Hold Onto Me (A Draco Malfoy story)

Chapter nineteen: The Bracelet

"You know, I can't deal with you Malfoy. You are the definition of bipolar! One second you are all nice to me and caring, the next you are a complete dick." I said and put my fork down.
He turned to me with a shocked expression. "Well I'm sorry but it seems to me like one second you actually want to hang out with me then the next you're all over someone else!" He said and put his fork down dramatically.
"Jesus Draco, I'm not a dog! I'm not your property! Stop acting like I have to obey your every command!" I said and stood up, leaving the dining hall.
Frustrated, I went into the bathrooms and after seeing if I was alone, I pulled my hair back and splashed water on my face. Quickly I returned my hair to cover my scar because like the predictable person he is, Draco walked into the bathroom.
"I'm sorry." He said and I raised my eyebrows.
"Well that's not a sentence you hear from Draco Malfoy often." I said with an attitude and he clenched his jaw.
"Well I'm saying it." He said. "Look, I am sorry. I get angry a lot because I don't like the people you hang out with. I don't like how they are always touching you, and how Fred is constantly kissing your cheek. It makes me upset. But you're right. It is your life and I do not own you." It seemed like he really felt bad. He was very mature and was trying his best.
"Thank you. I forgive you Draco." I said and took a step closer to him.
He wrapped his arms around my waist and brought me even closer to him so our bodies were almost touching.
"Good. cause I did not want to go by myself." He whispered and kissed my forehead.
I wrapped my arms around him and we just stood there, in the bathroom of all places, enjoying each others presence.

Me and Draco walked hand and hand through Hogsmeade, walking in and out of shops. He had just gotten us Hot cocoa which I gladly accepted, but he wouldn't let me pay him back.
We passed by a shop that had different types of jewelry in the window. Necklaces, bracelets, rings, everything. They seemed hand made, like no magic, and it intrigued me. I didn't realise I had stopped walking until draco was yanked back and almost spilled his drink.
"Would you like to go look?" He asked once he noticed I had stopped.
"No, that's ok. Sorry you almost spilled your drink." I said embarrassed.
"Nonsense." Draco stated and started walking to the store.
It was very beautiful and homey inside, what I imagine a hufflepuff and ravenclaw couples store to look like.
"Hello! Can I help you two with anything?" A girl with brown hair and a yellow sundress that went down to her shins asked.
"Oh, no we are just looking around." I said. "I uh, I was looking at some of the jewelry, do you make it by hand?"
She smiled at me and nodded. "Yes. We use magic to clean up or if something breaks, but its pretty much all by hand, I'm surprised you noticed."
"It looked handmade." I said and realised that sounded rude. "N-not in a bad way. I'm sorry that sounded like an insult. I meant that it uh, it looked like each one was like... individually made." I stuttered, making a fool of myself.
Draco chuckled next to me and I stepped on his foot as to tell him to shut up.
"It's ok, I know what you meant." She said and stuck out her hand. "My name is Isabelle. Hufflepuff and was a 7th year... 4 years ago."
"Lillian Potter, fourth year." I said and shook her hand.
"Wait, really?" She said with wide eyes.
"Yeah, Harry is my twin." I said and turned to Draco to as to divert the attention. "And this is my..." I stopped, not sure what to say. "Draco. This is Draco."
He chuckled at me again and shook her hand. "Draco Malfoy."
"Well, if I would've known I was meeting a Potter and a Malfoy today I would have cleaned up the shop a bit more." Isabella joked. "Pleasure."
A taller girl with olive skin, curly brown hair pulled into a braid down her back, and overalls walked out from a back room after hearing the voices.
"And this is my lovely wife, Grace." Isabella said. The girl walked over and shook our hands. "Love. this is Lillian Potter and Draco Malfoy."
"Well hello, what brings you two here?" Grace asked.
"I'm not sure exactly." I said honestly. I was just drawn here. There was something so homey about it.
"Well, what are your houses?" Grace asked us.
"Slytherin." we answered at the same time.
She looked at us and then her wife. They exchanged a silent agreement and Isabelle ran into the back room and returned with a jewelry box.
She opened it and inside was a silver charm bracelet. On it it already had three charms. One was a green snake, the other was a tiny bottle that had a cork top. Inside was green and silver flakes that moved on their own. The last charm was a small heart that opened.
"Press it." Grace said. I did and it opened and showed a bright light. "You can put memories in there. That way, they're always with you."
I smiled at the bracelet. It was amazing.
"I love it." I breathed out.
I reached for my purse but a cold, familiar hand stopped me.
"Consider it a gift." Draco said and handed Isabelle a stack of galleons, more than necessary.
"Oh, thank you." She said and he nodded.
"Thank you for the bracelet." He said simply.
Once we were outside, Draco quickly pulled me behind an old shop and pulled out the box. He reached for my arm but I hesitated. There was a possibility that he wouldn't see. Hesitantly I gave him my arm and he took out the bracelet. He pulled up my sleeve but I kept my arm facing down. He clipped it on and looked me in the eyes.
"Thank you." I whispered.
"You are so beautiful." He said as his response. He cupped the left side of my face and put his other hand on my waist. "So beautiful."
