My Unreachable Mate

Chapter 20

      Draco's POV:

I was seriously stressing out. Harry was looking at me weirdly as he negotiated the price for the candle and some books that caught his eye. He thought it would be a perfect gift for Princess.

"Seriously, stop it. You are starting to scare me now." Harry yelled at me while he payed for the stuff

"You don't get it. I have never ever refused her for anything before especially so damn, harshly." I said trying to make him see

"I'm sure she understands that you're just worried about her safety." Harry tried to comfort me while taking the bag of things he bought from the shopkeeper

"You won't understand, she is my last bit of family left Hadrian. My mum is drowning in depression, my father has pretty much lost sanity in azkaban. That girl is all I have left now. In pureblood customs, you can't speak to your family like that, it is highly frowned upon. No one must have ever spoken to her that way ever. Did you see how upset I made her? I hope Blaise is comforting her, fuck I hope she isn't crying." I stressed

"Now, you are truly overeating. Yes, you might have made her upset, you might be the first person that has ever spoken to her that way but she will be fine. You will apologise then do whatever it takes to make up to her." Harry said trying to calm me and comfort me as we left the shop

"But..." I was cut off

"No buts Draco. Blaise will take care of her, he did say they were going to look for a necklace so they must be around here somewhere in some jewellery shop." Harry snapped at me leaving no room for arguments

The two of us looked around for jewellery shops to no avail, why is it so damn hard to find a jewellery shop? I was nearing my wit's ends, ready to pull out my hair due to frustration. Merlin, please let my precious princess be okay. Harry looked like he didn't know whether to laugh at me as a payback for all those years or start crying himself. I rather he laughs, I don't think I can handle a crying male right now.

"There, look that's a jewellery shop." Harry said pointing at the said shop

I quickly marched over to the shop with Harry in tow. I looked through the glass window to see Princess looking uninterestedly at the pieces presented to her. The relief I felt when I saw her there was unexplainable. Harry and I sighed with relief at the same time causing me to look at him with a raised eyebrow.

"I honestly would have started crying myself if we hadn't found her here. I can't handle you when you are going crazy over her." Harry just shrugged

"She's here." I said smiling

"Do all Slytherins have mood swings like this or is it just you?" Harry asked eyeing me

"I don't know." I answered honestly

"Why?" Harry asked looking up at the sky

Just then the door to the jewellery shop opened and Blaise came out with Princess on his arm. He smiled at her while she pouted, both had snakes wrapped around their necks. Princess looked up and noticed me, her eyes lighting up instantly. Blaise have me a subtle glare to let me know that I was not of the hook.

"Princess, I am so sorry. I had no right to speak to you so harshly." I said rushing to her

"It's okay. I-I understand." Princess struggled

"It's not okay. I spoke to you very harshly, I should have never spoken to you that way, it was very wrong." I shook my head

"I forgive you." Princess said smiling

"Anyways, we should get going. It's going to be 5pm soon." Harry reminded

"I thought we were already late?" Princes said confusedly blinking
