I have my confidence again thanks to one of my beloved fans that I am a fan of the one (or two) only HoleyJeansLove23.
For the next couple of days Macy avoided Draco as much as possible. They only had a few classes together and then she would go to the library until she knew that he would be in bed and asleep. This worked until the day all of the cupids were gone.
At dinner the school was much happier to be rid of the pests, none more than Macy and Draco. The Headmaster stood up to say something to the school when there was a crash and the whole back window behind the teachers exploded. Everyone ducked from the shrapnel.
"What's going on?!" Macy yelled over the crashing.
Her question was answered when a group of Death Eaters came through the door. They petrified the professors and pushed them out of their places. Once every Death Eater had taken the place of a professor, Snape walked through the door. Once he got to the place where Dumbledore had been standing he stood there and looked at the students.
"I am guessing that you all have guessed what is happening so there will be no questions." Every student, even Slytherin, had fear in their faces. "School will resume as it should, but you will have new professors, new curriculum, and new discipline. Now, you will all go to your dormitories and anyone caught out of bed let's just hope you won't be out of bed." He said in a threatening manner.
Everyone got up and started to their dorms. Macy hurried up to her dorm as not to run into Draco or a Death Eater. Once she was in her room she closed the door and went through what had just happened.
"Oh my god," her stomach lurched as she thought about what had just happened; she ran into her bathroom and vomited.
"You were out of bed, naughty baby." Bellatrix said in a terribly child like voice.
"I-I was on night rounds just like the others!" Macy pleaded.
"But that's not allowed anymore, you could run away. We wouldn't want that now would we?" Macy was pressing herself onto the wall wanting to seep through. "Avada kedavra!"
Macy sat straight up in her bed and screamed. When she saw that she was in her bed and that she was safe she started to cry. Why had she had such a terrible dream?
"Macy?" Draco ran through the door. When he saw Macy's sobbing figure in the dark he ran over to her. "Macy, what's wrong?" he wrapped his arms around her and tried to calm her down. Macy had her head against his chest.
"B-B-Bellatrix," she tried to talk but her sobs wouldn't let her. "K-killing c-c-c-curse."
"Shh, it was just a dream." He stroked her hair. Soon her sobs had weakened enough for her to hold herself up and talk almost normally. She wiped away her tears and lifted her head from Draco's chest. She noticed that he was only wearing a pair of plaid flannel pajama bottoms. She blushed when she realized that she had been leaning against his bare chest.
"I-I'm sorry that I woke you up."
"You didn't wake me up, I was reading."
"I'm okay now," she said shortly, expecting him to get up and leave.
"Are you sure?"
"Yeah, I'm fine." Draco looked her in the eyes and suddenly Macy felt a spark. She looked at her hand and saw that his hand was on hers.
"Good night." Before her got up her kissed her forehead and then walked out of the room. She looked at her hand. Was that shock really just from him touching her hand? She thought about it as she went back to bed.
"Muggles are vile, worthless creatures that should be honored to have us even think about them." Said the death eater Alecto Carrow.
"Really?" Macy whispered to her friend sarcastically.
"Who said that?" Alecto snapped. "I said, who said that!" Macy stood up.
"I did, is there a problem with that?"
"Come here, girl." Macy rolled her eyes and walked up to the front of the class. She stood in front of her and then was stricken to the ground. "Let that be a lesson to you all." The bell rang and everyone walked to their next class. Macy took the longest as she walked down the halls and sat down; she had a free period, and rubbed her cheek. It was starting to bruise where Alecto had slapped her.
Draco walked by and saw Macy crying as she held her cheek. He looked around and no one was in the hall.
"Macy? Are you okay?" she looked up and wiped away her tears.
"Yeah, I'm fine." She held her cheek. Draco sat down and gently pulled her hand off the bruise, it was light purple. He lightly touched her cheek. She jumped slightly.
"Did I hurt you?"
"No, It's just," she bit her lip. "It's nothing, just being stupid."
"What?"
"You're warm," she looked highly embarrassed.
"Did you expect me to be made of ice?" he laughed. His hand on her cheek felt so good to Macy.
"I-I" she came to her senses. "I have to go."
Okay guys, MEGA scene for my fans in the next chapter so I made this short. Some have said that there is a "tension" between Macy and Draco since the beginning, and some have asked for more tension, and in the next one there will be. Prefect's bathroom is a good place for a bath as Cedric Diggory said.
