Daddy told me look into the future
Sit at your computer, be a good girl
And Mama said remember you're a lady,
Think before your play and straighten your curls,
'What?' Draco heard music and singing coming from the Gryffindor common room. It was Christmas at Hogwarts and everyone was partying. Draco had taken a walk from his common room, because the Slytherin's that had stayed were getting on his nerves. Its not like he didn't like Slytherin - he did, its just that there were so many people from Slytherin who were going to be death-eaters, and in Draco's point-of-view, he didn't want to be one. Not that he didn't used to want to be one, he did, but then he started to realize he didn't want to be like his father. He didn't want to have to hurt anyone, and follow orders, he wanted to be free to choose his own decisions.
Well everybody's talking like I'm crazy
Danger is a lazy girl with no soul
But I've seen it all from where I'm hiding
Baby cause I'm sliding, out of control
The music brought him back to reality, he tried to figure out who was singing, it sounded like a few girls, he thought.
"Mind out the way, coming through". Draco jumped at the sound of the voice; he turned to see Fred and George carrying crate full of butterbeer.
"Going to stand there like a fish all day Malfoy?" one of them asked.
"No" Draco replied, snapping back into the Slytherin everyone knew.
"Well why aren't you at your House party?" the other twin asked.
"It's nothing to do with you" Draco mouthed.
"Well hold these crates and come in, see how the 'goody Gryffindor's get down!" The twins said swaying slightly. Draco thought about it for a minute, he could either go back to the drunken Slytherin's or go in and watch the 'Gryffindor's get down' as the twins had put it. Draco grabbed a crate and followed the twins into the Gryffindor common room.
Here I go on the road crank the stereo
I flick my finger to the world below
Here I am, dirty hands, I don't give a damn
Shut your mouth and let's give a show
'Oh my!' Draco thought as he placed the crate on a table where the other crates had been put. He had seen who was singing and he got quite a shock. It was granger, that little Weasley girl, and two other girls in his year. He had to admit they were good singers and they knew how to dress and dance. They were all wearing matching outfits, a dark red that shimmered in the light. They had short skirts on, just past knee length and boob tube tops on with black lace like a shoelace, kriss-crossing down the front of the top. Draco had to say to himself that he was very impressed with their sense of fashion. He got comfy, in a big squashy red chair and watched as they lunched into the chorus
I don't need no good advice
I'm already wasted
I don't need some other life
Cold and complicated
I don't need no Sunday trips
To add sympathizing
I don't need no special fix
To anaesthetize me
Just then someone caught his eye, it was a girl with medium brown hair, with blonde bits in it. He recognized her straight away. It was his cousin. He didn't know much about her apart from her name, which was Carrie and that his dad fell out with her dad (they were brothers) because her dad didn't want to join Voldemort. His dad still cared about his brother and his family, Draco knew this because he had seen pictures of them in the manor. But her dad didn't want anything to with them again. He had even changed there surname. Draco wasn't sure what to, if he talked to her he would be defying his father, but then again he decided he wanted to defy is father he was his own master now. Draco stood up, before realizing Carrie had gone, sighing he sat back down.
Daddy always told me to remember,
Leave the boys, till later, don't you drop down
Mama said I'd never get to heaven
Hang out till eleven, with the wrong crowd
He turned to look at everyone else. He saw the weasley twins laughing in the middle of the room. He smiled as they saw what they were laughing at. Neville had eaten one of their trick foods and had turned into a chicken. Then he saw potter, he had some butterbeer in his hand and was watching the weasley girl as she danced and sang.
Everybody's talking like I'm only
Just another phony girl who can't play
But I dig the music that I'm making
Baby and I'll break it into your brain
He grabbed some butterbeer himself and went to stand on the steps leading to the dormitories. Just then, he saw someone walking towards him - It was potter.
"Malfoy." Harry spoke '"how come you're here?" Draco opened his mouth to speak but someone crashed into him,
"Watch it" Draco snarled at the person. It was Ron weasley.
"No, Malfoy I would watch it if I were you, your not supposed to be here," Harry replied. "But, you can stay, it's Christmas and I can't be bothered to ruin it by having a fight." Harry pulled Ron over and they started to walk off.
Here I go, on the road, crank the stereo
I flick my finger to the world below
Here I am, dirty hands, I don't give a damn
Shut your mouth and let's give a show
I don't need no good advice
I'm already wasted
I don't need some other life
Cold and complicated
I don't need no Sunday trips
To add sympathizing
I don't need no special fix
To anaesthetize me
The song had finished and all the Gryffindor burst into applause, Even Neville, who had just turned back to his normal state. He watched as Harry walked over to the Weasley girl, he couldn't remember her name, and hugged her. Harry then leant down and kissed her forehead. Draco watched them for a few more minutes until he couldn't take it any more. He got up and walked out of the common room. He was upset, he wanted to be held like that Weasley girl, and what shocked him even more, was that he wanted not anyone to hold him like that, but Harry, Harry potter.
What he didn't know, was that two pairs of eyes watched him leave. One pair belonged to his cousin, and the other belong to a certain person with emerald green eyes.
