AN: this story was inspired by my friend's poem about Draco.
What if everyone had evil in them
And I sent of good to disguise?
What if evil accepted the good,
Or the two melted in one?
What if good consumed all danger?
What if Draco Malfoy was an angel?

Chapter 14.
The next few weeks were calm. I mean as calm as they could be. No one still accepted us. We never ate in the great hall anymore. The rehursals were going at a rather usual pace. After the Parvati incident no one had tried to say a word.
Christmas was arriving. Only 2 days from now. I had a present for her. I don't know how she'll like it. I have never given anyone a present. I do not know if it is of proper etiquette. Frankly I don't care either.
I will go to the library later this afternoon. It is saturday. Cgristmas day will be on monday. The halls of Hogwarts are empty. Only 4 students stayed behind for christmas. Two ravenclaws and us. Potter and Weasley left too. She didn't go homw either. Her mom didn't even invite her. And I stayed because she stayed. And because I didn't want to go home either. I didn't want to go back midst all those bad memories. I dont think I am ready to face them.
I spent the day in the library looking for information on the two lovers in her story. And nothing. Absolutely nothing. I have a suspicion that the book about them is in the forbidden section. Because they are mentioned in Hogwarts: A History. Is said that they were outstanding students and they were quite famous. But it had no indication to the fact why.
There is something more to this. I know it. But I have no idea how to get to the forbidden section. After the day I showed Snape the locket the security measures to the section had been made even harsher. Now you could only get there with his personal permission. So I might as well forget it. What are they hiding?
It is Sunday. Christmas is tomorrow. They gave the 4 students who left behind special permission to go to Hogsmeade. I suppose they though we'd die of boredom if they wouldn't. I really don't know if the professors know about us. I think they do. But they do a good job hiding it. It would just cause more hatred if we got "couple" treatment from the teachers.
WE have permission until 8 o'clock. Really late, but it is Christmas after all so they changed the time of dinner. So we have 6 hours.
It is snowing outside. Soft white flakes. I am already outside when she arrives. As soon as she sees me there is this odd spark in her eyes. I have started to see that a lot. It seems to appear there only when she is around me. It feels incredibly good to be able to make someone's eyes shine like that.
The soft flakes fall on her lashes. She closes her eyes. I take my chance and kiss them off. It tastes cold. She opens her eyes and smiles. A genuine smile.
She grabs my hand and we go to the carriage. In minutes we are in Hogsmeade.
We head for the shops. But we soon tire of it and decide to grab hot coffee since it is a bit chilly. We find this small place and right after we placed out order we already saw the waitress bring us coffee and cake. I haven't eaten cake for a while. You have to have company to eat cake. It's a whipcream -strawberry cake. Although the strawberries should remind me of summer they don't. It has white chocolate scattered over it. Beautiful. It reminds me of she snow that was on her lashes. So fragile.
Suddenly she starts looking for something in her bad. What?
She takes out a package.
She sees confusion in my eyes.
'No, it is not your Christmas present. Not yet. Just something I sa and wanted to buy for you.'
I tried to open my mouth to object because she really doesn't have to buy me anything but the puts a finger on my lips and signals me to be quiet.
I open it. A scarf. It was a funny-looking scarf. It was green and it had penguins on it. I looked closely and saw that sometimes they moved.
There was no other word but sweet. No one has ever done anything remotely sweet to me. Everything had been made on personal gain. But she wanted nothing.
I looked up to see a look of anticipation on her face. I smiled.
'This is so perfect.'
A look of relief passed her featured.
'You scared me for a moment there. I didn't know if you'd like it.'
'How could I not like it!'
A moment of silence.
'But why?'
She smiled. She smiled as if she knew something I didn't. She probably did.
'You.'
That one word. It should have been self-explanatory, but I obviously didn't get it.
'Me what?'
She laughed a short laugh. It sounded a bit mocking. What was it?
Then her expression became serious.
'I'm surprised that you have never been told before that you're lovely, and you're perfect, and that somebody loves you.'
She was right. No one had ever said that to me. I hate it when she's right. But that's why I love her. We are the kind of opposites that compliment each other.
7 pm we decided to head back to school. It was a beautiful night. We really wanted to walk so we headed back to the school. The stars were shining and it was snowing slightly. On half way I suddenly noticed a devious smile on her face.
She reached for snow and WHAM. A snowball hit me. I tackled her and we fell into snow. I kissed her and rolled to the side. We were both tired.
I don't know who started it but suddenly we were making snow-angels. It was magical. When we were done we stood up and admired our work. Her cheeks were all pink and she looked so child-like for a moment. The side of her I had never seen. And the side she had never showed either.
We walked back to the castle and had dinner, then parted to our rooms after agreeing to meet n the greenhouse in the morning.
Tomorrow was Christmas and for the first time I was looking forward to it.
