Summary: Your marriage with Draco is completely different than you once thought. kinda like that.

warnings: none?

word cout: 800+

If it was hard to be married to Draco Malfoy? Well, it certainly wasn't easy due to the behavior of both of you. There had always been this kind of distance between both of you.

For Merlin's sake, you wanted to love him and you knew that feeling was mutual. But something inside you didn't let you. Like there was so kind of strict order, you needed to obey to.

Maybe it was the fact that the arrangement of your marriage was nothing more than a way to please your and his parents. Or maybe you were only doing the things, which were expected of you.

Draco for sure had always been very obliging and polite. You had always been very kind and gentle with him. Just like everyone expected.

Did you ever let your true selves come through? Probably not. You two didn't even argue once and you had been married for one year now.

A sigh left your lips before you took the freshly baked cake out of the oven. Draco would sure be happy about it. He had been working from home currently because he just felt like it. Though you got the feeling the poor man tried to avoid something at work.

Quickly you pushed that thought away and drew your wand. A few seconds later a little, fluffy bird made out of blue light, flew around your head. The second it appeared you felt how a smile tugged on your lips. "I missed you too. Now please go and tell Draco I have a surprise for him."

Immediately the bird flew away and the house felt colder than before. It felt emptier. But you didn't have time for feeling lonely now. Not when you just baked a cake for your husband, who tried his best to be good to you.

Soon, after you finished cutting the cake and putting everything on the table, you heard footsteps. You put a smile on your lips and turned around. "Well, hello there darling." you welcomed Draco with a sweet voice and placed a kiss on his cheek as soon as he reached you.

And while that might be a gesture to show love and affection, for you two it meant nothing much. It only helped you be the perfect little housewife for him. Just how everyone around you expected.

Draco showed you his polite smile so you could see his perfect white teeth. He wrapped his arm around your waist. Yet again not a gesture of love nor affection for you. It helped him to play his role.

"You made this for me, love?" his voice was raspy, just like he had been crying. That caused you to look at his eyes. They were red. You wouldn't dare to mention it. He never mentioned it when you tried to hide when you were crying.

With the biggest smile you could afford, you nodded. He gave you a thankful smile, but something about it was different than usual. It seemed genuine.

Draco kissed your forehead. It is always my forehead, you thought. "Unfortunately I still have a lot of work left. But I'll take a piece with me." he said before reaching for a plate and then turning around.

How bad you wanted to reach for him. How bad you wanted to ask him if he was okay. "Draco?" you barely used his name so when you did the blonde turned around. Suprise was written all over his face.

He looks exhausted, you admitted secretly to yourself. The urge, to pull him into a hug and reassure him that everything will be alright, only grew inside you. You wanted to know what was going on with him. You wanted to be his safe place. You wanted to finally break that distance between you two. "Let me know if you liked it." but you didn't. He nodded before turning around and leaving.

His arm was wrapped around your waist, your head rested on top of his chest. You were asleep and probably having a pretty nice dream. He couldn't help but smile. You pure precious thing didn't deserve this. You deserved someone that loved you and someone you could love.

It was weird for Draco, but he started to grow attached to you. Which made him even madder himself. He wanted to love you and he hated himself for not being able to.

He didn't know what was stopping him. But whatever it was, he would be stronger than it. He would defeat eventually and then you would fall for him too.

The blonde's eyes flew to the clock on his nightstand. It didn't shock him anymore when he saw what time it was. This has been going on for a while now. He would get ready for bed, then you would cuddle, you would fall asleep and he would watch you.

He would desperately watch you. Hoping to find the answer to one of his many questions. As expected he didn't get any. But this was the least he could do. He would be stuck with you for a long time, and you weren't even a bad person to be stuck with.

He had to admit that a long time ago. You were so sweet, always trying to do something for him. Draco could feel how much it bothered you that this distance was between you two. Because that was exactly what he felt.

Draco knew it was now or never. He would do something to change this marriage.
