"Oh,
poor Draco, you tried so hard to protect her and yet, you've brought
her straight to me" The figure pouted. "You won't hurt her,
I won't let you." Draco growled holding me close. "There's
no need, you know what to do." "No, I already told you no"
"Well I'm afraid..." A bookshelf hurled itself across the
classroom. Draco threw me out of the way. The figure emerged from the
shadows and tossed her brown wavey hair laughing maliciously.
"Clarissa" I gasped. "Yea, that's right, little
innocent Clarissa, taking orders from the Dark Lord, who knew!"
I stared at her and the fury and hate burning in her eyes. "But
why!" "Why! I wanted him, Drusilla! I loved Draco before
you even thought about whether or not you fancied him."
"Clarissa... I... you never said..." "Of course I
didn't I knew he liked you and I knew you'd fall for him too at some
point. I didn't say anything because I didn't want to embarrass
myself... But then... you knew didn't you, Draco?" I turned to
him. He was holding me tight, eyes fixed on Clarissa. "Yea, but
I love Drusilla." "Oh of course, everyone loves Drusilla. I
went out of my way for you, covering things up and lying to my
sister." "Yea well that all stopped after a couple of
weeks." "Maybe so..." She paused gazing at Draco. I
felt like punching her but I refrained. "Only I know you two for
the sleazy cheapskates you are... But I still tried to love you
Dru... but I couldn't not when you were with Draco... I still loved
him, even though I could see his flaws." I rolled my eyes at
her. "I told you how I felt and you threw it back in my face"
she cried. "No I just told you the truth." Draco scowled.
"After you'd used me." She said looking up at me slyly.
"You never were a good liar." "Hmph, Well I guess
you'd no all about being a good liar... Well I must get rid of you
now." She said coldly drawing her wand. 'Expelliarmus'
Draco called, Clarissa's wand went flying. "No I don't think
so." I said cornering her. "Aww you're a double act, how
cute." I pulled out my wand and pointed it at her as she backed
into a corner. "What you gonna do now! Kill me! You don't have
it in you." she sneered. "Don't I?" I replied showing
no emotion. I could see a flicker of fear crawl across Draco's face
from the corner of my eye. "You're fucking insane" I
remarked. "Why's that?" "You could have had it all,
but you chose to throw it all away." "Don't make me laugh."
She snorted. "No really, you're pretty, intelligent... why
this?" "Because love fucks us up." I shook my head.
"What about you Dru? What have you got now? Sally hates you,
you burnt your bridges with Mel a long time ago, I haven't got your
back anymore... What have you got to hang onto now?" "She's
got me" Draco retorted. "Aww, that's sweet... but I don't
believe in that flimsy false thing you call a relationship."
Draco pulled me out of the way.
Next thing I knew Clarissa had her
wand back and she was fighting with Draco. I got trapped under a
flying bookcase and was left to gawp at the commotion before me.
Draco was hit by a curse and was knocked flying thru the door.
"Draco!" I screamed trying desperatley to free myself as
Clarissa ran out of the room.
