The
two weeks I was spending away from Draco were starting to feel like
two years. "Don't think about him, you'll make yourself lovesick
again." Melinda advised as we lay on my bed. I nodded. "So
what happened with you and Ron?" "I chucked him coz it was
soooo obvious that he fancied Hermione... and I think I'm starting to
like Harry..." I rolled my eyes. "He's a bit of a
minger..." "Oh yea, and Malfoys a total sex symbol!"
"He is!" I protested. "And I mean, Ron's ginger!"
"Ok so you beat me on that one." "He's sooo gorgeous."
I sighed. Melinda rolled her eyes at me before we started laughing.
"When was the last time we were this close?" Mel asked.
"Years." I replied. "I'd like to keep it this way."
"Yea, me too." I smiled.
The day of the funeral came. I
was relieved as I knew I'd soon be back with Draco. Mom tried her
best not to cry. I couldn't though, I knew that no one had ever met
the real Clarissa and that if they had that no one would be standing
here today.
I spoke to Mom afterwards about moving out. She simple
replied "If it will help." tearfully and handed me the
money. I was a very happy bunny .
I returned to Hogwarts feeling
fantastic. "Hey!" Draco grinned as I sat next to him. "Hi!"
I grinned back throwing my arms around him. "How was-"
"Grim, but guess what!" "What?" "I got my
own place!" I grinned. "So I'll definately be saved?"
"Yes." I grinned. He grinned back at me.
We had
Transfiguration first lesson. Professor MacGonagall wasn't there so
we had some batty old woman instead.
