The Boy Who Fell in Love

Chapter 5- Quidditch

This morning I woke up just in time for breakfast. I looked over and saw Ginny putting on her robe. "Everyone is already in the great hall eating. I was waiting for you." She smiled at me. She was always so sweet to me and treated me like a big sister.

I got up and hurried to get ready and both Ginny and I rushed to get breakfast before Ron ate everything. "Morning everyone." I said sitting down next to Ron. Everyone looked up at me and smiled. Hermione said Morning.

As I was eating my breakfast I would take small glances at Draco at the Slytherin table. I caught him looking at me a couple times but he would look away. He looked sad and just sat there staring at his food.

"Let's go to Potions." Hermione said giving me a shove. We all got up and said bye to Ginny and headed to class. When we got there we all went to our seats and I waited for Draco. He sat down next to me a few minutes later but didn't say a word. I didn't know what to say so I just faced forward.

"I waited for you last night." Draco leaned in and whispered while we were taking down notes. I looked at him with wide eyes as I remembered I forgot to tell him I was going to the library last night.

"Oh my god I'm so sorry! I forgot to tell you I was going to the library with the trio to see if there was anything about what happened to my parents." I said feeling really guilty. "I am really sorry Draco."

He just shrugged and went back to his notes. A few seconds later, "Did you find anything? About your parents." He asked.

"Sort of. We find this news article about what happened to them but there was about 3 pages ripped out." I said while finishing my notes.

He looked at me weird. "That's strange. Why would someone rip out pages?"

"I'm not sure. Harry thinks someone might have killed them and didn't want anyone to find out who they are." I said with a shrug.

"Hmm do you think Dumbledore would know anything about what happened?" He said not looking up from his notes. I looked at him,

"I never really thought of asking him. But if he knew he would tell him." I said.

Draco shrugged while closing his notes. I did the same and put them in my bag. "You gonna come cheer me on tonight at the quidditch match?" He said in a hopeful way.

"First game of the season? Wouldn't miss it. I'm your biggest fan Malfoy, you know that." I said with a smile and giving him a little shove. He smiled at me and said bye and went off to his next class. I caught up with Hermione and we went to our next class.

Today's quidditch match was Slytherin vs Ravenclaw. Even tho I wasn't in either of those houses it was the first game of the season so every house was there to watch. It was a little chilly out so I wore my favorite jumper, which happened to be Draco's, and a Gryffindor scarf and hat.

I was looking around to see who was all there and i noticed Draco's dad, Lucius Malfoy, sitting by Snape in the teacher seating. I never really met the guy but he always creeped me out. Only things that I know about him is what Draco had told me and they weren't very good so I chose to stay away from him.

Half way through the game Slytherin was winning and Draco was playing great. Through out the game I always felt like someone was watching me but when I looked around I didn't see anyone so I thought I was just being paranoid.

As I was trying to shrug off the weird feeling Draco suddenly fell off his broom and landed hard on the ground. Everyone gasped and suddenly, without thinking, I got up and ran to him. As soon as I got to him I kneeled next to his head.

"Draco! Are you ok?" I said brushing the hair out of his eyes with my hand. He turned his head towards me and smile. He had a few scratch's on his head but nothing too bad.

"At least someone cares about me." He said with a sly laugh.

I was confused about what he meant until I looked up and saw his dad just sitting there. His face more angry then worried about his son. It made me kinda mad.

Pomfrey slightly pushed me out of the way to look at Draco. She ordered Hagrid to carry Draco to the Hospital wing. Pomfrey said I could come with if I would like. I nodded and followed them.

I sat with Draco in his bed. He had a couple scratches that didn't need much attention and a couple bruised ribs that should be healed soon. He was obviously feeling better since he was making jokes and laughing.

I was sitting with him for about an hour and his father didn't come see him once. I thought the reason was because I was in there.

"Do you want me to go so you can see you dad?" I asked feeling kinda guilty. He quickly put his hand on mine.

"No! Please don't go." He said. "He probably already left." I nodded and gave him a smile. He still had his hand on mine and started to rub his thumb on my skin. I felt butterfly's in my stomach when he did that. I was hoping he wouldn't stop.

I cleared my throat, "again I'm really sorry about last night I swear I was gonna tell you." I still felt so guilty.

"No it's okay. You had a good reason." He said smiling with his hand still on mine rubbing his thumb. "You can make up for it tomorrow. Since it's a little too cold tonight." He winked.

I laughed and nodded. He looked at me like a lightbulb went off in his small brain. "Nice jumper Darkwood. Where'd you find that?" He laughed taking his hand away from mine to fix his hair. Cmon just a little longer. I thought. But then I looked down.

"Funny Malfoy. I forgot I had it and I packed it to give it back to you but I realized I only packed one of my own jumpers and I wore that yesterday. Do you want it back?" I said starting to take it off.

He grabbed my arm and stopped me. "No no you can keep it. It looks better on you." We both laughed.

It was getting late and Pomfrey said Draco was good to leave so we said our goodbyes and headed off to our commons.

When I got to mine there were some 7 years by the fire and a couple 2 years playing chess. I headed up to my dorm and saw Ginny and Hermione studying together.

"Well nice of you to finally join us." Ginny laughed looking up from her book. Hermione put her book down and looked at me.

"Why are you looking at me like that?" I laughed putting on some night shorts.

"Are you kidding? You literally flew to Draco when he got hurt and didn't leave his side." Hermione laughed.

"He's my best friend. If it happened to any of you I would do the same." I said getting into bed.

"Mhm okay Y/N. But it's kinda obvious he feels the same. Go for it but be careful. He always wants daddy's approval and the way Mr Malfoy was looking at you when you ran to Draco didn't seem like he liked you much." Ginny shrugged.

"What? I never even met him. I don't know why he wouldn't like me." I said confused. They both shrugged and turned off the lights and went to bed. I closed my eyes and drifted to sleep.

"Mary get Y/N and hide now!" My father screamed. Suddenly my mom burst in my room and shut the door. She picked me up and grabbed her wand and said a spell I wasn't sure what it was. I heard my father scream in pain outside my door while he said the same spell my mother did and a light flew towards me.

My mom put me in my crib and put her wand up. Suddenly my door flung open. I couldn't see who it was. Everything got foggy except for my mother now down on her knees crying in pain as light hit her.

"MALFOY!" She screamed. And she started to fade away.

I jumped up sweaty and breathy heavy, my heart racing super fast. I looked around realizing I was in my dorm and saw the girls fast asleep.

What the bloody hell was that? A dream? A memory? Why did she scream Malfoy?
