"Draco!"

Damn it! Draco wake the bloody fuck up! I'm freaking hungry and I'm about to levitate you into the Great Hall while you're still in your boxers, Blaise thought getting more annoyed by the minute. Blaise had come into the Head dorms so he could walk with Draco to the Great Hall. He had been trying to wake up Draco for the past thirty minutes to no avail. Blaise tried again and only received a grunt from the sleeping figure.

"Ugh! I give up", Blaise yelled before walking into the bathroom and coming back with a little cup of cold water. Blaise walked back to Draco and put the cup over his face before dumping it on him.

"Shit!" Draco shot up from his bed and looked in every direction around his bed until he saw Blaise laughing on the floor. Draco's hair was plastered on his head and had water dripping down the tips of his hair.

"What the hell was that for Zabini", Draco said in a low venomous voice as he glared at the laughing boy.

"That Malfoy was for not waking up when your best friend is dieing of hunger", Blaise said once he calmed down.

"Just for food you wake me up", Draco yelled.

"No, also because you get your little schedule of when you have to work with the dear little Weasel", Blaise said smiling.

"Shit………I forgot about that", Draco muttered before getting up.

"Aw poor Drake doesn't like the Gryffindor", Blaise said.

"She's the sister of that big lump and is in Gryffindor. I think, that's enough reason to dislike her", Draco said before disappearing behind the bathroom door.

"Yeah, I guess that would be enough reason for you to dislike her", Blaise said as he walked out of the room and into the common room. He took a place on the couch and started to hum some tune he had heard during the summer. Blaise closed his eyes and started to drift back to sleep considering he had woken up a bit too early for his liking. At that moment he heard a door close and footsteps in the common room.

"Draco come on I'm dieing from hunger here so stop dancing around the common room and let's go", Blaise said as he still had his eyes closed.

"Excuse me?"

"I said………..", Blaise cut off there as he finally opened his eyes to see Hermione standing in front of him with her hands on her hips.

"Did you just call me Draco………….Zabini", Hermione asked as she looked at him.

"Sorry bout that", Blaise said and realization dawned on him, he had just said sorry to a mudblood worse a Gryffindor. I did not just slip up like that, fucking shit, Blaise thought.

"You just said sorry to me", Hermione said kind of surprised herself.

"Don't think it'll be a habit. I'm just tired and quite frankly wasting my intelligence on you is too tedious", Blaise said as he let his mask fall onto his face knowing that as Hermione looked at him all she saw was an egotistical jerk.

"Look, can you just get up your lying on one of my quill not to mention my favorite one", Hermione said as she kept her eyes on him.

"Of course, can't let Granger forget her quill it would be an end to the world right there", Blaise said calmly as he stood up from the couch. Hermione stepped forward and took the quill from the spot that Blaise was sitting on. Blaise caught sight of the quill and almost let his jaw drop in shock.

"Nice….very nice. Is Granger harboring some friendly feelings toward the Slytherin house or is she daydreaming about someone in Slytherin", Blaise said as he looked at her quill. It had silver and green feathers blending together and the tip was silver.

"I don't favor your house, Zabini", Hermione said taking a step closer to Blaise. Hermione stood on tip toe so that her face was just inches from Blaise'.

"Or maybe I fancy a Slytherin……………..but that's for me to know and for you to find out", Hermione said before taking a step back and grabbing her bag. She looked Blaise in the eye before winking and walking out the door leaving Blaise in a bit of a shock.

"I can see Granger has gotten a hold of you", Draco said as he leaned against the frame of the door to his room.

"She doesn't have a hold on anything", Blaise said.

"Please Zabini, I know you so that means I also know that you've had a crush on that walking textbook since fourth year", Draco said smirking as he watched his friend's eyes go wide.

"You're hallucinating Drake, I have no feelings but hatred for the girl"

"Sure, that's why you paid that Creevy boy to take a picture of her last year which may I say is under your pillow"

"I paid Creevy to take a picture for a reason and it is not because I wanted it under my pillow"

"Blaise just admit it because we can stand here all day arguing over this when we both know you like her and unless you want to die from hunger, as you keep saying, then just admit it", Draco said.

"Shit! I hate it when you do that, because I know you can stand there and debate with me and you wouldn't tire", Blaise said aggravated. Draco and his damn mind games!, Blaise thought as he continued to glare at Draco.

"Seriously it's not all that bad. Granger is a nice girl, if I do say so myself but if you tell anyone I said that I will mutilate you", Draco said giving him a rare smile.

"Fine, I fancy the bookworm"

"That's better"

"Shut up"

"Nope, never going to happen"

Blaise made a sound of frustration before leaving the room and heading for the Great Hall. Draco followed in suit smiling the whole way. After a few minutes Blaise broke the silence.

"Don't you dare mention this to Pan", Blaise said staring Draco in the eye.

"She already knows"

"What?!"

"Yeah, she found out last year, that's why she's been teasing Granger more hoping to get you so pissed off that you would just admit your feelings for her"

"That bloody git, I'm going to kill her", Blaise said as they came to stand in front of the Great Hall door.

"Just admit it to her and she'll stop" Draco said before opening the doors once again to be wearing the mask that everyone knew him for. Blaise did the same as they made their way to the Slytherin table.

"What the hell took you both so long", Pansy said as she was pushing a lock of her dirty blonde hair behind her ear. Blaise sat next to Pansy as Draco sat across from them.

"Nothing", the boys said in unison and Pansy just rolled her eyes and continued to eat.

"So did you guys see how horrid that mudblood looks today", Pansy said and Draco gave her a glance that said 'wrong move'. Pansy looked at him with a confused expression before looking at Blaise.

"Understand this Parkinson, I fancy the girl and if you ever utter a rude comment about her I will be most happy to send you to the Hospital Wing", Blaise whispered into her ear. Pansy's eyes widened for a bit but she quickly hid it and started to smirk.

"So our dear Blaise has finally grown up. How sickeningly sweet", Pansy said making kissing noises to Blaise.

"Yes, thanks to Drake", Blaise said.

"Ugh! Pan will you stop, we don't want to be scarred for life", Draco said.

"Please, looking at your face already gives me nightmares", Pansy said.

"Hey Drake you've got mail", Blaise said smirking and both Pansy and Draco looked up to see a school owl flying toward them.

"Fuck", Draco muttered as a letter fell on top of his plate.

"Come on Drakey-poo open the letter", Pansy said and she got a death glare from Draco.

"Shut up Pan, or I'll make you eat your fork", Draco said as he turned the letter over and ripped it open.

"So what's the verdict", Blaise said.

"Mother of fuckin hell can things get any fuckin worse", Draco said to himself as he pushed the letter toward Blaise.

"Wow, this tutoring thing is serious", Blaise said as Pansy nodded in agreement. The schedule was time taking.

Dear Mister Malfoy,

Quidditch practice, detentions, school events, and/or medical reasons will be your only way canceling a day/s of tutoring. Please note, that this is a serious commitment and that failing to do this job will earn you a failing grade in the Potions. Your schedule is noted below.

Tuesday- free

Wednesday 8:00 pm to 9:00pm

Thursday- free

Friday- 8:00pm to 11:30pm

There will be a sign in sheet given to you. If you fail to show up for your tutoring it will result in a detention. You will still be expected to turn in your assignments on times. Thank you for accepting this task.

Sincerely,

Albus Dumbledore

"Draco I feel bad for you", Pansy said quietly so that no one but the three could hear.

"Yeah, two to four hours with Weaslette and that girl wants to kill you", Blaise added.

"I know someone in this school has to be off the damn bloody rocker to think I'll be able to last that long without hexing the girl", Draco said as he took the letter back from Blaise and shoved it into his bag.

"Maybe it won't be that bad", Pansy said trying to get her two best friends from frowning. Pansy was known as the bitch of Slytherin but only Blaise and Draco knew that she was just pretending at the she really was a sucker for happy ending. It was sickening at times butthey loved her like a sister.

"Sure, when hell freezes over", Draco said but giving Pan a wink of reassurance.

"Okay, enough with the smiles we got class and a reputation to up hold", Blaise said sarcastically as he stood up. Draco and Pansy nodded in agreement and stood up also. They left the Great Hall and walked toward Divination.

"Someone remind me why we keep taking this bloody class when we all know it's a bunch of crap", Pansy said as they walked up the winding steps.

"Because it was either this or Muggle Studies", Draco said through small takes of air.

"I don't want Muggle Studies, that would kill me", Blaise said as he tried to breath correctly.

"Well for once I'd rather learn about muggles then go up these godforsaken steps", Pansy said annoyed.

They made it up the stairs alive and almost collapsed into their spots. They took the few minutes before class started to control their breathing back to normal. As the other seventh years flooded into the room Professor Trelewany entered the room with her odd smelling perfume.

"Can't that woman for once wear something that doesn't smell of rotten meat", Blaise said gagging.

"She would be better with smelling like vanilla", Pansy said.

"Pan don't get started on your vanilla crap again", Draco warned. Ever since fifth year Pansy had been addicted to the smell of vanilla when Draco and Blaise bought her a set of lotions, bath gel, and such that all smelled like vanilla. Sines then both have regretted it completely.

"Fine", Pansy huffed half heartedly.

"Today class we will be looking into the crystal ball for images of what your true love will look like", Professor Trelewany said excitedly.

"Bloody hell", Draco muttered.

The professor gave out the instructions and class began to work with trying to find something in the crystal ball in front of them.

"Draco are you paying attention to your true love image", Blaise said amused.

"No", Draco replied as he stared at the ceiling completely bored out his wits.

"Maybe you should", Pansy said as she placed a hand over her mouth trying to stifle a giggle from escaping her lips.

"You should look seriously", Blaise said chuckling.

"Fine……..what is the big bloody…..", Draco cut off right there as he looked into the crystal ball. The image in it made him fall out his chair.

"I guess that Weaslette is going to give you more trouble than you realize", Blaise said as Pansy burst into laughter.

The crystal ball glowed as Ginny's image floated inside smiling. Fuck, why did it have to be her?, Draco thought as he sat back in his place staring at the ball.

"That bloody crystal is wrong", Draco said calmly.

"I believe not Mister Malfoy", the professor said from behind Draco causing all three to jump in surprise.

"Well it is, I don't care for Gryffindors and further more I don't care for muggle loving freaks", Draco said looking the professor in the eye.

"You don't have to believe the crystal ball Mister Malfoy just know that when the time comes the image you see now has been telling the truth", she said before walking away.

"She's crazy, everything in this class is rubbish", Draco said frustrated by what she said.

"But", Pansy said but she got cut off.

"No buts, Weaslette is nothing but trash and I would not in any way fall for her", Draco said.

"I think he is in big denial over what he feels for Weasley's little sister", Blaise whispered to Pansy.

"What do you mean, can't you see he dislike the girl", Pansy said confused as she glanced at Draco.

"I mean when I came into his dorm room he was smiling in his sleep and the only name that was uttered in his state of unconsciousness was Ginerva", Blaise whispered in reply.

"Are you sure"

"Yes"

"Then our best friend is in for a long year", Pansy said sympathetically.

"I believe he is"

"But so are you"

"What do you mean?"

"I mean the feelings you feel for Granger and how you're going to tell her", Pansy whispered.

"That will not happen, she will never know", Blaise said as he turned to Draco and started talking about the upcoming Quidditch season.

"Why do my dear brothers have to be such stubborn mules", Pansy muttered as she cast the spell to see her true love.

"It can't be", Pansy said with her eyes wide. She stared at the crystal ball before quickly muttering the counter spell and the image disappeared.

"Did you do your true love thing yet Pan", Draco asked.

"No, I don't feel like I have to"

"Why", Blaise asked.

"Because it takes away the mystery of finding him", Pansy replied smiling a bit before changing it to a smirk.

"Oh ok", Blaise said.

The bell rang and they all left for their next class, Herbology. Draco and Blaise walked ahead of Pansy as she thought of what she just saw.

It can't be, it just can't be. Why him?! He despises me with every fiber of his being! Thank god Draco and Blaise didn't see or they would have laughed at me till no end……………………..but why him! Why it had to be Ronald Weasley I'll never know, Pansy thought sadly because in all truth she fancied Ron for quite a while now but no one but her journal knew. She quickened her pace to catch up with the two. They made it their next class but barely paid attention for their minds were clouded by other circumstances.
