Nina stood up and walked to the couch and plopped down. She wasn't sleepy yet. She wanted to watch a movie. She conjured up a television and searched for something to watch.
It was 2 a.m., and she was beginning to get sleepy. She turned off the T.V., and got up to go to her room. When she arrived at her room, she went to the bathroom to change into her pajamas.
She closed the bathroom door after she finished and went to the kitchen to go get a glass of milk. She would always drink a glass of milk right before going to bed. She took a glass out of the cabinet and took milk of of the fridge. She sat on one of the stools around the table and began to drink it. She was thinking about Blaise and how he was so charming.
'Wonder if hes got a girlfriend...', she thought. Her thoughts were interruppted by the opening of the common room door. She figured it was Draco Malfoy, her partner. Getting up so she could finally meet the infamous Draco Malfoy, she turned towards the door, expecting something or someone that she really didnt expect.
What she saw was something totally different of what she had in her mind. They had said that he would be arrogant, but this devishly handsome guy standing in the living room staring back at her, certainly did not seem that way. He spoke first.
"See something you like?", he said, smirking for all he was worth.
'Aha. Now thats what I expected. Okay, I'm not lost anymore.', Nina thought.
"Hmm. Not really.", she said, feigning a dull expression.
"Well, what I'm seeing isn't too bad.", another smirk, this time sexier.
"Yeah? Too bad you'll never have it.", she replied. It was she who smirked now.
Draco smirked back at her and nodded.
"I like you.", he said.
Nina just stared.
He took this time to walk over to her and extend his hand, a very unlike-Malfoy thing to do.
"Draco Malfoy.", he said, his smirk not too far behind.
She took hold of his hand.
"Nina Vandella.", she said, matching his smirk.
He stepped back and look at her.
"What are you doing up at this time?", he asked, curious.
Nina pointed to her glass of milk she had left on the table.
"Oh. Night snacker, are we?", he acknowledged.
She grinned.
"What about you? Why are you out so late?", she inquired, curiousity getting the best of her too.
"I'm Draco Malfoy.", he said arrogantly, and half-heartedly, "Its my duty to party all the time."
Nina gave him the expression of a Yeah-whatever.
He took that look and finally said, "Pansy and I were watching one of those muggle movies. Secret Window, is what it was."
She looked him in the eye. He wasn't kidding. She too watched muggle movies every now and then. She had also watched Secret Window a while ago.
"I've seen it. I like it. It's good, and Johnny Depp's in it so, its gotta be good.", Nina said.
"What is so special about that guy? Pansy kept gushing on and on about how sexy, hot and everything he was. Personally, I don't see what you girls see in him.", he stated.
"That because you're a guy. He is sexy, and he is hot. Most of it is because he doesn't even know it and doesn't really care. Makes him even sexier.", she said.
"Whatever. I do not want to discuss whether a guy is sexy with a girl.", he said, realizing that conversation was weird.
"Suit yourself. He is and you know it.", Nina replied. Smirking at him.
"So, anyway, we should be getting to sleep. I'm exhausted.", he said, yawning.
"Of course, Mr. Ego has got to get his beauty sleep!", she kidded.
"Haha. Very funny, Could say the same thing about you.", he replied.
"Whatever. I really am tired too, so lets just go to sleep.", Nina said.
"Okay, Ms. Bossy.", he said.
They walked up the stairs, and they said goodnight to each other and both parted ways to their rooms. Nina got into her bed, and just looked up and stared at the ceiling and sighed, all the while thinking of the great connections she had, had with Blaise and now Malfoy.
She wondered if maybe one day she would have to swallow her own words when she stated that Malfoy wouldn't have her...maybe he had a chance. Blaise was nice, adorable and easy to talk to, while Malfoy was charming, not afraid to speak his mind, you could discuss many things with him, you could throw nasty and sometimes sarcastic remarks at him and he'd throw some right back, and lets not forget how sexy he was
'Malfoy may not be such a prat afterall...', Nina thought, letting sleep and drowsiness take over her.
