" Stargazing - The Neighbourhood "
Draco's POV

" Eve, I told you not to bring butterbeer with you " I said with my arms crossed.
She is so funky, with her messy hair and a butterbeer in one had and a journal in the other.

" Oh c'mon ferret princess don't fret " she said in her usual sugary voice.

We laid down, on the grass watching the stars shine.

" Why do you carry a journal? " I asked

" It's more than a journal to me. I have recorded every single day of my life since the age of 6. I have always considered a friend more than a diary.
It was with me in all my ups and downs. What about you? "

A small smile formed on my face.

" I know it may sound weird but I have written everything that I cannot tell anyone else. It is like very close to me and I feel that it is more of a friend than a journal."

She grabbed my hand and then twisted her head to me.

" I love you "

Her words were so comforting that I couldn't help but feel safe.

Looked at her, her mesmerizing eyes. Too beautiful to be true. In her eyes I saw the ashes of burning stars and vanished galaxies. She lives like the silence between thoughts-
" Draco? Are you listening?"
I quickly snapped out of my reverie

" You aren't able accept the fact that you have fallen for me, aren't you? "

Well that is some truth over there.

The moonlight danced on her face as she spoke.

" You know, I didn't know that you could be so sweet after being a bully for four years. "

" Me neither, I always thought you hated me. I never realized that how to see small, meaningless talks changed into love."

I guess I don't deserve her, she is so kind and loving but I am a monster. I am a bad person, a very bad one but she still loves me. Why? How can such an angel fall for the devil?

" Now quickly, swallow the butterbeer " she ordered
" You know I don't like-"

" No complaints, drink "
She would always convince me to do anything she wants.

We sat up and took out our butterbeers.

" Cheers! "
" Cheers "
She literally drank all of it in one go.

" You know what I used to do as a child? Evan and I used to make butter beers together and then drink it near my father's grave. I still miss him, a lot "

A tear fell down as she mentioned about him.
" But you know it's alright, I still have some memories with him. I loved him to my heart, the way he used to pick me up and give me every book I ever wanted. He used to say that one day he will give me to someone, who is worthy of me and will always keep me safe even if the price is their life. Someone who is brave enough to keep me away from them for my safety"
More tears started to drop as she said.

" If someone could ever be my father's choice, it would be you."

I may not be her father's choice. I am a coward. I am selfish and not a very nice person to be with.

" I think I can love you"

I placed my hand on her face, gently.

In an instant she lunged on me and kisses me.
I couldn't stop myself and gave in
We both were trapped into each other's hugs.

It was passionate but soft at the same time. It almost felt unreal to kiss her in the moonlight.
Her hands slowly goes through my hair as it's normal for both of her.

It was all so beautiful
I pressed my forehead onto hers.

" I love you " I whispered in between

" I love you too, ferret princess"
We both couldn't open our eyes for a few seconds after that.

She finally left me, with her face all red.

" That was good, you have improved at kissing, Draco"

" Oh shut up" I snapped at her, but in a childish way.
She laughed like someone was tickling her.

" Look, a shooting star! " She yelled
" I wish that we will die for each other "

" That isn't the best wish Eve" I noted.

I wish that I could gain the power to protect her

" Where would you go if no one was there to stop you? " I asked

" To India, particularly banarasi or vrindavan "

" Why? "

" So that I could be more close to my home country, I miss it. "

" What if I take you there? " I replied

" I would kiss you all over " she joked with a smirk

" Then there is a deal "
We both laughed

The sun was on the verge of rising.

" Gotta go! Meet you in potions "

And she left me.

I love her.
