When I Found Out

I'm sitting on the hard, wooded bench at the Slytherin table, eating breakfast with Malfoy and his little gang of friends. The day has gone by good so far, other than Malfoy acting all different.
Like seriously, ever since I first got on the train to this morning he's been acting strange. I look over to Malfoy and see him glaring at Potter with a mix of disgust and laughter in this abnormally cute grin.
I think back to when I was listening in to Malfoy and Potter on the train, wondering, what could they have been doing that he wouldn't want anyone to know. I look closer at Potter and see his nose, looks a little bent as some would say.

But, the one thing I'm worried about is what Pansy told me in the common room last night. Before we were only talking about boys and stuff, then she brought up Malfoy. She said Malfoy might be a Death Eater. Pansy didn't know for sure he was, but before I came on the the train he was talking about how he might not be at school the next year and giving off some very broad hints.

Of course I would still date a Death Eater, just the excitement in evil and danger is something I would always live for.

"Hey, you good?" Asked Blaise in a concerning tone. "Yeah yeah I'm fine" I replied back, he probably asked me if I was good because I was sitting there with my head hanging off my neck thinking about what Pansy told me.

I whisper to Blaise;  "hey, so does anything happen to Malfoy over the break, he seems off lately?" He responds quickly "ok don't tell anyone but, I think some things happened with his family over the break, like to do with you-know-who". We both go silent. I have a wide-eyed look upon my face, he has a straight but serious look on his. "Mhm, Pansy did tell me some stuff about him last night in the common room" his face turns confused after I said that, "wait, what'd she tell you?" Blaise side-eyes Pansy with an angry expression. "She went on about how she thinks Malfoy might be a Death Eater" I said surprisingly casual but still in a whispering tone. We both go quite but the silence ends when Dumbledore starts talking. Of course Dumbledore gives his usual speech about new things that are happening with the school.

After Dumbledore's speech Me, Pansy, Blaise and Malfoy all sit up and leave. The second I walk out, I get tugged backwards and don't have enough time to look back and see who it is. A big, warm hand covers my eyes and keeps dragging me backwards until we are at least in a different hall way. The hand slides off my face slowing. I turn right around as fast as I could just, to see Malfoy.

"Y/n, we need to talk" he says quietly and calmly. "Bloody hell Malfoy, you scared me, but what about exactly?" I question. "So I'm telling you and only you this because I feel like you're the only one who'd not hate me afterwards" Malfoy says slowly while looking dead into my eyes. He grabs his forearm sleeve on his left arm. "Now, you can't tell anyone. It's so important you could kill me by telling someone else." By the time he says that there is only a few inches between us. "I'm a death eater" he says in a sad tone. After hearing this I freeze, but the next move I chose to do is something that changed my life forever.
