Falling In Love With A Slytherin

Chapter 26

Elizabeth POV:

I felt my whole body go into shock. No.  It can't be.

"If my grandfather is Tom Riddle. That means my mother is-"

"Amelia Riddle. Which makes you the rightful heir  and descendant of Salazar Slytherin." Narcissa finishes for me.

"Your technically royalty." Narcissa jokes. Trying to lighten up the mood.

But I was in no mood for jokes. I was beyond angry. Tears were starting to roll down my face uncontrollably.

"No! Your lying! This can't be! I'm not related to that monster! This has to be some mistake!" I scream out in frustration.

Professor Mcgonagall frowns. "I wish she was lying Miss Swan but Narcissa is telling you the truth."

I start to feel like I was suffocating. The room felt like it was shrinking and it was getting harder for me to breath.

I get up from my seat and quickly open the door. Just as I was about to run out of the room, I bumped into something hard. Or someone.

Right in front of me was Draco. He grabs me and hugs me tightly. Sighing with relief.

"Oh thank the gods your safe. Where have you been?" He looks at me with his arms still wrapped around me and caresses my cheek softly with his hand.

He notices me with tears in my eyes and I look away from him. Draco frowns.
"What's wrong? Why are you crying?

"I-I." My mouth wouldn't let me form the words that I wanted to say to him. Instead, I break my hug and ran away from him.

I hear Draco call out my name but I didn't look back. Right now, I needed to be alone.

Draco's POV:

Swan breaks our hug and she runs away from me. I yell out her name but she keeps on running. Deciding to go after her, somebody stops me by grabbing my shoulder. I look back and saw that it was my mom.

"What are you doing here?" I ask her all confused.

"I was called to be here." My mom tells me.

I eye her suspiciously. Why would they need my mom to be here? Most importantly, why was she with Swan?

"It's best if you let Elizabeth be for awhile. She had a very hard day. She's pretty much drained out."

"What happened?" I ask her.

I look at my mom and I could see that she was trying to find the right words to tell me.
"Elizabeth will tell you when she's ready. It's just too much for her to take right now."

I didn't know what to say to my mother. All I could think about is how worried I am for Swan.

"Sooo...." 

I break off my thoughts and look at my mom lifting one eyebrow.

"Is there something happening between you and Elizabeth?"  An amused expression was worn on her face.

"And why would you think that?"

"It's just that I saw you hug her so tightly when you saw her and the way you looked at her as well."
