            Emily woke up to the most beautiful sight she ever laid her eyes on. Her emerald eyes met with Draco's silver as she fluttered them open. He smiled at her and supported his head on the palm of his hand. He sighed and smirked. She sat up and looked at him crossly. He frowned and sat up fully next to her. She crossed her leg under her and turned to him.

            "What are you smirking about?" She asked hesitantly. His eyes lit up and he smiled menacingly. She had a look of worry on her face and she scowled.

            "Oh dear, you don't remember, I think last night was the most fun I ever had… You remember when I said we would be having a fiesta? Well gosh, we had a mighty good bash, and I never knew you could speak French, what was it that you said, I think it was along the lines of, 'Harder, faster, deeper?' Maybe." He smirked evilly as she gasped.

            "Draco Malfoy I will not be toyed with like that, I was about to have a heart attack. The last thing I need is you spreading rumors about something that didn't even happen," she sighed as she laid back down. He groaned and glanced at her.

            "Oh come on, I had you going!" He exclaimed as he stood up. She pulled the blankets over her head and heaved a sigh. Draco walked over to his dresser and picked up his comb. He styled his hair to perfection and the mirror complimented him well.

            Emily heard, 'Draco baby you are so fine' and sat up swiftly. She looked over at Draco and noticed there was no one else in the room. "Draco, who said that?" She inquired with an eyebrow cocked.

            "My mirror. Apparently I strike her fancy," he smirked and glided over to the bed Emily was occupying. He kneeled over her and put an arm on both sides of her. He had her trapped.

            "Do I strike your fancy Emily?" He asked sweetly.

            "What if I say no?" She asked tauntingly. He looked at her and genuinely smiled. He glanced at her apprehensive look and smirked.

            "You shall find out…. So what is the answer?" Emily smiled and shook her head 'no.' He gasped and mock fainted. Emily was sent into a fit of giggles as he sat up. He looked at her as though she was his prey, and he the predator. She laid down and he crawled up to her, assuming the same position he was in before, having her caged. She smiled as he leant down. As his lips came down an inch above hers she fluttered her eyes shut. But there was no kiss. Emily opened her eyes as she had another fit of giggles. He was tickling her right in 'her spot.' She was laughing hysterically and kicking her feet in the air. She waved her arms in defeat but he kept on tickling her. He then noticed she was quite out of breathe and sat up. He was still straddling her so she couldn't move. After she caught her breath, he used the moment as an advantage. He suddenly leaned down again, and this time kissed her. Emily was startled, but eventually gave in. It was a short but sweet kiss, and Emily inwardly sighed as he gently pulled back. He grinned at her, and she returned it with a weak smile. She sat up a little, just in time to catch his lips in hers. She wouldn't let him get away that easily. She put her arms around his neck as she laid back down. He decided to deepen the kiss just as the door swung violently open. A pissed off Pansy stood at the door speechless. Draco and Emily jumped as she yelled.

            "Draco Malfoy what in Merlin's name are you doing?" Pansy snarled.

Draco smirked and replied nastily, "What does it look like I am doing Parkinson?" He swept Emily up in a heated kiss as Pansy struggled for breath. She couldn't believe it.

"Oh I see Draco, it is just a one-nighter thing again right? What is next a Hufflepuff? Your standards are dropping." Pansy's voice dripped with venom. Pansy stalked out the door and slammed it behind her.

Emily roughly pushed Draco off of her and looked at him fiercely. "Is that it Draco? You are just trying to get close to me to relieve your sexual tension on me?" Emily scoffed as he had a hurt look on his handsome features. 

"No Em, it is not like that, this is Pansy that said this, I mean come on, the girl who said she would not ever dream of  coming even two feet near Goyle, and was later found snogging him in the library with half her blouse off. Who are you going to believe here?" He said desperately and walked near her. He enveloped her in a hug as she looked up at him guiltily.

"I am sorry Draco, its just that I have thought this was all too good to be true, and I knew something like that was eventually going to happen, I mean look at who I am. The girl who was invisible, suddenly seen by the person who she had sought after for years. It wasn't possible in my eyes." She cried aloud and heaved a sigh.

He brushed a tear from her cheek with his thumb and grabbed her by her shoulders. His silver eyes made contact with hers and she smiled as he grinned broadly at her. "I wasn't planning on telling you this yet, but I think I will. Well you see I had always had my eye on you. Remember back in second year when you were in the hospital wing, and you would always get those little gifts? Well they were from yours truly." He smiled weakly as she saw her face light up.

"Well this reminds me… Last night I had a dream. It was kind of funky though. Crabbe was playing the ukulele and  Goyle was singing Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds." She smiled at his puzzled look. He then looked as though a light bulb lit over his head.

"That reminds me, I have band practice today!" He hurriedly ran over to his closet and pulled out some articles of clothing. Emily walked out into her dorm and collapsed on her bed. She summoned her clothes with a flick of her wand, and got changed. She skipped over to her mirror, and gazed at her reflection. Apparently she picked out something that she usually wouldn't wear. Her black top was too tight, and her black and red pants hugged her hips. She sighed and muttered an 'oh well.'

Draco ran over to the girl's dorm and knocked on the door. Emily answered it and looked up at Draco. He was wearing a black band tee that read, 'NOFX' in light blue print on it. He had on baggy black pants and his hair was still slicked back. Emily smirked at the last thought and walked up to him. She ruffled his hair and grinned. She stepped back and giggled.

"You can not wear those clothes with your hair like that!" She smiled as he ran over to the mirror. He gawked at his reflection and then straightened up. He ran a hand through his new 'do' and flashed a broad grin towards Emily.

"I still do look extremely sexy. I now trust your judgment," he dodged a pillow that Emily threw at him and walked up to her.

"Care to join me to practice? It is just up a couple of corridors." She accepted the invitation and he grabbed her hand and entwined their fingers.

As the two walked up into an empty class room, they were met with Blaise Zabini, Malcolm Baddock, and Graham Pritchard. Blaise had dark hair and was tanned. He also had honey colored eyes and a smile to kill. Malcolm had dirty blonde hair, green eyes, and was the tallest of the group. Then there was Graham. Now Graham was a year younger than the other boys and looked as though he didn't hit puberty yet. His voice was squeaky, he was maybe as tall as Emily, and had dark worried eyes. His red hair was haphazard, and his smile was full of metal. He said the reason why he has braces is because his family believed that magic couldn't do everything. Blaise walked up to Emily and enveloped her in a huge hug. Draco was somewhat startled by this, but didn't show it. The boys led Emily into the deserted classroom and closed the door behind her. She jumped at the sound of a guitar being plugged into an amp. She turned around and saw a drum set, a bass, a guitar, a keyboard, and two mics. She glanced at Draco as she sat down on one of the desks, and saw him walk up to the microphone carrying his metallic blue guitar. Behind him was Blaise with his midnight black bass behind the other mic, Malcolm behind the drums, and Graham next to the keyboard.

(A/N: Play song now)

"Em, we have been working on this one for a while, tell me how it sounds…" He began to say as Graham started playing a continuous rhythm on  the keyboard. Pretty soon Draco joined in with the same rhythm on his guitar, and then Malcolm on the drums. 'Sounds good' Emily thought. Draco began to sing as Blaise cut in with the bass:

"Things swiftly come and go,

I'm dreaming of her,

She's seeing other guys,

Emotions a stir,

The sun is gone,

The nights are long,

And I am left while the tears fall.

Did you think that I would cry,

On the phone.

Do you know what it feels like,

Being alone.

I'll find someone new.

Swing Swing Swing,

From the tangles of my heart,

Is crushed by a former love.

Can you help me,

Find a way to carry on again."

The song went on until the chorus was repeated, and then stopped as they began playing a new beat and Draco sang,

"Bury me", he looked at Emily and smiled through the mic.

"You thought your problems were gone,

Carry me,

Away, away, away.

Swing Swing Swing,"

—Blaise cut in "swing swing swing"

—"from the tangles of my heart"

—"My heart"

—"is crushed by a former love…"

And so on. The song ended and Emily clapped loudly while grinning.  

            Blaise watched between Draco and Emily, and saw the connection between the two. He could see something in Draco's eyes. Maybe it was lust, or compassion. But he looked again and saw what it really was. That fickle little four letter word. Love. He could not bear to see Draco and Emily together. Ever since Blaise met Emily he had always had a soft spot for the pale beauty. He remembered the day like it was yesterday…

            Blaise was sitting on the step in front of the doorway to one of the many stores in Knockturn Alley. The door behind him slammed and a pale girl came tumbling down in front of him. He stood abruptly and helped her up.

"You shouldn't have been sitting there you dip shit," the nine year old Emily smirked. He looked at her guiltily and muttered an apology.

"You should be sorry. Wait until my mother hears about this. I figured you were a Zabini," she said nodding towards Blaise's mother talking to her own mother.

"Yes and you must be Emily O'Leary. It is quite an honor to finally meet you, I have heard so much about you from my mother and father," he said while kissing her hand, the way his father taught him to greet women. She pulled her hand back hastily and wiped it on her high quality robes.

"Ew gross. Blaise germs," she walked up to him smiling and linked her arm in his. He glanced at her and smirked. They walked off into Knockturn Alley, arms linked. Ever since that day, him and Emily had been the closest of friends. However, lately she had become more distant with him, and he barely ever saw her. Blaise was beginning to believe that she had learned to blend into the walls.

When they stopped practicing, Draco walked up to Emily and kissed her on the cheek. She grinned at him and complimented him on his music skills. She said something about not believing his father would let him do something originated by muggles. But he told her it was a family tradition. He was all ready to leave as Emily said she would meet up with him later. The boys left, but little did they know Blaise lingered a little longer. Emily glided her hand along Draco's guitar. She picked it up and put the strap around her shoulders, while sitting on the nearest desk  She stretched out her hands and placed them along the long strings. She began playing the tune of one of her favorite muggle songs by a singer/songwriter named Jewel. She started humming along to it, and eventually began singing along.

"Dreams last, so long, even after you're gone. I know, that you love me, and soon you will see, you were meant for me, and I was meant for you…" she stopped singing and put her hands to the strings to stop the melody. She stood up and placed the guitar back on it's stand. Emily sat down on the floor with her legs crossed and her back propped up on her elbows. She let her mind wander for a moment while thinking of Blaise. Blaise was pretty much her first for everything. Six years ago, Blaise was Emily's first friend. Back in second year, he was her first kiss. In the summer of third year, he was her first, and only, boyfriend. During fourth year he was the first, and again the only, to ask her to the Yule Ball. Through all those years though, he was her first love. She loved Blaise with all her heart. But Draco had that extra spice to him. It wasn't like Blaise was a goody-goody, but Draco was something new and fresh. Without Blaise, there would be no Draco. Blaise talked her out of all the times she tried to end her life for good. He was always there for her and she loved him for that. But she never knew if he felt the same. Sure, he would always whisper those three little words in her ear to comfort her while she was crying, but did he mean it? Emily suddenly had the urge to sing, and the song that was on her mind was, 'Because You Loved Me' by Celine Dion. She stood up and walked over to the keyboard and turned the it on.

Blaise watched as Emily walked behind the keyboard and turned it on. He looked into hey emerald eyes and noted that she was near tears. She began playing a soft melody that he recognized well. Emily had played it for him last year at his summer manor, when she had first told him she loved him. Emily was humming along as tears were falling softly down her face.

"For all those times you stood by me,

For all the truth that you made me see,

For all the joy you brought to my life,

For all the wrong that you made right,

For every dream you made come true,

For all the love I found in you,

I'll be forever thankful baby,

Your the one who held me up,

Never let me fall,

You're the one who saw me through, through it all....

You were my strength when I was weak,

You were my voice when I couldn't speak,

You were my eyes when I couldn't see,

You saw the best there was in me,

Lifted me up when I couldn't reach,

You gave me faith, cause you believed,

I'm everything I am 

Because you loved me,"

            Blaise choked back a sob as the tears that were threatening to flow down his face, finally fell. He quickly wiped his tears and cleared his throat so Emily could be aware of his presence. She looked up and sighed. He walked quickly over to her and took her in his arms. She buried her head in his neck and let all her frustration out. The two stayed like that for quite some time, until Blaise noticed that Emily fell asleep in his arms. He carried her back to the Slytherin common room and placed her on the couch. He grabbed a blanket and laid it over her. He pushed a few strands of hair out of her face and kissed her forehead. He whispered a quick 'I love you' into her ear and walked away. In the corner though was Draco Malfoy.

            Draco had heard the common room portrait open and he looked over from his book to see that it was Blaise. He was carrying Emily though. He saw him lay her on the couch and place a blanket atop her. Draco also noticed him push her hair out of her face and then kiss her. Draco was outraged but didn't want to blow his cover. He sat and watched Blaise whisper something that put a smile on Emily's pale pink lips. Draco sat there watching Emily intently. She looked so angelic sleeping there. A few moments later though, Emily's eyes opened rather quickly as she bolted up in a silent scream. Draco ran over to her and sat down next to her. He put a comforting arm around her and pulled her close to him. He turned her face towards him and lifted her chin with his index finger. She gazed into his eyes and gave him a gentle smile. He returned it and asked her what was wrong.

            "I had the dream again. Every night I go to sleep but it keeps coming back to haunt me. Remember last night? Well I didn't have the dream. That was the first night I never had it, besides the nights with Blaise. I have tried dreamless sleep potions, but they never worked…" she trailed off as she saw the concerned look in his eyes.

            "What are these dreams you are having?" He inquired while holding on to her tightly.

            "My reoccurring dreams are the death of my family, when the aurors came to our manor. Except lately it wasn't my family that was killed. It was you."

a/n: How was that? 3,196 words! And counting as I type…. But I worked for quite some time on this one, well actually only an hour or two, but ff.net wasn't working. I couldn't upload and I felt like crap. Oh well here it is now *does victory dance* What will Draco's reaction be? Hmmmm a cliffey…. Muahaha. I am done.
