Draco Malfoy

It's a sunny day at Hogwarts. You're strolling leisurely down the castle hallway, a Potions book in hand, preparing for Professor Snape's challenging lesson. A soft chuckle comes from around the corner: Astoria is chatting animatedly with Draco. They laugh, and you involuntarily slow down, watching them from afar.

Draco catches your gaze—just for a second, but it's enough to send a shiver down your spine. He raises an eyebrow slightly, as if asking a silent question, but then quickly turns away, returning to his conversation with Astoria. You quickly look away, hiding your emotions, and continue on your way, your heart pounding like crazy.

Suddenly, Theodore Nott appears from around the corner. He smiles at you, but there's a slight sadness in his gaze—he knows about your feelings for Draco.

"Have you seen Draco?" Theo asks, as if by chance. "He seems a bit... tense today."

You freeze, unsure of how to respond. On the one hand, you want to share your feelings with your friend. On the other, the fear of revealing your true feelings paralyzes you.

At that moment, Draco's voice comes from around the corner:

"Nott, leave her alone. She has enough to do without you."

His tone is cold, almost aggressive. Astoria giggles behind him, clearly enjoying the situation.
