I wanted to stay in his arms forever.
He clutched me tight, "I love you so much." he whispered. At this point, he didn't care who was watching - I obviously meant as much to him as he meant to me.
"I love you too, more than anything. Please don't leave me." I cried.
"I'm not leaving you. If I could choose to, I'd stay here with you forever and you know it. Please, please, please don't cry." He gently wiped my tears and kissed me. I kissed him back, over and over again.
Ruining the moment, an announcement was called telling all students to get their belongings ready for the train ride back, which drew us apart.
"Listen," he said, "meet me on the train platform, wait and look for me - I'll do the same for you. We'll sit together, okay?"
I smiled, "Okay. I'll see you soon," I lightly kissed him then hurried off, not wanting to miss any time with him. I rushed up to the Hufflepuff common room, colliding with Cedric.
"Where are you off to in such a hurry then?" He laughed.
"Need to get my stuff, don't want to be late, right?" I grinned.
"Ah, I see. Well, I'll see you on the train, right? I'll probably be sitting with Oliver and people, that okay?" That worked out perfectly for me.
"Good... I mean, yeah. That's fine, I'll find someone to sit with."
"Right. Okay. See you later then, missy." he ruffled my hair and carried on walking.
Luckily, when I woke up I sorted out most of my possessions. All I had to do now was double check and I was ready. I got my case and my bag with little Socks sleeping in comfortably and scurried out.
I ran down the stairs to the main hall, I was just in time for the meeting before we all left.
I didn't bother listening, Dumbledore was just repeating the same speech he does every end of year. I sat with my head slumped in my hands, wishing that time would go by faster.
Thankfully not long after, everyone stood up and I gathered it was time to leave. We exited the hall in our House groups, which made it difficult for me to wait for Draco; Hufflepuffs were second, Slytherins were fourth.
I hung around until Ravenclaws and Slytherins came out, and I saw him talking to Crabbe and Goyle - great. I'd hated them since the first year; they were annoying, immature and complete fuckers... which was how most people saw Draco, but I didn't see him like that, at all.
He signalled me to go outside and wait for him there, I nodded and went.
I waited outside until practically everyone was on the train and he slowly came up to me from behind, gently grasping my waist.
"Quickly, before it closes." he whispered, he took my hand and pulled me on.
He searched around for somewhere to sit and rapidly found somewhere. Once he sat down, I lingered around a little bit before I followed, to make it less obvious we were together.
I slid the glass door open as I shyly walked in, then closed it and pulled the blinds down so no one could see us, he did the same for the window facing outside. I was finally with him with no worries.
Since the last few weeks with him had passed, I realised I was finally happy.
