Blaise watched as Draco slyly pushed Pansy out of the way to get to him; she followed behind like a silent lapdog and stood there until he told her to sit down.

"Alright, Blaise. Got a girlfriend yet? They're good for some things you know." smirked Draco while Pansy smiled weakly, if anything to avoid a beating or telling off later on when the two were alone.

"No, there's not much talent here." he laughed as Draco agreed, Pansy sitting there silently.

Blaise knew how Draco treated Pansy; everyone did, but nobody wanted to get involved with the son of a Death Eater who is probably one himself. Never mess with those who have the most powerful wizard in the world on their side. Silly Harry Potter, thinking he, a mere boy, could ever defeat the Dark Lord.

"I heard there's a veela coming soon, by the name of Fleur Delacour." Draco smiled and Blaise watched Pansy's eyes soften and fill with tears before she quickly blinked them away hoping nobody had noticed how she really felt inside.

"Ahh, for the tournament? From Beauxbatons?"

"Yeah," nodded Draco "Apparently, a pretty little blonde thing. Anyways, better be off, got to send an owl to father about new brooms." he started to walk away and Blaise heard him shout Pansy's name and he watched as she dutifully followed him out of the room.

Before Draco had claimed Pansy as his own in their first year, Pansy and Blaise used to be best friends; their mothers introduced them when they were small and they loved each other like brother and sister; it hurt Blaise so much to see what his current best friend was doing to her. Blaise remembers how before he and Draco became best friends, Draco was jealous of their relationship and soon forced Pansy to cut it off. It ended with Draco, of course, winning the argument and so establishing himself in control of both Pansy and the Slytherin house.
