I feel a little bit left of center
but then again we've all been there before
Every time I see a lost cause coming
it's nothing less, nothing more

The next day felt like it would never end. Darcy's head was filled with endless thoughts of that fairly disturbing dream. It drifted through her mind at random moments, driving her crazy. She could barley concentrate on her studies, and her sense of humor was slowly falling down the drain.
That day in transfiguration, Darcy accidentaly transfigured a chair into a chinchilla, and her and Fred spent the rest of the class trying to catch the damn devil.
Things didn't go much better than that...
Danielle was worried. Her sister was inevitably going downhill... fast. her writing was clumsy and her jokes lacked the usual enthusiasm. Hair, a disarray, and their clothes no longer had a 'right off the same clothing rack' appeal. It disturbed her...
George tried many times to get it out of the stubborn 16 year old, but all she ever did was give some quirky remark and wave it away with one, pale, slim hand. Fred also tried, but all he got was a snub and a casual smirk.
Darcy was going... going... gone.

Every time I get lost in paradise
I find a way to screw it up somehow
It's not the way it's supposed to be
but it'll do for now

Esme sat on her four poster, doing extremely mind retching history of magic homework. Her quill scratched on the heavy stack of parchment as her nose twitched in consentration. Hogwarts: A History lay sprawld out beside her curled up knees, and the pages leafed through as a breeze came through the open window. She smelled the air and her skin prickled. She hated being inside at night. It bothered her to no end. Her insides churned in longing, but she would conform to the rules... for once.
As she started to finish, she picked up Hogwarts: A History and read a bit about her fairly new school. It somewhat facinated her. Her long fingers flicked through the pages as her honey colored eyes scimed across the pages. Suddenly, she felt someone at her door.
Pansy Parkinson. She stood there with her hands on her petite little hips and her lips stuck in a weird smirk.
"I hear you're older sister... What was her name? Darcy?" She thought for moment, "yeah thats it... I hear she going downhill... A little," She spun her index finger in a swirl around her temple," Coo-coo..!"
Esme's lip twitched and she just kept reading. Until Pansy said something she'd regret...
"I guess thats nothing new to your ears is it?" Pansy hissed, literally, "All of you are a few marbles short, aren't you?" She snickered before saying, "You all mistakes... Especially you!"
Esme flung her legs off the bed, Hogwarts: A History slamming shut as she lept off her bed. She landed right infront of Pansy, crouching like a cat. She straightened up to come face to face with the shocked Slytherin Princess. She snarled and and spit in her face. Pansy freaked and took a punch at Esme. She easily dodged and grabbed Pansy by the throught.
"Keep you stupid, uneducated mouth closed or I'll send you flying home to momma without a train..." She closed her knuckles tighter around Pansy's neck, but not enough for her to not be able to breathe. Pansy laughed a bit and flipped her off, mouthing, 'Try!'.
Esme laughed a very sinister laugh, and kicked open the door that Pansy had recently closed. It burst open, and she put Pansy in the doorframe and paused.
"Last chance..." She growled in her low, scottish accent,"Princess?"
Pansy only laughed. Esme smirked and snarled, then threw Pansy out into the common room. She landed with a thump on the floor, and sat up with a bloody nose. She looked down the hall to where Esme stood, her hands on her round hips, smiling. Pansy relised how far she had been thrown and stood up quickly, tears in her eyes. She ran off to probably find her Dracy Poo, and tell her little sob story... all in her favour.

When you're right, you're right
Everything else in my life just might be wrong
You're wrong all the time

Esme now sat on her window sill, giggling huskily about the look on the little flowers face when she threw her from the door. The breeze caught in her white-blond hair and it blew around her chisled face, blowing around her relaxed jaw. She sighed and woshed to be outside, breathing in the air and gazeing at the moon. Her spine tingled with the thought. She wished to let loose, be wild... herself.
She could never be that way again.
She sat her chin in her palm and sighed again, this time thinking of what Pmasy had said about Darcy. Was it true? Was she really that bad? She would have to ask Danni tomorrow.
"So, you're the one who made little Pansy Wansy come crying to her 'Dracy Poo'." a sexy, spine tingling voice came from behind Esme. She wipped around and saw Draco Malfoy laying on her bed, arms behind his head, eyes closed.
"Jesus, Draco!" Esme exclaimed, sliding(like a cat mind you) off her window perch. "You nearly gave me a... Nevermind. I can't get those." She laughed, but Draco looked a bit confused.
"What do you mean by that?" he asked, sitting up, "You were going to say heart attack, weren't you?"
"Um... yeah... uh... HOW IN THE MOONS SAKE DID YOU GET IN HERE!?"
Draco laughed and layed back down, streching his arms over his head. "I have my ways, Es'."

So far so good 'cause no one knows I'm faking
I wish I could show you the toll it's taking
Sometimes I live as if there's no tomorrow
So far so good

Esme laughed and went to sit by him.
"So what did Pansy do to make you do that?" He asked, looking at her with his sky blue eyes, "You threw her far... she must have been herself, right?"
Esme giggled. "Somewhat. She insulted my sisters and I. That doesn't go over well with us..." Draco nodded in acknowledgement, and Esme noticed his shirt was unbottoned to the middle of his chest. Her eyes accidentily wandered down it, taking in every inch of him, every smell. She snapped out of it went he sat up, startling her. He was quite a bit taller than her even sitting down, so she was looking at his neck. Her honey orbs looked up and saw Draco smirking.He leant down a bit and the smell of his colonge and sweat filled her nose and she quietly purred alittle. She mentally slapped herself for doing that but he seemed not to notice.

I better find a way to cross my fingers
half the luck'll get me twice as far
I'm sick and tired of coming up for air
it shouldn't be this hard

His eyes met hers and he smiled.
"You confuse me, Es'" he cocked his head to the side in an irresitable way, "I respect a woman who can stand up to that bitch of a girl." he was so close to Esme's face she could smell his breath and it made her spine tingle. She hated this... He was probably her only friend at the moment. She couldn't bare to lose him.
"Draco..." she purred, and she slapped herself again.
He didn't say anything but planted a soft kiss on her lips. He tasted good to her and she almost whined when he pulled away.
"See in the morning, Es'," he cooed, kissing her on the cheek. He got up and walked out of her room, closing the door quietly behind him.

Every little bit'll help I wonder
if it's enough or did I cross the line
The kitchen counter is a bad reminder of a better time

Esme sat there shocked for moment before slamming onto her bed a screaming in delight. She stopped when she heard her roomates Aimee, Rose, and Roxette came in the room laughing.
"Hey, Esme!" they chimed. They were always nice to her, but she didn't consider them friends... but maybe she would one day.
"Hey guys!" she replied.
"We just saw draco come from this room!" Aimee cried.
"Yeah!" Roxette joined, going to her bed and plopping herself down."How did he managed that!?"
"I have no idea..." Esme said truthfully.
"Well, no matter, "Rose replied."Night guys!" She laughed and climbed into bed after she changed into her p.j's.
How did you do that, Draco? Esme thought as she lay in bed that night. I'll figure it out. Just you wait, human boy... I'll hunt you in my girl skin... but celebrate as a vampire...

When you're right
Everything else you messed up just might be wrong
You're wrong all the time
