Chapter Four
"Don't touch me!" Draco hissed.
The whole Slytherin table was surprised, they gazed at the scene evolving in front of them. Not a single word was said, but Pansy broke the silence with her sobs. "Drakey-Poo why are you behaving like this?" Pansy questioned Draco as she sobbed hysterically and tried to grab onto Draco again.
"Don't. Touch. Me. Pansy, and if you ever call me that again; I'm not going to able hold back anymore." Draco said calmly making Pansy shiver from fear. Pansy was going to reply back to Draco, but Blaise stopped her and told her to leave before any of the professors got too suspicious of the sudden silence emanating from the Slytherin table. Pansy didn't have to be told twice to leave. As soon as she left almost everything returned to normal. Blaise started questioning Draco of his earlier actions, but he just dismisses him and watched Nott and his mate leave the Great Hall.
"I feel sort of bad for Pansy, but she should have known it was going to happen sooner or later." Xandra told Nott as they head to the dungeon.
"I don't feel bad for her at all! If she was clinging onto me every bloody day, I would have exploded years ago, and Draco couldn't handle it anymore, she was a pest to Draco and everyone close to him. He had the right to become angry." Nott defended Draco. Xandra was surprised by her friend's sudden outburst, but she did agree with him at some level. Draco did make Pansy believe –in a way- that they were going steady. He attended many balls with Pansy as his partner. They went an plenty of dates together, he will buy her gifts, and they will owl each other when they were apart.
"But Nott don't I cling onto you all the time?" She giggled as she attached herself onto Nott's arm.
"Well, yes, yes you do, but you are not annoying as her," he said as he tightened his arm, making it hard for Xandra to detach herself from him, "and your presence doesn't bother me at all." He smiled at her.
"Why is that Nott?" Xandra questioned Nott cheerfully as she hugged him and whispered into his ear, "is it because am your best friend?"
"Of course, why else." Nott responded. They enter the dungeon, and head towards the girls dormitories. "Why did you bring me over here?" Nott questioned as he sat himself in her bed.
"Well, remember last summer when you said you wanted to play a stupid Muggle game, I happen to come across one this summer," she looked under her bed and took out a box, "and I brought it so we can test it out."
"What the bloody hell is that?" Nott pointed at the unopened box. He was pointing at the man with a big bright red nose and who has holes in his body with tiny objects in them.
"The game is called Operation." Xandra told Nott as she read the name of the box and grabbed the instructions. "It says here that the goal of the game is to try to grab the objects from inside the holes, without touching the man and if you do touch the man you lose the game." Xandra then grabs the tweezers from the box and hands it to Nott. "You go first Nott because this was your idea."
Xandra and Nott began playing the board game, Nott loses as soon as they started playing it. They played for about an hour before they both got mad and irritated and they quit playing, and discarded the game. They both headed to the common room as soon as Xandra's roommates start appearing, crowding the room.
In the common room they noticed Draco, Goyle and Blaise talking among each other. Nott and Xandra sat next to each other on the couch near Draco and his gang .
After Nott and Xandra left the dining hall; He was not simply going to sit there and eat letting his mate walk out with another male. He followed Xandra and Nott quietly, he was a couple yards away from the duo, he didn't want them to notice his presence. Luckily, his senses have gone better after the transformation; he can hear from miles away if he concentrates, he's become stronger, and his smelling ability also improved.
As he followed Nott and Xandra, he was paying attention to the conversation the duo were having. As soon as Xandra said that she felt bad for Pansy; he got annoyed; there's no reason for his mate to feel bad for anyone. He could care less about Nott defending him; he felt that Nott was a pawn that he can easily get rid of.
When Xandra clung on to Nott's arm, he was beyond furious; he wanted to rip Nott's arm and kill him. He had to control himself or else he would end up murdering him. He calmed down after he heard Xandra whisper that they were best friends.
When they got to the Dungeon; He saw Nott and Xandra head to her room. He sat in the common room and listened to the whole conversation the two were throwing around about the dumb Muggle game. He was envious of Nott whom was in Xandra room having the greatest time of his life. He knew sooner or later he will replace Nott and when it did happen, he would not allow any man including Nott near Xandra.
He didn't know how he was going to tell Xandra about the veela thing and her being his mate, but he was certain that Xandra will accept him.
Now Nott and Xandra were sitting on the sofa adjacent to him, he couldn't focus on the conversation he, Goyle and Blaise were having. Xandra's scent was driving him ballistic and her proximity didn't help. He actually was attempting to concentrate on what she and Nott were talking about and what Blaise and Goyle were saying to him at the same time. He was no multi-tasker, so he simply blocked out everything except for Xandra's sweet scent. He desired her, he wanted some kind of contact with her whether it be a conversation or physical touch.
Draco started paying attention once more to the conversation he, Goyle and Blaise were having but then Blaise excused himself, saying that he was going to go snog a 6th year Ravenclaw. Goyle also excused himself, stating that he was going to the kitchen to grab a snack. Draco was now sitting alone with no one to bother him, he began to think about a topic that will help him talk to Xandra, but not with Nott but it seemed that destiny was on his side.
A/N: Sorry the chapters are short, and I'll try to make the next chapters longer.
