You sat down in the Ravenclaw common room with a sigh. You had been back at Hogwarts for 2 months now and everything was almost completely rebuild.

The war was hectic seeing that you are dating a death eater... well are... Draco Malfoy has been ignoring you for two months. But maybe that was better... you didn't even want to talk to him to be honest. You heard what happened to Hermione Granger at his manor... a mudblood, that he would ever come back to you was just a dream! How could he possibly still like a filthy mudblood after everything.

'Y/N... what's up? You looked sad.'

You looked up and saw your best friend Luna. She sat down besides you.

'I've given up...'

'On what?'

'On trying to talk to Draco... It best if I just don't talk to him. How pathetic am I to think that he'll ever come back to a filthy mudblood like me.' You sighed.

'Well, he loved you before all of this... then you were also a muggle-born. Nothing changed about that.'

You sighed.

'I know but... a lot has changed during the war. I have changed during the war, he has changed during the war. Our differences might be to big. I mean, he was a death eater-'

'Against his will.' She interrupted you.

That was true.. even though he was proud to be chosen in the beginning.

'His family will never except me and I think that after everything that happened he just hates me.'

'He never hated you for being the person you are! You can't just think this all of a sudden! Even Draco doesn't work like this.'

'Maybe he does! Maybe my dirty blood isn't good enough for his pure blood! Maybe we aren't meant to be... I don't hate him for hating me.'

Luna couldn't really understand. Yes, Draco first had a problem with you being a mudblood, but then that ended when he fell in love with you. Why would he suddenly hate you?

'What changed that makes him hate you? Your blood is the same, you are the same.'

'This whole war changed everything Luna! I'm not the same person, you are dating Neville, Fred is dead, dobby is dead, Hermione and Ron are together, Ginny and Harry are. You know why all these people are together?! Because they are on the same side... they have a bloodline that almost matches. What if Draco picked up some nasty information, whether it's true or not, about muggles or muggle-born and he now hate me?! What do I do then?!'

'You never know unless you ask him.' Luna responded.

You got up and walked towards one of the windows. You stared outside.

'It isn't that easy... I can't just talk to him.'

'He's your boyfriend! Of course you can. You just go up to him and ask: do you hate me?'

'I can't just ask him if he hates me!'

Luna got up with a furious sigh.

'You're making this way more complicated then you have to! Just talk to the guy! He came back for a reason! He is seriously picked on by people because he choose the dark side! If anything he needs you right now!'

You turned around and looked at her.

'Draco gets bullied?'

'Where Draco first bullied people... he's now the victim of bullying. Y/N, you might think he hates you... but I think that isn't what's going on. Something else might be going on. All I'm saying is that he could really use someone. Not Blaise, not Pansy... you.'

'But what if he really doesn't want me to help him?'

'Then he tells you that Y/N! It's not that difficult. Talk to him tomorrow.'

You sighed and nodded.

At the same time Draco sat down in the Slytherin common room. Blaise sat down besides him and Draco looked at his inactive dark mark.

'This is just great... I shouldn't have come back.'

'It was a good thing you came back, you just have to do it right.'

'I'm doing it right. I'm following my classes.'

'That's not what I meant.' Blaise sighed.

Draco sighed even louder and growled.

'If you're going to start about Y/N again I'm going to turn insane.'

'Draco... you've been ignoring her for 2 months.'

'In my defense... she's also ignoring me.'

'Because she knows that you won't talk to her.'

'No because she hates me... because I'm a death eater.'

Blaise sighed and sat back a bit. 'It's true Blaise. Do you really think she still love me after everything that happened?! I let death eater into the castle, Dumbledore was murdered because of those actions. I fought with death eaters, almost killed Harry in the room of requirement, I hugged Voldemort...'

'So? You didn't have a choice Draco. She loves you, she could have broken up with you during the war, but she didn't! She could have ran after you in the train, yelled at you and tell you to leave you alone. But when you, I'm that train, looked into her eyes, turned around and walked away, she didn't do anything. She wanted to give you time.'

Draco looked at his best friend.

'You don't get it do you?! I fought with the people who were against muggle-born students, I've tried to murder Dumbledore, you know how much he meant to her. I watched hoe they tortured a muggle-born and I didn't do anything! I'm basically a monster in her eyes... and I totally get her. I could have chosen for her... and I didn't.'

Blaise sighed and rubbed his face. He couldn't believe Draco right now.

'You'll never know unless you talk to her.' He claimed.

'Have you ever thought about the fact that I maybe don't want to know?! Maybe I just don't want to know how badly she hates me! Maybe I just don't want to hear her speak the words: you're a traitor and a monster and I never want to see you again. Maybe I don't want to know how she waited for me every day but I didn't even choose for her in the end. I don't want to know Blaise!'

Blaise looked at him.

'Draco... you need this girl. She was the only one who made you happy the past 4 years. Ever since you gave her a chance at the yule ball... don't tell me that she wasn't on your mind every day during the war.'

Draco looked at the other Slytherins who walked in and whispered things about him and laughed.

'You used to make fun of people and bully them... but now you are bullied. You need her, you know you do. You need your mudblood.'

The words "your mudblood" made him smile. Because that was exactly what you were... his mudblood. Not just a mudblood, no, his mudblood... only his.

'See, that's what you call her, isn't it?'

Draco nodded and shoved his hand in his pocket. He got out a picture of you two. A picture of you two, dancing at the yule ball. The night where it all started.

'Draco, you don't want to loose her, you don't want to loose this. Talk to her tomorrow.'

Draco sighed and nodded.

-

The next day you and Luna came back from Herbology. You sighed and clenched your books against your chest.

'Don't worry Y/N, Draco isn't that hard to find.'

'It's just... I don't know how I will react. I haven't heard his voice once since the war. I missed him so much.'

'Don't worry. Look there he is.'

'Go on Draco, talk to her.' Blaise said to Draco.

Draco sighed and put his hand in the pockets of his pants. He nervously walked towards you. You looked at him and grabbed your books a bit better.

'Draco... please don't walk away, can we talk?' You asked.

Draco nodded. Luna and Blaise walked away. You looked at the white haired boy who you missed so much.

'Draco... do you hate me?' You asked while tears came up your eyes.

He looked at you in confusion.

'Hate you? Of course not.' He stated.

His voice sounded like music in your ears. You missed his voice... his hair... his eyes.

'Then... then why are you ignoring me?' You chocked.

Draco heard the pain in your voice.

'I thought you hated me! Why would I hate you?' He asked.

'Because I'm a mudblood! Why would I hate you?'

'Because I'm a death eater... Y/N, I never hated you because you were a Muggle-born.why would I suddenly mind. I thought you didn't want to have anything to do with me.'

'Draco, I love you... I could have broken up with you if I would mind that you were a death eater. These past two months were killing me. I saw you but I didn't dare to talk to you. I thought I would never get to talk to you... never get to look at you and your eyes as silver as the silver in the Slytherin colors. I thought I lost you. And I heard from Luna that people are bullying you and I've been so worried about you.'

A tear rolled down your cheek. Draco looked at you and stepped closer and looked deeply into your eyes. Then he closed the distance, kissing you gently with his soft but little bit forceful lips.

The lips you missed so much. You dropped your books on your feet and didn't even care. You kissed him back. The feelings you had came back only they were twice as powerful. Draco placed his hand on your cheek and you deepened the kiss. You pulled back because of lack of air. More tears rolled down your cheek as his forehead was placed against yours.

'Why are you crying... we're fine, I'm fine, I love you Y/N.'

'I missed you so much.' You spoke before hugging him.

'Don't worry, I'll never leave you.'

You stepped back and he gave you a short kiss. He helped you pick up your books. You held them in one hand and tangled your fingers with his. Together you walked towards the castle.
