Pirate Blood
Chapter 44
Those Sparrow Girls...
Chris was in an empty corridor, with the exception of Parvati and her group of friends, on her way to Divination when Parvati started walking alongside of her. "Hello Chris." Parvati said.
"Hey Parvati." she replied.
"Can we chat for a sec? I promise that it'll only take a moment." Parvati said in a voice that Chris knew all too well. The voice that sounded like she was faking being sweet and innocent. It was the voice that teenage girls used when they were about to do something really catty and/or bitchy.
She glanced toward Parvati's group of friends. They were all staring and whispering. Through all of the schools that she'd been to, the way this happened never changed much. Chris knew that there could be potential catfight brewing here if she agreed to talk to her. Chris also knew that she wouldn't be able to escape this if she bolted, it would just prolong whatever was about to happen. So she agreed to talk to the girl. She would just have to be calm and mature about it.
"Draco is mine." Parvati said flatly.
"Right. Whatever." Chris replied.
"I better not see you with him again." These were the times that Chris really wanted to reveal her true identity.
"You don't own him. He can make his own decisions about who he wants to hang out with."
"He said that you were suffocating him."
"Right, I'm sure he did." Chris said in complete disbelief.
"You stole him from me, but I'll get him back."
"I couldn't have stolen something that you never had."
"I'm just telling you to back off, okay?"
"I'm just telling you to fuck off, okay?" So much for trying to be the calm and mature one.
"You're going to have to fight for him. Are you sure you want to do that?"
'He's my fucking husband! There isn't anything for you to fight for!' Chris thought. "Yeah, I have no problem fighting. Are you sure you want to fight? You'll probably break a nail in the process."
"Yeah, I'm sure."
"Alright then. Are we done with this little conversation? Because I think your minute's up."
"We're done. Go."
Chris rolled her eyes and walked away. What had she just gotten herself into?

Draco and Harry both had no morning classes that day. So they decided to spend the morning in the dungeons training. Harry was dedicated to his sword fighting training. He knew that this would be the key to killing Voldemort once and for all. After two hours, Draco suggested that they take a break for some water.
"So, your dad is on Voldemort's side yet you aren't. How does that work exactly?" Harry asked.
Draco flinched at the name. "Subtle, Potter, real subtle."
"Well, I wanted to know."
"He's a dumb ass. I'm not." Draco said simply.
"I mean why don't you follow him too? How were you able to ignore everything your parents taught you?"
"First off, it's parent not parents. My mother had nothing to do with teaching me or not teaching me to follow the Dark Lord. Second, well there are a lot of answers I could give. The first one being the fact that I'm a teenager. If you tell a teenager not to do something, it's very likely that they will. The second reason is Kaylee. She's the only one who told me that I had a choice in being a Death Eater. She showed me what the light side was fighting for. I realized that the light side was the good one, not the dark side. Like I said, I'm not a dumb ass."
"What about Blaise and Pansy?"
"For Blaise, well I guess those Sparrow girls have the same effect on us. He was in love with Kaylee's sister, Isabel. Pansy, I love her like a sister, okay? But she tends to follow the crowd without much pushing. Just goes with what everyone else is doing."
"You know after this whole thing is over, you could make a wonderful soap opera out of your life story." Harry joked.
Draco laughed, "My life story? Look at yours! The boy who lived. You can make a nice soap opera out of yours too. We're done for today. You should go back to your dorm and rest."
"See you around."
Draco walked back up to his dorm. Before he said the password to the portrait, it opened. Out came a girl, Dani James. She looked flushed and disheveled. Her auburn hair was tangled, her shirt was only half tucked in, and her lip gloss was smeared.
"Hi Draco." Dani said, looking a bit shocked to see him.
"Hi." Draco replied, confused as to what she was doing there. Before he could ask her, she practically ran away.
