a/n: Okay, back once again. Here's my newest story. :) I couldn't help but start a new one. Dont worry, I'll finish the other stories. BY THE WAY, while reading this chapter, listen to "Cry" by Kelly Clarkson , It's where I got the idea for the story.
Disclaimer: I only own Ellie
Summary:: It's the Golden trio's 6th year and fellow Ravenclaw was known to be second best in the year behind Hermione. But what happens when she falls for the God of Slytherin?
Chapter 1: Cry
Ellie Grenon, best friends to The Golden Trio, very popular in her house of Ravenclaw. She had so many nicknames and people mainly knew her for her brains or her popularity. But the day that she dreaded came, and she was officialy known as Draco's newest ex. The breakup hadn't been anything horrible, he just wanted out of the relationship. And that was the hardest thing Ellie had ever had to go through, though they had only been going out for two months. She really was falling in love with him and he had to just throw it back at her. For a week after their breakup, she hoped that he would take it back or atleast talk to her about it. But their only contact would be in the hallways or in Potions where they would barely manage to make eye contact.
They walked past each other, their eyes quickly meeting before hers dropped to the ground. She couldn't help herself; she glanced over her shoulder hoping she would see him doing the same, looking back at her. But her heart dropped, for he had walked up to some blonde and kissed her hungrily. Tears quickly formed in her eyes as she felt her heart snap. Suddenly, she saw the trio approaching her and brushed her tears away. Hermione smiled at her, but the smile dropped when she saw Draco snogging the blonde behind Ellie.
"I would be so mad if I was you," she whispered, her eyes darting back to see her best friend's reaction. But Ellie shrugged, "We grew apart. Not my fault." Looking over her shoulder again, she realized the scene hadn't changed so she turned back to her friends. "I'm going back to my common room. I'll see you later." And without any hesitation, she walked briskly back to the Ravenclaw dorm. Once she reachd her dorm, she collasped on her bed, sobbing uncontrollably. She hadn't realized Cho was in the room until Cho sat next to her and pulled her into a hug.
"Why can't this just be a dream?" Ellie choked out between sobs.
"You'll be okay," Cho stated. "You'll get over him." Flashbacks of her and Draco's moments together crept through her mind, making her sob even more. Cho silently sat there, rubbing her back, offering her words of encouragement every few moments. After Ellie had calmed down, she made Cho promise never to tell a soul of what happened in the dorm that day.

Later that night, Ellie sat in the Great Hall at the Gryffindor table for dinner. Hermione and Harry were across from her, Ron was on her left and Ginny was on her right.
"What does he think he's doing?" Hermione suddenly snapped. Ellie looked at Hermione to see she was glaring at someone over Ellie's shoulder. Sighing, Ellie mustered every bit of courage she had to look over her shoulder. And there he was, the god of Slytherin, staring at her with such a cold look on his face.
"He never looked at me that way," Ellie thought to herself as she turned back and faced Hermione.
"Who cares," she stated lightly. "I'm over him anyway." A very light, but very fake smile grew on her face and Ron put his arm around her shoulders happily.
"Glad you finally got sense knocked into you," He laughed and Harry nodded in agreement. Ellie faced Ron as he said this, but snuck a glance over her shoulder to see if he was still watching. Sadly, he was preoccupied with the blonde that had thrown herself into his lap. Turning back, a feeling of defeat hit Ellie. This was it. It was over; She was never going to be with Draco again. He was over and done with her. He moved on quickly, like he was known to with girls. Harry broke Ellie out of her thoughts, when he said something.
"Sorry, I didn't catch that," Ellie stated, eyeing Harry curiously. Harry shrugged, "I said you can't blame us. Cuz we did tell you that he was only using you." That was the last straw for Ellie. She shook her head at Harry in a hurt manner before briskly walking out of the Great Hall, holding back every emotion that was rushing through her. She never wanted to punch Harry in the face more than she did at that moment. She knew she had to act like she was fine with everything, but she couldn't. Taking off to the Ravenclaw tower, she could've sworn Draco was just leaving the Great Hall. But it took everything she had to not turn around. She couldn't; He had ended this, not her. He didnt want her anymore.
"I'll move on." She thought to herself. But deep in her heart, she knew that everyone, even herself knew that she was lying. She had done the worse thing that she promised herself she'd never do. She fell in love with Draco and because of him, she learned what it was like to truly cry.

The next day, she entered Potions class to find that she had been partnered with Hermione. Putting her stuff down, she went to get the ingrediants for the potion, when on the way back she bumped into someone, dropping some items. Looking up, there was the familiar blonde that had broken her heart. Ellie watched curiously as Draco bent down and picked up the vial of werewolf hair and handed it back to her.
"You dropped this," he said, lightly. And with a light smile, he walked away back to his cauldron where Goyle was waiting for him. Ellie let out a light sigh and walked back to Hermione and let the items spill from her arms and onto the table. Hermione opened her mouth, about to say something to her best friend.
"Don't even bother," Ellie stated, "I'm over it." But even deep down, Ellie knew that that was the biggest lie.
A/n: Sooooo...I'm really debating on what to do with this one :P but I really liked this chapter so I felt the need to post it :) Sorry if it seems out of character or anything.
