Chapter 6: The Truth

The next morning, Draco woke up early so he could talk to Maria. He could barly sleep the night before, because he wanted to know what Maria was doing with Ron in her bedroom (not like in a perverted way. He just hopes that they didn't do it.).

Right when Draco came down the stairs from his dormitory, he saw Maria and Ron by the portrait hole. She kissed him, and he left. Maria turned around, and her eyes landed on Draco.

"Hi, what are you doing up so early?" She asked happily.

"Did Ron spend the night. in your room?" Draco asked, making Maria's smile fade quickly.

"Well, yeah." Maria said. "But it's not like we had sex or anything." She added quickly. Draco gave her a questioning look. "Seriously."

"Then why was he in your room?" Draco asked.

"Okay," Maria sighed. "after I left the party, I went to go hang out with Ron for a bit. It got really late, and we knew that we would get caught if we were out past curfew." Draco nodded. "So, we were really close to the Slytherin common room, and I didn't want him Filch to see him, so I took him up to my room." Draco looked nervously at her. "All we did was talk. and kiss a little." Maria confessed. "But nothing else, I swear. It was really late, so I told him he could spend the night on the floor by my bed. We got up early, so no one would see him."

"Promise?" Draco asked with a little smile. He couldn't help but be happy that Weasley didn't get lucky.

"I promise." Maria said. "So when did the party end?" she asked with a smile as she and Draco sat down on the couch.

"Midnight." Draco said.

"Are you kidding me?" Maria laughed.

"I know, Slytherins are dorks!" Draco said as Maria rested her head on his chest and he wrapped his arms around her waist.

"All well, Slytherin is better then Hufflepuff." Maria said.

"You're telling me. If I had been a Hufflepuff, I would have dropped out of school." Draco said, making Maria laugh.

"I don't think I would want to be anything but a Slytherin." Maria said.

"Why? It's not like the evil reputation is a good thing." Draco said.

Maria laughed and said, "But that's just a rumor. You guys are so nice! And, besides," She said, wrapping her arms tightly around Draco. "If I wasn't a Slytherin, then I probably wouldn't know you." Maria looked up at Draco, and some how, their lips found each other.

"We shouldn't be doing this." Maria said in between kisses.

"Do you want to stop?" Draco asked, breathing heavily.

"No." She said, pulling Draco back on top of her.
