"I'm very sorry to disturb you but I was just looking for the library for Sophie and I to do some reading." "Oh, what a beautiful cat!" Hermione screamed as she beant down to pet her. Sophie meowed softly and rolled on her back for Hermione to rub her tummy. "You know, I have a cat too, his name is Crookshanks, want me to go get him? That we our cats can have something to do while we go to the library." Isabel nodded and watched the other girl run off down the hall. She soon arrived with a ginger tabby cat that immediatly took to Sophie. He was purring and rubbing up against her, while Sophie just simply sat there with her tail wrapped across her toes. (A/N: this is the way my two kitties met, and Sophie did just that :-D)
"Well they've seemed to hit it off, lets go shall we" Hermione said leading off to the library. When they arrived there were a few students there already but they didnt even seem to notice Hermione enter. 'She must be here pretty often for them to not even look up' she thought. The 2 girls soon found a table and Hermione sat at one end Belle at the other and the cats shared a chair, purred and went to sleep. Belle went to look for a book while Hermione had already set out and started on some things.
When she had returned with her book there were two boys talking with the other girl. The one was a tall red-headed boy and the other a little shorter with black hair. "Oh here she is" Hermione guestered "this is Isabel" The two boys then looked at her and smiled. She out-stretched her hand to kindly say hello but neither of them did the same. She then dropped her hand and sighed, "Excuse me" she said and grabbed Sophie to leave. "You dont have to go" Hermione yelled after her. "I'm sorry" came the taller red headed boys voice " my name is Ronald Weasley" He said walking up to her. "I really am sorry, I guess my mind went on holiday, please forgive me." He said about a foot away from her.
"Well how can I be angry with a guy who is so apolagetic?" she said stepping just a little closer to him. He was now gazing down into her emerald eyes as she spun slowly on her heel and walked off with Sophie running behind her. Before she exited she turned and said "See ya at supper Ron" and was gone. When she arrived back at the Slytherin common room she quickly ran up to her room to get dressed for dinner. She took her hair out of its strong braid and let it rest down her back in curly waves. She then switched into a short black skirt, a shirt that was zebra print and fastend behind her neck. She also put on a pair of black boots that reached up to her knees and a zebra print cowboy hat.
When she got back to the common room Blaise was the first to approach her. She thought it was adorable as he had nothing to say at all and looked like a fish out of water. "Close your mouth Zambini, its not polite to leave your jaw dropped in front of a lady." Draco said as he pushed his way in front of Blaise. Belle gave a half smile as Draco gave her a cold stare. She remembered this from when they were kids and went along with him as they walked out of the common room. As soon as they were in a corridor she asked him what was wrong. "I know who your betroven too, and I know that has to be very hard for you to be looking forward to as a future." she looked down and sighed "Thats why I was transferred, so I could chose my Weasley, if I dont choose then I end up with Percy. Last time I saw Percy he said that we would sleep together next time. I told him we wouldnt but he just said oh yes we will and laughed. My father wants to know within the end of the year. Draco, you know them better than I do. Which one is better for me?" she said with a hurt look on her face and staring up at him.
"None of them are good for you! None of them ever will be, they cant protect you like I can! They cant make you happy like I can! You were supposed to be with me, not with them, and I sure as hell cant choose one of them for you! Remember the tornado, I didnt leave you and I never will, dont make me leave you now Belle!" he said resting his head on hers. A tear dripped down her cheek "Draco, from our very first kiss I knew that you were my prince, I knew that I would love you forever. You were my first love, and I want you to be my last." she said leaning up and kissing him. She wrapped her arms around his neck and held him there for this kiss. She never wanted to let go, they then took a break with them both heaving loudly. She opened her eyes and looked up into his "Draco, I love you" She said as she hugged him.
