A/N: I'm evil aren't I? Well not that evil. If I was pure evil I wouldn't
post the next chapter 'till next week, but I'm not pure evil. Here's the
next chapter. Enjoy!
"It is my misfortune to inform you....." Dumbledore started. He glanced at Pansy, then quickly averted his gaze. "that Pansy's sister Lucy is deceased."
I saw Pansy crumble to the floor, crying. I knew she had been close to her sister. I didn't know what to do, what to think. Blaise knelt down and comforted her. I looked over at Draco who was looking at his friends on the floor.
"Then why were we all dragged out of our beds?" Ronald said.
I looked at my brother. He looked disgusted with the fact that he was woken up to hear the horrible news about Lucy. I've never been so ashamed of him as I did then.
"RON!!!!!" I said in a shocked voice.
"Mr Weasley, I thought it important because you are a house. What effects one of you effects al of you." Dumbledore said rather impatiently.
"Who cares about Pansy and her family problems." Ron said. "I'm going back to bed." And he did, but I had to stop Draco from charging after him.
"Don't make things worse." I whispered to him. Draco was still furious with Ron, but he eased down.
"Professor, how did this happen?" I asked.
"As you know Muggle studies are now available to first years. There was a field trip to London and she got hit by a motor car." He answered. Then looking at Pansy. "There was nothing that could be done. She died on impact."
An hour later the headmaster and Traleway were gone. Pansy had refused to sleep by her self so Blaise was sharing a bed with her. I think Hermione and Harry went to talk to Ron. And I was in the common room sitting before the fire once again, with Draco sitting beside me.
It felt awkward sitting next to him. Draco, I knew, was waiting for me to say something. The silence was actually starting to get on my nerves. To tell the truth, I hadn't even thought about the tension between me and Draco all night. But now that I think of it, I owe him something... anything.
"Listen, Draco." I started. "I'm tired. I'm going to go to bed, but will you meet me by the lake at lunch tomorrow?"
"I will." He said. It was almost like he hadn't heard me. I pushed the thought out of my mind, and made my way across the common room to the stairs that led to my dorm room. "Gin?" I heard him call after me.
"Yeah?"
"Did I do something wrong?" It was weird because he actually sounded sincere. It wasn't something I was used to coming out of Draco Malfoy.
I shook my head in response and went up to my dorm. I would tell him in the morning. No! Yes! Yes! I'll tell him in the morning.
A/N: Yes I know. Another short chapter. I guess you'll just have to wait for the next chapter. Until then.... Review, Flame, or don't do anything at all.
