IT TURNS OUT that Draco mission was bigger than what y/n thought. Narcissa had sent y/n a letter earlier in the morning saying the Voldemort forgot to fill y/n up with another Draco task. Which is having to mend the broken Vanishing Cabinet.
It is late at night, Draco sneak off with y/n, by the orders of Voldemort. They made it to the Room of Requirements. Which in the earlier year, the DA trained— or that's what y/n heard. A door suddenly appeared in the middle of a hall and Draco got in, y/n followed.
Inside there where many things, unusual things that are broken. One particular rectangular thing stood tall with a white fabric who is bug enough to cover the big cabinet, catches Draco's eyes.
"Is that it?" y/n looked at the cabinet infront of them, Draco only hummed and opened up the covers, revealing a wooden cabinet.
"Do you know how to fix it?" y/n asks looking at Draco whose examining the cabinet.
"No." Draco says clearly annoyed.
Y/n roll her eyes and look around and saw a couch which is a little broken. She walk towards it and sat down, making herself comfortable and stare at Draco whose still examining the cabinet.
He looked different, unlike the other previous year, he had no smirks, only frowns. There's no cocky attitude, he hangs his head low. Not wanting to be constantly looked at and wanting not to be seen.
"You change." y/n smile. Her voice is loud enough and make Draco look at her.
"Come here." She pet the sofa beside her. Draco walk slowly and unsure but finally sat down beside her. Y/n tilt her body to look at him.
"What did they've done to you?" y/n quietly asks as she petted Draco's head, suddenly, Draco started crying as he heard what she says. He leans towards y/n whose petting his soft hair to calm him down.
"They— they want me to ki— kill him, they pla—planted the dar— mark on me." he cries.
"Hey, since we already found the cabinet, let's just go back." y/n says softly, Draco just nodded. Y/n wiped Draco's tears and smile, making him smile too.
"Let's go, you're staying in my room." y/n slings an arm around him as they walk back to the common room.
Miraculously, they didn't bump in to any teacher nor Filch. The two went straight to y/n's room. Where y/n freshen up and change into some pajamas and lay on the bed.
"Why do I have to stay here again?" he asks as he looked at a laying y/n.
"Because I knew you wouldn't sleep if you're alone." she look at him with a knowing look.
"I sleep you know." Draco stated and y/n roll her eyes.
"Yes for only five minutes then you spend the whole night in the common room looking at the fire." y/n stated making Draco sigh but eventually gave in.
The two of them lay under the covers, just the two of them. Y/n turn her body the other way so they're facing each other, she close her eyes.
"I'm sorry, really." he mumble but y/n catch that due the closeness.
"Sorry for what?" she asks opening her eyes and stare into Draco's silver ones.
"Everything." he mumble.
"I'm sorry that I left you, that I waste you, that I've hurt you." he says softly.
"It's fine, Theo helped." y/n smiles as she said the name.
"You two are a couple?" Draco asks making y/n felt a pang on her chest.
"No." She shook her head.
"Oh, I thought you were, you just look happy." he mumble.
"I was happy." y/n gave him a lip-tight smile.
"I was wrong about me saying I could treat you better than he does." He mumble, y/n nodded in agreement.
"But I didn't lie." he says his voice booming. Y/n look at him, confused.
"When I told you, I love you, that's true." He says sincerely making y/n smile sadly.
"But you know what they say, action speaks louder."
"The way you treat me says a lot." she narrow her eyes.
"But you weren't exactly that innocent, you never gave it all to us." he exclaim.
"I couldn't because I couldn't imagine give it all while you treat me like that." she reasoned.
"Well for that I'm sorry so much." Draco mumble.
"You deserve someone like Theo." he says.
"But Theo says he doesn't deserve him." y/n mumble.
"I knew he loved you even before I do." he stated.
"So?"
"So, he really adores you and you know him and his insecurities." he says.
"What should I do then?" y/n asks.
"Convinced him you feel the same way."
"But he know I do feel the same." y/n pouted.
"What's the problem then?" he asks getting confused.
"We're still betrothed remember?" y/n asks and Draco's eyes widen.
"fuck."
