"Why do you do it?" Serena sighed. We were sat out on the grounds, Hannah and Alyssa were over trying to flirt with Potter and that lot. "What?" "Why do you shut yourself off from everyone?" She asked. "I dunno… just after all the stuff with… Mark…" I sighed. "He just… we got so close and then he just broke my heart like that." Serena rubbed my back softly. "Yea… well unfortunately life is full of heartbreak… you can't let it ruin your life." Serena reasoned. "I fear it already has… I mean Mark dumps me and then my heart gets even more brokeded coz I like Draco and he" I cried before realizing that I'd just proclaimed my secrets to the world. "… Ooops…" Alyssa and Hannah sat down in front of me. "I knew it!" Alyssa grinned. "Oh god!" I sighed pulling at my hair in frustration. "What's happened?" "The other night… in detention… I knocked some glasses over and stuff… and they smashed and he cut his hand on the glass…" "Woop, romantic" Hannah joked. "Wait, I'm not finished yet" I giggled. "Well… I was there cleaning him up and he said "maybe it was a trick to make you hold my hand" So I just got on with what I was doing… and when we were walking back he held my hand all the way back to the common room, so now I'm really confused." I sighed. "I told you! He luuurves yooou!" Alyssa grinned. "I doubt it…" I sighed. "Why don't you just get him in a headlock and shout, "What do you want with me ye scurrvycurr!"" Hannah joked. I smiled weakly before looking across the grounds. Draco was sat with his mates and some random girls. "I'm just another one of them aren't I?" I asked. "Maybe." "Yes." I replied standing up and walking back to the castle.

"Maxie?" I turned around. Draco was stood, hands in his pockets, looking at me. I panicked and took Hannah's advice grabbing him and pulling him into a headlock. "WHAT DO YE WANT WITH ME YE SCURVYCURR!" I growled. "Ok, chill!" Draco choked. "Sorry!" I gasped jumping back. "Just something… Hannah… and…" I spluttered. "Err… ok…" I blushed and stared at my feet. "Sorry if I like freaked you out." "Oh don't worry…" I smiled. "I mean like at detention the other day… You can tell me to piss off if you want." He mumbled. "What? Oh… erm… yea… about that… well as I already stated, what do ye want with me, ye scurvycurr?" I smiled nervously. He shrugged. I bit my lip and turned around. "You'd make a sexy pirate." He commented. "I am a pirate." I smirked. "Well then I guess you're just always sexy" He replied. I looked back at him and smiled before continuing on my way.

I sat down for Charms angrily fiddling about with my quill. "Y'know that Michelle Roberts is a right fucking bitch, I was walking through the corridor and grr! I … what?" I asked Alyssa who was smiling and pointing. I turned around to see Draco had sat next to me. "Oh! Hey!" I grinned waving manically before shoving my hand on the desk realizing that I looked like a retard. "Hi" He smirked. I blushed and turned to Alyssa who was giggling away. "So pirate girl." He began. "Do you have a new nickname for me every week?" I laughed. "No it's just as you're not a lesbian, lesbian chick is no longer appropriate." "Aww don't tell everyone I'm not a lesbian!" I joked. He smirked at me. "Anyway after our little… ahem… encounter in the corridor I thought you should be pirate girl" He continued. "Yargh, ye scurvycurr" I grinned. He laughed at me and Alyssa nudged me in the side. I turned around. "What happened in the corridor?" She asked. "I'll tell you later." I giggled.

I sat gazing at the sky lost in my thoughts. Draco was being so nice to me… it was odd that he'd even waste his time on someone like me, let alone be nice… and what about all that: You'd make a sexy pirate… I guess you're just always sexy… stuff! Surely he didn't mean it… the last time I'd heard that was when Alyssa got drunk that one time! I frowned and decided to calm myself down by watching the cloud shapes in the sky… but as usual everything just reminded me of Draco. The sky was a dull grey, it was hardly soothing. I closed my eyes and felt something settle down beside me. I opened an eye suspiciously. Draco was staring at me. "What…" I began. "Trying to sunbathe in this weather?" He smirked. "Haha" I replied sarcastically. "What are you doing?" "Got sick of Pansy" he smirked. "She's been like flirting non stop with me." "Why?" "Coz she thinks I'm sexy of course" He smirked. I rolled my eyes and lay back down to feel Draco's hands dragging my shoulders onto his lap. He brushed my hair out of my face and stared down at me. "Well hello there" I smirked. "Heyooo" He grinned. I smiled and stared out into the distance. "You're so mysterious…" Draco almost sighed. "Huh?" I said more at the almost sighing-ness than the actual comment. "Well it's like… You're always off in your own little world." He smiled. "Oh…" I replied softly. "It's sexy" He smirked. I raised an eyebrow at him before giggling quietly. He smiled at me. I sat up and stared at my hands. I'd forgotten how to react to these kinds of situations. He moved closer to me. I turned my head looking at him. He rested his hands gently on my shoulders and moved forward. I was unsure of what to do… in fact I didn't even know what was happening until his lips touched mine. 'No way… this cannot be happening!' I closed my eyes and blocked out the world as I kissed back, unsure. I opened my mouth some more as his tongue brushed against mine. I was amazed that I could actually remember how to kiss. I broke away and looked at him unsure. "Thanks" he smirked before getting up and walking away. Thanks! Thanks! What the hell is that meant to mean!
