Engaged to a Malfoy

Chapter 59: Katie

"Draco!" I called, rushing after him.

He turned. "What is it?"

"You weren't eating earlier, so I brought you an apple." I said, handing him the green apple.

His eyes lit up then grabbed it. "Thanks."

"You're welcome, Draco," I said then looked down. "Mind telling my why you look so troubled? Is something or someone bothering you?"

"I'm not troubled. I'm fine." He said.

"Something is bothering you. Just tell me." I said.

He sighed. "Y/N, darling. I'm fine."

I bit my lip then looked at his eyes. "Okay. Just tell me your problems if you do."

He grabbed my hand. "Tell you what, let's go grab a butterbeer at The Three Broomsticks tonight."

I smiled. "Sounds like a plan."

———

"Two butterbeers please." I said.

The waiter smiled then walked away.

Draco looked around then shift nervously.

"What's wrong?" I asked.

"I'm fine! Stop asking me questions." He spat.

I frowned. "Fine. I'm just concerned."

He sighed. "Y/N, I'm really sorry. I'm just stress. Really stress."

"About what?" I questioned.

"About some things. It doesn't matter." He said.

Then I noticed a briefcase beside his foot.

"Why is there-?"

"Listen, Y/N. I really need to go to the bathroom." He said then grabbed the briefcase.

Later on, he went back.

"Where's your briefcase, Draco?" I asked, getting suspicious.

"Doesn't matter." He took a sip of his drink.

"Draco, please...stop whatever you're hiding."

"Darling," he gave me a small smile then held my hand. "There is nothing to hide. I just handed it over to Blaise. He needs it." He explained.

"Oh," I nodded. "Alright."

He stood then grabbed my hand. "We need to go."

"Oh? Why?" I asked, taking a sip.

"Uh- I have a prefect meeting."

"Oh right! I'm a prefect too. We wouldn't want to be late.

He gulped. "Oh, you're a prefect too." He mumbled.

We went outside then I heard a scream.

I went closer then saw the trio and Katie Bell floating in the air with her mouth wide open.

Draco started shaking. I turned to him.

"You go ahead." I said.

"What about you?" He asked.

"I can handle it." I said.

He walked away.

I ran to the trio. "What happened?"

"I warned her..." Katie's friend sobbed. "I warned her not to touch it!"

"Touch what?" I asked then glanced at the very familiar briefcase.

Draco, what did you do?
