I don't own Harry Potter. As usual.

Like A Lost Puppy

Chapter seven

After he sat thinking at the door for a while he went to his room where the not so tired Blaise sat. He was sitting on the bed looking out the window. As Draco got closer, he noticed that he was close to tears. Blaise was still looking out the window as he asked Draco a question ''What does it feel like, Draco?''

''What does what feel like?'' Even thought he knew what he was talking about. He was talking about him being in love with Hermione.

''What does loving some one that you know you could never have without being judged feel like?'' Blaise closed his eyes then heaved in a big breath. He was about to cry. Draco instantly felt sorry for him. He was talking about Pansy. Draco went over and sat next to him. He put his arm around him and just sat there, thinking about the past.

A few years ago Blaise and Pansy had gone out. It was the first time that Blaise had been in love. He acted like she was the most wonderful thing in the world. He would hold her hand and kiss her in front of all his friends. He didn't care if his friends made fun of him. He was happy. Then out of nowhere, Pansy broke up with him. Blaise found out a few days later that she had been cheating on him with Theodore Nott. Whenever he sees them together he would always just turn around and do something else. Make up excuses so he wouldn't have to go hang out with people. Just stay inside and stare out the window. Or just simply not make up excuses and flat out say he didn't feel like it. Then Draco decided he had had enough of his moping around and had to practically drag him out of his bed to the common room where Theodore and Pansy were sitting next to each other, Pansy blushing and giggling and Theodore shooting Blaise dark looks. Like sending him a mind message saying 'yeah. She's mine and what are you going do about it?

So Blaise went right over there and punched Theodore in the nose. Everyone gasped while Pansy screamed and Draco was over in the corner laughing so hard he had to sit down so he wouldn't fall over. ''That my fellow school mate is what I will do about it.'' He looked at Pansy and told her he didn't care about her anymore and that she could have Theodore. He didn't need her in his life anymore. All he needed to do was get that out and now he is all better.

He took one last look at Pansy, wanting to remember this moment for forever. There was blood all over her robes. She looked shocked that Blaise would do that. He had a reputation for being good to almost everyone. He was always gentlemanly like. He must have had a lot of anger for him to do that; thought Pansy.

Blaise looked over at Draco and smiled to himself. Knowing Draco hadn't laughed like that since he first saw him. Blaise walked a little taller that day. He walked right out of the common room with Draco still stifling giggles but trying to remain the cool guy he was known for. It was impossible though. All day long Draco had a smile on his face. He had gotten his best friend back.

Draco snapped back to reality where Blaise looked at him finally. A tear had escaped his eyes. And within a few seconds more and more came. Draco just gave him a hug this time. Not one of the crappy one armed thing but a real hug. A hug that shows you care for the person. '' I guess it feels like, I dunno. Depressing actually. Knowing she doesn't like you and would probably go back to ignoring you at Hogwarts,'' Draco frowned. ''But hey,'' Draco looked at Blaise and smiled a smile that made Blaise smile too, ''you could always just punch people in the nose to make me laugh again.'' Draco and Blaise laughed.

''You jerk! I thought you had forgotten about that! If you want me to punch people so badly why don't I start with you?'' Blaise was playfully punching him in the arm. ''Well I guess I always could.'' They both sighed and flopped down on the bed.

''Well I need my beauty sleep so get out of my room!'' Blaise shot him a look. ''Please?'' Draco flashed one his million dollar smiles. Blaise shook his head in disbelief.

''Oh, Draco. Draco, Draco, Draco. What am I to do with you?''

Hermione sat in her bed. Not being able to sleep. She was afraid to go downstairs and get her a book from her trunk. Afraid Draco's parents would still be up and lurking around. So she sat up listening to the muffled noises from outside.

She got up and looked out the window. Hermione had always loved nature. Just preferred to stay inside and read. Then she noticed what a great view Draco's house has. The trees looked so scary in the daylight but at night they just looked so pretty that Hermione wished she knew how to draw. There were the animals prowling around, hunting for food. Owls hooting and flying around looking for their mates or food. The owl made Hermione think of Hedwig. And thinking of Hedwig made Hermione think of Harry and Ron. And thinking of them made her want to be at Ron's house. But then she realized that they would disapprove of her running away scold her like the lost puppy she was. But she had found a new owner. One that understands her better, one who had had the same things happen to him also.

She sat, thinking. Then slowly drifted to sleep. Dreaming of a better tomorrow and yummy breakfast. But if she had stayed awake a few minutes longer, she would have noticed the tiny owl coming towards her with a letter attached to its foot.
