I. Do. Not. Own. This was originally written by StarryEyedLove on Quizilla but her evil cousin deleted all her stories. Someone sent me these and I thought I would share them with the rest of you lovelies... So! Without further ado, I give you... Meetings in the Tower. Happy Reading!
Draco flew gracefully into the room and touched down onto the floor. He dismounted and laid his Nimbus 2001 gently on top of your trunk before turning to face you.
"So you wanted to see me, huh?" you asked walking slowly over to him.
"Well I knew you wouldn't be able to come to the tower tonight with all the shit that Flint put you through today and I didn't think I could go a whole night without seeing you" he said the last part in a whisper.
"Aww- aren't you just a sweetheart" you laughed giving him a gentle hug. "How did you know which window to go to?" you asked curiously.
"Oh well... I remember you dumping a bucket of water on Pansy's head last year from this window, so I figured it would be the right one" he answered and you laughed out loud at the memory.
"Look I want to thank you for buying me the broom Draco, you really didn't have to" you said seriously, "I feel like I owe you something".
"You don't owe me anything Anna, like I said you deserve a broom as amazing as you" he replied making your cheeks blush pink.
"I really love it" you responded, "no one has ever bought me something so nice before" you whispered. He smiled obviously happy that you had liked his present so much. "I like your little alias too, my heart's seeker huh?" you laughed.
"Well I thought it was clever" he replied with a little smirk.
"Very clever indeed" you agreed, "anyways I still feel like I need to give you something in return, anything you've been wanting?" you asked.
"You really want to know?" he asked.
"Spill" you answered.
"The only thing I really want that I can think of right now..." he paused, "is too kiss you" he finished.
Your heart skipped a beat as he said this; you hadn't seen it coming at all. You had never in your sixteen years on earth really kisseda boy. You knew Draco must have kissed at least half the girls in Slytherin, which intimidated you. What if you were a terrible kisser? But you couldn't deny how much you wanted to kiss him in that moment as you stared across the dark room into his pale blue eyes that almost seemed to glitter in the moonlight. Before you even knew what you were doing, your legs were bringing you closer and closer toward him until your faces were just inches apart.
He wrapped his arms tenderly around your waist pulling your body close to his. In turn you put your arms around his neck and leaned in a little so your noses were nearly touching. His warm breath hitting your skin sent pleasant shiver up your spine and as he moved in closer your heart began to beat out of your chest. Then finally his lips met yours in what was your very first kiss; and you couldn't have imagined a more perfect one. His kiss was nothing like you had expected it to be. It was sweet and gentle, yet passionate at the same time almost like he was putting all his emotion and everything he was feeling into the kiss. His left hand rested on your hip while the other cupped your cheek softly.
Reluctantly you both pulled away, but you did not let each other go. You stood there in the center of the room in the other's arms just staring into each other's eyes and although it was silent, you felt like you were both telling each other everything.
"That was my first kiss" you whispered finally breaking out the trance his eyes had put you in.
"Really? I never would have guessed" he replied.
"Honestly? So I wasn't terrible at it?" you chuckled lightly, still staring into his eyes.
"It was the most amazing kiss I've ever had" he said for an answer making you blush a deep shade of red that luckily couldn't be noticed in the darkness.
Then suddenly you both jumped as you heard footsteps swiftly approaching the dorm room door and the sounds of girls giggling.
"You'd better go" you whispered slightly panicked as the footsteps drew ever closer.
Draco nodded and grabbed his broom hastily from the trunk and mounted. In a swift movement he planted a final, parting kiss on your lips and just like that he flew off out the window into the darkness of the night leaving you in a sort of trance. You watched him disappear and wished so badly he could have stayed with you and kissed you just one last time.
The door of the dorm room swung open, but you didn't even notice. You were still standing in the exact same spot where Draco had left you staring dreamily out the window.
"Do you reckon she has finally lost it?" Padma laughed as she waved her hand in front of your face, finally snapping you out of your daze.
"Watch it Patil!" you snapped batting her hand out of your face and catching her by surprise.
"Sorry just trying to wake you up, thought you might have fallen asleep standing up" she sneered.
"Riiight" you said raising an eyebrow at her before making your way over to your bed.
"You missed quite the party tonight Darcy. After Roger and everyone got out of the Hospital Wing we all celebrated in the Common Room! Roger even gave Padma a kiss on the cheek!" Stacey Rowland squealed.
"Wow a kiss on the cheek, eh? No offence mate, but Roger kisses everyone on the cheek. Hell I think I've seen him kiss Freddie!" you laughed.
Padma glared daggers at you before flicking her hair and lying down on her bed. "You're just jealous Darcy that's all! I bet you've never even kissed a boy" she said smugly.
'Oh yes I have' you thought silently, but you didn't reply, you were in too good of a mood to let Padma get to you. You slowly drifted off into a peaceful sleep, replaying Draco's kiss over and over in your mind.
"Good morning Luna!" you said happily as you skipped across the Common Room to sit next to her on the couch facing the fireplace.
"Well I see you're all healed up then" Luna laughed, a little surprised that you were in such a cheerful mood.
"Well mostly, still got some cuts and bruises here and there, but overall Madame Pomfrey's potions work wonders!" you replied plopping down beside her.
"I watched the match yesterday, bloody brutal!" Luna exclaimed, "I've never been so amused in my life" she added making you laugh.
"Brutal doesn't even begin to describe it!" you said showing her the bruise on your stomach. Her eyes widened in shock as she saw it. "Anyways enough about my battle scars, I'm more interested in your love life Miss Lovegood" you said cheerily.
"My love life? Whatever do you want to know about my love life?" Luna asked innocently.
"Hmm I don't know, there is the little fact you're going with Potter to the Halloween Ball!" you exclaimed.
"You're going with Harry Potter to the Halloween Ball?" Cho asked Luna rudely as she walked by overhearing your conversation.
"Yeah he asked her a few days ago, right Luna?" you responded quickly.
"Yeah" Luna answered shortly.
"I can't believe he would want to go with you, he's obviously lowered his standards since I ditched him" Cho said snottily.
"No, I believe it's quite the contrary Cho" you hissed defensively, no one was going to talk to your friend like that.
"Oh yes, because some loony with stringy blonde hair, bug eyes, a whack job father, and a mother who blew herself up is so much better than me" Cho replied sarcastically. Anger pulsed through your body as she said this; she had just pulled Luna's parents into the mix. How dare she bring up Luna's mother like that!
Luna's eyes had turned into slits as Cho said this, but you could see hurt shining in them. You stood up from where you were standing in got right in Cho's face, which was quite a task seeing as she was 5'7 and you were 4'11.
"Don't you ever talk like that to her or any of my friends again" you said in dangerous whisper.
"I'll say whatever I bloody want Darcy and there is nothing you and your little psychotic friend can do about it" Cho spat aggressively.
With this you lost all self-control and before you even realized what you were doing your fist had made contact with Cho's jaw and she was knocked flat on her ass.
"You- you punched me!" Cho muttered out as she clutched her jaw in pain.
"You deserved it Chang! And I suggest you heed my warning or you'll be having another lovely meeting with my fist, understand?" you hissed.
She didn't answer, but instead just stood up and scurried quickly away through the portrait hole.
"You didn't have to do that..." Luna sighed, "she's going to get you in trouble with Flitwick".
"No I had to do it, it's been a long time coming" you answered, "and don't worry about Flitwick, I don't think she'll be admitting I punched her to anyone anytime soon".
"Thanks for sticking up for me, I- I really appreciate it" Luna said quietly, her brown eyes still looking very depressed.
"She had no right to bring up your mother like that" you whispered pulling her into a hug.
She hugged back and a few tears rolled down her cheeks. "Anna?" she whispered.
"Yeah Luna?" you replied.
"Is what Cho said true? I mean why would Harry want to date me? He could do better..." she mumbled out.
"Better than you Luna? I don't think so" you replied with a smile, "Harry really likes you and I know it, because he told me alright?" you said.
She smiled at you and nodded weakly, "I have to get to class, I'll see you later?"
"Count on it!" you said giving her one last hug before she walked through the portrait hole.
After a few minutes or so you snatched up your book bag and headed down to the Great Hall for a quick breakfast before you had to go to Ancient Runes.
"Hey Potter, Carrot Top!" you greeted as you took a seat across from Harry and Ron at the Gryffindor table.
"Why do you always have to call me bloody Carrot Top?" Ron asked.
"I don't always call you Carrot Top! Some days it's Fireball or Mr. Tomato Head!" you laughed and he rolled his eyes at you.
"Great job in the match yesterday, Anna! I wanted to see you in the Hospital Wing, but Madame Pomfrey wouldn't let anyone inside" Harry said.
"Yeah it was packed in there! Basically the entire Slytherin and Ravenclaw team" you laughed, "I can't wait to see Gryffindor vs. Slytherin, now that is going to be brutal!" you exclaimed referring to the intense rivalry between the two houses.
"Yeah I'm really not looking forward to it" Harry said nervously.
"We don't have Fred and George as our beaters anymore. I mean Dean and Seamus are decent, but when it comes game time I don't really trust them from keeping a bludger from knocking me off my broom" Harry continued.
"I'm sure you'll be alright; Dean and Seamus are pretty decent players. Plus you're the best seeker in the school" you added encouragingly.
Harry smiled broadly as you said this and you noticed him reach back and purposely mess up his hair a little.
"So Fireball, have you asked Herms to the Halloween Ball?" you asked inquisitively.
"What? Uh- I- well I d-don't know" he garbled out turning as red as his hair.
"In translation that means he hasn't gotten up the guts to ask her yet" Harry explained.
"Oh just suck it up Tomato, she'll say yes. She's got a little crush on you my man" you laughed.
This only succeeded in making Ron turn an even deeper shade of red and look down at his pancakes muttering something incomprehensible.
"What about you Anna, have you got a date to the ball yet?" Harry asked.
"Nope, guess not!" you replied. You hadn't really thought about the whole date thing yet, you had been so busy worrying about everyone else's dates.
"Well only one more week left!" Ron said.
"No way? Only a week! I don't even have a bloody costume!" you exclaimed.
"Don't worry there is a Hogsmeade trip this weekend, just buy one then. That's what I'm doing" Harry replied calming you down a great deal.
"Well that solves that issue, but as far as the date thing goes I don't know mate! I may just have to ask one of the poor third years to go with me" you joked.
"I'm sure you won't have to resort to that" Harry laughed, "I know plenty of guys who would give their right arm to go with you" he added.
You cocked your eyebrow at him in disbelief, but he seemed to be serious. You just shrugged slightly before standing up with a piece of toast in hand. "I've got to jet, Ancient Runes starts in ten minutes!" you said before bounding out of the Great Hall while nibbling on your toast.
"Anna..." someone whispered and suddenly you felt someone grasp your arm tightly and pull you into one of Mr. Filch's small supply closets.
"Woah, what do you think you're doing?" you exclaimed not knowing who had grabbed you.
"It's me Draco" Draco laughed before muttering a spell causing his wand to illuminate the dark closet.
"Oh you scared the crap out of me!" you laughed relieved it was him. "So what did you pull me in here for?" you asked. He smirked at you and suddenly realized why, "ah- you just wanted to snog before class, eh?" you laughed.
He shrugged, "can you blame me?" he laughed gently pushing you up against one of the walls. Your heart began to beat faster as he kissed you even more passionately than he had the night before. You willingly kissed him back running your fingers through his smooth blonde hair. You felt his tongue brush up against your lips looking for admission and you willingly obliged. Goosebumps broke out on your skin as you felt his hands tracing every curve of your body and you gasped as his hand ran up your thigh.
"You're going to make me late for class" you said to the top of his head as he began to kiss your neck.
"Oh come on, who needs class?" he asked looking deeply into your eyes.
"I need class" you said sadly, "I get in enough trouble, if I don't have good grades to make up for it they won't have a reason not to expel me" you replied.
He sighed desolately and nodded, "alright, alright! But I wanted to talk to you about something".
"The Halloween Ball, should we- should we go with different dates?" he asked.
"I guess that would be for the best" you said in a depressed tone clutching his hand in yours.
Draco looked saddened by your answer, but you knew he was expecting it. "That means I have to go with damn Pansy Parkinson" he whined.
"Oh you'll live" you laughed, "we can have some fun in the tower afterwards" you said with a wink.
He smiled widely as you said this, "sounds like a plan!" he exclaimed.
"Well I've got to get to class Mr. Malfoy, I'm already twenty minutes late!" you said. "I'll see you later" you whispered giving him one last teasing kiss on the lips before strutting off out the closet and toward Ancient Runes.
"Where have you been Miss Darcy?" Professor Florence asked annoyed as you walked into class.
"I'm sorry Professor Florence, I got lost" you lied with an innocent smile.
"You're in your sixth year Miss Darcy, you should be able to find your way around the school by now" he answered irritably.
"Well my sense of direction has been a little off since Flint knocked me in the head yesterday" you replied shooting Flint a nasty look.
Professor Florence just sighed, "Five points from Ravenclaw, take your seat Miss Darcy".
"Gladly!" you replied cheerfully sinking down into an open seat and to your surprise you saw a smiling Blaise in the seat beside you. "You're in this class?" you whispered in surprise as Professor Florence began to talk...
