~CHAPTER 02~

Draco awoke to the sound of Crabbe and Goyle's snores. He stuffed a couple of handkerchiefs into their mouths and tried to get back to sleep.

"It's no use. Those idiots have got me up for good." Grumbling abuses he stepped inside the bathroom.

He was out in a second.

He had just remembered. He was supposed to have met Pansy at the Astronomy Tower last night.

"Damn." he muttered.

His life was becoming hell. He wished that he had never become involved with girls.

First of all, there was Cho Chang. She was becoming an infernal bore. He regretted ever asking her out. He had actually asked her out only to spite Harry. It was common knowledge that Harry had been mooning over Cho ever since his 3rd year.

If Cho accepted him, it would mean one up over Harry. And it certainly had been worth it, seeing Harry's face turn green when he had delivered the news. Draco smirked. That memory would be engraved in his brain forever.

But now he was becoming increasingly tired of Cho. She was just so dull-witted and boring. She neither responded to his wise-cracks nor did she contribute anything to the conversation.

She constantly had a melancholy look on her face and seemed to be perpetually thinking about Cedric.

It affected his ego a little bit, but more than that he was tired of the one-sided relationship.

And then there was Pansy.

he had asked Cho to the Ball before breaking up with Pansy and so he had arranged a meeting with her at the Astronomy Tower.

He had even kept a box of French Chocolates ready, to appease Pansy in case she should turn aggressive, but he had forgotten.

What had he been doing last night?

'Insulting Ginny near the lake.' His brain replied.

"Oh, yeah, insulting Gin-" he gave a start. "From when have I started referring to that Weasley kid as Ginny?"

'Maybe from yesterday when you thought she looked ravishing with the moonlight falling on her red-gold hair and-'

"Shut up!" Draco screamed.

Everyone woke up.
