You and Draco spent a week or two totally ignoring other people antics. Apparently it wasn't only Blaise and Pansy you were infuriating but others, and it was annoying you both. Many times it was in the Great Hall people would come up and confront you both, asking question after question- challenging your love. Other times it was while you were in class, some students, mostly girls; would try their hardest to seduce Draco. He blew each and every one of them off and you happily made them jealous by locking lips passionately right in front of them. One or to jealous whores lunged at you but none of them succeeded in actually hurting you. Thankfully Draco was always there to protect you but sometimes you feared that he wouldn't be there all the time.
You and Draco sat in the Slytherin Common Room receiving death glares and snide comments. You had it up to your eyeballs with these people but Draco seemed naturally calm, as always.
"Just relax babe, ignore them. You are with me.. Nothing will change that."
"But Draco these people- No, these girls- they want you and they are willing to do anything to get you. I'm.. I just cant take any more from them." You whispered dramatically. Draco gulped, and pulled you closer to him. He leant his forehead on yours closing his eyes as he spoke.
"You are with me, and I am happy. I really hope you are too. We're together a little over a month and I've wanted nothing but this for as long as I can remember." You smiled and ran your fingers through his hair.
"I love you Draco Malfoy" He sighed, this time out of happiness and then he smiled.
"I love you too Deborah Carrow." You kissed him and pulled away shortly after and smiled a honest and happy smile.
"I am happy Dray. Happier than I have ever been before and I dont think I could ever be this happy with anyone but you." Draco moved in closer to you leaning over your body making you shiver from head to toe. He kissed you passionately and you immediately deepened the kiss and wrapped your arms around his neck. By this time he was laying on top of you on the couch in front of the fire. Your lips curled as you thought of Pansy's face if she walked in. And not a minute later you heard Pansy's frightening screech.
"DRACO! OH MY GOD DRACO WHERE ARE YOU?! DRAAAAAAACO!!!" you sighed and kept kissing him, maybe if he didn't answer she would go away. But no, she persisted on with the shouting.
"DRACO.. Where the fuck are you? It's Bole- he's been hurt, I think his leg is broken. DRACO?!" Draco pulled away from you immediately and lifted his head over the couch to look at Pansy.
"You better be fucking joking here Pansy, I mean it." He snapped at her.
"Why would I lie to you about something like that?" Draco shrugged. He leaned down and kissed you gently before apologising and walking out of the common room in search for the 'hurt' Bole. Pansy let out a loud cackle as you sat up and fixed yourself. You put your hair up in a messy bun and glared at her as she walked from the boys stairs, across the common room and over to you. She jumped onto the couch beside you and smiled.
"Hi Deb, Ho-"
"DON'T!" You began in a loud and very annoyed voice. "even go there Pansy." You finished off lifting your hand as you spoke as a mannerly way of telling her to 'shut the fuck up'! She gawped at you for the longest time before shrugging her shoulders and cackling once more. She stood up and walked away and not long after did you run after her and grab her shoulder roughly spinning her around.
"Dont think I dont know what your up to, because I do." You shouted into her face as she tried to wriggle herself out of your grip. She stared at you again silently and you grabbed her other shoulder and began shaking her violently.
"You wont get away with it you ugly hag.. What the fuck did you do to Bole?" She looked at you. Her expression changed to one of a utterly shocked look.
"Wh- what are you talking about?" she asked in a shaky voice (This was partially because you were still roughly shaking her.)
"You'd nevfer make it in the fiflmf industry Parkinson. Your a shitty actress. So don't act all dumb and pretend you have no idea what I'm talking about because I know you do. And I know you did something to Bole so just back off from everyone and buy yourself a life." She blinked at you a few times and then both your attention was drawn to the common room door as Blaise walked in.
"While your at it, you can buy him a life too." You pushed her out of your grip and she stumbled backwards and fell against the wall not far behind her.
You stormed through the common roon and up to your dorm it was only then you noticed how many people had watched the show. You were fuming with a temper and you were shaking out of frustration. Laying on your bed, you stared at the ceiling for ages- just thinking. You were suddenly pulled out of your thought when Juliet barged in your room.
"Oh Merlin!" she yelped as she jumped on your bed and excitedly leaped up and down for a number of minutes before she finally settled and began talking again. "What the fuck happened with you and Parkinson?" You let out a little laugh and shrugged.
"Honestly- I have no idea!"
"Yeah right, you could have bitch-slapped her from here to Durmstrang and back from what I heard, so come on.. Spill!"
"Really? Oh my god Juliet, what have you heard?"
"Well, Adrian Pucey told Theo who told me that you had her in a head lock. BUT I over-heard Tracey Davis and Daphne Greengrass saying that you hexed he so she couldn't see the colour green and then I heard that from Harper that you just threatened the living daylights out of her and accused her of having something to do with hurting Bole!.. To tell you the truth I dont know what to believe!"
You sighed- running your hands through your messy hair and then you massaged your temples. You were so stressed out.
"Jul, honestly I just shook her up a bit and shouted at her. I know she has something to do with Bole, I just know it."
"Deborah, sweetie.. I know she's giving you a rough time and everything, but you can accuse her of hurting him."
"I was making a huge point by saying I know for a fact that she HAD something to do with Boles accident and I" Juliet cut you off.
"Have you proof?"
"What?"
"Have you proof? If you know for a fact that she had something to do with Boles accident then prove it." You groaned.
"Jul, it's- it's not that easy. I promise you wont repeat this to anyone, please?!" Juliet nodded and sat in curiosity as you told her about what you had overheard Pansy and Blaise talking about in the library. After a while Juliet gasped loudly.
"Merlins Beard! This girl has taken on revenge at a totally higher level." You nodded.
"You see what I mean? Next Blaise will be on the team and its only a matter of time that Draco will get hurt." You sighed again in frustration.
"Deb, dont you think Draco's a big boy, he can look after himself. There's no need for you to worry about him. How do you even know for sure Blaise will make the team. You've seen him play, he is terrible!" You both laughed and then talked some more about Pansy's scheming.

Later on that night. Yourself and Juliet had been playing a game of exploding snap when Draco finally returned. He looked terribly exhausted and a little sick. You pouted and patted a seat next to you so he'd come sit down. He smirked and made his way through the common room towards you both.
"Hey Dray, how's Bole?"
"Ugh, he's um not doing to good. He broke his leg and lost a lot of blood. Madam Pomfrey says he wont be able to play the upcoming match so now I've to find another beater. I'm totally wrecked!"
He lay on the floor where you were sitting and rested his head on your laps. You continued playing exploding snap with Juliet until Nott came in and then you packed up your game and just relaxed in front of the fire.
Juliet and Nott retreated to the couch, while you sat on the floor gently running your hand through Dracos long hair. You were in deep thought about Pansy and Blaise. You didnt know whether you should tell Draco about it or not, but more importantly you didn't know if he'd believe you. You thought long and hard about and finally you gave up and continued playing with Dracos hair. He slept on quietly for another while until finally he woke up.
"Hey babe" he groggily spoke as he sat up and leaned against the couch. You smiled as he let a yawn escape his mouth.
"Tired much?" you asked. He smiled and wrapped his arm around your shoulder pulling you close to him. You cuddled into his chest and wrapped your arm around his waist, getting comfortable in front of the warm blazing fire.
"Uh, what time is it Deb?" he asked looking at how dark the common room was now. You checked you watch.
"Nearly 8.30... Why?"
"I gotta go meet Professor Snape.. Sorry babe, love you." He kissed your forehead and jumped up, running out of the room before you even had time to respond. You sat on the floor open-mouthed and then turned to look at Juliet and Nott, they both shrugged and you shook your head. Deciding to get an early nights sleep.
You retreated to your quiet dorm room at 8.30. It was almost 11.30 and you were still wide awake. Restlessly you squirmed around in your bed until finally you couldn't take it anymore. You got up and noticed Juliet wasn't there..
She must have stayed in Nott's room.. You thought as you grabbed a pillow and walked out of your room. As you descended the girls stairs you heard voices coming from the common room. You stopped in your place and listened for a few minutes. Immediately you recognised the two voices. It was Pansy and Blaise.
"..Oh please Pansy! Lets just give up. It obvious she knows, its almost too obvious actually. The way she caught you in the common room was outstanding.. especially for Deborah. She normally wouldn't notice something happening right in front of her but she saw right through you and that means she knows about me now too."
"LISTEN HERE ZABINI!" Pansy barked. "I am not stopping now, nor will I be stopping this any time soon. So you are either going to help me or you are going to help them and lets just say if you choose them things wont be pretty."
You inwardly laughed to yourself. Was Pansy threatening Blaise, what a totally headcase!! You listened in for another few minutes but nothing interesting was said. It was then you decided to make an appearance.
"Whose death are you plotting this time Parkinson?" you snapped as you got to the last stair. She jumped back in shock and watched you for a second before looking at Blaise allowing him to reply for her.
"What are you moaning about this time Carrow?" Blaise snapped. This shocked both you and Pansy since you both had never heard Blaise address anybody like that before.
"I'm talking about you two scheming and plotting, don't act dumb Zabini its not a good look for you." You snapped back as you walked across the room and sat yourself on the couch.
"We'll finish this off in the morning Pansy, Goodnight." Blaise calmly spoke as you heard him climb the stairs. You turned around to see Pansy glaring daggers at you.
"Goodnight Parkinson!" You mimicked Blaise before you turned to lie down on the couch. You repeatedly punched your pillow until you felt comfortable. You let out a loud sigh and closed your eyes as you soaked up what was left of the heat from the fire before falling asleep.
DREAM
You were at home with your parents and it was during the holidays. Your house was decorated with the usual Christmas decorations and it seemed as though you were having a get together.
You looked at yourself in the mirror and saw your usual reflection but you were wearing makeup which brought out your facial features beautifully. You smiled at your reflection and followed the sound of people talking, you ended up in the dining room.
"Avada Kedavra!" he shouted. You clenched your eyes as the almost blinding, green light flew past your shoulder and hit the man who held onto you. You felt his grip loosen and then the sound of his lifeless body hitting the floor. You slowly opened your eyes and looked at Draco, he smiled at you and grabbed onto your unbroken hand as he pulled you towards the doors from which he came. But moments before you could leave you were hit with the Cruciatus curse. You stopped running abruptly and fell to you knees.
You were shocked to see that everyone was dressed in dark gowns and hooded robes while you stood out in your Slytherin green dress. You tried to keep to the back of the room but all the attention was suddenly drawn to you.
"Ahh here she is!" a man spoke loudly before striding towards you and offering you his arm. You took it distrustfully as he pulled you towards the middle of the room. Many people muttered and gasped as you walked towards the center of the room with the man by your side. He kissed your hand politely and stepped away and disappeared into the crowd of hooded people. You couldn't see anybodies face and this frightened you a little. You got the sudden urge to call for Draco and before you knew it you shouted his name out loudly in the huge hall.
Your voice echoed and hit off the walls almost bouncing back at you. Everyone went quiet and watched you attentively. You paid no attention to these people as your eyes scanned the room for Draco. He was nowhere to be seen. And then suddenly there was a loud crash.
People scurried around the dining hall pulling out their wands. You stood there in the middle of the room frightened and unaware of what was really going on around you. Draco stormed into the room screaming your name, many other men filled the room but most were unrecognisable. Your heart skipped a beat as you saw him race through the hall towards you.
"DRACO!" you screamed in delight. You made an attempt to walk when you were pulled into the hands of the man who had assisted you to the center of the room. You looked at the man and saw a smirk slowly appear on his face. That smirk was all to familiar to you and you reached up to grab the mans hood. He stepped away- grabbing your hand roughly and breaking it in one swift movement. You shrieked loudly and fell to your knees in pain as tears poured out of your eyes rapidly.
Draco stopped in front of you, a sympathetic and angered look on his face. He raised his wand to you and said the feared words..
"Draco..?" you whispered in pain and then you fell into darkness.
End of Dream
You sat up, panting for air. You face was soaked with sweat and vision was cloudy. You looked around in the dark to see Draco kneeling on the floor in front of you stoking your arm. A worried look on his face.
"Baby what's what's wrong? Merlin your shaking.." Draco practically jumped onto you pulling you in closely to him. "Merlin, Deb you're soaked." Draco wiped the beads of sweat from your forehead and rocked you back and forth in his arms. You lay there against him in shock.
What in the name of Merlin was that all about? You opened your mouth to say something but nothing came out. Draco pulled away from you and stared at you.
"Deb I'm normally not one for admitting when I am afraid, but right now- you are scaring the shit out of me, what is wrong?" You blinked at him and then looked away for a second. There were so many things running though your mind and something was telling you to get away from Draco as fast as possible. You stood up and wobbled a little before moving away from Draco. He stood up and walked towards you just in time to catch you as you blacked out.
