PS: I use British words here because I think they're adorable. aw
"You called for me, Prof. McGonagall?" I asked as I entered the room
Prof. McGonagall looked at me through her glasses "Yes, come in, Ms. Granger"
I walked in and as I grew closer, a noticed a familiar boy sitting across from Prof. McGonagall. His hair platinum and his deep grey eyes staring at me intently.
Draco Malfoy
Prof. McGonagall pointed at the chair beside Malfoy "Well, sit"
And so I did. I avoided Malfoy's eyes but he just stared
Prof. McGonagall crossed her arms "So, I've heard there was another 'misunderstanding' yesterday"
I frowned "Well, yes. Malfoy here made fun of another Gryffindor student yesterday. That poor kid is in his first year and he's already ruining this year for him."
Prof. McGonagall raised a brow "I see"
In the corner of my eye, I saw Malfoy roll his eyes
"Anything to say, Mr. Malfoy?" Prof. McGonagall asked
"It was just for fun" was all he answered
"That poor kid cried the whole day, Mr. Malfoy!" I shouted, unable to control the urge
Malfoy frowned "I don't think it's any of your business, Granger"
"Well, excuse me for caring" I growled "I happen to be a Gryffindor too if you haven't noticed"
"Enough!" Prof. McGonagall shouted
Both Malfoy and I stopped to stare at her. Prof. McGonagall still had that calmness in her face even though she was clearly agitated. I just sat back on my chair
"This rivalry of yours had been going on long enough" Prof. McGonagall sighed, her fingers locking "I decided to resolve this problem"
Good luck with that
"You two will be on a trip for a week" Prof. McGonagall said
A trip with Draco Malfoy for a week?
"I'm sorry?" I frowned "Did you say a trip with Malfoy?"
Prof. McGonagall nodded "Yes, Ms. Granger. A trip with Mr. Malfoy for a whole week"
"Prof. McGonagall, this is delirious! We will not be 'friends' no matter what you do" I reasoned out
I knew I wouldn't win over Prof. McGonagall but I had to try
"I am not going to a trip with a mudblood" Malfoy spat out the last word like it was acid
I felt the sudden urge to punch him senseless. But, I decided not to
"It's decided" Prof. McGonagall clasped her hands together "This duty will be effective tomorrow morning so I suggest you pack up tonight"
Malfoy glared at me devilishly
Without a word, I stormed out of the office and back to the Gryffindor common room
"You and Malfoy are going where exactly?" Harry asked, his foot thumping on the wooden floor
I sat beside Harry, my fingers tearing through my skin. My mind was racing and I don't want anything to do with Malfoy. Not now, not ever
I felt Harry's cold hand on mine. I just tried my best to smile at him
"I don't know" I answered "Prof. McGonagall didn't really mention anything. She just told us to meet her in her office tomorrow morning"
Harry slid his finger on the back of my hand "Maybe you can try not going?"
I frowned "As tempting as that sounds, I can't. What if I don't advance a year? What if I fail? I may never live with myself!"
Harry rolled his eyes "That's right. You're Hermione"
"I guess I'm stuck with that Slytherin tosser"
"You can do this Hermione" I said to myself "You can last a week with a damn nutter"
I opened the wooden door leading to Prof. McGonagall's office. Prof. McGonagall stood near the door, she held Malfoy's arm on her right hand. He looked pained and mad at the same time. In his left hand, he held his briefcase
"Thank God" Prof. McGonagall smiled "I thought I had to march on over to your common room too and grab you"
Malfoy glared at her "I am not going anywhere with a Gryffindor prude"
Prof. McGonagall pursed her lips "Whether you like it or not, you're going"
She walked past me then motioned me to follow her "Come on, Ms. Granger"
Prof. McGonagall went out. I closed the door behind me then walked after her. She was swift and Malfoy practically had to jog to keep up with her. We went up several flights of stairs until we reached a familiar hallway. On the far end of the hallway is a statue of a gargoyle
The Headmaster's office
"Acid Pops" whispered Professor McGonagall to the gargoyle
The statue moved aside showing flights of stairs. We descended until we reached the office. A circular room with masses of bookshelves welcomed us. A desk sat on the middle with two stairs behind it. There were tons of painting of old headmistresses and headmasters. Some of them I know and some of them I've only seen in the books
Prof. McGonagall dragged Malfoy to the desk where a brush sat. I followed
She pointed at the brush "It's a Portkey I made; it will take you to the location where you and Malfoy will be staying for the rest of the week"
"Isn't this unauthorized?" I asked
Prof. McGonagall just stared "Yes it is. So before both of you leave, are there any questions?"
"Can I please kill myself?" Draco gritted his teeth
"No you cannot" She simply answered "Ms. Granger?"
"Where is this place exactly?"
Prof. McGonagall smiled "Well, it's in the middle of nowhere, Ms. Granger"
I shrugged
"After a week, I will be coming to fetch you" Prof. McGonagall explained "Ready?"
I just nodded
Prof. McGonagall reached for my hand until I felt Malfoy's hand on mine. It was cold and shaking. Prof. McGonagall dropped her hand to her side. So, it was only me, Malfoy and the Portkey.
"Good luck" Prof. McGonagall said in a sweet tone
Without any hesitation, I reached for the brush
I opened my eyes and realized I was sitting on grass. I stood up, brushing dirt off my jeans. I looked in front of me and I saw a cottage. The mustard-colored walls seemed new and there were arched windows. There was a chimney on top that blew out smoke. I turned and all I see are trees and grass. We were in the middle of nowhere
Then, I realized it
Malfoy and I are supposed to stay in the same roof together
I shiver at the thought
But, all that registered through me is that I was completely mad with Malfoy. If he hadn't made fun of the boy, we may not be here right now. I turned and saw him standing alone; he was massaging the back of his head.
Without any thought, I marched towards him
"You knob head!" I lazily punched his torso "This is your fault!"
Malfoy stared down at me, dodging punches "How is this my fault, Granger? If you haven't reported that incident to McGonagall we might not even be here"
"And what do you think am I supposed to do? Ignore him?" I spat out "I am not heartless like you, you lousy scoundrel!"
Malfoy grinned "I may be heartless but I'm still an attractive bloke, aren't I?"
I scowled. Attractive?
His hair glowed under the sunlight and his grey eyes staring at me like the last time in Prof. McGonagall's office. I had to admit it
He isn't ugly
"See? You agree!" Malfoy beamed
"I do not!" I growled "Well, you're not ugly-but I don't find you attractive, Malfoy"
"Whatever you say" Malfoy walked towards the cottage and I follow after him. We marched towards the porch. Malfoy nudged open the door then went in
The cottage's cream white walls adjusting perfectly as the rays of the sun beam from the arched window. There was a couch in the middle of the room, a kitchen in the far side and a staircase that probably leads to the bedroom. I went up the stairs and opened the door to the first door on the left.
The room wasn't quite big but it fitted well. A double bed was placed In the middle of the room. There was a closet and a desk. I was about to set down my briefcase there when Malfoy walked in.
He threw his briefcase on the bed then laid on top of it
I groaned "Go find yourself a room! I called dibs on this one"
He looked at me through half-open eyes "Well, I'm already here so shoo!"
"Stupid tosser" I whispered, hoping he can hear me
I exited the room then opened the door to the other room.
It wasn't a bedroom, it was actually a bathroom
The bathroom seemed rather decent. So, I let it that way
I went to the hallway then stopped on my tracks.
Wait
There weren't any rooms left
There is only one bedroom
"Blimey" I whispered
A/N: Well, you've reached the end! So, was it a yay or nay? Reviews please!
