dirty little secret // draco malfoy

*SH MENTION AT END OF CHAPTER TW*
Cassandra's POV

I wake up to the loud slamming of a large door, making me jolt up. I check my surroundings, remembering I fell asleep in Draco's bed. I hear the shower running in the bathroom attached to his room, assuming Draco was in there.

"Narcissa!" I hear Lucius shout.

I hear heavy footsteps stomp up the marble stairs and quickly scramble out of Draco's bed onto the chair at his desk. It would probably look so wrong if I was found in Draco's bed. I hear the shower turn off and the bathroom door swing open. I turn around and Draco rushes out with a towel wrapped around his waist; I get flustered at the sight of him shirtless. He runs up to his door, pressing his ear up against it; he looks over to me and motions for me to do the same. I run over and put my ear up against the door, being able to hear his parents' conversation more clearly.

"Voldemort is dead" Lucius, says out of breath.

Chills run down my body as hopeful thoughts fill my mind.

"But how Lucius?" Draco's mother asks, shocked.

"Harry Potter killed him..Harry Potter survived" Lucius responds.

My hand slaps over my mouth as tears begin to immediately run down my face; tears of happiness. I turn to Draco with the biggest smile on my face; he looks at me with a small grin then I hug him tightly, not wanting to ever let go. He hugs me back and kisses the top of my head. My brain is overloading with joy, relief, and most significantly euphoria.

"I told you everything was going to be alright" he whispers into my ear.

I pull away from the hug and stare into his light, icy eyes. I crash my lips into his and smile as he kisses me back roughly, cupping my cheeks with both of his hands. Suddenly his door slams open, revealing an upset Lucius Malfoy. Draco pulls away from me and lightly pushes me back. Lucius stares at the both of us with confusion and frustration on his face.

"I'll be gone for a while; you need to take charge of the manor Draco, I expect there to be no nonsense going on while I'm gone" Lucius sternly says to Draco.

Lucius then looks at me with confusion over anger surprisingly. He slams the door shut and we hear his footsteps stomp down the stairs.

"Will he be um-"

"Don't worry about it" Draco cuts me off.

I quickly raise then drop my eyebrows and sit back on his bed as he walks over to his dresser, picking out fresh clothes. I need to write to Fred and George; I need to write to everyone I can really.

"Do you have parchment and a pen I could use?" I ask Draco.

"Yeah but it's midnight, send your letter off tomorrow" he says, pointing over to his desk.

I sit down in his desk chair and open up the drawer attached to his desk, finding a stack of parchment and a couple of pens.

~~~

George and Fred,

I'm safe right now at the Malfoy Manor with Draco. I just need to know that you guys and everyone else is safe. I have a lot to explain to you and I hope we can talk about everything in person soon.

Lots of Love,
Cassandra, the Gryffyinqueen

I smile at my signature then neatly fold the letter up. I place it in the corner of Draco's desk then sit in silence for a moment.

"What happens now? Now that Voldemort is dead" I ask Draco.

"I-I don't know.." Draco trails off.

I walk over to his bed and sit down on the edge again as he walks to his bathroom then stays in there for a while. I just now remember Hogwarts is destroyed with all of my belongings included; all I have is the robes on my back. Draco steps out of the bathroom wearing a black tee shirt and his boxer briefs.

"Are you going to sleep in here with me tonight?" he asks me.

"Your mother wouldn't like it I bet" I respond, scratching the back of my neck.

"Please, she's excited about you" he laughs.

I smile and look down at the ground.

"Well if I'm gonna sleep in here can I borrow a shirt or something, all of my clothes and stuff are destroyed" I bite my lip, looking down.

He quickly rummages in his dresser and throws me a forest green tee shirt.

I grab it then turn my back away from him, dropping my robes along with my blouse. Once I'm in only my bra and skirt a cold pair of hands wraps around my waist.

"I missed you" Draco whispers into my ear.

A smile creeps across my face and I lean back into his body that was hovering behind mine.

"I won't fuck up this time, I promise you" he whispers to me, kissing my collar bone.

He leaves me alone to get into the shirt he gave me and I do so. I turn around once I'm dressed in only my panties and his tee shirt then make my way into bed with him. I lay down on the right side of him and rest my head on his shoulder, tracing shapes onto his chest with my left arm.

"No, no, what did you do?" Draco grabs my arm in a panic.

He pulls my left arm out and sits himself up, analyzing the scars all over my death mark.

"Draco, don't worry everything's fine now" I say, attempting to pull my arm back.

He grabs a tight hold of my arm, still staring at my mutilated skin. I can see his jaw visibly clench as he holds back tears.

He drops my arm and grabs my chin with his right hand, lifting my face up to his.

"I told you to never do that again" he says, still holding my face.

"I'm sorry" I shamefully apologize.

"Don't say sorry..just don't do it" he responds, pulling his hand away from my face.

He pulls my arm up to his face and kisses down my forearm slowly. He lets go of my wrist then we both lay down again; he pulls his covers over the both of us. He holds my waist close, my back facing him as I lay on my side.

"Goodnight Cassandra" he quietly says.

"I love you Draco" I whisper to him.

"I love you too" he responds, pulling me closer into his embrace.
