DISCLAIMER: i forgot to include this in the first chapter, but i own nothing but the plot!
Happy reading!
He looked her up and down; then, maintaining eye contact, "Where's the other two-thirds of the golden trio? Left you behind, did they?" he spat. "No, and quite frankly I don't see why their whereabouts are any of your concern." she dismissed. He read her like a book. "Bloody hell, they really did leave you behind, didn't they?" he realized, concern dripping in his voice. She tore her eyes from his. Don't cry. Don't cry. Don't cry. Knotting her fingers, she exhaled, looking up, and in preparing for her next jab: she took entirely too long.
"I miss you." he said thickly. She swallowed, "You can't say things like that to me." she said looking down at her newly tangled fingers. She saw him re-shuffle his feet, "After everything we've been through? I can't say three measly words to you?" he said in disbelief. She continued to stare at her fingers, twisting and untwisting, "Not those words…or any others that typically come in triplets either." she managed. He closed most of the space between them, so that their toes were just barely touching. She looked in his eyes and he offered, "I guess I should let you on your way, then." He searched her eyes for something. She knew what he was looking for, he wasn't going to find it. She fiddled with her robes, "Please, Malfoy. Just let me pass. Don't make it any more difficult than it has to be." she whispered. He looked up at the ceiling and then back in her eyes, into her, "As you wish." he murmured. Turning to the side, he allowed her to walk by him. Only until she was about five paces ahead did he speak again, "Oh and Granger?" she turned to look at him. He smiled a big, goofy, incomparable Draco smile, "Miss you, I do" and with that he turned and left; leaving her there wondering how she ended up here. She stood there distraught and glossy eyed, watching a piece of herself walk away.
"I miss you too"
AHHHH! chapter 2! I know I'm not the best but I hope you like it so far! Chapter 3 is in the works and I'm thinking about doing some from Draco's perspective in Chapter 4? I don't know! HELP! REVIEW! MUCH LOVE!
PS: What do you think of the new format? Like? Don't like? SO MANY THINGS IM UNSURE ABOUT!
