead making her startled. As she opened her eyes, she sees a familiar figure standing in front of her. It's Jeremy. "Do inform Professor Flitwick that you're not going back your common room because I'm totally going to kill you." Y/N says as she hits the boy's arm.

"Hey, why so serious?" he chuckles lightly. "Nothing." She shook her head. "Is there something wrong? And why is your cheek being reddish?" Jeremy asked as he sees how horrible did she look.

"Thanks for your concern but nothing happens." Y/N lied. "Did you know that you did not know how to lie?" Jeremy smiles softly as she brings her to sit on the ground. "There's nothing happens. I swear." She hid it again.

"The way your eyes look tells a different story."

Jeremy looks at her in the eyes. "So, now you did know how to read eyes? When did you learn?" Y/N tried to run away from his questions. "Don't change the topic, Y/N. I want to know the truth. Please." Jeremy says with a soft tone in his voice.

"Fine." She takes a deep breath. "Pansy slaps me." Y/N exclaims. "Why on earth she's doing that?" Jeremy asked in disbelief. "She thought that I'm taking Malfoy away from her because he gave me a gift on Christmas." Y/N explains briefly. "And why is he giving you gift?" Jeremy crossed his arms. "I don't know." Y/N shook her head.

"Are you alright now?" the boy asked kindly. "Physically okay but not mentally. I'm still quite mad at what happened." Y/N replied as she leans her head on his shoulder.

"My best advice that I can give to you is do stay away from him." Jeremy says as he looks at her. "I don't want you to be hurt once again because of him." He says softly. "Thanks for the advice." She smiles and close her eyes. "Let me calm myself first." She says.

"Don't fall asleep on my shoulder, your head is heavy. I won't be able to write tomorrow because my shoulder hurts." He chuckles. "Shut up before I cast a spell to keep your mouth shut." She pinched his arm lightly as the boy smiles.

After been a while, Jeremy take a look at his watch. "It almost curfew, let's head back to the castle." He stands up as he held his hand for the girl which she gladly grabbed it and both of them go back to the castle together.
