Hey guys!
I don't have much to say to you today so straight to the point.
Disclaimer: nothing but the plot belongs to me in this story, everything else is property JKR.
Here's the next chapter! I hope you like it!
The next morning I woke up at the same time as Ginny so there was no way I could be late for breakfast, sadly.
"Are you ready for the flying lessons?" She asked as we walked.
"Ha! I don't think I'll ever be ready for that"
"I heard we are having the classes with the Slytherins" she whispered
"Keeps getting better"
"Oh come on Mione they're not that bad!" She sounded almost angry
"I known, I know, sorry, it's just that we have potions and history of magic with them already, now this, and I have to spend 4 hours a week with Draco... my Slytherin glass is almost full"
"You should try to get to know them, they are really fun"
"Yeah" I said all though it wasn't true, I don't have anything against them but in my 7 years of school life non had seem like "fun"
As we ate breakfast the mail arrived and Ginny received a letter from Ron.
"What does it say?" I asked, things had been terribly weird between me and Ron since we kissed last year, nothing really happened after that. I thought we would, like, start seeing each other, but he pretended the kiss never occurred. Once when I tried to talk about it he said to me "Mione I think it's better if we just forget about it, we're better off as friends" I nod and pretended I was completely fine with it, but that night when I got home I cried myself to sleep, it hadn't been the same between us. We didn't even fight anymore, we just ignored each other, like 7 years of friendship never existed, like all we had in common was Harry and Ginny. It hurt, a lot. I had been so sure we would be together... I was as wrong you could be.
But Ginny didn't know anything about it.
"Nothing, he's just talking about life back home, he says Tobby said his first words,and he also asks about how are you doing" Ginny said. He asked about time, nice time to pretend he cared, right? When he is home and I'm not.
"I can't believe he said his first words! That's so cute!" I said avoiding the Ron subject
"I know right!"
"Ok Ginny let's go, we have a class to attend" I said, sadly.
"Ok girls and boys, we are here for one reason, and one reason only. The fact that most of you, don't really know how to fly a broom. Not correctly anyway. And I'm here to change that, to help you change that" said professor Arreg "Now! You'll get in pairs! One Gryffindor and one Slytherin, and to show my kindest me, you are allowed to choose your own couples! You have half a minute!" Wow, she was intense, I thought.
Partner, partner, partner... a Slytherin partner, almost everybody was already taken and not knowing any serpent wasn't helping. I saw Ginny far away already with a partner, Blaise Zabini. I also saw some Gryffindor girls begging Malfoy to be with them, pathetic. Well, I guess those girls have their point, I thought, he was seeker of the Slytherin team after all, and he kinda had good look so I guess. He seemed to be rejecting them thou... weird.
"Professor Arreg!" I said when I saw her
"Miss Granger right?" She answered in high pitched voice
"Yeah," I smiled "I just wanted to ask you if I could maybe be alone..."
"Oh, I'm sorry miss Granger but did I not make myself clear?" She said with a cinical smile
"No! Of course you did! Crystal clear..."
"Then what's the problem?"
"I work better alone... and there is no one available anyway"
"You work better alone? Well miss Granger I'm afraid this class is all about team work, you kids today all autonomous" she sighed "and you are wrong, there is one boy just like you that insists on being alone, you'll team up with him, that way you can be alone together" she smiled
"And who would that be Professor?"
"That blonde Malfoy boy"
"You mean Draco Malfoy?" I asked eagerly
"Yes, him" she said and left.
I looked over at him, all the girls had already left. He looked at me as the professor got over to him.
"What?!" I heard him say
I know right? The worst of luck.
