I gazed fondly into Draco's eyes "So, why have you got me here on my own?" I inquired smiling slightly. "I thought it'd be obvious." He replied pulling me close. I blushed and giggled. "Dru, you gotta get up now." "Wha?" "Dru… Dru…" Suddenly I realized I could no longer hear Draco's voice. "DRU! GET UP!" my heart sank as I realized that I'd just been having my usual dream. "But that one seemed so real." I sighed. "Dru what are you on about?" my best friend Sally laughed. "Oh erm, nothing…" I replied blushing. Sally laughed as she usually did. I quickly pulled on some clothes and my Hogwarts robes. "Dreaming about Draco again." She whispered down my ear. "Get stuffed, I don't like him in that way!" "Whatever, what girl doesn't! except them stuck up Gryffindor types." She said pulling a face. I just smiled at her sweetly. "So are you saying you like him." "USED to." She retorted. I just smiled sweetly again. We made our way down into the Slytherin common room. "Dru!" I heard from behind me. "Draco!" I grinned turning around. If it were any other guy I'd be blushing till my cheeks were sore but I'd known him for awhile so I managed to control it. "C'mon people let us gooo." Sally smiled eyeing me for any "signs". "I don't fancy him!" I whispered to her as we sat down at the Slytherin table. "Of course you don't babe." She replied pouting at me. I just let out and "ugh!" sound and turned the other way. "What kinda noise was that Dru! Drusilla's horny!" I elbowed her in the side before turning back. Draco was sat next to me smirking at me. "What! I can be horny if I want!" "When aren't you horny?" Sally retorted sulking over the bruise I'd planted on her side. I simply ignored her and started eating my breakfast. "Oooh, Dru look it's your sister with some kinda ugly growth attached to her side."

Sally said suddenly. This made Draco laugh I secretly felt like elbowing Sally again but I simply looked up. "Oh yer Mel… Oh god I knew she had bad taste but that's just taking the piss." I gasped. I had a secret hatred for Melinda, well actually no it was quite a public hatred but oh well, she was in Gryffindor I was allowed to. Me and Melinda were triplets, the third one of us was called Clarissa who was in Ravenclaw. I spotted Clarissa who smiled and waved at me. I grinned back and nodded. I got on with her much better than I did Melinda. Clarissa was smart, funny, pretty, innocent, all the things I wanted to be. I never told anyone this… No one knew what I was like really, only Clarissa. And yet Clarissa still loved me, even though she knew everything about me. She even knew who I was crushing on and she never told a soul. I respected that girl. However Melinda was a scummy ho and I couldn't have cared less about her. I was pretty sure the feeling was mutual.

1st Lesson we had Potions. I sat down at a table alone I'd got up there before all the rest of my friends. I was soon joined by Clarissa. "Hey!" she smiled cheerful as usual. "Hi" I sorta smiled back. "Aww is that what kinda response I'm always gonna expect from you." "Oh sorry, CLARISSA! HI! I LOVE YOU, YOU BIG LOVEABLE CUGGLE MONSTER!" I grinned hugging her tightly thinking we were alone. "Nice." I turned around to see Draco smirking at me. "Oh bugger…" "Don't worry y'know I won't tell anyone." He said patting me on the head. I punched him playfully, "How patronizing!" I giggled pretending to be upset. He laughed at my dramatics as we sat down. I looked at the table trying to ignore my butterflies I looked up and saw Clarissa smiling comfortingly at me. I was happy until Melinda came and sat down next to us. "Ugh." I scowled and rolled my eyes. "You getting horny again Drusilla?" Draco grinned. I tried not to blush. "I'm going thru a dry patch I can't help it." I grinned. "Maybe I could help you out." He smirked. I just laughed at him hoping it didn't show that I would have really liked that. Melinda rolled her eyes at me. I simply responded by giving her the finger and pulling a face at her. "Fuck you Drusilla." She growled. I then watched in amusement as she was given a detention by Snape. I slipped my headphones on and pretended I was paying attention.

Once he'd finished all the explaining malarkey we were split up into pairs to do our work. "Ok… ummm… What do we have to do?" I said gazing vacantly at the ingredients before me. "I dunno ask you sister." Draco replied. My heart skipped a beat as I realized I'd been paired up with him. We were being paired up all the time but I still got excited by it even though I knew he'd only ever like me as a friend. "Clarissa… What do we do?" I asked. She gave me her notebook where she had very neatly scrawled down some instructions. "Thanks, god, you've got such neat handwriting I fuckin hate it!" I laughed. Clarissa smiled. I knew she loved seeing me laugh. I tried to laugh for her as often as I could.

"Here" I smiled handing Draco Clarissa's notebook. He set to work whilst I stared at his hotness and did as I was told when needed. "Is that it?" I asked looking at the purple gloopy mixture before me. Draco nodded. "It should be." "I really wanna poke it but last time that happened it ate me." I cringed. "Haha yer I remember that." He smirked. "You were in the hospital wing unconscious for three days with a cauldron stuck to your arm." I blushed. "It was evil." "Aww I know babe." He pouted. I collapsed into giggles. "See it was funny!" I just smiled at him. "D'you think I should poke it?" "Ha-ha go on then." I put my hand into the cauldron and extended my finger out. "Oh no don't I don't want you to knock yourself out!" Draco said suddenly grabbing my arm. Too late. The purple mixture started swallowing both of us.

2 hours later we were stuck in the hospital wing together… Literally. The cauldron had been removed but we had to wait until the purple stuff dropped off on its own accord. I went to put my hand in my lap but as the purple stuff had glued Draco's arm to mine his hand went with it. "My! Drusilla that's very forward of you" he smirked. Oh what a sexy smirk… I cringed and moved my hand so it was down by my side. I felt Draco's hand place itself gently on mine. He didn't move it as I'd expected. I looked at my feet hoping that my thick purple hair would cover up my burning cheeks. I looked up searching for something to say to break the silence. I was sure I felt him tighten his grip on my hand but I told myself he was probably just fidgeting.
