~*~*~*~

Melody watched longingly as Harry, Ron and Hermione ran towards the Quidditch field. She missed them. She remembered the weeks before she was sorted. Harry had taught her all about Quidditch and tricks she could do on a broom. Now the only Gryffindor who talked to her was her father.

A strong arm snaked around her waist and she felt herself being pulled backwards.

" You should stop mooning over Potter." A familiar voice whispered in her ear.

She leaned back and he wrapped his other arm around her and rested his chin on the top of her head, "Hello, Draco."

" It's not good for your reputation as a Slytherin." He said.

She sighed, git, she thought. She still wasn't sure why she hung out with him. He was nice to her, but a complete jerk to others, and sometimes he said things that reminded her he wasn't really one to be trusted. Never the less she had allowed the rumors that they were an item spread and allowed him to embrace her as if they were. She felt like she was not completely in her body but not completely out of it either; almost as if she was dreaming. Harry and Ginny would speak to her and they all but avoided her. Yet she could see that they were torn between they're hatred for Slytherin and the friendship they had had.

"Come to Hogsmead this weekend with me." Draco said. It sounded more like a demand then a request. She felt her stomach clench at the thought of being alone with Draco away from the protection of Hogwarts. She stepped out of his embrace and turned to face him.

"I can't. I'm…helping Professor Lupin." She lied quickly.

Draco looked disappointed, but she could tell it wasn't because she wouldn't come with him. His eyes took a determined look.

"Oh well." He said and turned to leave.

He stopped a few feet away, "Meet me in the common rooms tonight after everyone's gone to sleep."

She was about to protest, but he was gone around the corner. She sighed,

What could he possible want?

~~**~~

It was eleven thirty before Melody left to meet Draco. She found him pacing in front of the fire place. She moved from the shadows of the staircase.

"Draco?" she asked.

He stopped pacing and looked at her. She swallowed her throat suddenly dry. He watched her move towards him like a wolf watches his prey.

"Draco? What's wrong?" she asked nervously.

His eyes gleamed with hungry anticipation. Before she knew it his arm had lashed out and grabed her wrist roughly.

"Ouch!" she cried quietly, not wanting to wake up anyone, "Draco what are you doing?"

He pulled her closer and hissed, "I'm sick of playing the good guy. We're finishing this once and for all."

Melody looked at him frightened, "D-Draco, what are you talking about?"

His grip tightened around her wrist as he pulled out his wand. Her eyes widened, was he going to kill her?

"Draco, what are you doing?!"

She didn't hear the words he said she only saw the black mist engulf her and felt her body crumple to the floor before she blacked out.
