(y/n) - your name

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Want to watch a movie princess?" Draco asks (y/n) as she was laying on his bed while reading, him laying his head on her back as she controls a book above him for him to read comfortably.

"What movie?"

"I have a few muggle horror films I have hidden away in my wardrobe."

"Like a marathon?" she asks him, looking over her shoulder as he nods, turning to face her with a smile. It was late at night so the two of them were whispering to not wake anyone up in the house. "Ok!" the Slytherin got up and dashed for the movies excitedly while the Hufflepuff summoned a tv, enchanting it so they could play the movies on it. The couple loved having horror movie marathons together, a staple of common interest they developed when they had their first Christmas together at Hogwarts.

Draco moved to put the first movie in, keeping the volume low like (y/n) showed him how and the both of them snuggle up into bed together. He held her tight in front of him as she lay on his chest, squeezing her every now and then which earns him light giggles. He leans his chin on top of her head, his fingers gently brushing against his marks that had started to fade on his Puff's skin as she sat between his legs. She summoned some snacks for the both of them to eat, the boy enjoying her little quirks while they watched the movie.

He loved how she would complain about how dumb the characters were, what they should be doing or guessing what might happen next if she wasn't apologising and shutting her mouth. "I don't mind princess... you don't need to stop." she gives him a sheepish smile, saying something about the movie every now and then through the movies they watched until he noticed how she was nodding off. "(y/n), let's sleep. Come on."

Draco helps (y/n) sit up as she rubs her eyes, sending everything back to where they came from before she let her boyfriend tuck her beneath the blankets and slipped in behind her. He pulled her back tight against his chest, holding her close as he buried his face against her neck. He stayed awake until he knew his Puff had fallen asleep, moving to entwine their hands together before sleeping with her.

~~~~~~~~

The new morning sun rays peeked through the blinds as the open balcony doors let in the cool breeze that made the curtains flutter. Draco breathes in as he slowly wakes up, curling into (y/n) as he hugged her tightly. He hears her sigh out softly, a smile bracing his lips as he buries his head against her neck and nuzzles her shoulder. He peeks over to see her still fast asleep with his arm around her shoulder, the other over her stomach with their hands entwined. He presses a kiss against her shoulder, quickly leaning back when she groans softly and turns around in his arms. He chuckles lightly as she presses her face against his chest, wrapping his arms around her to hug her when he heard knocking on his bedroom door.

"Draco?" Narcissa calls out softly, waiting until her son opened the door. "Morning dear, but have you seen (y/n)?" she peers over at her son to see the said girl fast asleep in his bed and she smiles when he tries to come up with a lie.

"She had a nightmare and couldn't sleep so I let her stay with me for the night." Draco quickly says, hoping that his mother doesn't pry any further against his lie and he breathes out in relief when she nods. Narcissa obviously picked up on the lie but she wouldn't scare her son with it. It was obvious that Draco and (y/n) were more than friends, more than he let her on. Especially during dinner time when the two would sit so close together and bicker quietly and it made her happy. She saw how happy her son was with this special girl,

"Alright, now remember that tomorrow night is the New Year celebration so I wanted to alter a dress I got for (y/n). Let her know to come to see me any time today when she wakes up."

"Yes, will do mother." Draco moves to close his bedroom door and that's when (y/n) woke up, rubbing her eyes as she leaned up. She blushes seeing how he walked back to her with his messy hair that was spiked up everywhere, his shirt riding up. He smirks seeing how cute his Puff looks, her yawning with her messy bed hair before she hides beneath the blanket to block out the light. "Come on princess. Time to wake up now." she whines out as he sat next to her on the bed, pulling the blanket up to see her cover her head with a pillow. She looks at him as he moves her hair back, caressing her cheek as she snuggled against a pillow.

"I don't wanna...."

"Mother has a dress for you tomorrow evening."

"What's happening tomorrow evening?"

"There's a wizarding event for New Year that happens every year. Not a lot of people go since it's a muggle thing but she thought you might like to go."

"That sounds fun..."

"Great but now you need to get up princess." Draco laughs as he holds onto (y/n)'s arms and pulls her up to sit on the bed. She groans out unhappily, whining about wanting to sleep more but she stretches and gets out of bed. "I'll meet you downstairs ok." he presses a kiss to his Puff's neck, letting her grumpily walk into her bedroom to freshen up and change as he walked to his bathroom with an amused smile.

(y/n) brushed her teeth and got cleaned up, wearing simple leggings and a long mid-thigh shirt before leaving her bedroom to head downstairs. She went into the dining room to already see Draco sitting there with his mother opposite him, breakfast spread out elegantly on the table. It never ceased to amaze her the amount of food there was and she sometimes felt bad when she didn't eat a lot of it.

"Morning..." she whispers, still sleepy and her boyfriend quickly got up to pull out her chair for her, tucking her to the table once she sat down before he sat back in his seat next to her and she thanked him.

"Dear, I have a dress I would like for you to try on."

"Yeah, Draco told me. I can go with you after breakfast." The said boy frowns that he doesn't get to spend time with his girlfriend, staring at her as she just blinks at him in confusion. "What?"

"You'll be in mothers dressing room the entire day. I won't be able to spend time with you."

"We've been together the entire time so far. I thought you want to have a break?"

"Why would I want to take a break from you?" Draco genuinely asks in confusion and the kids hear his mother chuckling softly behind her hand.

"You can stay with us in the dressing room if you think you won't get bored." Narcissus says, her son nodding happily at the news. He loved spending time with his mother in her dressing room, watching her make spectacular clothes and beautiful designs for fashion. It piqued his interest to see how pieces get out together, to see what fits and what doesn't. He liked having a neat appearance but he also loved being fashionable. The three of them soon finished eating, the ladies heading to the dressing room and Draco grabbing a book from his bedroom to read in the dressing room. 

(y/n) was in awe of the different outfits that were in the room, mannequins dolled up in extravagant pieces. "Goddamn..." Narcissa smiles, seeing the awe on the little one's face.

"This one..." she heads to a dress that was hanging up on a dressing divider. "is yours (y/n)." It was a simple off-shoulder black tea dress with a subtle velvet bow tied to the back and black gems littering the border.

"It's beautiful!" the girl jumps happily seeing the gown, rushing over to touch the fabric. "Can I try it on?"

"Of course dear. Just behind the divider for you there." the Hufflepuff rushes over to change behind the dressing divider while Narcissa asked her questions. "How is your stay here so far?"

"Wonderful. I feel at home here..." the mother frowns lightly at that.

"What about your parents?" (y/n) goes rigid at the question behind the divider. She wasn't sure how much Draco had told his mother about her or what she needed to lie about.

"I... I don't have parents..." the girl whispers and Narcissa frowns deeper at that. Her son never told her that, all he told her was that his friend preferred staying at Hogwarts during the holidays... "I live by myself in an apartment I own..."

"But you are not of age-"

"-I've run away from so many child services. I hate staying with them so I'd rather have my freedom instead." (y/n) says, lies spilling easily.

Narcissa didn't like the idea of a child living by herself, to see her grow up too quickly in this world to be able to make sure she can get by on a daily basis. It must be so hard for her. "You are always welcome here (y/n). If you need anything, you can always ask me. You have a place here." the girl smiled at the woman's kind words, blinking away her tears before she steps out from behind the divider when she managed to put the dress on.

"In that case, maybe can you help me with the zipper? Please..." the older woman smiles, helping the young girl with the zipper when her dressing room door opens to reveal her son. Draco walked into the room holding a book when he was stopped by the doorway, his eyes wide as he saw (y/n) turn around to face him with a smile. He swoons seeing how pretty she looked in the dress, a loopy smile on his face with hearts in his eyes that his mother could clearly see.

"What do you think Draco?" Narcissa asks, the girl spinning around in the dress. "Doesn't she look lovely?"

"She looks beautiful..." the girls snicker seeing how starstruck the boy was, his tongue tied as he struggled to find a seat to sit down. (y/n) giggled and turned away with flushed cheeks, looking over at her boyfriend every now and then to see him looking at her instead of reading his book while his mother fixed her dress for her.
