Chapter Seven: The not-so-subtle truth

A/n: To the demanding request of my dear friend Bel, I have been convinced to get off my lazy arse and type this damned chapter. Therefore, if I fail the next math test, I can blame it on her D Enjoy….

"Headmaster, I believe we have a problem" Rhia mimicked nastily ash she walked with Draco. The two sullen slytherins made their ways back to their common room. After a stern talking to, and the handing out of detention for a few nights with Snape, Rhia was thoroughly pissed off at the both of them.

"I can't believe the bloody poof gave us detention." Draco drawled angrily. "its not like we were shagging or anything." He rolled his eyes as they stopped in front of Rhia's dorm. Mere and Mel were in the great hall.

Rhia laughed," well it probably looked like that" She said with a short wave and disappeared into her dorm.

"Hi Rhianna!" came the voce of the little Tijana, who seemed to be floating in the lotus position above Rhia's bed. Her eyes were closed and she was meditating. Out of the corner of her mouth was a tightly rolled joint. Rhia jumped a little, then looked the girl up and down.

"First, my name is Rhia. Only my father calls me Rhianna. Second, what the hell are you doing here Tijana? And third, no smoking pot in here!" Rhia said, walking over and grabbing the pot, stuffing it in Mel's wastebasket.

"I knew there was something with you and marijuana." She mumbled rolling her eyes. Tijana smirked, opening one eye. "So?" she said.

"Just…stop it" Rhia said, "it's a bad habit to have if you look eight years old most of the time" She crossed her arms.

Tijana just smiled maliciously and shrugged.

"Now why the fuck did you just decide to chill in my room, and what do you want?" Rhia snapped.

"Oh…it's not what I want. Its what you want" She answered with a smirk.

"And that is?"

"Monsieur Draconius Malfoy."

"I do not!" Rhia gasped, half surprised, half angry Tijana would say that.

"Oh yes you do. I can read minds remember? Deep down you so want him." Tijana smiled, coming down from her lotus position. The small girl now stood in front of Rhia, and Rhia had to practically bend down to see her face.

"You cannot tell that!" Rhia said.

"So you like him?"

"No!"

"Oh c'mon I can tell you love him, his hair. His eyes. Those muscles. " Tijana smirked once more.

"Well I guess he is quiet striking…" Rhia said, and then shook her head quickly.

"Ah-ha! See! You do want him to slip you the sausage!" Tijana cried happily.

Rhia gasped again. "Oh my Gawd, that is so GROSS! You are very sick and twisted for an eight year old!"

The blonde girl shrugged, "If you say so…I could just get worse until you tell me the truth"

"Puh-lease do not do that!" Rhia pleaded.

"I know you want him…alone. Think of all the fun you had in Snape's office. Over the holidays perhaps? Remember those cold winter nights…you had the same bed…"

"Fine" Rhia mumbled barely audible. Tijana smirked, a job well done.

"Hmm?" she said.

"I like Malfoy" Rhia mumbled, a bit louder.

"I can't hear you"

"I LIKE Malfoy!" Rhia said, exasperated. She sighed. "Are you happy now?!"

"Yes." Tijana said with a wave and disappeared. Rhia rolled her eyes.

-------------------------------------

Draco jumped in his seat as a small girl of eight appeared in front of him, sitting on his desk nonchalantly. "Hello Draco!" she sing-songed.

"What the bloody effing hell are you doing Tijana?" Draco growled, standing up and backing away. If he did it slowly…maybe she wouldn't see him leave. Like wolves or other predators. (ha)

"Oh just dropping by!" she said, swinging her legs back and forth.

"What do you want?" he asked.

"Just, a friendly chat. Mm'kay?" Tijana smiled.

"About...?"

"Rhia" the girl said with another shrug.

"The bloody slut. Why?" he said crossing his arms.

"Don't gimme that Malfoy. You looooove her!" she teased.

"Do not."

"Do too."

"Oh?"

"Oh. Just think about her…the long raven flowing black hair, bright purple eyes, body you would die to get a piece of. Although you might already have…" she smirked once more.

"Are you implying I have, and or want to shag her?" He said bluntly.

"Yes Draco. You want to shag her." She said with a sigh.

"I'm sixteen for Christ-sakes. And a guy. I want to shag everything." He said, rolling his eyes.

"So you like her?"

"No"

"Yeah!"

"No"

"Would you bet you're life…?" Tijana smirked, "I can tell if your lying, if you are…say bye-bye to Mister Malfoy" She said jumping off the table and landing in front of her.

"Fine" he hissed.

"Hmm?'

"Yes I do like Rhia, yes I think she's pretty, and yes I want to shag her!" Draco growled, apparently really pissed off at the little witch in front of him.

Tijana sighed happily. "I knew it"

"Whatever." Draco rolled his eyes again.

"You know…all this talk about Shagging is making me want to…where's Fred and George?" Tijana waved and disappeared suddenly.

"Gross" Draco muttered.

This was all too perfect.
