The Trouble With Draco Malfoy

Chapter Eight: I'll Get Even With You

I knew that if Draco found out about our plan against him, he would kill me. Well, okay, maybe I am being a bit melodramatic, but he would do something serious against me. He might recommend to his father, into whose hands my future will very soon belong, that I should be transferred to another school of witchcraft and then he would set everyone against me. He knows that there is no way he can set Mandi and Becca against me, so he would have to have me transferred.

Becca came up with this stupid plan that I should try to make Draco jealous by doing a lot with Markus Colby. The only problem is that if this plan backfires, there will be hell to pay. And if Draco asks what in the hell I am doing, I would answer honestly. God my life is so screwed up.

I told Becca as much and she says that as long as I don't mention her as the person who came up with the "spectacular plan" that I could screw up this idea. I don't get it, so I decided to go back to bed.

"Good-night girls. I am going to bed. I pray to whatever god there might be, that Draco is back in his bed and out of mine." I told them.

"Yeah, well if you need anything, don't be afraid to call. Good-night, Mol." Mandi said.

"Yeah, and if he gives you anymore trouble, I will kill him for you." Becca said with a quick hug. "Don't let him get you like that, Mollie. Oh, and I will write your letters to your parents for you if you want. I mean, you aren't disobeying Draco then, you are simply modifying the rule to suit your needs best. That is something that I can promise Draco would do in the same case, anyway. Sleep well."

"Yeah, I will talk with you tomorrow about my first letter home to my parents. Good-night." I called while walking out of the room.

I walked as calmly as possible back to Draco and my living room. Maybe it would be better if I slept on a couch in the common room. No, no that wouldn't be a good idea. If Draco were to find out that I avoided him and slept on the couch, thing will be worse. I will just be a good girl and go to bed. God, I need to get a grip on myself.

As soon as I walked into the living room that I shared with Draco, I saw the blond hair. Then I saw the gray eyes as he turned around to look at me. After that, I saw the sneer, the sneer that was directed towards me.

"Mollie, my love, come sit down. How lovely of you to decide to come back to your living quarters tonight. Of course, your running out like that can't go un-punished. I forbid you to leave our living quarters for a week. The only time you are allowed to leave will be to attend classes and meals. Well, I am tired right now so I will go to bed. Good-night, little witch of trouble. Oh, and I am sure that you will be receiving a letter from your parents tomorrow, so I just want to remind you that you are not allowed to write back. I am also sure that you will receive a letter from my father or mother and you are expected to write back to them immediately. Good night, my love."

"Yes, Draco. Good night."

I walked to my bedroom, walking with Draco until he reached his door and entered. I proceeded to walk the remaining twenty steps by myself.

When I got to my room, I didn't even bother to change into a nightgown. I collapsed on my bed and gave way to the tears. I cried and cried until I was so exhausted that I finally fell asleep.

My last thought before I fell asleep was thank god Draco doesn't know about the plan.
