Dracos POV:

It's extremely late when I feel something move next to me. I slowly open my eyes due to my tiredness and look towards were the movement came from.

Only to be extremely shocked when I realize that it's Stoneshire. She's rustling around in her sleeping bag with tears dripping down her cheeks at a rapid pace. I can tell she's screaming, but I can't hear it. Probably a silencing charm. I though I heard her wiper something before I fell asleep.

Then surprising myself I sit up and lean towards her. Slightly shaking her awake. She opens her eyes and jolts up still bawling her eyes out. She slowly calms down realizing her surroundings. She looks at me and her eyes go wide. She removes the charm with her wand then starts whispering soft apologies for waking me up.

"I'm so so so sorry I told them to lock me up in another room or something so I didn't disturb anyone, because I can't control them they always ya happen the stupid dreams every night, I'm so sorry I-" she continues to ramble but I put my hand on hers and look at her surprising both of us.

Y/N's POV:

I continue to ramble embarrassing apologies till he puts his hand on mine. I'm taken back a little bit and not only because it's Malfoy but because a panic attack didn't happen just a few tears escape my eyes remembering the dream but nothing else. His hand almost calming me.

It feels, nice.

"It's fine you're ok."

"I-"

"Do you want to talk about it."

"N-no, well, ya no I- I don't want to think about it."

"You said the dreams happen a lot."

"Every night." I say wiping a tear.

"Has anyone ever helped you with them."

"I haven't told anyone, pansy found out from my screaming but she just laughs at me and Dumbledore just taught me the silencing charm."

"I used to have nightmares when I was little, but my mom helped with them she would sit with me and rub my back till I fell asleep."

"Well I don't think pansy is gonna be rubbing my back anytime soon so I'll just deal with it."

"I could help."

"W-what."

"I mean like you can't tell anyone, I have a reputation but while we're sleeping here I could help, and see if it works for you."

"I-I uh, wait really, you would help me, no one really h-helps me with this stuff. Not that I'm saying you have to I know you hate me, you've made that very clear and I'm not trying to push you I just-"

"It ok I'm the one who offered." He says cutting me off.

"I-ok."

"Just lay down on your stomach." He says and I do just that.

He gets in a comfortable position next to me in case he falls asleep and then he, gently, places a hand on my back. I feel him start to rub circles on my back with his fingers.

"This is how my mom did it is this ok?" He asks kindly.

"Yah, and Malfoy, thank you, I know tomorrow you are going to go back to hating me, and that's ok I get it, I kinda hate myself to, I just want you to know that this means a lot."

I feel his hand get tense for a moment then he go back to the circles.

"No problem."

And for the first time in a long time I fall back sleep, and for the first time in a year it was a dreamless one.

Only what I didn't know was that a certain blond boy is admiring me as he makes sure to keep me calm. His heart, strangely to him, fluttering at the sight of the newly peaceful young girl before him.
