As the door slammed all three of us jolted awake. The classroom was empty apart from Professor Binns who was sorting out the chalk board muttering about students just sleeping through his lessons. I stood up quickly and we all rushed out of the classroom.
The rest of the day passed uneventfully until the end of the day, which was also time for dinner. Adrian and I said our byes to Amelia as she headed to the Gryffindor and we sat down at Slytherin. I sat with the guys in our year as none of the third year Slytherins were in yet. Adrian introduced me to the other four boys. Ben Morden, Dan Cook, Xanthus Elphick and Julius Nettle. All were purebloods and I recognised Xanthus from a 'get together' my mother had had one time. The Nettles and Cooks were not particularly influential families but I engaged in talk of families with Ben and Xanthus as I had heard of both of their families before with close ties to my own. I knew that my grandfather on my maternal side had been an Elphick. I was so occupied with the conversation that I nearly jumped out of my skin when I felt two hands on my shoulders. I turned my head and found my Dragon. He turned his head to Dan who had been sitting next to me 'Scram.' I scowled at Draco as Dan instantly got up and went to find another place to sit. As he sat down I put my legs on his lap and leant against Adrian who was on my other side. 'That wasn't very nice.' I pouted and he grinned pretending to stand up.
'Well I could leave if you prefer.' I quickly shook my head and he carried on 'Anyway he'll get over it. He'd do anything for a cousin.' He smirked and I shoved him.
'You guys are cousins?' I gaped and I lent over using one finger to shut my mouth and pull me forwards to meet his lips. I smiled at the kiss and hooked my finger into the top of his tie, pulling him forward as I leant back into my comfortable position, leaning on Adrian's shoulder. He smirked and I let go of his tie, but he didn't move back but stayed in the same position until the feast appeared on the table. I smiled and gently pushed him back, suddenly remembering something. 'Oh, did you ever find out what I could do about my rooming situation?' I looked at him and he smirked as if he knew something I didn't, which was probably exactly what it was. 'Oh, yeh. Well my father convinced the school to give me my own private room and I asked Snape if you could bunk with me.'
'Bunk with you as in…' I raised and eyebrow and he smirked.
'nice suggestion. But unfortunately I have a separate bed in my room and there aren't any other private rooms so…' I looked away blushing, of course he wasn't suggesting that. I ate an éclair and saw that Draco had a choux pastry on his plate. 'Wow, look over there. What's that?' I asked pointing towards the doors and as he turned, I grinned and stole the swan taking a bite and unfortunately having half of the swan sticking out of my mouth when he turned back around. 'Hey, what happened to…' he turned to me and I tried smiling awkwardly. Adrian laughed and I shrugged and he put and arm around my shoulder, pulling me to him and stealing the other half from my lips. I quickly chewed and swallowed mine. 'Hey, you can't steal something I stole from you.' I growled and took my legs of his lap and sat up straight, crossing my arms and pretending to be mad at him. 'But it tastes so good' he murmured in my ear, I turned and looked at him, smirking evilly. 'Oh, it's a shame you said that because I don't think I could forgive you, that means I need to take some privileges away. No kisses for you.' I smiled and looked over to where I saw 'Granger' I smiled slightly at her and she waved. I saw the Weasel look over to me and glare, I sighed and saw that the feast was finished. As Adrian and I walked toward the Dungeons I purposely ignored Draco. When we entered the common room I plopped on the couch and lay back, I raised my eyebrows to Draco and sighed 'Ok, this seems like more of a punishment for me. So… get your ass over here' he smirked and swaggered over. I lifted my head and he sat down, I let my head fall on his lap and closed my eyes, feeling him play with my hair. I heard a shout and quickly opened my eyes and saw the first year guys come out with a bottle. We gathered loads of people from second and third years and we started playing 'spin the bottle' and I was the starting person. I spun and managed to land on none other that my very own Draco Malfoy. 'Well, Mister Malfoy, looks like I have to kiss you this time don't I.' I sighed pretending to be bored. 'I suppose.' He smirked and stood moving to sit by my feet. I was confused for a second until he crawled over, on top of me and brought my head up to his. 'I suppose.' he smirked, mocking me then full on snogged me. I smiled into the kiss and we carried on for a whole lot longer than I think you are meant to in a game of spin the bottle. He lifted his head up for a second to say. 'I don't think we'll carry on with the game, thanks.'
I smirked and saw Pansy looking very, well, pissed off. I giggled as he started on the other side of my neck this time and murmured in his ear 'I think Pansy is rather put out with the fact that you've quit the game. I think she wanted the chance for a snog.' I looked at Draco as he lifted his head to smirk down at me. Suddenly I noticed that the room had gone silent and then I heard a cough. I looked up, and thankfully it was no one important but only a prefect who didn't like PDA's, probably because he couldn't get any. I sighed and sat up straight, pushing Draco off, and straight onto the floor. I burst into full out laughing until I did a mini snort and suddenly didn't find it so funny. He harrumphed and stood up, brushing the dirt off and pulled me up with him. 'Come on, I'll show you your new room.' I smirked and looked behind me, seeing Pansy with a glower on her face I winked then laughed at her face as she saw me turn to the right for the boys dorm, rather than the left to the girls. Half way along the corridor we stopped and I saw an ornate door with the words Draco Malfoy carved in. What seemed like a more recent addition was my name, Helen Mirabella Beaufleur. I smiled at my family's propensity to choose strange middle names, my brothers was Charles Zoticus MacGregor. I shook my head and opened the door, gasping at the sight before me. The room was as large as the common room, easily big enough to accommodate ten beds, the walls were a green with silver draping over some of the walls and two grand four poster beds. I turned to Draco, mock frowning 'How come you get to have a room this cool?' I pouted and he smirked taking my hand and twirling me around before bringing me close and murmuring 'Because it's for me.' I smirked and kissed him quickly.
'So which bed is mine?' He smirked back and pointed to the second bed and I nodded, and saw my trunk under it. 'Turn around Draco.' I looked at him to check he had then quickly stripped and put my P.J.'s on. As I turned back around, I saw he had already turned and was watching me. 'You. Utter. Arse!' I growled at him and stepped forward and he raised his hands in surrender. 'I just turned, I didn't see anything.' I glared at him and sat on the bed pulling my covers over my knees and turning to lie down. 'Good night Dragon.' I said and smiled slightly when I heard his reply.
'Good night, little Wolf.'
