-1Chapter 5
Before Ron and Amanda knew it, it was morning. They had spent all day and night in the 'secret' room and didn't even notice. They kissed, they talked, they did everything but that.
Amanda had fallen asleep in Ron's arms around 3 o'clock in the morning; Ron watched her sleep the rest of the night wondering what she was dreaming. 'She's even more beautiful when she's asleep.' he thought and kissed her forehead. To Ron she looked like an Angel when she slept and wished that he could watch her sleep forever, but he knew he couldn't. He looked at his watch and was surprised at the time, it was 12 o'clock in the afternoon, he wondered if anyone had noticed they were missing and if they did would Harry and Hermione tell them where they were. 'They wouldn't.' he thought and continued to watch Amanda sleep.
Just then he heard three knocks on the door and saw the door open, his heart was pumping rapidly at the thought of who it could have been. Then he saw a short, dark haired girl enter the room. It was Lizzy Brown.
Lizzy, short for Elizabeth, is good friends with Hermione, Lavender, Cho, Ginny, Pansy and herself. Lizzy tends to talk to herself a lot. She's mostly good friends with Hermione and Pansy since they lived near each other, though her family didn't appreciate muggle borns they still welcomed Hermione in their home. Lizzy was pureblood and, of course, was in Slytherin but wasn't as evil as most of the Slytherin's would have hoped for. Her family were friends with the Malfoy family, everyone knew them by this time and she knew everything about Amanda and Draco. Lizzy knew Draco liked Amanda and knew Amanda found out so she was very surprised to see her with Ron Weasley.
"What on earth has happened here?" squealed Lizzy.
"Nothing much." Ron replied.
"Obviously something happened, you look knackered, and why is Amanda still asleep?" Lizzy asked, her voice getting louder.
"Shhhh!" hissed Ron, "Don't wake her up! Anyway, why are you here? I thought you would have been with Pansy.".
"I was." said Lizzy, "But I'm looking for Hermione, I can have more than one friend other than Pansy.".
"Oh and I wonder why you're looking for Hermione." winked Ron with a smile on his face. Not many people knew this but Lizzy is bisexual and not very proud of it, she has a crush on Hermione and Neville Longbottom. Ron didn't understand why she didn't have a crush on Pansy since they were best friends and spent more time together, he didn't understand why she didn't have a crush on Amanda but Ron didn't really understand a lot of things.
"Don't give me that look Ron, I know you know but still you don't need to rub it in my face." she said now getting self-conscious.
"I'm sorry Lizzy." Ron said, "You know I'm only joking. I haven't seen Hermione anywhere, sorry. I've been in here most the time, well, all the time." said Ron now looking red.
"Oh, I see." said Lizzy, "I'll leave you two alone then.".
"It's nothing like that." Ron said, "We've been talking since Amanda hasn't been doing very well lately, she didn't feel like going to classes since, well you know, sinceā¦" he looked at Amanda and whispered "Draco is in most of her classes.".
"So you know then?" she whispered back.
"Yeah, she told me yesterday.".
Lizzy looked at Amanda and sighed, "She's been going through a lot hasn't she?". They both looked at her then looked at each other. "I better go." Lizzy said, "When Amanda wakes up tell her Draco has been looking for her". Ron nodded and watched Lizzy walk out the room.
'Why is Draco looking for her?' Ron thought, he shook this thought away and continued to watch her sleep.
Lizzy was in the Great Hall eating her lunch and sitting with Pansy, ironically Draco was sitting right opposite her.
"Have you seen her?" Draco asked.
"Is it your business if I have pr not?" Lizzy replied in a bitter tone.
"It is actually", Lizzy gave him a funny look then started to talk to herself again.
"Who the hell does he think he is? Just because he's a 'Malfoy' he thinks he can control anyone. Stupid git.".
"Erm Lizzy, I can hear you." Draco said looking a bit freaked out.
"So? Everyone can hear me because I am talking to my best friend".
Draco looked round and saw no one, except Pansy, next to her and just shrugged his shoulders.
"Anyway, did you see her or not?".
"Yes I did.". She paused.
"And?".
"And what?".
"So did you tell her I was looking for her?" Draco asked impatiently.
"Who's her?" Lizzy replied.
Draco was getting very angry. "DID YOU TELL AMANDA I WAS LOOKING FOR HER?" he shouted, everyone in the Great Hall was watching.
"Of course I did Draco, I always do, you know that. Give me some credit." Lizzy said in a teasing tone and then giggled.
Draco never did understand Lizzy, he always thought that she was a bit on the odd side and most the time he was proven right. He watched Lizzy walk out of the Great Hall and looked over at the Gryffindor table, he noticed something, or rather some people, were missing. He ran after Lizzy.
"Lizzy!" he shouted, "Lizzy, wait!". He skidded to a halt right in front of her, "Where are they?" he demanded.
"Where are who?" Lizzy asked looking confused.
"Where are Ron and Amanda?". At this Lizzy felt a lurch in her stomach, panic rushed inside of her and Draco knew immediately by the look on her face. He went red with anger and said "That room.".
