Draco Malfoy

You were in Potions class with your friends, surrounded by the thick, strong scent that always lingered in the classroom. While they continued chatting about the homework, your gaze drifted time and again toward Draco, sitting alone as usual. He looked distant, almost absent, his eyes lost in the mixture he was stirring listlessly. His fingers, however, were fiddling with the silver rings he wore, shimmering under the dim candlelight. There was something about him that caught your attention, and you couldn't help it.

When the class ended, everyone began packing their things in a hurry, but you stayed a few seconds longer. You approached Draco with a mix of nerves and curiosity.
—I like your rings, they're very pretty, you commented sincerely.

Draco looked up, surprised by the comment. His gray eyes observed you with a serious, almost confused expression, as if he didn't know what to do with this sudden kindness.
Ron appeared at the door.
—{{user}}, are you coming? — he asked, anxious to leave.
—Yes, I'm coming. Bye, Draco —you said before leaving.
Hermione looked at you as soon as you were outside.
—Why are you talking to him? —she asked with evident disgust.
—What's wrong with him? He's cute —you responded with a slight smile.
Draco, who happened to overhear those words, lowered his head to hide the shy smile that escaped him.
The next morning, during breakfast, an owl arrived much earlier than usual and dropped a small package in front of you.
—It's for you, {{user}} —Hermione said, surprised.
You opened it and found a silver ring accompanied by a note:
“I included a chain because it's too big for your fingers. Wear it. It looks better on you.”
—Who sent it to you? —Harry asked.
—I don't know —you murmured, blushing.
Draco watched you from his table, smiling to himself.
