Ladida... Here you guys goo!
Draco re-read the note for the umpteenth time. The room of requirement?
''Destiny..'' He muttered, under his breath. 'Stop it!' He thought to himself. He couldn't get the kiss out of his mind. He felt so confused. He wished that Destiny was there, then He'd feel better.
He set out for the Gryffindor cam up to the Fat lady's portrait. ''What are YOU doing here?' She shrieked. ''You're not a gryffindor!''
''Shut up you stupid painting.'' He snapped, though she was right. How was he going to get in? What about the number of filthy Gryffindors inside, who were likely to freak out if they saw him?
He went back to the Slytherin dungeon. He took his broom, and went out to the courtyard, and mounted onto his broom. He flew around the castle, looking for a window through which he could peek into the Gryffindor common room. He finally found it, and hovered a safe distance away, so that he wouldn't be caught, but could still see inside.
He could see into a corner, by the fireplace. Destiny was sitting on a sofa, surrounded by Gryffindor boys. Jordan Lee to her right, Seamus Finnigan to her left, etc.
''Pathetic.'' He mumbled to himself. He stared at the girl, until she caught his eye. It was only for a split second, but Draco suddenly lost balance, and fell.
Just as he was about to hit the ground holding onto his broom, he grabbed it with both hands and got back on steadily. He flew around the castle to steady his nerves, then went back to the Slytherin dungeons. He walked back into the boys dormitories, and towards his room. Since he was so rich, it only made sense that he had his own room.
He placed his broom into it's case. He was startled by the sight of a beautiful girl perched on his leather armchair. ''Destiny!''
Destiny looked at her fingernails. What WAS she doing here? Did she really want to see Draco that bad? She wanted to slap herself for being so pathetic.
'Play with him' The small, devilish voice in her head cried. 'Make him want you like anything.' Now THAT was something that tickled her thoughts.
''If you want me to show you to the room of requirement, just owl me.'' She said, in her low, eerie voice. With that, she summoned up her dark powers and dissapparated.
She apparated into a dark corner near the gryffindor tower entrance.
The next few days were a mix of studies, quidditch practice and thinking about Destiny Black, the girl who stole his heart.
One Friday night, he got out of his bed, wearing his silk pajamas and snuck down the owlrey. He tiptoed most of the way, until he remembered that he was a wizard, and cast a silencing charm on his feet. He creept through the door to the owlrey and sent a letter. He went back to his bedroom, and tried to sleep.
The next morning at breakfast, Destiny was surprised receive a letter. She slipped it into her robe pocket, and continued eating breakfast. As she was every night, she was surrounded by boys, courtesy of her mysterious charm.
She slipped a smile to Seamus. He was the most fanciable of the boys. She quite enjoyed playing with Draco. She knew that he was watching her. She knew that he'd see that smile. So did Seamus. He returned the smile, and shifted closer to her.
Seamus grasped Destiny's hand. This was a very dangerous move, but she had smiled at him, surely that meant something?
Soon breakfast was over. Everybody left for their classes, except for Destiny, Seamus, Draco, Crabbe and Goyle. ''Why are we still here? '' Crabbe complained. ''The room is almost completely empty.'' Goyle pointed out. Freaking losers, Draco thought. ''I just wish to finish my pudding, is it to much to ask from you blubberheads?'' He snipped.
He sat, taking the smallest bites, watching Destiny flirt with Seamus. He watched them leave, hand-in-hand.
He got up, dumping the leftover pudding. He followed Destiny, at a non-suspicious distance. He had potions with her, so he had a reasonable excuse.
''May I walk you to your Potions class?'' Seamus asked with a flourish. Destiny nodded. She had noticed Draco behind them, and couldn't wait to do something drastic. They walked down the large, spiraling staircase, towards the last hallway leading to the potions room. Suddenly, she spun 'round and Kissed Seamus. It was short, no tongue, no passion or emotion, but it was sweet.
''Thank you, for being so sweet.'' She smiled, she turned around and pranced off, before she got to see the horrified look on Draco's face. Inwardly, she was laughing her head off. Ooooh this was fuun!
Draco felt like screaming. How could Destiny kiss him, then proceed to flirt and kiss Seamus. How dare she? He stared furiously and the back of her head during potions. The gorgeous, silky, black hair was so seducing. He was so confused, that he messed up and added three eyes of newts instead of two, and black smoke was pouring out. Oops.
Professor Snape walked over. ''What is the meaning of this?'' He mumbled. ''Draco Malfoy, my best student. What is the matter with you?'' He gently whacked the top of Draco's head with a textbook.
''Sorry professor.'' Draco muttered. Damn that girl.
He waited until the class was over, then Grabbed Destiny's hand as she exited the classroom. He dragged her to a dark hallway. ''What the hell are you doing?'' He exclaimed.
Destiny smirked. She Leaned over and kissed him. She grabbed the back of his head. He wrapped his arms around her waist. She slammed his body against the wall. Draco felt so good as their tongues intertwined and she stroked his silky blonde hair.
''Forgiven?'' Destiny grinned as they broke apart. Draco smiled. ''Once more?'' He asked, pleadingly. She glued her lips back to his.
Destiny didn't think about Seamus. She couldn't have cared less that she was playing with his feelings to get to Draco. She didn't care whether the kiss had meant something big to him. She DID care that Draco was with her. As much as she was ashamed, she was falling for the Malfoy boy, who had stolen her duty, straight from the hands of her father.
They broke apart. ''I'll see you in lunch, then I'll show you the room of requirement.'' She whispered, breathlessly. She turned around and skipped off.
Draco felt antsy for the rest of the morning. He couldn't wait to see Destiny. He finally finished writing his Herbology essay, handed it in to Professor Sprout and sprinted out of the room.
His face broke into a grin when he spotted Destiny in the hallway. It disappeared when he noticed who she was holding hands with. Seamus. Again. That pathetic fool, did he really think he had a chance? Probably, by the way Destiny was flirting with him. She smiled, kissed him on the cheek and bounded off towards Draco.
''You ready?'' She asked. Draco nodded grimly. She lead him down hallway after hallway, until they came to a blank wall. ''Normally, you'd have to do some stupid ritual to get the door to show itself. But, I have something much better.'' She threw her head back and cackled. She flipped out her wand and moved her feet into a fighting stance.
''Enconceleata! The room where things are hidden!'' She shrieked. A black smoke poured out from the tip of her wand. Soon enough the entire wall was engulfed in smoke. Once the smoke had cleared, Draco could see that a large wooden door had materialized.
Destiny pushed the door open. She disappeared into the darkness. Draco hesitated, then followed her in. She cast another spell and the area was filled with a soft light. Draco looked around and saw...
Boxes and Boxes. From old textbooks to banned potions. Broken wands to hidden sweets. This room was nothing more than a big mass of junk.
Draco couldn't think of any reason why Destiny would have brought him here.
He looked over at the sneaky girl. She was sitting on a short pile of old text books, with her left leg over her right. She smiled teasingly. She curled a glossy lock of black hair around her index finger.
Draco felt so... What was it called? Oh yeah, He wanted to kiss her so badly. Instead, he walked over to her and crossed his arms.
"Well? What did you want to show me?" He asked impatiently.
Geez. This boy. Ugh. Destiny thought. She jumped off her high ersatz pedestal and took a few steps. She turned around and motioned with her fingers for Draco to follow her.
Suddenly, it came to her that she didn't know herself. That was the one thing that wasn't there on the note. Maybe he'll tell me tonight, She thought to herself. But still, what was she going to tell the boy?
"That's as far as I'll take you.'' She announced, turning around to look at Draco. "Until you agree that I can help you." She smirked. She knew that he would less likely give in than kiss Potter. That would give her a day or two.
Draco was aghast. She knew he'd never give in, so why would she ask that? "Course not. It's mine, remember."
Destiny walked over to Draco, kissed him, then walked out. "Once you leave, the doors will disappear." She called out behind her, leaving Draco staring, at the closed doors.
AN: Hi again! Ooooh this is fuuuuunnnnnn!
So, in reply to The Mad: I hope that somehow I can incorporate her mum into the story (maybe in a big way.. hint hint) and (sadly) It's not Bella.
