Lizzie slowly made her way back to her dormitory. She was in a state of shock. I can't believe that really happened. She felt numb, but at the same time, she was in clandestinely happy. She realized that it was four in the morning and figured she should go to bed. However, when she lay down, she accepted that she was not tired at all. She couldn't stop thinking about what just happened…

Dear Diary,

Oh. My. Gosh! That was the best kiss I have ever had! You don't even know who I'm talking about. It's Draco! I…All I want to do is kiss him again. Hermione was completely wrong…I don't even know why I listened to her.

But…I wish he didn't just run out like he did. I mean, I think it's different for him, but why did he have to rush away like that. Hopefully I'll be able to talk to him and figure this out because I have never felt this way before…about anyone.

I have to tell someone…meaning Jake. He's the only one I feel comfortable telling. With everyone else, I'm afraid I'll get shunned. They definitely have him all wrong. He is a better guy than they give him credit for. Well, I got to go.

Lizzie

The next day, Lizzie searched for Jake in the morning, and, thankfully, found him alone outside. "Jake!" she yelled as she ran to him.

He quickly said hello in return. He seemed reserved about something which is odd for Jake. Oh well, he will tell me if he wants to. She pushed past that and told him everything that happened. She was so excited that she didn't notice how Jake's face continued to get angrier. At the end of her rant, she looked to Jake for his approval. This was when she realized that something was extremely wrong.

"I don't know how to tell you this Lizzie…but, it seems that Malfoy has done some damage control…"

"What do you mean?" Lizzie was unsure of how to take that statement.

"I guess last night and this morning, he has been telling everybody that he and Pansy, whoever she is, are officially dating…" He trailed off at the end, "He said that she was the perfect girl for him." No. No, no, no. This can't be right.

"You're joking." Lizzie said flatly. She did not want to believe this. I feel so stupid…of course he wouldn't like me like that. She adverted her eyes from his.

"I knew you were going to say that. Lizzie," He gently pushed her head back so he could make eye contact, "Just forget about him. My guess is that he is going to be a complete arse to you." Lizzie shook her head in disbelief. No! He is different than that! Why does nobody understand this? She was trying to be optimistic, but she couldn't help the hopelessness of her situation. "Lizzie, look at me. I just want you to be prepared." She couldn't even find the words to express herself at the moment. Figures, the one boy that I like turns out to be an idiot, but everyone warned me about that. Ugh! I should have been more careful…Lizzie couldn't help but feel disappointed in herself. Jake noticed this right away,"So…you need me to kick some butt?" Trying to make her feel better.

Lizzie couldn't even bring herself to meet his gaze, "No…it's fine." He tried to say something more, but she stopped him. "I'll be fine. I promise. Thanks for telling me."

He gave her a sincere smile and pulled her into a hug. At least I'll always have Jake to put me back together. She felt like breaking down…why did I let my guard down? Why do I even feel this strongly towards him? He is a freaking jerk…he was kind to me one moment and then inconsiderate the next. Lizzie, with Jake by her side, walked back into the castle. I didn't know that his effect on me was this big. That's definitely going to change.

Lizzie and Jake went in to the Great Hall for breakfast. Mostly everyone was there. Lizzie couldn't help but notice that Draco wasn't present. She quietly ate her breakfast. The rest of her friends definitely noticed, but Lizzie was thankful that they didn't say anything. She waited until they were done with breakfast, and then they all headed to their first class of the day: Defense against the Dark Arts. Lizzie was trailing behind the others. The turned the corner, and when they did Hermione let out a quick gasp and looked in Lizzie's direction. What? Lizzie looked at what made her gasp, and her jaw dropped.

In the middle of the corridor (yes the middle, they didn't even try to hide themselves) was Draco and Pansy…making out. It was disgusting; they were groping each other and sucking each other's face. Surprisingly, this brought a smile to Lizzie's lips. That is so shady. Fine, you want to play that way? Lizzie quickly drew out her wand, "Petrificus Totalus!" Every one of her friends laughed at the site of Draco and Pansy jumping away from that. They were in such a state of panic that she couldn't help but join in.

Draco quickly stood up facing her and pulled out his wand. "What the hell was that for?" He asked.

"If I wanted to watch you and 'that thing' get it on…well, I'd probably kill myself before doing that so I'm not even going to finish that." She finished, and Draco gave her a murderous stare. "Maybe you should think twice before making out in the hallway." She said in a mockingly happy voice. I hate him.

She pushed past him and walked into the classroom. Hermione quickly followed after her. "Lizzie, what happened?" How does this girl know everything about me? Was she really that observant when it came to me and Draco…or should I say Malfoy. Ugh…whatever, I'll get over him.

"I'll tell you later."

She felt his eyes on her when he walked into the classroom. It took everything she had, but she was not going to look at him. She composed her face to make it look like she was having the time of her life. I wonder if he feels bad for what he did…no! Don't think like that! Of course he doesn't care…you were just another girl to him…I'll get through it. Ha. At least I've got friends, that's more than he has…

Sorry!! It had to happen lol...but don't worry, they will get back together!!
