My Secret Boyfriend

54

(y/n) sat quietly in the compartment on the Hogwarts Express, her knees up to her chest as she stared at the window.

she couldn't get the image of Draco at Borgin and Burkes out of her mind. he looked so pleased, yet so unsure.

"(y/n)!" Harry said, breaking her out of her trance.

"huh? what?" she asked, looking into his green eyes.

"you alright?" he asked her.

"yeah.. carry on." she spoke.

Harry stared at her for another second then continued his theory.

"Malfoy's a Death Eater. i mean, think of it. why was Borgin so frightened when Malfoy showed him something? it was the Mark." Harry stated.

"what?" (y/n) interrupted.

"why else would he be in there?" Harry questioned, his eyebrows rising.

"he's a creepy bloke.. it's a creepy shop." Ron said.

"i need some air." Harry sighed, grabbing something and shuffling out of the compartment.

"i can't believe he would accuse Draco of being.. one of them." (y/n) said, her voice breaking. she had been a whirl of emotions lately. she was either angry, upset, or quiet.

Ron and Hermione shared a look.

"i'm sure you-know-who wouldn't allow a sixteen year old to become one of them." Hermione reassured.

Harry slid into the compartment after Blaise, crawling up to the trunk storage. Draco laid across the seats, Pansy stroking his hair with a smirk on her face.

"Hogwarts.. what a pathetic excuse for a school. i think i'd pitch myself off the Astronomy tower if i thought i had to continue for another two years." Draco scoffed, his face twisted in disgust.

"what's that supposed to mean?" Pansy asked. Blaise looked at him; questioning.

"let's just say i don't think you'll see me wasting my time in Charms class next year." Draco smirked slightly.

Blaise let out a small laugh.

"amused, Blaise? we'll see just who's laughing in the end." Malfoy said.

Harry felt an anger pool in his stomach as Pansy continued to play with Draco's hair. he was with (y/n).. and she had been so upset by the loss of contact, and now he's here with Parkinson?

Harry moved a little bit, not realizing he was making Goyle's bag twitch slightly. after the train stopped Crabbe, Goyle, Blaise, and Pansy got up.

"you guys go on. i want to check something." Draco dismissed them.

(y/n) got out of the compartment, following behind Ron and Hermione as they walked to the castle. her eyes continued staring at the floor.

Draco shut the compartment door, sliding the blinds down.

"didn't mummy ever tell you it was rude to eavesdrop, Potter? Petrificus Totalus!"

Harry fell to the floor, his body frozen as Malfoy lifted the Invisibility Cloak.

"oh yeah.. she was dead before you could wipe the drool of your chin." Draco spat. he raised his foot, stomping furiously on Harry's nose.

CRACK

blood spilled from his nostrils as he lay there.

"that's for my father.. enjoy your ride back to London." Draco said, throwing the cloak back over Harry.

he grabbed his bag, exiting the train.
