The Mark • Draco Malfoy x Reader

Something wicked this way comes

Your POV
I missed my first defense against the dark arts lesson which was lucky. Harry shouted at the new professor and got detention. Unluckily for Harry the detention fell on the night of quidditch tryouts for Gryffindor. The whole team was required to go, or they had to face the wrath of Angelina. Of course Harry, being Harry, had to face the wrath of Angelina and it wasn't pretty.

After witnessing the very public yelling match I walked down to Cedric's tree to clear my head. After taking that beating I was more susceptible to headaches. I hadn't seen Draco since the hospital wing, and I was confused. He seemed very distracted when I saw him last and he had large dark circles under his eyes.

I stood with my forehead pressed against the bark of the tree. It was rough, but it was also cool and it made my head feel a little bit better. I nearly jumped out of my skin when I felt a pair of strong arms wrap around my waist.

"Calm down, Y/N I'm not going to hurt you", Draco said
"I'm sorry. People don't usually sneak up on me and hug me.", I said craning my head to look at him.
"You are ridiculous, sunshine."
"No I'm just cautious.", I turned around in Draco's embrace so that I was facing him.

I stared into his gray eyes and felt the butterflies swarming in my stomach. I admired his face. The way his smile traveled all the way up to his eyes, and the way his face brightened every time he looked at me.

"What are you staring at? You haven't gone round the bend have you?", Draco asked laughing.
"I was admiring you, you git", I retorted.

Draco's smiled widened (if that was possible) and he bent down and connected his lips with mine. They fit my lips like the missing piece to the jigsaw puzzle that was my life.

And all the sudden the words tumbled out of my mouth
"Thank you. Thank you for being there for me. For being the only anchor in my life. Thank you for being the calm in the chaos that surrounds me, and thank you for choosing me.", I said without pausing for breath

Draco looked like he was contemplating something. A minute or two later he started speaking.
"Sunshine, all of the things you just said to me are feelings that I reciprocate towards you. I thought of you all the time over the summer when my father was being especially awful, or my mother was pressuring me to make...some decisions, and I am so grateful for you with every fiber of my being."

Draco and I spent the whole evening underneath the tree. I was so content with life. I had a beautiful boy that I was totally head over heels for. I had wonderful friend that I was utterly grateful for. My parents loved me, and I was doing well in all of my classes. And yet there was something tugging at the back of my mind that just wouldn't go away.
-----------------
I was walking down a hallway.
It was dark and I was scared. I could hear screams in every direction.

"Y/N!", I heard a very familiar voice shout. I ran towards it, all other thoughts pushed from my head.

Draco laid on the floor of the hallway drenched in blood and reaching out towards me.

I ran, but no matter how fast I went, or how far I thought I ran I couldn't reach him.

He started screaming

I woke up drenched in sweat, and panting. My nightmares had gotten increasingly worse, and I couldn't figure out why.

All I knew was that something bad was coming, and it was going to be the death of us all.

Hey guys! I'm sorry I suck as a human being, and this chapter is really underwhelming. I've been having major writers block. I'm trying really hard to get new chapters up on my most popular books. I love all of you.
