Cara's POV

This could not be happening. This is some nightmare and I'm actually in my bed. Yes it is definitely a nightmare. How do I wake myself up? Maybe I should pinch my arm. That should do it.

I pinched my left arm to find that I still was in the bloody Potions classroom with Draco Malfoy sitting next to me and a glass of water in my hand. Everyone was still staring at me as I clutched my stomach.

I guess it is real. I just threw up on the first day of class. I am a disaster. And what's even worse is he has to take me to the Hospital Wing. Why him? Why couldn't it have been Harry or Ron or Dani? Why must it be fucking Draco Malfoy?

"Mr. Malfoy! Get up, take Ms. Potter's arm and guide her to the wing! We do not want her to fall over again!"

I heard a collective gasp around the room. My eyes opened wide in horror. No. I cannot do this right now. What the hell was happening?

I felt a strong muscular hand grap hold my left bicep. His grip wasn't tight, it was like he was scared of what might happen if he touched me. Like I was a crystal glass.

I decided it would be best to just look at the ground. I would rather not look at everyone staring at me. Dani was right, it was scary and intimidating.

Malfoy was quick and we were out the door in seconds. I expected him to let go right when we got outside the classroom, but he still held on.

This was definitely not real. Not real at all.

We walked in silence for a long time. Honestly I never heard silence quite this loud. It was terrifying. So I did something stupid: talk.

"Draco?" I said hesitantly. His name felt strange on my lips. I hadn't said it out loud in months. It seemed so foreign, yet so familiar.

Silence.

"Drac-"

"What do you want Potter?" he said in a surprisingly quiet voice. His grip on me tightened. I winced in pain.

"Can you please loosen your grip? There is no blood circulating my arms," I replied.

I looked up at his face to see he looked shocked. Probably didn't know he was holding on so tight. I don't blame him.

"Are we going to talk about-"

"We are here."

I turned my head from him to see that we were standing in front of the doors that lead to the wing. He opened the door and led me inside. Madame Pomphrey rushed over to me and gestured for Draco to lead me toward an empty bed.

Soon enough, I was laying down on mattress looking up to his face. The nurse had left to go get some Healing Drought for my stomach and Draco and I were alone.

He turned around and was walking in the direction of the door when I spoke.

"There's an empty classroom in the Dungeons that nobody goes to. Can you meet me there at 8:00pm on Friday? I should be better by then, and I just want to talk to you-"

He stopped in his tracks as I talked. After I finished, he stood there for a second, and I was hopeful. But then he quickly started walking again. My heart sank as I heard his footsteps down the hall.

Would he come? I don't even know why I even mentioned the classroom and asking him to meet me there. It was a terrible idea and I honestly don't know what I was thinking. I must be crazy.

After five cups of Healing Drought and three nights of restlessness, Madame Pomphrey declared me okay to go back to class. She told me to take it easy and to be careful on what I eat.

Dani had come and visited me over the couple days I was sick. She gave me all the classwork that I missed, so at least I wasn't behind. Thank goodness I have a friend like her.

Harry, Ron, Hermione, and Ginny came to visit me every day as well. It was nice seeing them, and I was glad they seemed to forget about what happened on the train ride. I felt really bad afterwards. I hope they had found a trolley to sit in. But the past is in the past I guess.

He never came though. Not that I expected him to.

It was Thursday night and I was eating in The Great Hall after a long time. All the pastries looked delicious, but I willed myself not to eat too many. Meaning I only ate 3 instead of 5.

"Cara! You are not supposed to be eating that!" Dani exclaimed, as I reached for a pumpkin tart. She slapped my hand, making it burn.

"Blimey Dani! That really hurt!"

"It's for your sake, do you really want to end up back in the Hospital Wing?"

"No," I replied, slightly annoyed.

The rest of the night was a blur as Dani talked about some cute Ravenclaw boy that was in her DADA class and how she wished they were partners. I tried to pay attention, but my eyes were drooping. Probably that last bit of Drought I took before leaving the Wing.

I got up really fast as I saw other people leaving the hall. My eyes were half closed as I walked towards the Gryffindor tower. I heard Dani saying something about forgetting her bracelet and how I can go ahead. I trudged my way into the common room and up the stairs in to my warm and comfortable bed. I slipped underneath the cotton covers and in minutes I was asleep.

"Why the hell did you fucking lie to me? Why didn't you fucking tell me the truth?"

"Why the fuck would I tell Umbridge's pet that I was in a secret organization? So he can go and tell her and get me into trouble? So everyone in the group can fucking hate me?"

"DO NOT CALL ME SOMEONE'S PET!"

"That's what you were! Going around with those stupid badges pretending like you were some King, but in reality you were just following her orders like a dog-"

He raised his hand. "What the fuck did you just say? Did you just call me a dog?"

"Go ahead and hit me you foul disgusting excuse of a human-"

I stared at him and braced myself for the burn as I saw him shaking with anger and bring his hand to my cheek –

I sat up , gasping and covered in sweat. Did I just have a dream about him? And specifically of that night? I thought I had erased that from my memory. I couldn't believe that we both yelled at each other like that. I didn't know I was capable of such harsh language.

He never hit me. Just as his hand had reached 2 cm from my cheek, he stopped. He dropped his hand and looked at me. Then he turned around and left me alone in the darkness.

We didn't talk for weeks.

Why am I thinking about him, I have a test today I think, today is Friday right?

Today is Friday.

I'm meeting him today. If he comes.

A.N-oooh who's excited? keep reviewing guys! i love you all(:
