RECAP ON CHAPTER THREE:
…………………The room was beautiful; the room had a forest atmosphere. On the wall were portraits of two students dating back since the school was made. She saw a portrait that caught her attention, it was young Severus Snape and a girl named Artemis Herent. The girl was beautiful, she had long golden curls and bright blue eyes; she smiled and looked up at Severus who smiled back. Severus himself wasn't looking bad either; he had flipped out skate boarder hair and had a little bit of muscle on his body. "Welcome to the Pièce De Forêt, if you have any questions ask one of the portraits," Artemis giggled as Severus kissed her cheek.
Alice laughed she looked at all the portraits; they all waved and smiled at her. She noticed an empty one waiting to be filled it read, Alice Scorpton & Draco Malfoy, on a little golden labeljust like the door.
Sighing Alice went into one of the rooms and put her purse down, the room had a fire going and seemed like home to her with the big canopy bed. Alice flopping herself down and shortly after, she fell asleep, "Alice, I apologize if I…." Draco started stepping into the room and saw that she was asleep. He took the blanket that was over the chair near the fire and covered her with it, kissing her lips lightly. "Goodnight my Selene," he whispered looking out into the crescent moon through her windows…………..
Chapter Four: Pushing Away
Sitting in Professor Snape's room jotting notes down, Draco's arm felt like it was being ripped to pieces. He grasped it, dinging his fingers into his sleeve. 'He shouldn't be calling me, I can't just leave. Snape feels it too, he would become suspicious.' Draco thought looking through his bangs at the teacher who only flinched a little; he eyed Draco who was digging his fingers so deep into his skin that he was bleeding. Draco let go of his arm when Professor Snape looked at him, going back to his notes. "Something wrong Mr. Malfoy? You seem in pain," Professor Snape sneered as he sauntered over to Draco.
"Arm spasm, sir," Draco explained, he felt his heart beat in his head, pounding in a steady rhythm, it seemed like his brain was being hammered into his skull. Sucking in his breath and slowly letting it out he looked over at Harry Potter who was talking to Ron. 'He should die, both of them. I wouldn't be in this predicament if it weren't for Potter. Damn my father, damn the dark arts, and damn anything to do with Voldemort.' Draco thought bitterly.
"Well, Mr. Malfoy, there is no need to be cocky," Professor Snape snapped going back up to the front. "Don't make me add to your detention Malfoy; you don't want to suffer because of your mouth." Draco looked up and his piercing eyes looked at Professor Snape, as he mouthed "Traitor." He didn't believe in this, but he knew that it would get under Severus Snape's skin.
Professor Snape slammed his hands on the desk his scowl deepening as he lashed out at Draco, "I dare say Malfoy, you sure have the mouth. Spoiled rotten I see you won't be able to hide behind daddy anymore when this school year is over. I'd like to see you then, just to see if you really are the man that you word yourself to be. When I do come across you Malfoy, in the future, I will not feel guilty when I stun you."
Draco smirked seething with anger he hissed, "Then I will not feel guilty when I kill you." It seemed like you could feel the hatred between the two, almost so toxic that you could be killed immediately. "CLASS DISMISSED!" Snape yelled on the top of his lungs. Draco smirked, satisfied with being able to get underneath his former favorite professor's skin. He walked by Snape, and spat at his feet.
Expelling anyone from Hogwarts would be dangerous at this time, especially for the Slytherin students. Dumbledore new that if he even dared to expel any students, they were sure to join the side of the Death Eaters. Draco walked away, clearly not wanting to take anything back.
He snickered going into his dormitory lying on his bed he pulled up his sleeve and stared at the deep wounds around the Death Eater mark. He took out his wand and healed the gashes, he looked out the door and there Alice came in.
He frowned, 'I shouldn't bring her into anything. I don't know what came over me, to let her feel welcomed for such a short period of time. Maybe she'd be good for something. Just maybe I could get something out of her; I mean does she think I'm going to be satisfied with just kisses? I couldn't do that to her, she's a Scorpton. Scorpton's are not the family you want to screw around with. But didn't she say that she only had her step-mom? Never mind, Father told me there are tons of Scorpton families left, but what extent would they care? Do they value Miss Alice Scorpton? Maybe this could work out, Father would kill me. I can hear him now, "Deflowering a Scorpton? Are you shooting for insane BOY! The Scorpton's are the purest family to be known in the Wizarding world. You will make this up; we could never loose the alliance of the Scorpton's power." Sounds like a great lecture, tedious indeed. I'll have to think on this, do I really want Alice Scorpton under me? I mean I could get any girl in bed for a night, but do I want Alice? Most defiantly yes, but the after effects are horrendous. Ah, the wonders of just shagging some one senseless.'
Draco put on a black shirt, throwing the blood stained white one in the fire. "I guess, I'll try it out… just to see," Draco mumbled smirking. He went out to the living room they shared sitting next to Alice, Draco wiped off the smirk and looked sincere. "Alice, I apologize if I ever offended you. I promise I'll never do such a horrendous thing again," he said looking into her eyes.
"Apology accepted, I over reacted," Alice whispered. Draco grinned, 'Well this is working to my advantage.' He put his arm around her and his grin disappeared, the innocence in her eyes was unbearable. 'I can't hurt her, she's too innocent. Too pure, to everything I would never want to taint.' He got up and kissed her cheek, going back to his room he closed the door tightly he fell face down into his pillows. "Just a couple minutes ago… I wanted to screw her senseless… why must the world be filled with justice?" he growled into his pillows.
''''''''''''
"That was weird," Alice mumbled, resting her head on the back of the couch. "He's obliviously shooting for insanity," she spoke. Shrugging she pulled out her homework, she did it diligently. When it was dinner she knocked on Draco's door, "Draco, do you want me to bring you something back?" she asked sweetly. Draco opened the door with groan, "That would be nice, I feeling under the weather."
Alice spun around, he was only wearing his boxers she put her hands over her eyes mumbling, "Draco, I'd appreciate it if you didn't walk around like that."
"Alright, I'll walk around in the buff next time," he said pulling on a shirt. Alice picked up her bag and walked out the door not looking back. She was going to the house elves kitchens, not to the great hall.
As she went into the kitchens seeing the house elves running around a Slytherin boy sat waiting for his own food. Theodore Nott, a tall handsome, curly brown headed, hazel eyed, all around gorgeous guy. "Alice Scorpton, so nice to see you," he smoothly said. Alice smiled sitting down next to him.
"Theodore Nott, I'm glad to see you," Alice said feeling a little flirty. He smiled, "Theo, please Alice, no need to be proper," he said in the up most charming voice. Alice blushed; she had to admit… the man had skills.
"So…umm… Theo what are doing down here all alone?' Alice asked trying to change the subject. Theodore smiled and leaned back putting his arm behind him he casually said, "I felt like eating without rampaging girls breathing down my neck."
Alice giggled and almost said something until a house elf came up, "How can I help you Misses?" Alice told him two turkey sandwiches, and salad. "Hungry aren't you?" Theo asked scooting toward Alice even closer. Alice sighed, "No, one of the sandwiches if for Draco. He's feeling under the weather."
Theo frowned he was cooking up a lie… it would easy to imprint an image of Malfoy in her mind, "Draco's a womanizer, and I wouldn't get so attached to him if I were you. I've seen most of the girls in this school in his bed. He's really nice to them in the beginning, always there with "don't listen to them, you are beautiful" talk and little kisses on the cheek. Then he gets hungry and expects the girl in his bed for a night and totally forgets about her. That's how he approaches every girl. I just don't want you to be the next."
Alice almost cried,"I knew he was out of his normal character, I guess I'm just ignorant like that." Theo shook his head and tucked her hair behind her ear, "No, your not…Draco's just slick like that. I'll come back with you, if you want." Alice nodded Theo took the food and they walked back to the dormitories. "Draco, here's you dinner, Theo and I are going to do our homework together," Alice brazenly said through the door. Draco slung open the door and gave Theodore a stare and took the food, he quickly slammed the door in their faces.
Theo and Alice took their food to the coffee table in the living room. "So glad you told me that Theo," Alice coyly whispered. Theo nodded swallowing his food, "I told you, a girl like you shouldn't have to go through that. You deserve some one who actually likes you for you, and not for a night."
Alice smiled, 'Theo is actually nice, or is he playing the same game as Draco?' Her smile vanished and she icily said, "Don't play the same game as Draco was… or I'm going to kill you and make your hide into a purse."
Theo laughed, "I'd never stoop that low Alice, plus everyone knows that Scorpton's are a dangerous family to mess with." Alice playfully pushed Theo, "So glad to know that I'm dangerous. Do you still want to speak to me?" Theo laughed he kissed her lips with urgency and she let in. He broke the kiss with a whisper, "Of coarse Alice, I'm fondly attracted to danger." The rest of the evening went really well, Theo was a really down to earth kind of guy. He had his Slytherin moments though, which Alice didn't mind at all.
Draco could hear everything they said, the mindless flirting that went on between the two. He was boiling with anger; he couldn't take it that Theo was moving onto Alice with his charm. Theo was making the image that Draco was trying to only on the role to only let her have a night with him, and he was going show her who the sex god was…or was he? Truthfully, that was Theodore's thoughts and Theodore's actions. "He's playing with her."
Theodore Nott ruined his trust with Alice; he was going to have to work ten times as hard, convincing her that he was trustworthy. The only girl he played around with was Pansy Parkinson, but something was different with Alice. Alice had that charisma that he didn't see in other girls that threw themselves at Draco. His conscious screamed that he wanted a real relationship with Alice, but he knew that it would never be. That scream was only a whisper compared to the scream his sex driven body was giving out, he hadn't had a girl in months. He hadn't touched the food that Alice brought him. He couldn't stop thinking about what he should do. 'I won't hurt her,' his mind cleared all the rest of his thoughts about Alice besides that one. He heard a loud moaning sound coming from the living room and decided that was that.
He slung open the door and saw Alice and Theo kissing, "Get out Nott!" Draco shouted. Theo looked up and smirked, "Don't think I can do that Malfoy, unless Alice wants me to go, other wise I like it here." Draco gave him a glare and snarled, "I want you out, that should be valid enough to get you ass out of the room."
Alice looked uncomfortable, "Theo, it's getting late anyways. It's almost past hours, you should go." Theo's dimly smiled at Alice and kissed her again slipping his tongue in her mouth. Draco seethed with anger; Theo was kissing his eyes open looking at Draco with a pretty cocky expression. "I'll go, I'll see you around Malfoy," he audaciously said. Theo left the room leaving an odd silence between Draco and Alice.
"I don't want him in here ever again," Draco pronounced clearly he didn't want to give her the real reason.
Alice crossed her arms, "You have no say in what I do Draco."
"Fine then, I'll throw him out the next time," Draco hissed.
"You will not," Alice shouted, "I'm not yours, you don't own me! All you were doing is playing around with me!"
"I know you aren't mine, why do you think I was playing you? Why would I say all those things?" Draco's voice was lowering to a talking volume.
"So you would achieve what you first wanted, for me to be under you!" Alice yelled still keeping the volume she started with.
The portraits whispered to each other, as there was a silence between Alice and Draco. Draco sat down on the couch, his bare skin touching the cool leather. Again he was only wearing his boxers. Thankfully, Alice was too angry to see the death eater mark on his arm. "I wanted you, I'll admit that. I wanted you like you couldn't imagine, but not for one night. I didn't want to hurt you Alice. It's just… it's… too complex," he sighed putting his arm on the back of the couch.
Alice stood up and was steaming, "Oh so you just wanted to fuck me every night for enjoyment. I see how this is." Draco shook his head no, running his hands through his hair he put his head in his hands. Alice eyes widened, there on his forearm was the death eater mark, it looked alive… the skull… the snake… it was surreal.
"No, I wanted an actually relationship. Don't you realize that I could ne-" He started but was interrupted with a hiss. "You're a death eater…" Alice hissed backing up pulling out her wand. Draco looked up and then down at his arm, he looked baffled and a little confused, "Why do you sound upset?"
"You're a traitor to the wizarding world," she hissed motioning him to stand up, "As apart of the ministry I should send you straight into Azkaban. Get dressed; I'm taking you to Dumbledore." She said and followed him into his room, he pulled on his clothes he didn't look at all nervous, he looked calm and collected.
"Your father was one of the members of Wizengamot?-am I correct?" he said making small talk as they walked into the living room. He was trying to make time to find his wand in his clothes. Alice frowned, "Yes he was…hurry up." Draco felt his fingers touch his wand and he took it out. "I'm sorry Alice," was all he said and pulled out his wand quickly saying, "Stupefy!"
"You're going to regret that you did that," the young Severus said in one of the portraits. Draco looked at Alice, he ran his fingers through her hair he looked at the portrait and proclaimed that he knew what he was doing. The young Severus spoke up again with concern, "I did the exact same thing and it came back and ruined our future relationship." Draco ignored the last thing the synthetic Severus Snape said.
He picked up Alice and put her on his bed, he went through his trunk pulling out a bottle of forgetfulness charm, 'I knew this was going to happen, I'm just glad I made it before I came here.' Draco measured how much it would take her to forget about his Death Eater mark, he opened her mouth and put the droplet into her mouth. He undid the stunning spell and she looked at him puzzlingly, "What happened? All I remember is going to the kitchens and never coming back."
Draco touched her arm, and trying to muster up something in the nicest voice he could find, "You were stunned and hit your head. You were knocked out." Alice nodded, "By whom?"
"Theodore Nott," he said kissing her softly on the head.
"Don't kiss me Draco," she said getting up, "Just because I accepted your apology doesn't mean anything. I still think you're a dumb blonde brute." She went into the bathroom and looked at her hair. She felt anger boil up in her system; she couldn't tell where it was coming from. She suddenly spontaneously did a growing spell on her hair; it went down the middle of her back with long layers. She smiled satisfied; she saw herself in her mother…this feeling comforted her.
'I'm going to have to get back at this Theodore Nott,' Alice thought as she got ready for bed.
A/N: Well that was a very interesting chapter. Full of irony, and anguish. I don't know where this chapter came from… it emerged from no where. Draco sounds like a jerk doesn't he? Tell me what you think… and if you say "Draco sounds like a total jerk!" My mission is accomplished. I had to keep some of his Malfoy "charm." If you wanted to know, Theodore Nott is son of one of the Death Eaters. I wanted to make him extra disgustingly heartless. Poor Alice… she seems so lost and confused… just wait till the next chapter. –B.V
