Draco drags Arie to the 2nd floor corridor, and leans against one of the great stone columns. He shifts uneasily, "You can't be doing stuff like that, Arie. Pansy is a force to be reckoned with, she's on all the teachers good sides, and she's completely infatuated with me!"
"So?" Arie said shrugging, "I can take her anytime. I'd like to hit her one good time, right in the nose!" She slammed her fist into her hand, "She just makes me so angry..."
"I know, I know..." Draco murmurs.
They stood in silence for a moment, and they heard footsteps. Arie raised her brows, leaning against the wall.
The footsteps moved closer, and it was none other than the Gryffindor Quiddich team, covered in dirt and windblown. Pulling up the rear of the group was Potter, and Weasly. Ron was scratching the back of his head, "Oh, I dunno Harry..."
"C'mon Ron, just help me out... I don't know how to tell her..." Harry sounded distressed, "I don't want to have to go to Hermione, I mean, puh-lease..."
Draco and Arie looked at each other, and in one instant she understood. Her eyes went wide, and she nearly choked on her own spit. Draco rose his brows, as if to say, 'Are you okay?' She nodded, holding up a hand.
"Alright, alright, Harry, but it's not my fault if she totally rejects you, okay?" Ron says lazily, "After all, you are you... Danger stalks you."
"THanks for the encouragement Ron..." Harry says sarcastically, "I'll come to you when I need support."
The boys laughed, and hurried to get changed.
Draco made sure they were gone before he spoke, "Did he say that... He...?"
Arie nodded, "Yup, can you believe it?"
"Not one bit." Draco said shaking her head, "I can't even begin to understand. However, I can't help but wondering, who?"
She shrugged, "Whoever she is, is about to be in a heap of danger, and trouble, ay?"
Draco grinned, "You said it, I almost feel sorry for the poor girl."
"Almost."
They smirked and ambled down to the Slytherin common room.
