Frankie's POV

'Please stop!' I screamed.
There was silence. But he kept at it.
'No! Please get away from me!' I screamed again.

I jolted up. Why do you hate me God? Must you make me repeat that night, every night? I looked at the clock. 5:00. I got out of bed and grabbed my clothes. Shower time! I was too afraid to go back to sleep. So I hopped in the shower.

When I go out I quickly dried myself off and used my wand to once again, dry it and straighten it.

You should really do something for yourself for once.
Shut up. I do things for myself all the time. I don't need magic. It just helps.
Mmhh.
Aha! Make up! I do that myself!
Whatever.
Hah you know you were wrong!
I may have been wrong, but you're still the one talking to yourself.
Damn. You got me there.

I put on my robes and walked out of the bathroom taking a glace at the clock once again. 5:45. my room mates won't be waking up till 7. This is crappy.

I walked out of the room and down the stairs. I debated on whether to stay in the common room or walk around the halls like a mindless idiot.

Mindless idiot won. I left the common room with my bag so I wouldn't have to come back. I walked around the halls and entered the girl's bathroom.
"How come no ones ever in here?" I asked myself.
"Because of me!" a voice yelled. I turned around to find a girl. She was a ghost.
"Who are you?" I asked.
"Myrtle. But they all call me Moaning Myrtle." She said in a crying voice.
"It's nice to meet you. I'm Frankie." I smiled.
She smiled back.
"So how long have you been here for?" I asked attempting to make conversation.
"Oh I don't know. It's hard to tell when you're in a bathroom night and day." She said. We talked for a while. I learned how she died, and how Harry killed the thing that killed her. Actually, Harry had saved the school from Voldemort, every year.



Wow. Quiet little Harry? He stood up to Voldemort?
I thought you told me you were me.
I did indeed.
Well than you should know he did.
You've really got to stop being so rude.
You've really got to stop being an idiot.
You just called yourself an idiot.
You just called yourself rude.
Shut up.
Mmhh.

I left the bathroom after saying goodbye to Myrtle. I walked down the halls, and just kept going where my feet decided to take me. Until I realized I had no idea where I was going. I turned around and walked back hoping I would see something I recognized signaling to my mind where to go.

I finally recognized where I was. I was soon going to be at the Great Hall.
I started to sing 'Mr. Brightside' quietly to myself. But when it came to the part 'But she's touching his chest. Now, he takes off her dress. Now, let me go' I couldn't help but get louder. I actually started dancing too. If you can picture it, a girl in a black robe, singing and swaying her hips like a complete and utter idiot while singing out the lyrics to Mr. Brightside?

After I finished the song, I had an unbelievable urge to sing 'Somebody Told Me'.
'Breaking my back just to know your name. Seventeen tracks and I've had it with this game. I'm breaking my back just to know your name. But heaven ain't close in a place like this. Anything goes but don't blink you might miss. Cause heaven ain't close in a place like this. I said heaven ain't close in a place like this. Bring it back down, bring it back down tonight. Never thought I'd let a rumor ruin my moonlight.'

I can just imagine an outsider's point of view on me right now. I just continued to sing my little heart away. As I was wiggling my hips down the hallway, I felt someone put their arms around them. I jumped and turned around. I looked at his face. He still kept his arms wrapped around me.
"Why are you awake so early?" he asked me.
"I just thought I would get ready before I got trampled on by all the other girls." I lied. He smirked.
"Liar. Its 6:30. You wouldn't have gotten up that early to wake up before the others." He said.
"Yes I would have. I thought getting ready would take longer than 45 minutes." I said. That was partly true. I was a girl, why did it only take 45 minutes?
"Mmhh." He said not believing me. Then it hit me. A bludger came and hit me 

right in the head. No, I'm kidding. No bludgers. But the thought hit me like that. I was standing in the middle of a hall way wrapped in Draco Malfoy's arms.

"D...Draco." I stuttered. Damn it, I stuttered!
"Yeah?" he said looking in my eyes.
"D... do..." I started. Speak properly you idiot!
"Frankie, why are you so nervous?" he said smirking.
"I... I..." why can't I speak? I'm never nervous around guys. Especially ones I've known for a while.

You like him, more than a friend.
No I don't. You liar!
Oh I think you do. You want him to tell you he likes you too.
No I don't! I don't like him. I used to but not anymore.
Why are you even trying to lie to me? I'm you. I know what your really thinking dumbass.

"Frankie, why are you so scared to talk to me? Are you on drugs? I thought we discussed that drugs aren't the answer!" he said smirking.
"You're an idiot." I said.
"Ahh there we go. Now tell me what you were going to tell me before." He said still smirking.
"I like to eat smurfs." I said.

WTF was that?
I really wish I knew.
Say something to him! He's going to think we're retarded.

He just stood there looking at me in utter confusion.
"Smurfs eh?" he said smirking when he saw my cheeks turn pink.
"That came out wrong." I said quickly.
"So I wasn't suppose to hear about your secret love of eating smurfs?" he said smirking.
"No. That was meant to be kept a secret." I said smirking back.
"Frankie, would you just tell me now?" he said. Why did he want to know so badly?
"Can we go get some breakfast? I'm starving!" I said pulling away, hoping he would drop it.
He nodded and we walked into the Great Hall. It was like half full when we got there. I sat down next to him, and across from Blaise, and Flint.
"Hey guys." I said while grabbing some waffles.
"Hey, Frankie. Where did Draco and you come from?" Blaise asked smirking.


"The hallway?" I said, putting on syrup.
"I see... so what classes do you guys have?" he asked.
"Potions, DADA, Herbology, Transfiguration, and Divination." I said.
"Eww. I have every class with you" Draco said sneering.
"Uhh! Damn!" I said sarcastically. Draco and I burst out laughing. Blaise and Flint just sat there looking at us like we were 'special'.

"Well I guess we should get to class" I said getting up.
"You sure you don't want to get some smurfs before we go?" Draco said smirking.
"It was an accident!" I said trying not to laugh.
"I think they're on drugs." Blaise said to Flint. Flint just nodded. He didn't talk much.

Draco and I walked into class and sat down in the back. There were a few people in there already.

I pulled out my binder and a pencil. I started drawing on my binder mindlessly. I wasn't even looking I was just staring out the window that was on the opposite side of the class room.

"Why are you writing my name on your binder?" Draco asked, pulling me out of the trance I was in.
"Sorry, what?" I asked.
"You were drawing my name on your binder" he said pointing to it.

Oh my god. I was.
I told you! You LOVE him!
Shut your face.
Shut my face?
SHUT UP!

I..." Dear old Snape walking into the room cut me off.
"Open your books." Was all he said.
"And what would the page number be? We're not all psychic." I said to Snape. The entire class looked at me shocked I had said that. The he turned around and looked at me.
"Ahh… Miss. Patricks. I see you've come to disturb my class." He said.
"No, just to disturb you." I said smiling. I heard people getting shocked again. But then... he did a Malfoy. He smirked at me.
"382. I'll see you after class Miss. Patricks." He said still smirking and walking to his desk.

Draco looked at me in shock.
"What?" I asked only loud enough for him to hear.
"He likes you." He said.
"Why?" I asked.
"You stood up to him. No one other than me has done that." He said smirking.
I smirked back.

The bell rang and class was over. I went to leave but then I remembered Snape wanted to see me. I told Draco to go on without me because I might be a while.

I walked over to his desk.
"You rang sir?" I said
"Don't do that ever again." He said
"I'm not following." I said.
"Don't talk back to me. Or you will have detention for the rest of the month." He said.
"Yeah, yeah. I get it. Anything else?" I said.
"Yes. Tell Mr. Malfoy, that I finally approve of his new girlfriend." He said.
"What? He has a girlfriend? Who?" I asked wanting to know.
"That will be all Miss. Patricks." He said.
"Oh come on you can't leave me hanging like this!" I said pleading to know.
"I said that will be all." He said in an angry tone.
"Fine. But I need a note saying why I'm late." I said smiling.
He nodded and handed me the note, and I walked out. I smiled as I saw Draco leaned against a wall.

"I told you not to wait for me!" I said


"I know. But I figured you would get lost." He said simply.
"Who's your new girlfriend?" I asked.
"What? I don't have one." he said.
"Well Snape seems to think you do." I said.
"Why? What did he say?" he asked and stopped walking so he could hear my answer clearly.
"He said ' Tell Mr. Malfoy, that I finally approve of his new girlfriend' and that's a direct quote." I said. Then Draco smirked then started laughing.
"He was talking about you. Dumbass." He said walking away still laughing.
"What?! Why does he think we are going out?" I called and ran after him.
"Because you were sitting next to me. Only the girls that I like are allowed to sit beside me, my rule not his." He said smirking still walking.
"Oh that's disgusting. Pansy has sat there? I don't think I can sit with you anymore Draco." I said acting as if I really was disgusted.
"I wouldn't let Pansy sit there. Are you nuts?" he asked.
"Draco..." I said looking around me.
"Yeah?" he asked
"Where are we?" I asked.
"Oh. Shit. I took the wrong hall." He said. He grabbed my hand and pulled me as we ran to Defense against the Dark Arts.

We finally got there and walked in the class. The entire class was watching us. I'm guessing they noticed the fact that we were both out of breath, and the fact that he was holding my hand. I looked around. Oh god they really did think that.
"Oh god no! We were not just doing what you think we were!" I said to the entire class, as they snickered.
"I swear! We were talking to Snape! Here's the note to prove it!" I said handing it to the teacher.
"Alright. This note does excuse you both. Sit down and stop disturbing the class!" the teacher yelled. We sat down and I turned to Draco.
"It excused us both?" I whispered to him.
"I guess he figured I would be waiting outside." He said shrugging.

The rest of the day went by rather quickly. Even though half the school now thought that I was Draco's new 'Flavor of the Week'.

Draco and I walked to The Great Hall for dinner. We were both laughing about something stupid that had happened earlier. I was still getting glares from all of the girls. But I didn't care any more. I was used to it.

We sat down and I grabbed some Fettuccine Alfredo. It just tastes so good. Yum! I thought as I hungrily dug into it. I was stuffing my face like a bulimic girl 

right before she was about to purge. I put great thoughts into your head eh?
"Frankie, its okay to chew you know." Draco said smirking at me.
"It's so good Draco!" I said smiling when I wiped my mouth so I look a bit more presentable.
"You know most girls when they are eating with guys, choose a salad." He said still smirking.
"Well I'm not most girls now am I?" I said smiling.
"No. You're not. That's what I love about you." He said smirking. I smiled back. I turned to Flint. Time to crack that shell he is in!
"So Flint, what's up?" I asked.
"Umm nothing. How are you?" he said looking at me like I was the first person to ever talk to him.
"I'm okay. It's not the best thing to be thought of as Draco's new slut, when they haven't even seen me kiss him, not that I would. But other than that wonderful!" I said smiling. He laughed.
"So do you like-" Flint was cut off. By Draco. Stupid ass.
"Frankie come on. Let's go" he said.
"I'm talking Draco. Flint was asking me something. Wait like 5 minutes okay?" I said trying to be as nice as possible. Even though it was so fake.
"Whatever. I'll be in the common room." he said. I turned back to Flint. He had a look of shock and happiness on his face.
"Thanks. But you could have gone. I was only going to ask you if you liked Hogwarts." He said still smiling. He had the worst teeth I had ever seen. But he was sweet, so I made an attempt at ignoring them.
"Yeah I know. I like Hogwarts actually. It's great. So much more different than my old school." I said smiling. He leaned close to me to tell me something quietly. I leaned forward to hear it.
"Thanks for talking to me. I know you're just being nice. But I like talking once and a while." He said.
"Anytime. And no I wasn't trying to be nice. I like talking to you!" I said smiling. We both leaned back to how we normally sit.
"Well I'm off to see Draco. I'll see you later!" I start getting up and walking out of the Great Hall. I walked into the common room and saw Draco sitting on the couch.

"What's up?" I said sitting down next to him.
"Frankie, I hate you." He said.

Did he just say what I think he did?
No I just put that image into your head. He's really in his room.
Are you serious! Why would you do that?
You're an idiot. I was being sarcastic.



"What? Why?" I asked still shocked.
"Because you're making me fall in love with you again. And I know I can't be with you. So you're leaving me here depressed all the time, because I always get what I want. This, I must say is a first." He said looking down.
"I thought you said you just wanted to be friends." I said with an eyebrow raised.
"What did you expect me to say? You told me that's all you wanted. There was nothing I could have said to make you change your mind." He said.
"Peanut butter and fried pickles!" I yelled out.

Seriously, what's wrong with you?
I scream out random things when I'm nervous.
Tell him that then. Before he goes for Pansy instead!
You're stupid.

"I'm sorry. I yell out random things when I'm..." I stopped. I shouldn't have said anything. I should have just run up to my room. I would have looked like an idiot, yes. But I wouldn't be sitting here awkwardly.
"Frankie, do you..." he stopped when he saw everyone piling in to the common room. I guess dinner was over. The room got crowded quickly, and I got up.
"I'm going to bed." I said.
"But... Yeah me too. I'll see you tomorrow. And if you wake up early, take me with you." He said smirking.
"Alright. See you tomorrow." I said when he pulled me into a hug. He hugged me in front of everyone in Slytherin. This was very... unDraco of him. I hugged him back nonetheless. And pulled away and went upstairs to my room. I sat on my bed for about 30 seconds when Lilly, Carrie and Rachel ran into the room.

"Frankie! He hugged you! Now you can't tell us that your still just friends!" Carrie screamed with joy.
"Sorry girls. But it was a friendly hug. No shagging going on here." I said.
"Are you serious? Because the entire school thinks you're dating!" Lilly said.
"Eww. They do? Why? Where's the proof?" I asked quickly and angrily.
"Yes. And to your other questions, I don't know." Rachel said.
"Well girlies, I'm off to sleep now. Nighty night!" I said switching my light off making the room pitch black. They all sighed and got up and left. I slowly drifted off into a sweet slumber.
