Chapter 7 – rendezvous

She saw Draco's wand on the desk. She had a plan "professor, you are aware that in a life of death situation you're not exactly thinking about etiquette?" "how dare you miss Evans 5 points from Gryffindor" "but its true miss" Harry said " when someone's trying to kill you the fight or flight instincts kick in, etiquette doesn't some into it. Personally I fight" "me too" Camilla said pushing it "and when have you been in a fight or flight situation miss Evans?" Professor Murdoch said getting angry (knowing full well when she was) "when three death eaters tried to rape me." She said coldly " when your being attacked you kick, you bite, you scratch , you throw hexes, curses and stunners and then when your still out numbered 3 to 1 you have no choice to let go of your fear, build up your rage and use unforgivables . That's how it goes when you're being attacked. There's no such thing as etiquette in battle. Its total bullshit." "GET OUT! "She screamed "you and Mr Malfoy both have detention now GET OUT" she was so angry she was shaking (she obviously didn't like being contradicted) . Camilla coolly got up (picked up Draco's wand) and left. Leaving a stunned room behind her. She went strait up to the Gryffindor tower "Quidditch" then she went strait to the boys dorm. There she got out the marauders map and left a note for Harry that said:

Harry,

I have borrowed the marauders map. I need to be alone. Please don't try and find me. I will know.

Camellia.

"I solemnly swear that I am up to no good" she said with her wand on the map (Harry had shown it to her on the holidays) and looked for draco. She found him in the kitchens. So that's where she went. News of Camellia's argument with professor Murdoch spread quickly (thanks to the portraits) he was at the Slytherin portrait when he found out ( a portrait of Salazar Slytherin) (the portrait had told him) oh god he thought and went to drown his sorrows on butterbeer and chocolate ice-cream in the kitchens. He tickled the pear and went in why, why her he knew why , because she was young and pretty but that didn't stop him from hurting for her. Why couldn't if be someone else. Why did she have to suffer all I want is to take her pain away. And the fact that he felt this way wasn't helping either. "cans I be helping you sir?" a house elf said "umm yah a butterbeer and a big bowl of chocolate fudge ice-cream please" did I just say please to a house elf? I must be going soft. What he asked for appeared in front of him and he started to eat. Her heard the pear laugh and when he looked up and his hart sank and leapt ant the same time( its actually is a rather peculiar feeling) she gave him a weak smile and said "drowning your sorrows in ice-cream and butterbeer I see. Mind if I join you?" "Not at all" he mumbled into his spoon. Another lot of ice-cream and butterbeer appeared. She sat down and began to eat. "I heard what happened." Draco said "I'm sorry." "its not your fault. You weren't one of the death eaters that attacked me." "are you ok?" he said concerned. She saw the concern in his steel grey eyes and knew he wouldn't reject her. "not really that argument brought up memories that I'd rather forget" he saw the tears lurking behind her eyes and just wanted to comfort her. In a jerky stop-start motion he put a arm around her shoulder to show that he was there for her, she tensed and then relaxed into his embrace. There she stayed until the tears dried up.
