Roseline brushed off all other of her thoughts about Ron. It had kept her strolling in the icy courtyard for hours. And Once again she felt like trailing him through the castle. Just this morning she was playing James bond casting spells,spying,and looking through books at him in Library she also added her own theme music. Eventually though the librarian told her to cut it out, and that was the end of that she thought, grinning at her desperate measures.

She sat down, watching the sky become a darker gray, foretelling night. More snow fell from the skies, and she thought that she had better be heading inside. Rose quickly dashed through the enveloping cold towards the castle entrance. Walking through the tall aged wooden doors she entered the enormous grand foyer.

Her school loafers clicked against the glistening marble floor.

The magical glow of candle lights flickered on the rich embalmed tapestries bearing their reds and golds in the dimmed lights. Dark wooden chests displaying treasures lined the stone walls igniting the flames dancing through the castle.

It was so...silent it was almost eerie she thought a slight chill running down her spine.

Usually there were many students chatting and fluttering about the entry way. Glancing around the regal castle foyer she slowly walked up the stairs clutching her wand at the ready.

She walked tensely down the corridors her robes swishing in the glow of the vague fading light. Roseline strolled about the halls admiring the Goblets and trophies that gleamed with jewels aflame boldly engraved.

Portraits hung there detailed pictures stirring and moving restlessly about the castle. An old wizard yawned in his golden frame catching her off guard. She stared at his sparkling silver beard and his rounded spectacles.

"You girl, you better hurry off Gryffindor, that Slytherin boy is causing trouble again.Nasty those Slytherins, never did like them..."

As she neared the tower a shadowed figure penetrated the deathly silence. She gasped in fright pointing her wand shakily in the direction of the movement.

Rose was quite unprepared to hear a familiar stiff laugh from the shadows.

Draco Malfoy stepped into the light his eyes glittering sinisterly. He smirked arrogantly looking extremely pleased with himself, his most infamous trait.

"Well, well if it isnt miss Aura wandering the halls all alone. What happened to the know-it-all, Potter and the Weasel? Your grand saviors".

"Rose glarred daggers at him clenching her wand." Leave my friends out of this you jerk" she spat her wand burning into her palm.

"You amuse me when you re mad'', he scoffed.

She tried to maneuver around him but he stepped in time to her movements and blocked her only path.

"Im serious Malfloy", she said folding her arms saucily.

"And you will do what about that exactly'', Draco smirked.

"I will put a leg locker jinks on you, and trust me you wont be walking any where for weeks." Roseline shot at him scowling.

"Well aren't we sassy?", he mocked backing away." Remember Aura,

I have high friends in high places". "If you knew what was good for you, you would do well to respect me."

"Yeah whatever malfoy" she smiled sarcastically at the stupidness of it.

The malevolence in eyes was evidently shinning through along with another strange look she could not quite place her finger on. He looked a little flustered.

"Draco, can you just stop being full of it and stand aside so I can pass?"

He smirked, and moved backward creating a barrier between her and the stair case to Gryffindor Tower.

"Malfoy,you are such a jerk, get out of the way or I am reporting you to Professor McGonagall!"

She glared in cancerous loathing in him. She began to turn on her heel. He grabbed her arm but she stepped on his foot.

"Hasn't anyone told you to respect your boyfriend", he shot back hissing viciously.

"What!", she questioned in a laughable horror." "You really are mad Malfoy, after all." She rolled her eyes.

"You heard me. You do everything I say and I wont kill that sniveling Weseal".He directed his wand at her throat. "Or you".

"Remember that I know very powerful people". Including the names other cowards dare not to speak"

With a flash he spun around in the other direction, cape fluttering in the distant hallway leaving Rose shock tainted and shivering in the bitter dark.
