It was a beautiful day at Hogwarts the sun was shining, the hippogriffs were flying, the merfolks were singing and Draco Malfoy was quaking in his edgy black Doc Martens because once again, he done messed up.

*Lets rewind*

Draco Malfoy was never one for love. Even his words were laced with cold sharp sounding venom. His platonic love was only extended to one parent, Narcissa, but even then it was entirely short cut. In a short conclusion Draco was absolutely horrible at expressing his feelings. Straight Up. So when y/n came as a transfer and unintentionally swept Malfoy of his feet, he wasn't quite sure how to react. Stuttering and shaking with sweaty nervous hands were only some of the unfamiliar symptoms you gave Draco. He was quite literally a nervous wreck around you. He'd never felt something like this before and wasn't sure how to act. So when he found out you were a muggle born, that was just the cherry on top of the cake. 

He had obviously realized that his father would never approve of you. Quite frankly, he didn't really care. He paid attention to the smaller things that swept him off his feet. The way you would look down and blush whenever somebody else called on you. Or how you would subconsciously tuck your hair behind your ears whenever somebody confronted you, or how you would only make eye contact for a few seconds before fiddling with the ends of your green jumper. It's all the little things that made him fall for you deeper everyday. And sometimes, he couldn't help but let his mind wonder into possible scenarios where you were his girl. He would imagine what you looked like in his sweaters, or both of you sneaking off from lunch to steal kisses behind closed doors. His favorite scenario, however, was both of you going to the astronomy tower at night and letting him look through your sketchbook. It was the simple things that made him swoon. 

So in his wildest imagination, when you two had somehow ended up as partners for Snaps potions class, it toke everything in him to hide his excitement. Over the course of three months you two had become hand in hand best friends. Everyday without fail the both of you made it to the black lake to talk about anything and everything. Everyday he couldn't help but notice each little detail he had imagined before. The specs of honey brown in your green eyes which made them look golden in the sun. Or the slight upturn of your nose, but just small enough to make it look like a button. The way your hair always had the slight under scent of cherry's and watermelon sugar. So by the time winter rolled around, he was utterly obsessed with you.  

Do to his pride and social hierarchy, he was to afraid of his own ego to ask you on a proper date. Although you two had become best friends, not a lot of people knew about your little lake rendezvous.  I mean, after all Draco Malfoy still had a public image to keep. After a long day you'd gone to meet Draco as usual at the lake. After letting out an angry rant of how Snape had given you entirely to much homework and how potter had knocked you off your broom during class you were upset. Draco simply nodes his head. "Draco, is there something upsetting you today?". You asked sweetly. "No". He responded dryly. "Are you sure?"  you persisted. "Actually yes, all you do is complain and I have to sit here and listen to it, you can never deal with problems yourself and quite frankly im sick of it. Why don't you grow up for once and deal with your problems. Here's a newsflash y/n not everybody around you is going to help you so start learning to deal with things on  your own and stop acting above us by complaining about all about your homework when i'm sure I have plenty more than you". 

You stood there in shock almost unable to process this in your brain. Draco had never snapped at you. Sure you were popular at Hogwarts because who doesn't love an American transfer. However it was completely one sided. People were attracted to you but you never said much. In fact you were very careful who you placed your trust with, and Draco Malfoy completely snapped you. "You're unbelievable".  you snarled. The disgust was practically dripping from every word. Draco looked at you almost with shocked expression. "I think it's a bit hypocritical for you to talk about being above someone. And if you didn't want to listen to me all you had to do was leave, don't talk to me about problems Malfoy because you don't know the half of it. I wish I never came to this school, and I most certainly wish i'd never met you". With that you grabbed your bag and walked away. 

Draco sighed, a look of defeat in his eyes. You hadn't called him Malfoy since both of you started out as partners and for some odd reason, it really hurt. He hadn't meant to be that harsh it was just his personality. After his father found out about his son being friends with an American muggle born Slytherin he was disgusted. He forced Draco to call off the friendship and it was the stupidest thing he had ever done. Or even thought about doing.

The truth is Draco didn't care about his fathers validation. Hell he didn't even care about the public's either. He was scared about messing it up. Through all his self destruction, toxic family and lonesomeness there was you. At the beginning of each morning with a "have a good day". And a "sleep well Draco" at the end of each night. It was your overall compassionate and caring nature that brought his heart, and the deepest parts of his soul into an endless void that could only be filled by you. '..there are all types of love in this world, but never the same love twice.'

So here Draco was, hours later in the ungodly times in the night outside of the astronomy tower. He knew you to well to be in your dorm, the constellations and night sky brought a temporary sense of peace. A place where you could both escape the chaoticness and hustle of the world to calm and nothingness. Admiring you from a far as your soft dark brown hair whisked behind your shoulders the crisp night winds. "Im...sorry.." he croaked. You simply breathed in and nodded, not averting your gaze from the sky. "truth is... I was scared. I was scared you'd leave me for someone better and that i'd be easier to reject you before you broke it". Draco made his way over and laid beside you looking at the sky.

"You hurt me. What was fragile that you thought I was going to break? I guess it doesn't matter since you broke me before I could break anything." he let out a deep sigh and a shaky breath. "Me". he stated simply "I didn't want to, but you somehow managed to hold my heart in both of your hands. I don't ask you to love me like I love you, but I ask you to remember. Somewhere inside of me there will always be the person I am tonight. You've consumed every piece of my mind and soul and im terrified you wont love me the way I love you. So do what you will. Break my heart, destroy my soul, consume my mind but i'll I ask is for you to remember the way I love and will always love you, y/n". 

The tears lightly swelled in your eyes. You turned your head to look at Draco. "Draco." You trailed off. "I don't know where you got the stupid idea i'd ever hurt you but rest assured, I will love you with everything until the day I die. Don't you ever think different. Whatever are souls are made of, yours and mine are the same." Draco smiled lightly and looked at you. Really looked at you. The sorrow and happiness in your green eyes with specs of honey brows. The genuine happiness in your somewhat sad smile. For the first time, he looked at you.

His hand gently caressed your face, his body rolling so he was on top of you. As you moved to tuck strands of hair behind your ear his hand gently pulled yours away, before doing it himself. His minty breath fanned your face as both of your lips were dangerously close. His lips ghosted over yours. You slowly moved your hands to his head and tangled your fingers in his hair. Lips both pressed in a chaste kiss and a feeling of contentment waved over you both. It's easy to strip and have sex. But opening up your soul to someone, letting them into your thoughts, fears, dreams. That's when you're truly naked. That's when people can see you.

Authors note ; 

should be a triple update tonight. Not sure for a part two for this but y'all will definitely get more content for the "sk8r girl" and "erich blunt" mini series in about an hour or so! Sorry it's short and I hope all of you are doing well in quarantine lovies.
