(I was sitting comfortably on the couch in front of the burning fireplace, the light of the flames warming my features, my n/l/a eyes glowing in the dark. Even if the room was illuminated, I didn't struggled reading. Once I was acaparated with the scenario, everything felt careless to me. Nothing mattered anymore, but this time...  Something was off...  I couldn't stop thinking about that certain someone, it was a weird feeling. In spite that I didn't know him that good, I still felt like I've known him all my life. It was a feeling that hauted me from the moment I opened my eyes and noticed him. Everything was dragging me to him; everything reminded me of him and I wanted to learn more; about the past.)

(I needed to learn more...  Otherwise I'll just go mad. So I grasped my robe, because it was chillier outside the common room and left.  My shoes were echoing on the empty corridor, and I much as I wanted not to, I couldn't help but walk faster to find him. Draco Malfoy. He never returned to the common room so I searched into the library and a vizualisation came flushing.  The Astronomy Tower of course...  I knew I shouldn't go there, taking into consideration what happened last time. It was past curfew, a lot actually, but my curiosity was disrupting me every second and I had a plan, if, he was actually there, how to get some words out of him.)

(I was nearly to the Great Hall, when I saw Filch's cat's shadow looming before the corner towards me. I accidentally gasped but quickly covered my mouth and mercifully, the enourmous door was opened wide, so I found it as an advantage and hid behind one of them.  My heard's beat quickened when I heard Filch's footsteps. My back was pressed against the wall, the frigidness of it bringing shivers down my spine.  I heard Filch's voice murmuring something to his cat, and I heave a sigh of relief when I saw the light of his oil lamp fade away.  I slowly walked away, from the darkness, my heart begining to beat normally.)

(I runned on my tiptoes, scared that someone might discover me, and I climbed the stairs to the Astronomy tower.  The moment I laid a toe in, a sharp pain pierced through my mind, and I saw a male silhouette running to me.)

Draco: What the hell, Y/n? Why are you here? (He asked quickly, trying to push me outside the tower, but I objected.)

Y/n: I'm not leaving, till you tell me what happened! 

Draco: What are you talking about?  (My vision blurred, as much as I would liked to see his beautiful features. His hand on my arm indicated me he was worried and wanted to get me out of here.)

Y/n: The past Draco! What happened between us! Right now I'm not lea- 

Draco: Fine! But hell not here! (He almost shouted and I smiled not taking into account my actual state.  He helped me carefully walk out of the Astronomy tower and his face was now full of rage, with his brows furrowing.)

Draco: What the fuck Y/l/n!? Why would you do that?  (When he saw my innocent face and guilt writen all over my features his eyes softened and lead me down the stairs.)

Y/n: You didn't trick me, did you? (I said hopefully.)

Draco: No Y/n! For Merlin sakes! You scared the hell out of me!  (My mouth closed instantly at his words and internally smiled, because he obviously cared.  Stealthily we made our way outside, near the lake when I paused)

Y/n: I- 

Draco: Oh, right, sorry my mind went somewhere else. (He cutted me off and I could swear I saw his eyes twinkle in the moon light.  He was too handsome not to stare at; I wanted to ask: what were you thinking so intently?, but kept my mouth shut. Some strands of his tow-coloured hair were incandescended by the gleam of the full moon.)

Y/n: It's alright, as long as you promise me you will tell me everything in the common room... 

Draco POV
Draco: I promise...  (Something flickered in my head, like a lightbulb, reminding me when I last said those two words to her. Everything about her it gives sparkles into my senses, my life. I couldn't lose her...again, because of my stupidness, cowardness. I was too afraid to speak, to express myself, again one of the 'wonderful' things my father taught me since I was a boy.  But she made me a man...  When we entered the common room, we took a seat and I took a deep breath.
This is so hard for me... 

Y/n POV
(It must be hard for him...  I stole a glace at him, his gaze was on the burning flames, thinking of something profoundly.)

Draco: Remember when you told me about that night when I was...drunk and I told you that I though you loved me?  (I nodded, a sign for him to continue. He wasn't mocking, wasn't sarcastic, or insulting as always; he was another Draco...one that I haven't met yet. A sincere and serious one, revealing a painful subject for him.)

Draco: Before I met you, well previous the obliviate, I was just a boy without someone that could show me what love meant; and you were the one that revealed the real me. You taught me how to love Y/n, we were in love. Merlin you turned my word upside down-  (I couldn't believe how opened he'd becomed, how easilly he is to talk to, I smiled warmly, fantasizing about it. I changed him for the better...)

Draco: Then something came up, my brows furrowed waiting impatiently. A girl, from Hogwarts, ruined us. She was selfish and manipulative with her best friend, everyone that surrounded her. She wanted all the happiness for her;  but in the end she realized she wasn't actually happy, because she was forcing them. So she forced me to stay away from you and be with her, and that broke both my heart along with yours. After a couple of weeks, we found a way and pinned her down. We had just two days of happiness together)

Draco: One night I remember very clearly was when we were at a party and Pansy put a polyjuice potion on this random dude to make it look like me you thought that I was cheating on you and then I walked down stairs to see you kissing Blaise which made me mad. You later on found out the truth and that I was in the bathroom and I told you that I never wanted to see you kissing Blaise or anyone ever again and that you were all mine and then I took you back to our room and yes that night was the best night of my life with you Y/n.

Draco: The next day when you told me to head into the Great hall while you went to the bathroom and  you were cursed and obliviated...(He paused)
I wish I was there with you to protect you. (My heart broke for this boy. He's been through so much and I didn't even knew about it. What we lived together, sounded like complete euphoria, heaven, a love that anyone craved.)

(Without hesitation I threw my hands around him and brough him close to me. His body pressed against mine felt like out of this world and when I felt his  hands wrapped on my smaller back, I longed to cry. It was no longer something that I didn't want to show weakness in front of him; no. I didn't want to make him cry too, because I could sense he was struggling.  When he pulled off I gived him a small smile and he bit his lip, still wanting to say me something.)

Draco: I-I wanted to ask you something-
