Loser Girl
Chapter 3- The Note
I walked out onto the grounds. I stood in front of the lake. "I remember the look in your eyes, when I told you that this was goodbye…" I let a tear fall down my cheek. It brought back memories… this whole song did. "Lesbian chick?" I looked around. Draco was standing next to me. "Oh hey" I tried to smile. Ocean Avenue ended and Only One started playing. "What you listening to?" He asked. "Yellowcard" I sighed. "Is that Only One?" He asked moving closer to me. "Yea." "Ooooh!" He grinned. I gave him a headphone. "This song is class." He grinned. "Yea" I smiled. "Here I go! Scream my lungs out and try to get to you! You are my only one!" I sighed heavily and tried not to cry. "What's wrong with you anyway?" He asked. "Oh nothing… just thinking too much." I felt my note book being taken from my grip. Draco was casually flicking through the pages. Hypnotize by the White Stripes came on. I giggled. "What?" "The White Stripes make me wanna do like 70's style dancing" I giggled. "Go on then" He smirked. I started to do a little 70's dance before collapsing into giggles. "Did you write that?" Draco asked. I looked at my notebook. He was pointing at a song I'd written. "Eh, yea… kinda crap I know" I smiled. "No it's cool, I like it." He smiled. I blushed. "Err, thanks." "You're welcome" He replied. "Ooooh!" He grinned again. "What?" He'd stumbled upon all my drawings. "Wooow… they're pretty…" He smiled. I blushed. "Thanks" "You're welcome again…" He smirked. "Well anyway… I should probably go, I just thought I'd come talk to you coz you looked upset and me being so kind and all…" "Get outta here." I laughed. He grinned at me and walked back up to the castle. "Is it safe to say? (c'mon c'mon) Was it right to leave? (c'mon c'mon)" I coulda danced all the way back to the castle.
Happiness is like a drug… I came down hard and fast. I sat on my bed singing softly to myself. "While she hides the scars she's making underneath her pretty clothes she sings 'hey baby can you bleed like me?'" I stared up at the ceiling. I felt around for my notebook. "Shit!" I cried sitting up. "What is it?" Serena asked. "I've lost my notebook!" I cried searching for it frantically. "When was the last time you saw it." "Draco's got it…" I whispered. "Say what now?" She asked. "Ugh… nevermind." I sighed. "You can borrow mine if you want." She suggested. "Nah don't matter, it's gone now…"
I sat down for Divination. "Oh how I love this lesson." I joked. I put my headphones in my ears as usual and got myself comfy so that I could do some major daydreaming. "Hole!" I shouted as they came onto my mp3 player. "Why yes! That's right Maxine! 10 points for Slytherin." "Yea! … What did I do?" I whispered to Serena. "God knows, I think you just managed to predict something" She laughed. "Aaah, my first and last prediction" I giggled before placing my headphones back in my ears. "There playing. Playing your sooooong" I sang quietly, head in the clouds. "Maxie… are you gonna tell me what yummy boys the future holds for me or what!" Alyssa grinned. "Divination… not my style." I replied as always. "I'll second you to that." I heard from behind me. I turned around Draco was sat not doing much work. I smiled. "Here" He handed me my notebook. "Ooooh! Thanks!" I grinned. "No problem" He smiled. "Y'know me so kind and considerate…" "Yes dear, if you say so" I smiled. "I came and cheered you up with my greatness didn't I?" He smirked. "I never said that" I grinned.
At lunch I walked along now very happy to have been reunited with my notebook. I sat down in the grounds with Alyssa, Hannah and Serena. I opened up my notebook flicking through trying to find a clean page. A page near the back caught my eye. I read the writing slowly and carefully. I blinked several times. "No way…" I whispered. "What?" "Oh erm… don't matter" I replied. I read it through at least a hundred times to ensure I was indeed seeing what I was seeing. Finally I read out in my head "Hey lesbian chick, you got some cool stuff in here. I wanna talk some more, meet me at the lake again at about half 7. I know what you're thinking, no I'm not having you on, ok? You better be there. xXx" I snapped the book shut and fell back on the grass heart racing. 'He's having me on… I know it… or is he… I don't know! Why would he be interested in a loser in me anyway!" I decided I'd go anyway.
