Summary: Missing moments from the story "Marriage Law".

Disclaimer: Harry Potter and it's characters are not mine. Don't sue me.


A/N: Hello! I had the idea of creating this "ML Outtakes" because there were some scenes that didn't actually fit into the story but were necessary none the less. :)

This scene comes after chapter ten! Ava-Potter gal asked me why did Goldstein come and attack Hermione. Goldstein is a prefect, so Hermione and Draco knew him and he actually joined the DA. Why did he attack our Golden Girl? I have no idea... I mean, I never liked him - for some reason -, so I made him do it. :)


Missing Moment #1 - Mine

"Zabini!" Draco entered his Common Room and shouted for the boy.

Many students were curious to know why Draco was livid, but knew better than asking or even looking at him for that matter.

"What's up?" Blaise Zabini appeared from the staircase and arched an eyebrow when he saw the blond.

Malfoy didn't even answered him, he just exited the Common Room, knowing the other would follow.

"Yo! Slow down. What happened?" He stepped in front of his friend, demanding an answer. "Who are we going to hit? And since we are - because I know the look on your face -, I at least should know why, don't you agree?"

Draco Malfoy shook his head and spoke in a low, menacing tone. "Goldstein attacked Granger." He focused his gaze on his friend's midnight blue eyes and hissed. "You better not talk about it."

"Blaise rolled his eyes and commented dismissively when he started walking again. "Talk about what?"

The two Slytherins marched to the Ravenclaw Common Room and luckily found a first-year about to enter it. The scared kid quickly said the password and let them both in. To say that it was easy to get Goldstein to leave his house would be an understatement. Some of his friends healed some of his bruises and he was more confident than before. But nothing that a good threat didn't take care of. With the possibility of Malfoy going to Dumbledore, he let himself be pulled away from his confused house mates that had no idea of why the boys were fighting. An empty classroom appeared and the Slytherins shoved the other boy inside.

"Why did you attack her?" Draco asked walking towards Goldstein while his mate closed the door and threw silencing charms around. The young Ravenclaw was backing off until he reached a wall. He searched his mind, but his house didn't prepare him for this kind of stuff.

"I didn't mean to..." He was cut off by a punch on the stomach that Blaise gave as a warning. "I just think she's hot. I swear, I got carried away, I wasn't intending on doing anything." All of his confidence disappeared in a split second.

Draco grabbed his neck and forced him against wall, making it hard for him to breathe. "Yeah? I guess I saw it wrong then, cause I could swear that you got your hands on her. Touching her."

"See, Goldstein, if you think a girl is hot, then you go talk to her. You don't attack her! What's your problem?" He punched the boy again while Draco still had a hold of his neck. When he was almost passing out - due to the lack of air -, Malfoy let him go and he pitifully slid down the wall.

"I swear I didn't mean it, I don't know what happened to me. I promise it won't ever happen again!" He was almost crying. Pathetic.

"You're damn right it won't..." Blaise let the sentence fade away when he kicked the boy.

After a while, the beating ended and the Slytherins cleaned themselves to leave the room. Before Zabini was out, he turned back and said with a smirk to Goldstein. "One word about this..."

"And if we see you magically healed..." Draco added and left with his mate.
