Distant Memories (Draco Malfoy ff)

35. Our Spot

Adelpha's Pov:

12/30/1971
Today was the Yule Ball. I was wearing the dress he had gotten me. It looked beautiful on me, I just hoped Chris didn't suspect anything or say anything. Chris came and picked me up at my dorm a few minutes late, but I didn't want to say anything. I was sort of scared of Chris. When we arrived I was immediately dragged by Chris over to drink with his friends, who had spiked the punch with way to much Alcohol for how much they were drinking. I just wanted to dance and have a normal night for once.
'Chris please I don't want to drink, no stop." I whined as Chris tried pushing a drink in my mouth. 
Chris finally stopped and went back to ignoring me and drinking with his friends. Future Alcoholic much? I looked around the great hall room I spotted him. He had a black suit on head to top with a green little rose in the front pocket of his suit. He was laughing with a girl as she used her hands to make a joke. She had a beautiful green dress that suited her black straight hair and beautiful blue eyes perfectly. He must've felt someone's gaze on him because he looked over at me. I smiled until my attention was being pulled away by a bugging Chris.
'Chris bloody hell stop!' I yelled as he tried getting me to drink again. I decided to walk away and walk over to the table Chris told me to go sit at. I looked at all the happy couples dancing and laughing around the room. I couldn't help but think what if that could've been me and him. I rolled my eyes and took a deep breath when I noticed Chris walking over to me with even more friends of his.
"Drink this now." Chris whispered in my ear harshly as his friends looked down with a smirk on their faces.
'No.' I muttered.
Chris shoved the drink up to my mouth. I grabbed the drink and chucked it right back at Chris and let it pour on his face.
Chris immediately grabbed my wrist and jerked me foward.
'You're going to get it now-'
Chris was cut off by a fist hitting his face. My mouth dropped and he hit Chris so hard he fell to his side.
'Cmon, let gets out of here. Let's go to our spot.' He smiled at me. I took my hand within his and fled to seen of a bloody Chris yelling.

"Wake up, wake up!" A yelling voice came from my door way.

I sat up and looked up at a bubbly Luna.

"Bloody hell Luna what?" I moaned letting my head fall back at hit the pillow.

I had finally been taking care of myself and mental health like Draco told me. I wanted to be the best self of myself so I could be with him. I wanted to make things right. To say healing was exhausting was an understatement .

"Don't bloody hell me! It's 2 o clock in the afternoon, and the Yule Ball is at 6 and you have to help me I'm stressing!" She groaned as she jumped on the bed with me.

I rolled my eyes and pulled the pillow over my head.

"Please?" She pouted as she pulled the pillow off of me.

I couldn't help but smile and laugh at her happiness and how eager she was. I rolled over and let my feet hit the cold hard wood floor. She made cheering noises as she ran to out to the bathroom. I shook my head with a smile on my face and headed to my dresser.

I grabbed a flannel and stripped my shirt off and buttoned the flannel.

"Luna put on a flannel with no shirt underneath, that way when you take it off to get your dress on it won't ruin your make up or hair!" I yelled from my room.

I walked back into the bathroom and plugged in the hair straightener and curling iron. I set out the make up and let Luna pick what colors she wanted. I did my best to match her pale skin tone with my a little more tan colors.

We spent the whole time laughing and messing up, but sure enough I finished her make up and hair. She wanted her simply wavy so I used the straightener to put a few dents or whatever in it and did a slightly blue shimmer to match her dress.
