Trouble

Part 6

*Y/N POV*

I was lying on my bed watching some muggle television when my door burst open and 4 men walked in. My first instinct was to scream for mum and dad who were downstairs with some guests, but before i could even get up one of the men came over to me and held his hand over my mouth. I recognised him. Theodore Nott. My mind went racing and  i couldn't think. I would give anything to be anywhere else than here right now. I tried to kick him but he just moved his hand down to my neck and started to choke me. I tried to get out of his grip but the more i struggled the more his grip increased. I could feel my head get light and I couldn't breath. He let go and whispered in my ear " that's what you get for leaving me, You ungrateful bitch." He turned around and he was starting to walk out with the men when i grabbed my wand and did the only thing i could think of. Avada Kedavra. I didn't know who i hit but i hoped that it was Theo. I looked on the ground and saw 3 lifeless bodies and Theo stared at me with a maniac smile. He apparated away before i could do anything. I slowly fell down to the floor and started to cry. What have i become?

I woke up from that nightmare with dried tears and sweat all over my face. i got out of bed and grabbed a jumper and ran out of my room, through the common room and into the hallway. I ran in a random direction not really having a place in mind, just needing to get those memories out of my mind. I found some stairs and made my way up to see the most beautiful view i've seen. There was a balcony that overlooked the grounds. The sky was lit up with thousands of bright stars and in the middle was the moon. I stood there for a while just thinking about everything when I heard a shuffling sound from beside me. I didn't bother to look and I waited a few seconds before seeing a figure in my peripheral vision.

" It's beautiful isn't it!" the voice quietly said, almost excited

I turned my head to the  side to see Draco standing there. I took a second to take in his features. His platinum  blond hair that fell neatly over his head. His grey eyes that were focussed on the stars. He looked like a angel. He was in grey sweatpants and a white t-shirt. 

" I come out here whenever I have things on my mind, helps me clear my head." I watched as he spoke. His lips parting with each word . He turned his head to look at me. He focused his eyes on mine and we just stared at each other in comfortable silence. 

*Draco POV*

I saw a figure standing on the balcony when i walked up the stairs. I recognised her almost instantly, it was Y/N. 

" It's beautiful isn't it." I whispered, dazed by the view in front of me. Ever since i was a child i had loved taking my broom out at night and flying around, just watching the stars. 

She didn't say anything but i could tell she was looking at me. It was quiet but it didn't feel awkward at all. 

" I come out here whenever i have things on my mind, helps me clear my mind." i blurted out. I don't know why but i felt like i could trust her. I hated it. 

I turned my head to face her. I took a moment to take in her features for the first time since she got her. Even in the middle of the night she looked beautiful. She was wearing black shorts with a light grey jumper. She looked different to Tom and Mattheo but at the same time similar. Her y/c eyes and perfect lips. Her y/c hair was in a messy bun on top of her head. I then noticed the dried tear stains on her face. 

" Why were you crying?" I asked gently turning my body to face hers fully.

She didn't reply, she just looked down then back up towards the sky. 

" It's ok if you don't want to speak but i'm here if you feel like company." I sat down and looked back at the sky, but for some reason my gaze kept wandering to her. She sat down on the floor next to me, our shoulders almost touching. 

" I guess i had a nightmare. Just needed to get my mind of it. What about you?"

" I come up here a lot. I've loved watching the stars since i was little." I told her. 

We sat there in silence for a while then I got up and held my arm out waiting for her to take it.

" What are you doing" she questioned.

" Cheering you up. I may not be the best with motivational words but I can be pretty fun sometimes."

She chuckled and took my hand and I pulled her up. I took my wand out and with a simple swish a soft music started playing. I took her hands and twirled her around while we slowly swayed to the music. It was nice and peaceful and we just stared at each other, taking in each others presence. I spun her around and dipped her and brought her back up and a small smile took over her face. We quietly spoke to each other and laughed a little all while swaying back and forth. I couldn't help but admire her. She was by far the prettiest girl in hogwarts. There was something about her that made me just want to be near her all the time. The song changed and a new song started to play. Y/n started to sing along to the lyrics and her voice sounded heavenly. I looked at her in awe as i listened to her voice. She finished singing and we just stood there in each others embrace. 

" I never got to say thank you and sorry about what happened with Ron and Harry earlier." she said her smile faltering slightly and her head dropping. 

I put my finger under her chin and raise her head so she was looking at me again. 

" You have no reason to say sorry, i'm sorry you saw what happened it's just when he said that you froze and started crying." As I said that a tear slipped down her face. I wiped it away and pulled her into a hug.

" I will always be here if you need anything."
