Draco Malfoy X Male Reader

Title: A Quiet Moment

The flickering light of the fireplace cast a warm, golden glow across the cozy dorm room, creating a serene atmosphere that contrasted sharply with the often tumultuous world outside. The room was a sanctuary, a place where the chaos of Hogwarts seemed to melt away, and tonight, it felt especially inviting.

Draco Malfoy was nestled comfortably against you, his head resting on your chest as you both lay sprawled on the plush rug in front of the fireplace. The soft crackling of the fire was the only sound that broke the gentle silence, and it created a rhythm that was as soothing as Draco’s steady breathing.

You ran your fingers through Draco's silver-blonde hair, the silky strands slipping through your fingers with a pleasing texture. He sighed contentedly, his usual aloof demeanor melting away in the warmth of your embrace. You could feel the tension of the day slowly draining from him as he relaxed more deeply into your arms.

"I could get used to this," Draco murmured, his voice soft and slightly muffled by your chest. There was a hint of a smile in his tone, a rare moment of vulnerability that he only showed when he was with you.

You chuckled lightly, pressing a gentle kiss to the top of his head. "I'm glad you think so. We both need moments like this."

Draco shifted slightly, looking up at you with his striking gray eyes. "It's just... things can get so overwhelming sometimes. It's nice to have a place where I can just be."

You nodded, understanding perfectly. Hogwarts was full of pressures and expectations, and moments like these were precious escapes from the world’s demands. You pulled Draco closer, his warmth merging with yours as you wrapped your arms around him more securely.

"Anytime you need to escape, you know where to find me," you said softly, brushing a stray strand of hair from his face.

Draco’s smile widened, a genuine expression of contentment and affection. He shifted slightly, his hand finding yours and intertwining your fingers together. "I know. And I appreciate it more than you know."

The conversation drifted off as you both settled into a comfortable silence, the warmth of the fire and the softness of the rug creating a perfect cocoon around you. As Draco snuggled closer, you could feel his trust and affection radiating from him, making this quiet moment all the more precious.

Outside the dorm, the night continued its course, but inside, there was a tranquil haven where Draco Malfoy and you could simply be—together.
