Draco's POV:
I walked away from Maxie. 'What the hell did I just do that for! It'll have totally scared her off!' I thought angrily. I stood at the doors and cast one last glance back at Maxie. I opened the doors and made my way back to the common room. I bumped into someone on my way. "Oi watch where you're going" I scowled. "Sorry… Oh! Draco!" It was Maxie's friend Alyssa. Oh great, now her best friends gonna come onto me. "Have you seen Max?" She asked. I nodded, "She's out there I think" I told her before hurrying away.
"Heya" Pansy smiled twiddling her hair. "Yea." I replied sitting down and staring at the wall. "What's wrong?" She pouted sitting next to me. "Whatever, just leave me alone…" She scowled and left. "Where's Maxie?" I turned around and saw her redheaded friend stood behind me. "How should I know!" I scowled leaving for someplace else.
I entered the Defense against the Dark Arts class. I scanned the room and saw Maxie sat next to her pretty friend and her redheaded friend. Alyssa (the cough whore cough) was flirting with Potter. I turned around. "Hey will you pair up with me?" Alice asked. "No, he's gonna pair up with me." Pansy scowled. I turned around and saw Maxie wandering across the room. Perfect.
End of Draco's POV
Hannah sat down for Defense against the Dark Arts. "I'm gonna do it!" She cried. "I'm gonna pair up with Paul" She sighed. "You do that honey" I replied in a world of my own. "Alyssa's paired up with Harry… Damn she's good." Serena stated. I nodded. Hannah ran off to find Paul. "Will you pair up with me?" "Err…" I looked over at Serena who was contemplating her answer. A pretty goth guy was stood in front of her expectantly. I nodded at her to say yes. She smiled and agreed to be his partner. I wondered to the other side of the class. "I wanna be his partner!" "Well tough! He wants to be with me anyway." "Maxie!" I turned around. Draco grabbed my arm and hurried me over to the front of the class. I looked back to see Pansy arguing with some other girl. They shot me dirty looks before having to pair up with each other. "Sorry" I mumbled. "What for?" "For being a loser and having no one to pair up with" Draco gave me a funny look. "Think of it from my point of view, you're a lifesaver." He smirked. "Would you wanna be paired up with either of them two?" "Given the choice of me or one of those two, yes" I smiled. He smirked at me and rested his hand on my shoulder watching our teacher. I shot a glance at Draco. 'Don't stare at him! It's freaky and loserish!' I tried to keep my eyes on the floor after that one glance. "Ok… Hello… you there?" "Huh… Oh Yea!" I grinned blushing. Note to self, don't gawp at his sexiness, it counts as staring and it makes you come across as some kinda gormless retard.
"I'll see you guys later." I called to Alyssa, Hannah and Serena as I left for the grounds. I walked along looking at the floor. I felt myself collide with someone. "Watch it fucktard!" I growled. "That's not very nice." "Sorry!" I gasped as I realized it was Draco. "We need to talk" He said. "Oh that's never good…" I sighed. He grabbed my arm and pulled me away somewhere where no one else was around. "Ok I'm gonna level with you now, I like you, I like you a lot…" He said. I raised an eyebrow at him. "Seriously?" He nodded. "Well… I like you too… a lot… I'm not obsessed or anything but… yea…" I spluttered. He smirked at me. "Just thought I'd let you know" He told me before leaving me, wanting him more. Thanks for that love, I guess you really like me. I sighed and shuffled back up to the castle. 'Why does he have to be difficult, why can't he just be like normal guys and just go ahead and ask me out!' I thought to myself as I entered the common room. I sat down alone lost in a frustrated flurry of thoughts. "Hey" I looked up. A guy with pink and black spiked hair was stood in front of me. "Hey Chris" I sighed. "You ok?" I nodded. "Ok well… wanted to ask a question…" "Yea go ahead" "Will… you… go out with… me?" He asked shyly. I saw Draco entering the common room. I stared at him. He looked over my way and smirked. "Hello?" "Oh… what? Yea… yea I will" I smiled. "Oh… cool! Ok gotta go… see ya" He smiled kissing my cheek and leaving. I watched Draco flirting with some pretty brunette girl. "Blondes do it better." I muttered sulkily. "Talking to yourself again?" Alyssa grinned, sitting next to me. "Yes" I smiled. "Who was that?" I heard Draco ask. I looked up at him. "Who?" "The guy with the pink and black hair." "My boyfriend, who's she?" I asked pointing at the brunette girl on the other side of the room. "My girlfriend." Draco smirked. I returned the gesture before he walked away. "The sexual tension is astounding" Alyssa giggled. "Sexual tension? Me and him? Psssh!" "Oh so what you're over him now?" I nodded although deep inside I felt quite the opposite.
I closed my eyes as a tear slowly trickled down my face. I held my eyes closed, head bowed as I sat and waited. "Maxie." I wiped my tears away with my sleeve before turning around. "Are you ok?" Chris asked putting his arm around me. "I'm fine" I smiled. "Ok, good, where'd you wanna go?" He asked. I shrugged and held my hands out. "Take me anywhere" I smiled, wishing it was Draco standing before me rather than Chris. It was the start to a long evening. Long evenings. Y'know, when you're out somewhere or you have to do something and all you wanna do is get home so you can cry and cry… "Hey pirate girl" I turned around seeing Draco stood with his pretty brunette girl. "Hi" I replied forcing a smile upon my face. I walked away almost leaving Chris behind. 'When will this end?' I thought sighing. I stared out into the distance. "Nice, isn't it?" Chris asked. I nodded. "Y'know… I gotta get back… I got period pains and stuff…" I lied. "Ok hun" He smiled kissing me. I smiled and walked away. I hid away from him and stared up at the sky.
