Chapter 4
Slytherin Love

Draco wouldn't admit it to anyone, but he was beginning to actually fall in love with the beautiful Gryffindor. She seemed to be all he thought about and his mind would always wonder toward her. He finally decided it was too much for him to handle and decided to work his charm on her to see what happened. After breakfast he walked alone to the dungeons for his first class of the morning which he had the luck of sharing with the Gryffindors. He stood against the wall waiting for Jennifer to walk in.

"Yeah, I know she is such a git" he heard Jennifer saying as she rounded a corner with Pansy. "And have you seen her hair?" she continued, "It looks like she just got electrocuted or something!" they both snickered and continued walking toward the classroom. Suddenly she spotted Draco and pretended not to notice.

"Hey there," he said in a flirtatious tone, "Who may I ask are we talking about? It wouldn't happen to be that filthy Mudblood Granger would it? Cuz everyone knows she's a total git."

Jennifer laughed and said, "Now, now Draco, don't be mean."

He winked at her and said, "Sorry, that's just me." Then he turned around and walked into the classroom because Crabbe and Goyle were waiting by his side.

"He is one sexy guy that Draco" said Pansy as she sighed.

"Yeah," agreed Jennifer, "He's not so bad." Then they both walked into the classroom as the rest of the Gryffindors began filing in.

After class the Gryffindors and Slytherins parted ways for separate classes. Just as Jennifer was about to leave with the rest of the Gryffindors, Draco called to her from across the hall, "Hey Jennifer! See ya later." He winked at her and continued walking. All the students were left standing in awe. Very rarely did Draco show his feelings for a girl, and most of the time they were false. The halls finally cleared and the Gryffindors made their way to Defense Against the Dark Arts which was once again taught by Professor Lupin, since no one else wanted to apply for the job which was said to be cursed.

"Now, now students. Silence please!" He walked over to Jennifer and said, "I see we have a new student joining us. What is your name?"

"Jennifer Hernandez. I am the transfer student from Argentina. That's in South America" she said.

"So I see. Well Miss Hernandez, I hope you find our school very interesting." He walked to the center of the room and continued his lecture.

Angelina, who was sitting next to Jennifer leaned over and said, "I didn't know you were from Argentina. I thought you were from Brazil."

"Yeah well you've got your facts all wrong." She continued her listening until Angelina leaned over again.

"So what's up with you and Malfoy? Are you two like, a couple now?" Jennifer giggled.

"Nope, not yet. But I'm planning on it." She smiled to herself and then turned to Angelina, "Why? You haven't got claims on him or anything do you?" Angelina's eyes widened.

"Of course not! He's a jerk! A handsome jerk though." They both giggled until Hermione hissed at them to be quiet. Jennifer hadn't liked Hermione to begin with and her attitude now was certainly not helping her to like her more.

"Listen Granger, this is none of your business what we are talking about. So why don't you just hush up and take some notes or something and let us live in peace." Then she turned around and ignored Hermione's rude comment.
