"Hey, Vina!" Draco shouted running over to you.

"Hi Draco!"

"Um, I was… What are you doing hear?" Draco demanded when he saw Harry and Ron.

"We should be asking YOU the same thing!!"

"Um, guys, I have to go. Snape wanted to talk to me about something…" they nod and you run to Snape's classroom.

"Ah, Miss Shalve, nice of you to show up."

"Sorry Professor."

"Come," Snape said as he guided you into his office. "Sit if you wish."

"Thank you Sir." You say taking a seat in a hard wooden chair. "Sir?"

"You are wondering why I asked to speak with you?"

"Yes, Sir. Is there a problem?"

"No, but it is about your extra-credit potion you handed in yesterday after class."

"Was there something wrong with it sir?"

"No, In fact, it was perfect. And quite advanced for a sixth year. Most grown-ups can't manage to mix it."

"And…?"

"And I want to see if you can do it again, right now."

"Now Sir?"

"Yes."

"Okay,"

Snape grabbed a caldron and ingredients. Then he grabbed a book and opened it to a random page. "Mix this one."

"Okay." You read the potion's instructions and start to mix. An hour later you poor it into a vile and hand it to him.

"Stay here as I test it." He said as he walked out of the room. Ten minutes later, he walked in. "You have made it correctly."

"Did you need proof Sir?"

"Yes, and I want you to teach my seventh year class this potion." He said pointing to another page. "They aren't getting it and if a sixth year shows them up, I hope they will listen in class."
You step out of the office and bump into Draco. "Sorry."

"It's okay. So, what did Snape want?"

"He wants me to teach his seventh year class a thing or two."

"Really?"

"Ya."

"Want to go for a walk?"

"Sure, but what about Dinner?"

"I can take care of that!" he took you by the arm and led you out onto the grounds. He took out his wand and used it to set up a picnic. You take a seat.

"Draco?"

"Ya?"

"Two weeks ago, in potions, what you said to me…"

Draco started blushing, "I, er, couldn't hold it in. sorry."

"Sorry? Why? It was sweet!"

He reached over and twirled a strand of your golden hair around his finger. "I meant it you know."

"Oh?"

"Don't believe me?"

"Nope!"

"I'll get you for that!" he said grabbing you and he started tickling your sides.

"No! Draco, stop!" he only intensified his tickling and you squeal. You role onto your back and he gets over you.
"Malfoy, GET OFF HER!!" you hear someone shout and a spell hits him in the back.

"Wha-?" he fell over and you sit up. He looked sick. His face was pail and his eyes seemed dull.

"DRACO!" he doesn't respond only stairs at you. You turn to see Harry. "What was that for?" you demand glairing at him.

"I-I-I-"

You get up and run into the castle. You find Professor McGonagall and tell her what happened. She followed you out to ware Draco lay still, almost frozen. Purple spots had formed on his face and hands. McGonagall picked him up with a spell and took him to the hospital wing. "Mr. Potter, What were you doing? Attacking a fellow student? You will have detention for two days."

"But,"

"Professor, Is Draco going to be okay?"

"Yes, he'll be back to normal tomorrow. You can go in to see him if you wish."

"Draco?"

"Vina, What happened?"

"Harry, he"

"Potter?"

"Ya."

"HE CURSED ME?"

"Ya. Is there something going on between you two?"

"Ya, in our first year I had offered my hand in friendship and he didn't take it. So now…"

"You hate each other?"

"Ya. I'M GOING TO KILL HIM!!"

"DRACO!!"

"Sorry, I didn't mean it."

"Good. Because I'm friends with him, Ron and Hermione."

"What? Then, are you, er, going with him?" Draco stumbled the words out

"Harry? No. We are just friends. Why?"

"B-because I-" at that moment the door swung open and a voice squealed Draco's name.
"Pansy! Get out!"

"Draco! I came when I- what is no-house doing hear?" Pansy demanded when she saw you holding Draco's hand.

"Out, I'm talking to her."

"But, DRAKIE!!"

"Pansy…"

You saw that Draco was getting angry so you stud up. "Hi, Pansy is it? I'm Vina." You offer your hand. She sneers and ignores it.

"Shut up no-house. Stay away from MY BOYFRIEND!!"

"Boyfriend?"

"Pansy, I AM NOT YOUR BOYFRIEND!! OUT!!" he grabbed his wand and pointed it at her.

Frowning she turned to go but hissed at you; "Watch your back no-house." After she got out of the room you sat back down.

"Sorry about that, she's nuts. She thinks I'm her boy-"

"Then your not?"

Draco started laughing "No."

"You look better."

"Hu?"

"Your face, the spots are gone."

"I had Spots?"

"Big purple ones."

He groaned. "No…"

"Don't worry, you still looked kind of cute."

"Cute?" his eyebrows raised.

"Why not? Now, what were you saying before Pansy came in?"

"Oh, that?"

"Ya."

"Um I tttttthhhhhhhiiiiiinnnnnnkyyyooooouuuuuuuaaaaarrrrrrreeeeeekiiiiiiiinnnnnnnndddddaaaaaahhhhhhhhcooooooot, goooooooooouuuuuutwwwwwwwiiiiiiitttttthhhhhhmmmmmmmmeeeeeeeee?" he mumbled so you couldn't understand him.

"What?"

"Willyougooutwithme?" this time you caught it.

"Are you asking me out?"

"Trying to."
"Oh, Draco!" you lean in towards him blushing and press your lips against his and slipped your arms around him. He started kissing you back and placed his hands on your sides. "Yes." You whisper between breathes.

"None of that in MY hospital!!"

"Sorry madam Pompfry." Draco said. You sit down, blushing at the fact you had got caught in a lip lock. "You okay Vina?"

"Ya, It's just that, well, that was my first."

"First kiss?"

"Ya."

"Then I'm glad it was with me." You smile and blush more. "Haven't you caused enough trouble, Potter?" you turn to see Harry behind you.

"I'm not here for YOU, Malfoy, I'm here for Vina. I'm supposed to tell her we have to go to our Dorms."

"Well, now you have told her. Go!"

"I will, once she dose."

"Potter…"

"Draco, really, I should go, and I don't want to be out after curfew."

"I don't know how you like him Vina." Harry said as you walked down the corridor.

"And I don't see how you don't."

"He's evil."

"He offered you a hand of friendship in your first year and you refused."

"That's different."

"How?"

"He offered me friendship if I did not become friends with Ron. He is incapable of love and kindness."

"Ha! That's a laugh!"

"What do you mean?"

"He's kind and loving to me."

Harry's eyes got big; "Are you, er, going, with him?"

"Yes, why?"

"Nothing." Harry said looking down.

"It doesn't bother you does it?"

"Hu? Oh, no."
