You could say that it was my fault for running into Draco but I couldn't help it. When people just creep out of the shadows while you are gazing at the one you love, it is just like asking for an accident.

"Potter." He sneered making the name I love so well sound like garbage.

"Malfoy." Harry was glaring daggers at the pale boy, as he grabbed my arm to pull me away from him. If I hadn't been so caught up in the moment I could have started jumping up and down, for Harry Potter was touching me. "Come on lets go." He said to Ron and Hermione, who seemed to have taken up battle stances.

Malfoy blocked Harry's exit. "I have a friend who wants to talk to the girl, Monique, who ran into me."

I began to open my mouth to ask his name and who his friend was, but hey as long as this friend wasn't his knuckle I would live, I think. Harry cut me off before I could say anything anyway. "Malfoy what do you want with her?"

"Since when do you care about what some girl does? Does Cho know?" Asked Draco tauntingly.

"Cho and I aren't going out!" He turned red again (I wish they took pictures of him when he is embarrassed, it is so cute!)

"If I wasn't a prefect I would punch you right about now!" growled Ron.

"What was that Weasley? Care to say that again?" He asked, motioning for the two boys behind him to step up. I don't think the two go the message, cause all they did was look behind them. Draco gave and exasperated sigh and glanced behind his shoulder. I would have watched more but Ron pulled me away.

"What would Draco want with her?" Ron muttered to Harry (Boys don't have any idea how well girls can hear or else they don't care if you hear).

"Ask her."

"You."

"No you"

"Harry are you afraid to ask her?"

"No"

"Then you ask her."

"You're the one who want's to know."

Hermione gave up with listening. Turning back to me she asked in a casual tone, "So how do you know Draco?"

I thought for a moment before telling her, "I ran into him yesterday while trying to find my common room. Apparently I was in Slytherin territory and he needed to punish me. I.I.I kicked him and ran."

Hermione burst out laughing, "I wish I had been there to see that! You might want to avoid Draco thought, I am willing to bet that his pride has been wounded and he is just looking for revenge."

Harry was looking at me with new respect. "You kicked Malfoy?" he asked.

His green eyes, his black hair, that perfect little scar, I would answer yes to anything he asked, meaning I only nodded. Ron was now laughing with Hermione, "Next time you kick him, call us. Oh I can't imagine how his face looked. Remember the time Hermione." all the way down to the great hall I heard Draco stories from their previous year.

About a second after entering the hall Jean jumped me on. "What in the name of Merlin did you think you were doing? Did you know you could have been caught?" he yelled in my ear.

I think Jean was a little to close to me and Harry was a little to far, so I made things right. "Did you get my bag?" I asked as I moved closer to Harry. Harry didn't seem to mind for someone distracted him in the distance. Looking round I saw what had to be Cho. "Perfect timing, " I muttered to no one in particular.

Jean seemed to be the only one who heard me. Harry was to still gaping, and Ron and Hermione seemed to be used to this. Jean gave me a sad smile and motioned to me to the Hufflepuff table. I followed reluctantly, hoping Harry or one of his friends would call me back. Nothing of the sort happened. Once back at the table I was given another lecture about cutting class, and how it was my responsibility to make a good impression on the teachers for the sake of the school. I just hope Mary Sue doesn't get wind of this or I will have yet another lecture to listen to.

Lunch seemed to drag by. No one would let me live down my "horribly disrespectful and ruthless behavior" during DA. I was extremely glad to be outside and heading for a little hut for my next class. "This teacher," whispered Jean to Monica and I, "is supposed to be the one who Madam fell for. He too is half giant."

"Hate to burst your bubble Jean, but he, like Madam disappeared over the summer." I said wisely.

"Is that so? Well then, as I recall Professor Grubbly-Plank going to be the teacher if Hagrid isn't present," came the voice of Charity, causing me to jump.

"Funny thing is that Hagrid greeted us yesterday." Commented Jean dryly.

Well we can't all be super intelligent and know everything can we? How was I supposed to know? It's not like I was paying attention to Hagrid, Harry was on my mind after all.

Monica looked overjoyed to see Charity. "Oh Charity how have things been for you? I have yet to find anyone here who can, how was it you said.oh yes 'state the obvious' as well as you can." She started. Monica and Charity then briskly walked ahead of Jean and I.

"Well I am glad Monica has some one intelligent to talk to." I muttered, feeling somewhat hurt and how she had just ditched us.

"Hard feelings on your side? You two barely talked. I'm the one who should be feeling hurt."

I glanced at him, from the look on his face I was willing to bet that he was feeling far from hurt. Maybe it's a guy thing, cause Harry didn't look hurt when I left him, and I am sure that he is now pining for me. Jean and I walked the rest of the way in silence.

When all four of us had arrived to class we all found that Hagrid was indeed the teacher. Today in class we learned about zorcans. These are the weirdest creatures ever imagined! I can't believe that Hagrid said they were harmless, I mean they were zebras with claws and fangs. Whenever someone got near them they would rear up on their hind legs and hiss at us like snakes. No one was able to approach them during class, Hagrid tried and tried but it was impossible. Even Charity and Monica wouldn't go near.
