A horribly windy Saturday afternoon you woke up to. You were the only girl in your dorm still in bed. You had been up laughing and snogging with Draco the previous night until almost 3am. You groggily arose from the comfort of your warm bed and lazily stomped across your room and into the bathroom. Only seconds later did you return to pick up two towels and your shower bag before you stomped back into the bathroom again sighing loudly.
You turned on the taps, tampering with the hot and cold ones until the temperature suited your needs. You stripped off and jumped inside. At the feeling of the warm water gently flowing down your body you sighed and thought about your year so far. Indeed you were only here three weeks, but within those three weeks you had surprised yourself and others.
There was the whole you and Draco story. If somebody had told you last year that you would be oogling over Draco Malfoy you would have conjured up a slippery trout and beat them numerously over the head with it. But now that it was happening- in your reality it seemed almost perfect.
Then there was your so-called parents. Parents?! Sheesh! They shouldn't even be aloud to call themselves that over the way they've been treating you since the beginning of summer. You had the run-in with your father the night he was drunk. It was of a rare occasion that it happened but none the less it wasn't the first time he had beaten you. After that oh-so-glorious night you nursed a split lip and a broken wrist.
Then there was the stupid fights with your mother. She was the most un-motherly person in the whole world, yet people praised her for raising such a wonderfully mannered and beautiful young lady. That woman was forever pestering you about your appearance. Yes people said you were beautiful but that was only when you dressed to impress- and you rarely did that. Your mother was forever trying to bring you on shopping trips and to the salons and beauty parlours.
"Only the best for my little Deborah!" She'd exclaim, while pinching your cheeks as if you were a child. You'd squat her hands away with a sheepish smirk on your face. While she'd get all embarrassed in front of her snooty, stuck-up friends. She'd then scream your face off when she'd bring you home. Make you do lots and lots of chores, now indeed it doesn't sound all that bad, but she would tell the house elves to go home and she'd make you do everything. You were like Cinderella minus the ugly step sisters, and you hated it!!
Your thoughts were disturbed when you accidentally rubbed some suds into your eyes. You sighed and hopped about in the shower as your eyes stung from the pain. You finally rinsed the suds from your eyes and hopped out of the shower and wrapped your body in a towel. The bathroom was scented with a mixture of vanilla and roses. Steam covered the mirror. You childishly walked over to it and scraped your name onto it with your finger, drawing a love heart underneath it, and then Dracos name under that. You smiled, happy with your doings and then left the bathroom feeling a little more awake and a little more eager to start off the day.
You dried your hair before you found some clothes. You put on a slytherin green and black halter neck top with a pair of loose jeans and your dressing you happily stomped down the stairs with your bag thrown upon your shoulder and into the common room you went.
"Oh so she is alive." A voice spoke up from behind the couch. Juliet's face appeared. You snorted and skipped across the common room.
"Good morning to you too. I slept very well thanks for asking." You sarcastically replied as you took a seat on a single chair. You faced both Juliet and Nott. "Jeez! Do you two ever leave each other go?!"
Juliet was snuggled up to a half sleeping Theodore Nott, whose arm was lazily thrown over her in protective and cute way. She beamed a smile across to you and you smiled back knowing she was indeed very happy in this relationship.
You shivered a little and looked around the low-ceilinged room. Not many filled the regularly buzzing room. You wondered when everyone was. You looked back over to Juliet who seemed to be dozing off into the land of nod so you lightly draped a light blanket over her body. She smiled sleepily and muttered a barely audible thank you and you got up and left the common room. You decided on where to go first. You walked through the twists and turns of the dungeons many dimly lit corridors and finally made it to the entrance hall. Another shiver erupted throughout your body as you shook a little- half contemplating going to the library to finish off Snapes essay. You took a glance at your watch. 12.45 it read, so you decided to go to the Great hall for Lunch (or breakfast in your case.)
You walked through the large doors and slowly walked towards the Slytherin table. You spotted Tracey Davis as she waved at you from her seat, you smiled and waved back less enthusiastically.
"There's my girl!" A loud voice boomed across the hall. Draco quickly jumped up from his seat and strode over to you kissing you tenderly on the forehead.
"What's wrong?!" you asked as you both walked towards the table. You took a seat and then looked down the table to where Draco had been sitting before you arrived. Pansy was sitting there with an annoyed look on her face. She caught you staring and gave you an evil glare before getting up and stomping out.
"That.. " Draco pointed to where Pansy's figure had disappeared out into the hallway "is whats wrong!" He laughed as you took you hand and kissed it. "Enjoy your sleep?" He asked as he affectionately nuzzled your cheek with his nose. You smiled and grabbed a few strawberries and began eating them.
"Uh.. Huh! You?" you asked with your mouth half full. Draco smiled and nodded.
"I had this amazing dream! There was me, you a full bottle of whipped cream and we were-"
"DRACO.. thats enough of that!" You insisted on shoving a strawberry into his mouth so he couldn't continue talking. You heard many groans and sighs from a few of Dracos friends.
"Ahh Malfoy that was beginning to sound good mate!" An older males voice spoke. You glared at the boy who seemed familiar to you, but the name left your head.
"Yeah Draco! But I don't think you're the only one dreaming about that!" Another voice chimed in, snickering afterwards. He was soon quietened when Draco death glared him and wrapped an arm protectively around your waist.
"Well the dream isn't a..about her exactly. I mean.. err, not saying that we.. we wouldn't dream about her because w..we would but it's just- eh.." The older and intimidated boy closed his mouth and turned away from Dracos glare as he began talking to another person. Draco smirked and kissed you on the cheek as you finished off the last strawberry.
"Ready to leave?" he asked. You smiled and nodded before you both got up and walked out of the Great Hall hand in hand.
Another shiver quickly crept up your spine as you entered the cold and damp dungeons once again.
"Here." Was all Draco said as he pulled his 'Montrose Magpies' Quidditch hoodie over his head and handed it to you. You smiled and took the overly-large hoodie throwing it over you head. You snuggled into the warm fabric as the huge jumper covered half your body. Dracos scent was still on the hoodie, you smiled and took in a long smell before looking down at your covered body.
"You are huge!"
"Why I believe I am, thanks!" Draco smirked.
"Not down there you perv. Your just huge!!" you slapped him and he looked at you, a little laugh escaping his lips. You hands were covered totally by the sleeves and the jumper hid half your body.
"No, I think that you are just small- really small actually." You scoffed.
A smirk spread across his face. He pulled you up over his shoulder like a bag of coal and laughed again, this time it almost resembled a cackle.
"Draaaaaaaaaco!!" you whined as he ran through out the never-ending corridors of the dungeons slapping your bum whenever he felt it was appropriate. After turning a corner Draco came to an abrupt stop. He quickly yet gently put you on the floor and you slapped his arm. You attention was immediately drawn to a certain greasy Professor.
"Mr. Malfoy, Ms Carrow gallivanting throughout the dungeons is not something id like to witness both of you doing again. It is dangerous and slightly immature. Mr. Malfoy as a prefect you should no better than this." He began briskly walking passed you both, his robes billowing around him.
"You've gotten away with it this time, once more and you'll receive a detention." Draco snorted and you hit his arm again. "Both of you!" the professor shrieked as he turned down a long a winding corridor.
******* Fast forward to 6pm ********
Quite a large crowd of Slytherins were huddled on the main couches in the Slytherin common room. There were most of the 6th year class, which was mainly you, Draco and all your friends. There were a few from the older class such as Adrian Pucey, Christopher Warrington and Jonathon Montague. (I made up both Christopher and Jonathon because there aren't any first names given on the HP lexicon! Hope you dont mind! lol) and a few younger students also. Most gossiped about last years first night out in Hogsmeade while others tried to predict what was going to happen tonight. All in all everyone was excited.
You went to dinner first like another other night. Draco seemed pretty happy, he glared the living daylights out of some Hufflepuff guy and then had a go at Potter. It was quite amusing but you were worried some teacher would overhear and give him a detention. You all ate, created a bit of a ruckus and then retired to your common room. Or so thats what everyone thought. Indeed you all retreated back to your common rooms but later on when the castle was quiet you all broke off into pairs and snuck out. The deal was that if someone got caught, they got caught and they weren't aloud rat up on anyone else. You all agreed and set off in small groups.
To a group there were around five maybe six Slytherins. There was you, Draco, Juliet, Nott, Crabbe and Goyle in one group and you set off through out Hogwarts to seek your destination: HOGSMEADE!
Both yourself and Juliet would break into song every so often due to the excitement and adrenalin surging through your bodies or else you two would start humming the theme song to James Bond. Strangely enough Goyle recognised the James Bond song and started humming it too earning a nasty glare from the others. You and Juliet giggle and linked him and quietly hummed the song climbing the stairs to the third floor. You had finally reached the statue of the humpbacked witch- the secret passage leading from Hogwarts to Hogsmeade.
"Oh here we are!" Juliet half yelled. She was hushed and recieved a light push from Draco. She glared at him then stuck out her tongue pushing him back and skipping off before he could retaliate!
"Ok. Well go on.." Draco pushed you all quietly towards the entrance.
"Where exactly does this passage lead? You whispered nervously.
"Hogsmeade.. DUH!" Crabbe muttered, slapping his head with his palm. You snorted and turned to face Draco.
"Where exactly in Hogsmeade?"
"Uh.." Draco scratched his head "..honeydukes isn't it?"
"Honeydukes? Wont that be.. err.. closed it's past 7" You taped your watch with your index finger and sighed. Draco rose and eyebrow.
"Yeah it'll be closed, but I've got all that sorted." A childish grin spread across his face as he pushed Crabbe and Goyle towards the passageway. He then grabbed you and put you in, he kept his hand draped around your shoulder as ye all stumbled into the dark passageway.
"Lumos" you muttered. The tip of your want lit up and the passageway brightened up a little. The others followed suit and you all quickly walked towards honeydukes. Everyone was quiet along the way and you couldn't help but imagine what would happen if you all got caught. Would it lead to a series of detentions? Or maybe even a suspension from the school entirely? You didn't want to find out and that was for sure.
The tunnel was getting smaller and smaller and at some stage both Goyle and Dracos heads were almost touching the ceiling. By the time you reached the end of the tunnel it was brighter so you didn't need your wands anymore. Finally ou found yourself in a musky cellar.
You looked around and found boxes upon boxes of sweets. It was like a little chocolate heaven, something almost every child had dreamed about. You were walking around looking through a few boxes when you noticed a figure come from the shadows.
"Hmm chocoballs.. Ooooh fudge flies my favourite.. AHHHHH!!" You let out a loud scream. Draco spun around grabbing you and pulling you into him protectively.
"There's somebody coming Draco somebody whom I dont recognise as a Hogwarts student Draco" You pointed behind Draco and let out another scream as the figure came out into the light.
"Merlin's Beard Ambrosius! We thought you were a teacher." Draco still held you but walked over to the man you had noticed coming from the shadows. He held out a had and Draco took it, shaking it both chuckling as if they were old friends.
"Now now Draco less time for chatting more time for getting you lot out of my cellar. If Albus knew I was still helping you Slytherins escape to Hogsmeade he would be very disappointed" This man, Ambrosius, as Draco had called him was the owner of honeydukes. He placed a hand on your back and motioned towards a trap door in the ceiling. "C'mon better leave you lot out. Are there more on the way?"
Draco shrugged his shoulders and pulled the latch of the door before climbing up the ladder. He threw down his hand to you and you took it, he helped you climb up and then waited for the owner to climb up.
"We'll be on our way. Ambrosius you are the man" Draco winked as he pulled open the shop door and walked out. The rest of the group following after him.
"Whoa Draco that was awesome" Nott high-fived Draco and then put his arms around Juliet. Draco did the same to you as you all walked towards the Three Broom Sticks.
Surprisingly the three broomsticks was only gently packed. It seems that you were one of the groups who had arrived late. You and Draco squeezed your way trough the crowd and up to the bar ordering two Butterbeers. You took a seat on tall bar stool while Draco leaned against the counter. You must admit he was practically screaming sex appeal and you weren't the only one noticing it. Some girls who were passing smiled at him, most weren't even Hogwarts students so it ticked you off a little. He's just raise his eye brows and smile nervously back at them before looking at you and then squeezing your hand. One or two made sure they pushed themselves up against him while ordering drinks from the bar and by then you were very pissed off and were about to jump up and say something when Pansy walked up. You closed your mouth and watched as she walked straight toward Draco a Butterbeer in her hand. Draco looked at you and then back at her gulping. He almost knew something was about to happen, but he didn't know what.
"Draaaaaaaaaaaaaaaco!!!!!" Pansy exclaimed as she enthusiastically threw her hands up in the air purposely spilling the remainder of her Butterbeer all over you. You blinked in utter shock for a few seconds before growling.
"PANSY YOU STUPID WHORE" you stood up grabbing onto her ear and pulled her away from Draco who was still looking at you wide eyed with his mouth slightly open. The crowd quietened down and stared at you dripping in Butterbeer. Some laughed while others whispered and pointed at the two of you. Pansy looked at you innocently and pulled herself out of your grip.
"It was an accident Carrow, honest!" she smirked.
"Accident? A BLOODY ACCIDENT?! It'll be an accident when I break your nose for you Parkinson so you'd better back off pretty God damn fast." Pansy smirked at you again.
"Oh whatever Carrow, you just cant handle the competition." She pushed passed you and walked out of your sight. You stood there, soaked in Butterbeer as the crowd turned around and began doing whatever it was that they were doing before your little argument broke out. Draco walked over to you and draped his arm around your shoulder. You shrugged him off you and took your seat at the bar again wringing out your hair.
"Whats the matter with you?" he asked as he followed you over to your seat he ordered you another Butterbeer. You glared at him as much as you could and then looked away. You didn't know why you were pissed off with him, but it had something to do with all the girls that kept giving him quick smiles and blowing him kisses. You acted like you didnt notice them, but the more you pretended the more they aggravated you.
Draco pulled you over to him and he wrapped his arms around you protectively. He kissed your forehead and then your lips.
"Don't pat attention to them." He spoke, as if he could read your mind. "I. Only. Want. You." Between every word he left a kiss on your lips. You couldn't help but fall for his charming ways and minutes later you were locked together in a wild yet passionate kiss. You lips curled upwards as you heard some wolf whistles. Draco slapped you ass to add to it all and the whole place erupted with 'Oooohs' and 'Yeeeow's'
"C'mon lets head back early, I've to get you outta those wet closes" You giggled and pulled him towards the exit, and back to the castle you went.
