Chapter 7
It was dinner, and claire was telling hypothia and claire of her latest escapades with snape. Alice was looking over at seamus and not paying attention to her friend. Seamus' hair, still blue and spiked looked so adorable to her. She hoped so much that it was permanent. She deicided that she was going to pursue her feelings. She was going to ignore the voice of her father in her head and talk to seamus after dinner.
The students were dismissed to their common rooms after the meal and alice walked over to seamus. He was talking to harry, who quickly left when she came up to them.
"hi." She said to seamus.
He looked around as if she was supposed to be speaking to someone else. "me?" he asked and pointed to himself.
"I just wanted to apologize for snapping at you earlier."
"it's okay." He said sheepishly looking at his feet.
"no it's not." Alice briskly retorted. "you were just being nice. I was stupid. I just didn't know what to do with my feelings. I mean, you're a gryffindor, I'm a slytherin and -"
"uh…" he interrupted. "you lost me, alice."
"well, this thing is, I kind of, like you." her words grew softer as the sentence continued.
"YOU like ME?" he was shocked. "alice malfoy, sister of draco malfoy, likes ME, seamus finnigan?!"
"I know. I just can't help it. you don't like me, I get it." she turned to leave, but was stopped when seamus grabbed her arm.
"I never said that." He said as he brought her closer to him.
"so you do?" she asked, looking into his eyes.
he did not need to say anything, she just knew. He moved closer to her. his hand moved from her arm to her hand. As his fingers intertwinded with hers, their lips touched for a sweet slow kiss.

alice walked up to the slytherin common room after what had happened. Her thoughts were going too fast to comprehend. She reached the portrait, gave the password, and entered. Not blinking, as she was far too stunned about what just happened, she sat down next to the fire.
"alice?" she heard a voice say. "alice, it's draco, what's wrong?" she around to face her brother who was standing behind her. "something the matter?"
"nothing's the matter draco. I'm fine."
"out with it, alice." He demanded.
She took in a deep breath and said quickly, "Ikissedseamusfinnigan!"
"you what?!" he said as he took a step back.
Alice stood up to hace her brother and over enunciated her words. "I KISSED SEAMUS FINNIGAN! I hate it when people need it spelled out."
"alice! He's only a 1/2 blood! What'll dad say?!"
"I really don't care draco. Anyway, what about you! you and hypothia!" she pointed at him.
"what are you talking about?"
"she's my best friend, draco, she tells me stuff."
"well, fine, but why would dad care about that?"
"well, abviously, you don't know her well enough to know her last name."
"everyone knows her last name. It's swingward." Draco looked at his sister like she were crazy.
"dear dear draco. How naïve you are. Surely you know of her mother."
"She went with voldemort." He replied.
"and of her father?"
"he and her mother had to escape the dark lord when her mother fell for her father."
"it seems your little girlfriend has neglected to tell you who her uncle, her father's brother is!" alice was starting to actually go a little mad by now.
"who?" draco asked.
"james potter!!!" she screamed.
"are you saying that…" draco said, bringing his voice down so they wouldn't wake anyone.
"that's right draco, hypothia POTTER!!!" (DUN DUN DUN!!!) "so you keep your mouth shut about me and seamus, and I wont run to dad about you and harry potter's cousin. By the way, I suggest you talk to her. she's in the dorm." Alice sat back down in her chair and resumed thinking.
Draco walked up the stairs to the girl's dormitory where hypothia was sitting on her four poster. Draco joined her.
"draco! You're not suppoed to be here!" she hissed.
He brought his finger to her lips, and with a soft tone said, "shhh." He closed the curtains and turned to her. "why didn't you tell me you were potter's cousin?"
"why do you think malfoy?" she coldly replied. "would you have felt the same way about me had you known?"
draco looked down at the bed.
"see, I knew it." she said and leaned back to lie back down.
he moved over and layed down on his side behind her. he wrapped one arm around her and used the other to prop his head up to see her. "that's not it." he said. "my feelings for potter shouldn't effect how I feel about you?"
she sat back up and looked down at him. "and how DO you feel about me?"
he sat up as well, "look." He began and took her hand. "I have never felt this way about anyone before."
she angrily pulled her hand back. "then why the hell have you been ignoring me? only noticing me when no one is around like this?" she snapped.
"I didn't know what to do. I was scared."
Hypothia couldn't belive what she was seeing. As draco took her hand again, he looked into her eyes. she couldn't help but look back. His eyes were filling with tears. Instead of the coldness they usually gave off, they were sad and genuinely sincere.
"I…I just didn't know what to with how I felt. You were the only person that saw me for me. not draco malfoy, son on the most prominent deatheater. And I loved you for it," he said and wiped a tear from his face that was falling. "I love you, hypothia potter. I always have and always will." He moved in to kiss her, but pulled back suddenly. Hypothia was completely stiff. "hypothia?" draco asked as he tapped her on the shoulder. "oh my god!" He took her in his arms and ran to the hospital wing. He was so concerned and was running too fast to hear anyone ask him what he was doing; he had to help her. t
