Hey ya'll! Sorry the last chap took so long to post. I was really busy with school. Please review! Just so ya'll know, some of the reviews I have are sent from me only because my friend from Texas has a virus problem so she e-mails reviews to me and I post them for her.
Chapter Fourteen
Candie flew a little lower. It was hard to maneuver her broom; her eyes were full of tears. She came up to the mangled body. She took out her wand and yelled, "Immobilious!" The tree stood still under her immobilizing spell. She jump off her broom and ran towards the body.
"No, this can't happen." Candie panted. "No…" She leaned over and cried. "You haven't done anything wrong, you don't deserve this." Candie cried. There was a noise in front of her. She looked up, Snape was running towards her. "Sir I don't know what happened. He wasn't here before." She said as she went around to the other side of the body.
Snape looked at Candie, "You mean you didn't bring him here? He came by himself?"
"Yes sir, I…" Candie stopped when she heard something.
"Candie where are you?" It was coming from behind her. She turned around slowly. It was Draco; he was running towards her with his broom. She got up and hugged him. He nearly knocked her back on to the ground.
"You scared me. I landed at the lake and I couldn't find you...I flew around looking for you and came upon him." She pointed to the body lying behind her.
"You scared me just as much as I scared you. I found him here and went to find someone." Draco said. "Professor Snape, we will write a letter to his father, you can take him up to the hospital wing." Snape agreed to this and cast a floating spell on the body. "Will he be alright Professor?" He nodded to Draco and directed the body to the hospital wing and left Candie and Draco to the letter.
Dear Mr. Goyle,
We are sorry to say that Gregory has had an accident. He was hit by the Whomping Willow on the school grounds early this morning. He will be alright, we assure you. We will have him write to you when he has recovered.
Sincerely,
Draco Malfoy and Candie Melt
P.S. we had nothing to do with his accident, we found him and reported him to the head of the house.
They folded the letter and headed up to the owlry. The found Hunter and sent the owl to Mr. Goyle. They wondered how Gregory had gotten hit by the tree.
"He was awake when I left the common room. Maybe he followed us and got hit then." Draco suggested.
"Maybe he was coming back from somewhere. And saw us flying and wasn't paying attention to where he was going, and ran into the path of the tree." Candie also suggested.
Draco and Candie went back up to the common room. They crawled in bed for a few more hours to catch up on their sleep. Pansy woke Candie up after she had breakfast. She had brought breakfast for Candie (and Draco) and visited with her while she ate. Draco was awakened by Candie and was given the other plate of breakfast to eat. When they were both ready to go, they headed to the Headmasters office. They told him that their friends would be arriving soon. With a flick of his wand the extra dorm was put in the Slytherin common room. The two of them thanked him and left for the platform. On their way up to the platform they talked. They held hands and laughed about funny things that teachers had said to them or comments that they had gotten.
"The train comes into the platform at 3 o'clock. It's almost 2:30 now. What do you want to do?" Candie asked.
"Talk I guess or something else." Draco's eyes were glued to Candie. Candie blushed a bright pink, and giggled. They sat on a bench and…
The train came to the platform at exactly 3 o'clock. Draco was quite annoyed at the fact that they were interrupted. Luckily Gus hadn't seen them. Draco was a mess, his blonde hair was all over the place and his face has red, he had a smirk on his face that told Candie he wasn't finished. Candie sat up, her hair was out of its pony tail, and her blouse was unbuttoned showing a lot of her chest, she was hot from Draco kissing her so long. Candie got up and waved her wand over herself and Draco making them look presentable (again). She gave out hugs to Heather, Lindsay, Allyson, Miranda, and Gus. She gave a little kiss to Gus as they got into a carriage. Draco sat next to Candie, Gus sat on Candie's other side. The girls were talking away as Candie, Gus, and Draco sat quiet. Draco and Candie had there necklaces on. Draco wanted to finish what he had started on the platform. Candie wasn't so sure about it because Gus was there. They got back to the castle, Candie showed Allyson and Miranda to their dorm. Heather, Lindsay, and Gus knew where to go.
Professor Snape came into the common room looking for Candie and Draco. He said that they had to go to the hospital wing immediately. They did, they ran up all of the stairs and got their a few minutes earlier than Snape had suggested. They told Madam Pomfrey, the nurse, that Professor Snape had sent them. Madam Pomfrey showed them over to the bed where Goyle lays.
"He's getting better, a few broken ribs and a broken ankle. He was unconscious when he came in, and hasn't awakened yet. He will be out of here in three days. It was very fortunate of you two for finding him, if you hadn't, he might not have made it. The Whomping Willow never stops whomping until a spell is put on it. Miss. Melt here was lucky to have thought of the immobilizing spell." Candie blushed. She looked at Goyle's pale, cold face. She started to tear up, Draco kissed her forehead and they left.
They met Heather and the gang in the hall. "Hey guys, what are you still doing in the hall with all of you stuff?"
"The picture won't let us through, we don't know the password." Gus said irritated.
"I knew I forgot something. The password is "Malidous Trofodous". As soon as Candie had said this the portrait swung towards them. They filed into the common room, unpacked there things, and sat around the fire. Candie and Heather told Miranda, a spunky, athletic, loud girl, and Allyson, a nice, loud, energetic girl, all about Hogwarts. They told them some of the unusual things about Hogwarts. They told them about them being muggles and that if anyone were to call them a muggle; they shouldn't get upset about it.
Gus touched Candie's arm, she looked at him, and he jerked his head towards the door. Candie nodded and told them that Gus and she would be right back. They walked to the study hall and sat at one of the tables.
"What did you want to talk to me about?" Candie asked, "The letter you sent me said you wanted to talk to me."
"I wanted to ask if you would like to go out with me tomorrow, just you and me, alone." His eyes were big. How could Candie say no to those eyes?
"We are together and alone right now."
"I know, but can we really do anything here?" Gus still stared with hope.
"Gus, I can't go out with two guys at once. It's not right. I can go out with both of you together, but not separate. Do you understand?"
"Yes." Gus said with a small sniffle.
"Don't cry; I don't want to hurt your feelings."
"I just want to know if you would go out with me, if you didn't have two guys after you."
"I would, but I have two guys after me, and you can't break that up." Candie said firmly.
"Alright, well, I am going to go to bed now." Gus said. He came around the table and sat next to Candie. Gus leaned over and kissed her long. Candie knew that he loved her a lot, so she let him kiss her as long as he liked. A few minutes went by and she finally pulled away from him. Gus's hair was all messed up, along with hers. Her blouse was a little sideways, and the top buttons were undone, showing her upper chest. Candie gasped as she noticed how much she had loved that. She quickly buttoned and straightened her blouse. She waved her wand over her and Gus's hair to put it back in place.
"Thanks, I needed that from you." Gus said with a smirk. "Don't tell Draco."
"I won't, good-night Gus." Candie said as he left the empty study hall. She rubbed her necklace and thought, "Draco come to the study hall." A few minutes later, Draco was in the study hall sitting next to Candie. They talked for a little while, and then they were back at what they had been doing on the platform. Candie was getting a lot of this lately, first with Draco, then with Gus, and now with Draco again. She didn't think that kissing her two favorite guys would hurt, they both new the other loved her. After about half-an-hour, Draco stopped and looked into Candie's brilliant, blue-green eyes. Her blouse had come unbuttoned again, this time more than ever; she quickly started to button it again when Draco seized her hands. She looked at him with mysterious eyes; she stopped buttoning her blouse and just stared at him. He stared at her chest for a few minutes and decided that he had had enough. She buttoned her blouse and they headed back to the common room. She got ready for bed and got her list and quill out of her bag. The pulled the covers over her head and lit the end of her wand. She added:
10).can be mean to others10). Great kisser
11). He can be really cute at times
12). Great kisser
This made her feel good; they had finally had more than 2 really good things in common. She got to bed and didn't wake up until the next morning. She was happy she got to sleep in a little. She went down to the common room after getting dressed, she woke up her friends, and headed towards the guys dorms. She quietly opened the door and crept over to Draco's bedside. She kissed his warm cheek and whispered in his ear.
"Wake up. It's me, Candie." She said smoothly. He slowly opened his eyes; his beautiful blue eyes glistened sleepily. He smiled at her and kissed her back. Candie went over to Gus's bedside and whispered in his ear. He lies still, and then he quickly grabbed her and pulled her onto the bed. Candie let out a small gasp, she didn't expect this. Gus rolled over on top of her and put his hands and knees by her side. He looked into her ocean colored eyes, leaned over and…
"What do you think you are doing?" Draco said furiously.
"What does it look like? I am going to kiss my girlfriend." Gus said with a little too much pride.
Draco pulled out his wand, "Your girlfriend! She is clearly mine. Get off of her or…"
"Stop it, both of you!" Candie cried. She pushed her self onto her elbows, kissed Gus and pushed him off of her, and then she ran over to Draco and kissed him. She stopped at the door and looked at the two slightly confused boys.
"You two gits better solve this one out yourselves. I have had enough of this; I can't stand it any more." Candie was in tears, she ran out of the dorm. Draco and Gus could hear her slam the portrait hole.
"Look what you've done now." Draco scolded Gus.
"Look what I've done? What about you?" Gus said with a flicker of fear in his voice. He couldn't do magic, he knew perfectly well Draco could do anything to him.
"Right, okay, what exactly have I done?" Draco smirked. "Everything was fine before you came along."
"I should say the same for you. Before Candie came here, we were happily together."
"Has she made out with you?" Draco thought this would stab Gus's heart.
"Actually, she has, last night." Gus said. "What about yourself?"
"Twice, she has." Draco said as he strutted over to Gus. "Has she said that she loves you?"
"Yes, and I assume she has said that to you too. She's cheating on us."
"No she's not; she just doesn't know what to do. She told me, she can't decide." Draco confessed.
"Who's going to go and find her? Do you want to?"
"Neither of us is; she will come back when she wants, when she cools off a bit."
Candie had come to the library; she thought this would be a good place to hide. She walked along the rows of books; she came to the row with the horticulture books. She laughed to herself when she came upon Neville. He was sitting on the floor with at least ten books sprawled out around him. She came closer and sat down next to him. She looked at his face, it was in awe. Neville is fascinated with plants. He looked in her eyes; he blushed, and returned to his books.
"Hi Neville, what have you been up to?"
"Nothing really, shouldn't you be with Draco." Neville sounded angry. "I mean, you are his girlfriend."
"No I'm not, I don't have a boyfriend. Right now, I don't even want one. I don't need you bring it up either."
"Sorry, I didn't mean to… What's wrong?" Neville calked his head at Candie, "Are you crying?" Candie was crying, she had her head on his shoulder, and her arms were wrapped around him. He couldn't help but hug her back. He comforted her for a long while. Candie had stopped crying and Neville had put his books away. They walked around the school grounds for a long time. They talked about everything. It was nearly noon when Candie had noticed the time.
"Oh, no! I have to get back to the common room. I'm really sorry Neville." She gave him a hug and started off for the Slytherin common room.
"Candie, wait up!" Neville yelled after her. She turned around quickly. Neville came up to her, "Can I uh… kiss you good-bye?" Candie nodded. He gave her a soft kiss on the lips. He blushed and started to run away from her.
"Neville," She called.
"What?"
"That was the first time any one has ever asked me."
"Really? Draco has never asked?"
"I don't think so." Candie waved good-bye to Neville as he ran back to the castle. Candie turned around and headed towards the courtyard. She held her necklace in her fingers; she didn't notice that someone was trying to talk to her. It was Miranda, one of Candie's really good friends.
"Candie? Helllooo?" Miranda sang. She waved her hand in front of Candie's focused eyes. Candie jumped back startled.
"Oh, it's you, you scared me. How long have you been trying to get my attention?"
"Sorry…only for a few minutes. Where are you going? The common room is the other way."
"I am not exactly sure. I guess… I don't know?" Candie was confusing herself. "I just need time to think a few things threw. What's up with you?"
"I was wondering if we could go to Hogsmeade Village. The way Heather talks about it; sounds like fun."
"When do you want to go?"
"I could go and get Allyson, and then we could head down there, just the three of us." Miranda's brown eyes were excited. Candie agreed and they headed down to the common room to find Allyson.
"Where is everyone?" Candie asked aloud as they walked into a very empty common room.
"I don't know? They were all here when I left to come and find you."
"Let's check the dorms."
"Alright; I will look in our dorms, you can look in the guys' dorm." They searched the dorms but couldn't find anyone. Miranda and Candie were very suspicious.
"They wouldn't leave without us; would they?"
"No, they wouldn't. Why don't we send them an owl, maybe they will tell us where they are?"
"Send them an owl? How do you do that? Put it in a box with a postage stamp on it?"
"No!" Candie laughed. "To send someone an owl is to send them a letter. We use owls instead of postmen."
"Oh, that's kind of…weird."
"I thought so too, when I first came here." Candie went to her dorm and grabbed a piece of parchment and a quill from her bag. She wrote to Draco asking where they were. Miranda and Candie went up to the owlry, and sent Hunter off with the letter.
Draco had led everyone down to the lake. They had been there for a while when he got the letter from Candie and Miranda. He scolded Gus for not leaving a note in the common room, so Miranda and Candie would know where everyone was. Just as Draco was sending his response; he noticed that the letter Candie had sent was on the back of her list. He read the list over and over. Heather had noticed him examining the piece of parchment and went to see what the matter was.
"What's so fascinating about that letter?" Heather asked playfully.
"Oh, uh…nothing, I was just…just examining…her hand writing." Draco stuttered as he noticed he was being watched. Heather thought he was acting a bit strange. Gus too had realized that Draco was acting funny. He glided over to Draco's side and peered at the parchment.
"What's this?" Gus said as he snatched the piece out of Draco's hand.
"It's rubbish, that's all." Draco tried to get it back but almost fell into the lake. Gus's eyes went wide; he looked from Draco to the list and back to Draco again.
"Can I speak with you for a moment?" Draco could sense Gus's anger. He nodded and they walked into the forest a little ways. Gus was acting normal until he turned around and yelled at Draco. "What is this? Is this some kind of joke?"
"No, this here; is a list that Candie made. It's a list of likes and dislikes. She's having a hard time deciding which one of us lucky blokes gets her."
"...Looks like your side is the better of the two." Gus was clearly taken away by this. "Wait, she has great kisser down for both of us."
"How would she know if you were a great kisser?" Draco and Gus said in unison. Draco gave Gus a disgusting smirk. At this, Gus couldn't take it anymore. He lunged at Draco and punched him straight in the jaw. Draco rolled off his back and was now on top of Gus, he pulled out his wand and…
