Draco watched as Serena hurried off without him. He felt a little
weird inside. He had never had such strong feelings for a girl this much on
a first meeting. Maybe his heart had admired her from afar. Yes, that would
have to be it. He stood up and ran up to his room. He collapsed on his bed
and fell asleep.
-=-=-=-
Serena sat down in her carriage with her mother. They were both waving out their window at Draco's mother who was standing at the massive front doors of her Manor. The carriage began to move. Serena rested her head on the window and stared out into space. Her mother seemed to go to sleep quickly, without any talk. Serena was happy about that. Why was Draco getting so attractive all of a sudden? He was just another boy in Slytherin before. She would have to get together with him and figure this out. Was she even supposed to be going out with him? She soon drifted into sleep.
-=-=-=-
Draco woke up from a dreamless sleep. He stared around his room. Something was different. Then he realized that there was a Hogwarts letter on his desk. He got up and tore it open. He stared at his school supply list. He would most definitely have to go to Diagon Alley. He walked downstairs and found his mother sitting at the kitchen table. So he had slept all night. His mother smiled at him and motioned him to sit down on the chair next to her. He did as he was told.
"I see you got your Hogwarts letter," she said pointing to his hand that was clutching the letter tightly.
"Yeah," he muttered.
"Would you like to go get your books and other supplies today?" she asked putting down the tea she was sipping in between sentences.
"Um, sure mother." Draco placed the letter on the table so she could read what he needed. "You don't have to come with me you know," he said.
"Alright then," his mother said taking another sip. "Are you in the mood going by floo powder?"
"I couldn't care less."
When Draco was in Diagon Alley he went straight to 'Flourish and Blotts' book store. When he crammed himself in he began to search for the books he needed.
"Hogwarts?" someone asked.
"Yes," he said and felt a big stack of books fall onto his hands.
"There you go lad, that will be 3 galleons." Draco paid and dropped his books into the bag the store clerk had given him with the books. He then squeezed himself out of the store and went to 'Quality Quittich Supplies'. He stared at the new Firebolt 2. He definitely wanted that. He decided he would buy it. His mother did give him more money than normal that day. Maybe she wanted him to buy something else. He went in and saw the price. It wasn't THAT expensive in his opinion. He was getting sick of his old broomstick. He decided to buy it, even though he was left with only 5 galleons. He walked out of the store in a very good mood. He then decided to go to the local ice cream store. He was surprised when he saw Potter, Weasley, and Granger sitting together at a table. He ignored them, remembering what they did to him last year on the train home. He grabbed his ice cream and slipped into a small empty table on the side, listening to what they were saying.
"His father is still in Azkaban," Ron said, licking his ice cream.
"Yeah, and remember last year Malfoy said that his father would come out of Azkaban fast because the dementors have left?" Harry said.
"Of course I remember," Hermione said loudly. "I think the Ministry should be doing something about it."
"What is there to do? Fudge is confused," Ron said, "My father told me about it," Ron added.
"Look, Malfoy isn't going to be coming out. He's weak without his master," Harry said. Draco was furious. They were talking about his father. How dare they. Draco stood up about to go over there and yell, when he saw someone already was. Serena was standing in front of them saying that the his father and all the Death Eaters will eventually come out of Azkaban. Draco just sat down and watching, amused. Serena then just walked to Draco's table and sat on the seat next to him.
"Thanks," Draco said grinning.
"No problem," Serena said brightly taking his ice cream and licking it. "You mind?" she asked.
"Not at all," he was still grinning at he talked.
"Those three are so weird. None of them are going out. Ron and Hermione are always fighting, yet they're the ones that everyone says should go out. I think it's crazy," she added.
"Yeah," Draco said. He grabbed his ice cream back and licked it. "So have you gotten all your supplies?" he asked.
"Yeah."
"Oh I haven't. I don't feel like getting them either. I'll just tell the house elves to get them tomorrow."
"So where are we off to?" Serena asked him.
"No where yet." He leaned forward and met her lips with a long passionate kiss. When they stopped they realized that Harry, Hermione, and Ron were all looking at them wide eyes and mouths open.
"What Weasley? Never seen anyone kiss before?" he said loudly to Ron.
Ron scowled and said, "Of course I have. I just haven't seen two apes kiss each other before."
"Neither have I," Draco said, "And I've seen myself kiss Serena a lot so I guess you have the wrong idea of what apes are."
"You are actually that vain to look at yourself in a mirror while you kiss?" Hermione said.
"Yes," Draco said simply. He then stood up and Serena stood up too. He put his arm around her waist and they walked away.
-=-=-=-
Serena felt Draco's hand behind her waist and as they walked away she realized that he really loved her. She loved him for so long, she decided. Her heart just didn't tell her soon enough.
"So where do you want to go to?" he asked her.
"Wherever you want to go to," she said.
"Let's go to," he paused and then pointed to a small candy store, "Let's go there." The two walked in. The store was quite empty compared with the amount of people walking around outside. They looked at the different chocolates that sat neatly on a shelf. Each chocolate had a description underneath it. Draco picked one up and looked closely at it.
"It says that this chocolate gives a nosebleed to whoever eats it," he told Serena who was looking at the shelf underneath the one he was looking at.
"This one says that whoever eats it will rise a couple feet of the ground for 10 minutes."
"How.. interesting," Draco said.
"Yeah I know," said Serena who was putting down the chocolate. "Oh but look at this! This one makes you kiss whoever you see right after you eat the chocolate!"
"I'll take the whole lot!" Draco said, directing his attention to that.
"Well okay," Serena said.
-=-=-=-
After they walked out of the store, hand in hand, both holding their shopping bags in the free hand, they decided it was time to depart.
"Must we?" Serena said.
"Yes," Draco said simply. They were talking in the middle of the dirt path in Diagon Alley. People were constantly bumping into each other, and them for that matter.
"Ouch!" Serena said as a grumpy wizard hit her with his walking stick. Draco pulled her off to the side into Knockturn Alley. Serena embraced him. "Thanks for everything," she said, "I suppose now we're going out, right?"
"I suppose," Draco said, looking at the ground.
"Is something wrong?" Serena said moving next to Draco and leaning her head on his shoulder.
"Nothing," he said. But ofcourse he was lying. Just being in Knockturn Alley made him sad. His father used to take him here. His father was a bad person, but not all the time. "Well I have to go," he said, "Bye," he waved, gave her a quick kiss on the cheek and ran off. Serena leaned on a store wall and stared after him.
So I got another chapter in. Hope you like it. It's short, like the first, but that's okay. Read and Review!
