It started as a joke DracoxReader

No. No. No.

You fixed your hair as you walked into the grand hall, your cheeks flushed matching his. As you walked in you saw him, Harry Potter. Talking to Katie Bell who shook her head at him. That was until she saw you and Draco, then her face fell flat as she stared at you.

"Go" Draco whispered to you. You were frozen, he knew. Harry knew... "Go" Draco grabbed your shoulders to move you out of the room. You were running out of the grand hall then, making your way into the hallway. "We need to get to the common room" Draco said as he rushed alongside you. It was the only place in the castle Potter couldn't go. "Run" he whispered as you heard rushed footsteps. Your feet hit the stone hard as you ran, your heart pounding.

Why were you so afraid?

It was only Potter?

You dipped around a corner quickly to ask Draco why you were running. But he was gone.

"Draco?" You whispered as you peaked around the corner. An instant rush of panic flushed over you, where did he go? Why did he fall behind?

No.

Beside your better judgement you walked back down the hallway, hoping maybe you'd catch the sight of his blonde hair in a dark corner or long hallway.

No luck.

where the fuck was he?

You found yourself back at the grand hall, your heart racing and your body sweating. This can't be good. This can't be good.

You caught the sight of Snape, who recognized the look of absolute panic on your face and excused himself from the table he was sitting at and the conversation he held.

You were gone again once he left the room, of all the professors Snape was the only one you could see that may help, even if you didn't trust him.

"What happened?" He asked as he finally caught up to you.

"Potter. He knows what I did. What I did to the girl. He followed us, I just.. I don't know where Draco went I-" just as you spoke you walked by a bathroom where a loud crashing noise rattled the walls. You and Snape looked at one another, then moved to the door.

"Wait here" Snape instructed as you reached for the door.

"Snape I don't think now is the time to care if this is a boys room" you insisted pulling the door.

"No you foolish girl. If Potter is attacking Draco for cursing the girl then he may attack you as well" he stopped your quick movements with a hand on your shoulder.

"Just go" you moved aside as you pulled open the door, the room was filled with steam from broken sinks spitting hot water onto the floor. You could barely see inside until the steam floated around you as Snape rushed in.

You heard him before you saw him, painful whines rolled with the steam around your body in the doorway. The sight hit you worse than any curse could, Harry Potter was standing over Draco. Who was laying on his back in a few inches of pooling water.

Your breathing stopped completely when you saw the blood. So much blood...

Draco, it seemed, had pulled away the sweater he was wearing and was now only in his white shirt, well. It was white before. Now it was stained crimson red with blood along with the water around him.

What had Harry done?

What kind of spell does this?

Your brain was rushing so quickly you lost control of your feet, sprinting into the room past Harry who continued to stand over Draco and now Snape who just watched Harry. What was he doing? Just letting him walk away?

Your knees hit the ground hard, the fall only broken by tainted water that soaked every inch of your cloaks and clothing. This can't be it.

This can't be the end.

No.
No.
No.

"Draco please" you begged as his crying noises stopped. "Snape what is happening?"

Harry just seemed to watch for a second, before back away from the room. You watched as the chosen one seeped back into the hallways, your body quacked with anger. You stood quickly, gripping your wand in your hand.

Harry Fucking Potter.

He can't honestly think you'd just let him walk away after killing Draco. Did he?

Before you could rush out of the room, which was filled now with the deafening sounds of nothing but water. You heard Snape's voice.

"Y/n STOP!" He yelled "he's alive"

Those words graced your ears better than any hymn.
"Come here and hold him while I fix him" Snape instructed, pulling you back from the bout of aggressive rage that rolled from you.

You would have killed that day, if not for those words.
You went back to Draco, sitting with your legs crossed and pulling him onto your lap. Snape's voice turned to sing songy words as he waved his wand over Draco.

"Please baby" you leaned your lips to press them to his forehead, his skin red and hot. "What kind of spell even does this?" You begged as your hands stained red. Snape didn't answer, he just continued chanting.
Nothing seemed to be working until you watched as the blood around you seemed to collect back. Leaving even your skin as it returned home to him. But he still made no noise, he still lay so still you wondered if he was even breathing.

For the love of Merlin, please be breathing.

Please. Just be okay.

Please.

"Draco please I can't do this without you"

It felt like an eternity before you heard him gasp, the kind of gasp you make when you had taken on too much water, or one you made when you were clearly avoiding death.

Snape had helped you bring Draco back to your room. Insisting bringing him to Madam Pomfrey would only make for questions you didn't want to answer.

"Y/n you need to be careful, you can't be attacking Potter like you wanted to"

"I won't" you spoke as you pulled away Draco's soaked shoes. You had to get him out of those wet clothes before he caught a death of cold.

"I'm serious" Snape snapped.

"Please leave" you spoke again, your voice stern and flat.

"Tell me you understand me"

"I understand you" you turned to him. The thought of thanking him for saving Draco didn't even cross your mind in the moment. All you could think about was how it was their fault Draco had almost died. It was all their faults for involving children in their war.

He didn't deserve this.

None of you did.

You were pushing Snape from the room then, "get out" you ground your teeth.

"Y/n he'll be okay" Snape spoke as he backed away through the door.

"Just get the fuck out! He wouldn't be in this if it weren't for you people" you screamed as you slammed the door. Putting a wooden wall between you two and the rest of the world. Locking it double with a spell.

Fuck them.
Fuck this war.
And fuck Harry Potter.
