Frankie's POV
It had been a week since we had gone to the party. Draco and I spent all of the time we could, together. I was confused though. Was I his girlfriend? Or was I just someone he makes out with occasionally? Well he asked me to meet him in the park around 5:00. It was four so I went down to see what my brother was up to.
"Hey Tommy! Sup gangsta?" I said with a straight face.
"Nothing g." he said. We both laughed knowing how white we really were.
"Where have you been this past week? I thought we were going to go skateboarding?" he asked a bit sad.
"Oh I'm sorry I forgot! Its just Draco and me have been really busy and crap. Don't worry tomorrow it will be only us!" I said with a smile on my face.We had always been really close. Not like regular brothers and sisters who fight all the time. I mean yeah we fight, but we hang out more than we fight.
"Alright, homie. I'm off to go see Draco." I said while laughing.
"You know there is more to life than that kid." He said trying to say it with a straight face.
"Not this week!" I said and ran out the door.When I got to the park Draco wasn't there. So I sat on the swings and waited for him. I pulled out my iPod and just sat there. Suddenly I felt hands grab my shoulders. I screamed. And then felt stupid because it was only Draco.
"You almost gave me a heart attack!" I said
"Ohh poor baby. I'm here for you!" he said smirking
"So how come you wanted me to meet you here?" I asked
"Well I kind of had something to ask you" he said. I smiled to myself hoping I knew what he was going to ask.He sat on the other swing just staring at me. He looked as if he were debating what to say next, in his head.
"You still there?" I said waving my hands in his face.
"Oh, sorry." He said snapping back into reality.
"So, what I was going to ask you was Will you be my girlfriend?" he asked while looking down, as if I was going to reject him. Why was he so like, self-conscious? This wasn't the regular cocky Draco I had been used to.
"Of course I will" I said smiling.
"Good." He said.
"What's going on with you?" I asked
"What do you mean?" he asked looking a little angry that I had said something.
"You just seem really depressed, do you want to talk about anything?" I asked. I really did care.
"I'm I'm fine. Its just Kate is-" he stopped.
"Umm, nothing. Let's just drop it okay?" he said quickly.
"Okay." I said not trying to press the subject.
"Listen I'm going away for a few days. So I just wanted to let you know, incase you think I'm like ignoring you, if you call or anything." He said while getting up off of the swing.
"Oh. Okay are you leaving soon?" I asked hoping we could talk some more.
"Yeah I'm leaving in like an hour. So I have to go now. But I'll see you in a bit!" he said. He kissed me on the cheek and left. I just stood there in total confusion.He asks me out, and then tells me he's leaving, and kisses me on the CHEEK?!I knew who I had to talk to.I stood on the doorstep. Afraid to knock on the door. But I had to know what was going on. So I did it.The door opened up and a house elf was standing there.
"May I help you miss?" he asked sweetly.
"Yes, may I please see Blaise?"
"Yes, of course miss. What is your name?" he asked so he could announce the fact that I'm here.
"Oh it's Francis Patrick." I said. I heard him run off to tell Blaise I was here.
"Miss Patrick is here to see you sir."
"Who?" he said. (I giggled)
"Miss Francis Patrick sir."
"Oh Frankie? Why is she here?" he asked rhetorically. He came to the door.
"Frankie how come you're here? Not that that's a bad thing or anything." He said confused.
"I need you to tell me about Kate." I said.
"How do you…?""Draco accidentally blurted something out about her and now that he is leaving for a few days, you're the only one I knew who I could ask.
"He nodded and let me into the house. He took me upstairs where there was a room with a television, and couches. He sat me down on the couch.
"You know Frankie, he asked me to never talk about her to anyone." He said.
"Oh. Well what am I suppose to do?" I asked getting a bit upset.
"Just listen. You've changed Draco. For the better I mean. He used to be cocky and rude. But when he's with you he's different. He acts like he used to before Kate. Now I know he told me not to, but you should know" he started.I nodded and let him continue.
"Kate was the girl that everyone wanted. So naturally Draco wanted her. He asked her out and they were inseparable. They were in love. It's was something everyone in Hogwarts wanted. Everything was perfect with them until Kate cheated on him. She slept with every guy in Slytherin, that's the house we are in at school. Not including me though." He said.
"Why would she do that? I thought they were in love?" I asked
"He loved her. We all thought she loved him. She just wanted to use him for sex. And after he gave her his virginity, it was like she just crossed him off her list, and went on to the next guy. She never even said she regretted cheating on him and breaking his heart." He said
"Oh my gosh. I can't believe her." I said.
"I know it's horrible. Ever since, Draco has never kissed a girl, or dated them, he just sleeps with them and, I guess like Kate did, crosses them off his list. He's never trusted anyone like he did, again. The only one who didn't seem to understand the whole one nightstand thing was Pansy. That's why she keeps coming to him thinking he loves her."
"So my aunt was right? He really has been with every girl in town? I can't believe this." I said getting up to leave.
"Frankie, wait. The reason I told you is because you changed him. He kissed you didn't he? And this is the first time he hasn't cheated on a girl since Kate. Frankie he's falling in love with you. He was falling harder for you than he did with Kate. I just don't understand why he hasn't asked you out yet."He said.
"He did. He asked me out before he told me he was leaving" I said.
"Thank, Merlin!" he said laughin.
"Thank you for telling me Blaise. But I've got to go see Draco before he leaves. Thanks again!" I said while running down the stairs and over to Draco's. I quickly knocked on his door hoping they hadn't left yet.His mother opened the door.
"Oh Frankie! I'm so glad you stopped by!" she said smiling big.
"It's nice to see you again. Has Draco left yet?" I asked.
"Left? Draco's not going anywhere. Actually he has been in his room for an hour or so now. Would you like me to get him?" she asked sweetly.
"Could I maybe go up there and surprise him?" I asked still shocked that he had lied to me.
"Oh of course. Just go on up. You two come down when your hungry and the house elves will fix you up something!" she said.
"Thank you Narcissa!" I said and went upstairs.I heard giggling coming from his room.'Please just be the TV please just be the TV' I thought to myself. I knocked on the door but there was no answer. I opened it up and saw something that I was not prepared to see. Draco was on his bed with a girl. They were kissing. Not wearing any clothes. Oh merlin. I can't handle this. The girl looked up and looked at me.
"Who are you!?" she asked as if I was just a stranger off of the street. Draco jumped off her and looked at me.I had tears forming in my eyes. But I would not let him see me cry over him.
"Frankie! It's not what you think!" he said
"You must be Kate." I said to her.
"Yes. And you are?" she asked rudely.
"No one. Just another name on his list." I said.I walked out of the house with tears pouring down my face. I couldn't handle this. I thought I was going to be sick.
