Nobody's fool
The three of us left the Gryffindor common room about half an hour later. I told Hermione and Ron to go to the Great Hall while I went to the Hospital wing to have my black eye healed.
"We'll go with you mate." Ron said and I opened my mouth to tell them otherwise.
"We're gonna go with you Harry no matter what you say so we might as well get going." Hermione said and started to make her way to the hospital wing to prove her point.
So I shrugged my shoulders and the three of us made our way to the hospital wing. Madam Pomfrey healed my eye easily and within seconds but all the while tutting me about fighting, I got out of there as quickly as I could while Ron laughed at me. There was about an hour an half left of breakfast before our first class started so we quickly made our way to the Great Hall.
But before I we even stepped foot into the Great Hall someone grabbed my arm and turned me around. I stared into gleaming blue eyes. It was Blaise, healed nose and everything.
"What do you want now?" I tugged my arm out of his hold. The slytherin was already on my nerves so why didn't he just get the hint... maybe me breaking his nose wasn't a big enough hint.
"I just want a word." He said simply his eyes sliding over to Ron and Hermione who stared right back at Blaise.
"And here I thought I made it clear to you last night that I don't want to speak to you."
"Just hear me out."
"No." I turned around and with both Hermione and Ron by my side we entered the Great Hall, leaving a glaring slytherin behind.
As we sat down Seamus looked up at us with a smile. "So is the Gryffindor Trio back on good terms?" He asked brightly as we all piled our plates with eggs, bacon and toast.
"What are you talking about Seamus we weren't fighting?" Ron said clamping a hand on my shoulder and smiling brightly.
"Oh really then why didn't you sit together last night?" Dean asked joining in the conversation.
I answered this time. "Ron and Hermione needed some time alone to talk." I winked at the both of them making them blush.
"Talk?"
"Yes you know sometimes people use it to communicate." Hermione said giving me the eye. I smiled back at her before taking a forkful of eggs in my mouth.
"About what?" He pressed on. Seamus has always been like the boy-version of Lavender Brown, always wanted to know what's going with everyone. I rolled my eyes and kept on eating.
"Stuff. Look we're going to be late to Potions and you know how Snape loves to take points away from Gryffindors, so come on." Hermione said already standing up grabbing her bag.
I took one more bite of my eggs and toast and followed them out, all of the Gryffindor 6th years around us bemoaning the upcoming hour an half of potions with Snape and the Slytherins.
"Longbottom! Did the instructions not tell you to stir to the right?"
"Y-yes sir." Neville said in a trembling voice and I felt a lot of pity for the boy for Snape had been in a particularly bad mood all morning. Personally I think it might have to do with the fact that I fought with one of his students, he had been glaring at me all morning.
"Potter!" Speaking of the devil.
I turned to my professor who was standing right in front of me glaring. Vaguely I wondered what would happened if he smiled, would it hurt his face?
"Yes sir?"
"What are you doing?" He asked quietly.
It took everything I had not to look at him like he was stupid. Carefully I kept my voice neutral. "I'm adding asphodel to the potion sir."
"Did you sir three times counterclockwise?"
"Yes." I knew he was trying to get something over me just to take points away but I wouldn't give him the satisfaction, not if I could help it.
"5 points from Gryffindor for disrespecting a teacher." Snape snapped at me, making me almost drop the asphodel into the potion.
"But sir I was merely answering your question." I said tightly. Out of the corner of my eye I saw Ron giving me a look that clearly read 'Be quiet before you make it worst.'
"Do you want to make it ten Mr. Potter?" The slimly, greasy potion's master smirked at me.
"No Professor." I backed down if only because I already had detention with him for the next two weeks and didn't want to risk anymore points.
"Good now get back to work you have ten minutes left. The rest of you should all be finishing soon."
"Grease ball." I muttered and Ron hid his laughter by ducking his head.
Ten minutes later the bell rang and all of us were putting our stuff away and making a beeline to the door, Gryffindors and Slytherins had one more class together, Care of Magical Creatures. Then lunch and Hermione would go to Ancient Runes while Ron and me went to Divinations.
But right now I was walking with Ron and Hermione passing the charms corridor when for the second time that morning Blaise pulled on my arm to make me face him. I already had a bad morning with Potions does he want to make it worst?
"Can we talk?" There was a cold glint in his eyes that bothered me.
"God you're thick." I muttered before turning to my friends. "Can you tell Hagrid I'll be a little late?"
"Harry-" Ron started but Hermione pulled on his arm forcing him to walk.
"Sure Harry but hurry up." I nodded to them and turned back to Blaise whose cold glint turned to one of triumph. I looked beyond him and I meet the eyes of Draco who was staring at the both of us with an unreadable expression.
I followed him with my eyes as he passed us and when he was out of range I turned to Blaise who was glaring, apparently he had followed Draco as well.
"What?" I asked him irritated.
"I just wanted to know how do you think Pansy is going to act if she heard that Malfoy is cheating on her with you?"
"You wouldn't dare." I hissed; Blaise just smiled. "Well even if you did tell like she's going to believe you. Who would believe you, Zabini this might come to you as news but enemies don't usually end up in bed together." I gave him a tight smile and started to walk away.
Before I could even react Blaise slammed me into the wall behind me, and pressed his body against mine so that I was held in place. He leaned in forcing me into a brutal kiss, his tongue thrusting into my mouth. I struggled against him, finally got my arm free and hit him hard across the face. He pulled back wincing and glaring, slapped me hard across the face.
"I will get what I want from you Potter, either willingly or by force. It would do you so much good if you just went along willingly." Blaise was pinning my shoulders to the wall with a great force of his hands.
"Are you threatening to rape me?" I was not about to show weakness in front of him, though I will say I was a bit scared any person in the right mind would be.
"If I have to I will." Again he forced his disgusting mouth on mine and I kneed him hard in the stomach.
I got out his hold quickly and let the anger I felt out on him; I punched him hard in the same spot where I kneed him and watched as doubled over in pain.
"If you ever, ever threaten me again I swear I'll break more then just your nose." I pushed him down, grabbed my bag and quickly made my way outside the castle. I was going to make my way to Hagrid's hut where we usually have our classes but I spotted my class out by the lake.
Slowing down my pace I touched my cheek and was reminded of the one time when Draco lost control of his anger and hit me, but Blaise hit much harder and I knew that there was a mark. But I couldn't skip the class, Hermione and Ron would worry and then tell the headmaster, that would bring questions of what Blaise and me were talking about and I didn't want anyone finding out what was happening. So I would keep quiet and try to hide the mark and stop the small tremors that had my hands shaking.
Finally I made it to lake and sat at the very back where I saw everyone's back, now I could see what everyone was looking at, merpeople a male and female.
"Hello Harry." Hagrid stop his lecture to say hello to me and the slytherins and gryffindors all looked back to look at me. I nodded quickly and put my head down on my raise knees.
Ron caught my eye and made a gesture to come over and sit by them, but I shook my head and mouth 'I'm ok.' He gave me a questioning look before turning back to the lesson I sighed and re-rested my head on my knees.
"What were you two talking about?" I turned my head to the left and noticed for the first time that I was sitting by Draco who instead of being surrounded by his usual posse of slytherins, was sitting alone and at the moment looking at me.
"Nothing." I turned back to listening to Hagrid.
"Then why do you look so pale and you're mad I can tell."
"Good for you now leave me alone." I snapped at him.
"Not till you tell what you two talked about."
"I do not have to answer to you." I carefully kept my voice down; it really wouldn't do good to attract attention.
Astonishingly he didn't answer right away but instead was staring at my face, more correctly my cheek. I had made the mistake of lifting my face to turn to him fully.
"Did Zabini do that to you?" He whispered dangerously.
I looked away and refused to speak, anyways I already took care of Zabini back in the corridor, and I don't need Draco to act like a hero that needed to come to my rescue. I could take care of myself damn it! But apparently the slytherin didn't see it that way and got up angrily making the whole class look at him as he stormed away ignoring Hagrid or his friends calling him. I very well couldn't go after him or ask him to leave it alone because of our stupid fronts that we had to keep up in front of the school. But now I was worried that Draco would do something stupid that would get him in trouble or make Blaise talk.
I gave a frustrated sigh and turn back to the class knowing that Ron and Hermione were dying to question me about what was going.
"Ron I gotta go to detention!" I flew down and quickly changed in the locker rooms before making my way to the dungeons. We had quidditch practice all week but I had to leave early for the detentions I had for the next two weeks.
As soon as COMC was over Hermione and Ron had dragged me to the library and questioned me endlessly. Ron was outraged that Blaise had hit me and it took both Hermione and me to stop him from going into the Great Hall or where ever the slytherin boy was and beating the tar out of him. Hermione on the other thought I should go to Dumbledore and tell him of what Blaise had done but I told them to forget it that I had already gotten back at him and we shouldn't waste our time on him, I left out the part of when Blaise kissed me and threaten to rape me. But I did tell them why Draco left so angry; I was surprised when both of them stared at me in shock.
"What?" I asked them when they hadn't said anything for a minute.
"Well it's just so weird that Malfoy was worried." Hermione said slowly.
"I told you guys that he was different."
"Yes, but still it's-" Hermione started to say and Ron cut her off.
"Bloody unbelievable!" He exclaimed.
After that we had to go to class and I didn't see either Draco or Blaise for the rest of the day, we had no more classes with slytherins and they weren't in the Great Hall for dinner. As I walked into Snape's classroom I thought about them but stopped dead when I saw Draco sitting where he usually sat in Potions, arms folded across his chest and a glare on his face. He turned around when he had heard the door opening.
"What are you doing here?" I asked him sitting in the seat next to him.
"Detention." Draco said simply before catching my lips in a sweet kiss.
"Why are you in detention?" I asked when we pulled away.
"Fighting - no one hurts what's mine." He said possessively running his hand gently down my face.
A few months ago I would have been mad when he said that and would have probably corrected the slytherin but now I found it oddly enduring. But before we could say anything more, Snape's office door banged open and the ever-dramatic Snape walked in glaring at the both of us.
"Potter you will be cleaning the cauldrons; Malfoy you will be re-labeling all the potions in the storage room and then put them in alphabetical order, either of you fight, even once I will have you in detention with me till the end of the year. Understood?"
We both nodded. "Good now get to work." He sat down at his desk and started to grade papers.
Draco moved to the storage room and I went into the back to start a long night of cleaning cauldrons. How fun...
