Something Right

"Well it's about time you came back," Pansy Parkinson said as soon as she saw Draco, now completely changed back into himself, enter the Slytherin Common Room. "I was beginning to worry about you," she said, following him as she took a seat on the leather couch near the fire. She sat beside him, closer than anyone normally would.

"Pansy," he said suddenly, as if remembering something. He turned to look at her pretty face. Pansy had always been devilishly beautiful. And she had that cute evil grin to match. But Draco found himself thinking of the innocent brown eyes he'd been looking into just a few moments ago.

"What is it, Draco?" she asked, moving even closer towards him.

"I was just wondering," he said, pushing the thought about the Mudblood out of his brain. "How do you feel whenever we kiss?" he asked.

Pansy blushed and gave a little giggle. "Well," she looked up at him. "How do you want me to feel?" She looked so excited and eager to please him, for a moment, he thought her more pathetic than Granger.

Without warning, he leaned down and kissed her, right on the mouth, and for a second he heard her whimper, surprised, but pleased, and then she started kissing him back, using all the tricks she knew, touching her tongue between his lips, coaxing them open.

He abruptly pulled away. He didn't feel anything while kissing her and he'd had enough. He stood up and headed for the boys' dormitory.

"Draco," Pansy said, following him. "What's the matter? Is something wrong?" she asked, pouting.

Wrong? Draco repeated in his head. No. Something was right. The Mudblood was right once again.

Weasley had something he didn't.


Author's Note:

Okay, this was supposed to be the end of this story, but due to some really good reviews (Thanks very much to everyone who did review!), I guess I am going to continue it since, it really isn't fair anyway to keep a lot of stuff hanging namely, Harry and Ron's mischief, and Hermione's being out-of- character. There's actually an explanation to that, which, I guess I wasn't able to show from the dialogue (I really need to improve my writing skills), even if Draco had mentioned that she was acting weirder than usual. See, actually, before Draco walked into the picture, Hermione and Ron were already having some sort of disagreement, that's why Hermione thought Ron was in the library to apologize to her. As to what they disagreed about, well, that's probably related to the whole issue on the balcony, which, I guess I will have to explain in further chapters.

Anyway, thanks so much to all who reviewed, and hopefully I'll be able to update on this soon. Thanks!
