Slytherins. Lovely.

"I can't stand that Tracey Davis wench." she complained, seating herself before to him.
"And no one can stand you, what's your point?" Draco quipped, buttering his toast.
"Moody today, eh?"
"Something like that."
"Not enough sleep? What, your little Gryff too much to handle?"
Pansy stared as the blonde bit into his toast, trying ignoring her comment. But he was clutching that butter-knife a little too hard.
"Oh dear, touched a nerve, have I?"
He dropped everything in his hands and looked across the table at her.
"Parkinson?"
"Yes, luv?"
"Shut your fucking trap before I set Davis on you. And, believe you me, she won't be as polite as I'm being."
Pansy pursed her lips together and added sugar to her tea. But the silence did not last long enough.
"So, you didn't get any last night, hm?"
"Shut up."
"Poor Draco, you know you can always come to me to help you with that."
Pansy was shocked as Draco reached over the table and grabbed the front of her robes. "Shut your filthy mouth now, Parkinson." he hissed, his eyes flashing, "You know it isn't like that with Ginevra. You know I love her."
Draco released her and swept out of the Great Hall without a word. Pansy still sat, shocked and stunned into silence, even when Gregory Goyle came up and took the seat across from her.
"Smooth Parky, very smooth."
She looked away from Greg. Pansy stood and began to make her way to her bedroom.
Love? He loved a Weasley? How could he?
"He loves her." she whispered, tears clouding her vision.
She supposed, on some level, that she had always had a hope inside of her that they would patch things up and get back together. That they would be happy. But, she was wrong about that and he was in love with Ginevra Weasley.
It was a good thing his father was in Azkaban, otherwise there wouldn't be a Draco Malfoy anymore.
She slid down against the wall outside her room into a sitting position with her knees pulled into her chest and cried.
He loves her. Not you. And you can't still love him.
"And I don't."
