Victoria paused she knew if she walked out there mad at him, all the girls would instantly try to comfort him. She turned around, and gave him a discouraging look that made his heart sink. He suddenly had the thought of her leaving him, and he instantly ran up to her and hugged her.
"I'm sorry, I'm just a jerk sometimes. Please don't leave me Victoria"
" I know, it's ok" She stroked his hair, and thought how this was a weird outcome. Victoria felt weird when she thought she heard him sniffle a little and pulled away to see a tear roll down his cheek. "Draco I'd never dream of leaving you" She smiled at the thought of what she said, them being together forever. She wrapped her arms around his neck, but used one of her hands to gently wipe away his tear. "Let's go eat"
" I can't go like this, let me wash up I'll meet you there" He briefly kissed her and walked towards the lavatories. Victoria walked into the room and sat at their usual spot everyone looked at her in shock.
"Where's Malfoy? Did you break up? You poor thing.." one of the girls said all to quickly for her to respond.
"No, he's just washing up a bit" As if on cue he came and sat down next to her. Victoria looked at the girl who had talked to her, she was now looking down in disappointment. Under the table Victoria put her hand on Draco's leg and began to lightly caress it. He looked at her and smiled, before beginning to grab some food for them. They ate the feast and left to get there things. Victoria was still tired from yesterdays diploma ceremony, she was sad to leave Hogwarts but happy to get on with her life.
Victoria followed Draco out the front gate , he told her that his helpers would get her luggage for her. Draco's mother had sent a car to pick them up, Victoria only agreed because she stilled hadn't tried to apparate, since she had been studying advanced magic she had been allowed to take the exam early. She turned around and looked at Hogwarts for the last time.
Draco had fallen asleep and was leaning against her. She drew out a long breath and began to stroke his hair.
"What's wrong?" he whispered tiredly
"Nothing, it's just my apartment is so far away from yours...and everything will be different now"
"Don't worry..."he said wearily
"Don't worry? What's that suppose to mean?"
"Exactly what I said, Don't worry...Victoria just stop thinking about it."
"I can't"she mumbled. Draco Put his hand over her's and she instinctively laced her fingers with his like they had done so often. He went to lay his head on her shoulders but changed his mind, and instead gently brushed his lips against her neck. It immediately sent butterflies through her stomach. He had a sense about her, he could tell when he could do something or if he should stop. His lips trailed down to her collar bone, he could feel her let out a jagged breath. To him it was a good thing it meant she could not concentrate not even on her breathing. Draco spun his head towards the sound of the driver putting the window up so they could have privacy. He turned back at Victoria who had begun to giggle. She put her hand on his face and gently stroked it, she cherished him and all they joy he brought her. Victoria snuggled closer to him and rested her face on his chest, the sound of his heart made her relax. Draco kissed her hair,
"We're almost there" He said and kissed her hair again. He heard her sigh softly and he wrapped his arms around her and pulled her closer. He suddenly thought that he had never seen his parents as close as they were, and could only remember a few times when they would talk when it wasn't something formal. He let out a sigh of relief when they finally got there, it was an enormous house not at all like an apartment.
