"Good Afternoon Mrs.Malfoy, I'm sorry for showing up like this." I said.
"Its alright dear, would you like to sit down?" She asked kindly.
"No it's alright, is Draco around?"
"He's in his room would you like me to call him for you?"
"No I'll just go up myself."
"Alright, his rooms the second door on the right."
"Thank you."
I slowly walked up the stairs and hesitated for a second when I got to his door. I took a deep breath and opened it, the room was empty but I could hear the shower going so I sat down on his bed and waited. 10 minutes later the bathroom door opened and Draco walked out fully dressed. He looked up at me and a confused expression appeared on his face.
"Lexii what are you doing here?" He asked.
I didn't answer him, instead I walked forward and grabbed into his left arms and pushed the sleeve up to reveal the Dark Mark. He snatched his arm away from me and gave me an icy yet worried glare.
"You’re a Death Eater." I said, still not believing it.
"Just let me explain." He said.
"Explain this, how could you lie to me like this, how you could steal from my dad and get him locked up, explain how you looked into my family and proved Connor was not my blood brother and all that information you gave to Voldemort!" I yelled. "Explain how you could use me like that."
"I didn't use you!" He argued back.
"Yes you fucking did! You never loved or cared about me, you only used me so you could please Voldemort."
"You want to shut up about your bullshit and actually listen to me?"
"As if you can defend yourself in this situation."
"I didn’t have a choice, I had to do it and the only reason I didn't tell you was because I thought I'd loose you." He said looking me directly in the eyes. "And I didn't know your father would get blamed alright, I had no idea he would go to prison. And lastly I did not use you."
"Prove it."
"Fine."
He walked over to his dresser and began digging through the drawers. At last he walked back to where I stood with something held tightly in his hand. He opened the tiny box in his hand to reveal a silver diamond ring.
"I was going to propose to you some time next year; I bought this ring a few weeks before we broke up." He said. "Do you think I would have wanted to marry you if I was only using you?"
*wow he was going to propose to me, man does my life suck or what?*
"You once asked me what I would do if someone close to me was associated with him, do you remember the answer I gave you?" I asked. "I said I would want them out of my life because people like that couldn’t be trusted, but if they had a good reason I'd forgive them but your reason is pure bullshit."
"I love you Lexii." Draco said taking a few steps forward.
"I have to go."
"I'm telling you I love you does it mean nothing to you?"
*it means everything to me*
"I'm so sorry Lexii, please forgive me." Draco pleaded.
"Draco this isn’t just about me forgiving you, it's about me being able to trust you again." I said. "And I don’t think I can."
I looked up at his face and could feel my strength leaving me. I turned around and ran out the door and could hear Draco running after me. I quickly went down the stairs and ran into his mother.
"Alexis dear would you like to stay for lunch?" She asked. "It will give you and Draco more time to catch up."
"No thank you Mrs.Malfoy, I was just leaving." I said.
"Lexii will you wait." Draco called.
I shook my head and ran out the door to the car, before I could get in Draco reached me and turned me around to face him. He pulled me closer to him and kissed me deeply, I melted in his touch, I had missed him so much. He pulled away and looked at me.
"I love you so much." He whispered.
"And I could never love a Death Eater."
He loosened his grip on me and took a few steps back. The hurt in his eyes was clearly visible and it broke my heart to see him like this. Seeing how much I hurt him had completely erased all my hatred towards him. If only he knew that him being a Death Eater was not my only reason, that I loved him and was willing to look past this but even if I did we still couldn’t be together.
"Draco it's just—" I began.
"You've said enough okay. Just don’t bother." He said coldly, and with that he turned around and slowly made his way back up to his Manor. I stood rooted to that exact spot and watched him walk out of my life for what I hoped was not for good; as a single tear rolled down my cheek.
I got in the car and when I arrived back at my Manor I quickly went up to my room where I remained for the rest of the day wiping the tears from my eyes.
The next morning I was making my way down for breakfast when I heard a familiar voice coming from the entrance hall.
"Of course Draco, come on in." Said my mother.
"What are you doing here?" I asked, once I reached the bottom.
"Ah Alexis your up, well I'll leave you two alone."
My mother walked away leaving Draco and I in a very awkward silence.
"Is there a reason you stopped by?" I asked.
"I had a few of your things so I came to give them back to you." He said coldly.
"Oh, well you can leave the box there and help yourself out." I said.
Draco walked out the front door just as Aaron came down but I was too zoned out to notice until I felt him kiss my neck from behind.
"Fuck off Samuels." I snapped.
"Ohh someone's not to happy this morning, wouldn't have anything to do with the visit from her ex does it?" Aaron asked.
"Burn in hell."
