OK, hi everyone I hope you like it!
Draco´s POV
Detention with Snape.I thought that because I am, well, me, and my dad is friends with Snape I could easily get away with this. But no, Snape happened to be serious about detention, and obviously due to my injured state I couldn´t just go out and pick some wildflowers and bugs for his potions, now I had to help him do some papers in his office. I mean, it´s not like wildflowers and bugs were actually fun, but they were better than this awkward silence and a ton of first year essays.
Oh wait, this was about to get good, little Greengrass and her epic failure of an essay. Even though her handwriting was kind of beautiful, lady elegant and flawless, when you started reading you just wanted to kill yourself. OK, I guess that everybody knows that mandragora is used to heal people, not to get them to sleep. And besides, she was adding a double dose of pepper, which would reduce the effect instead of enlarging it.
Is she usually this bad?- I asked, giving him the essay. He over read it, and handed it back.
She tends to be worst- he replied, grabbing another essay. I took hers again and kept reading. This was unbelievable, out of her 5 steps, 3 were wrong.
And how do you grade this?- I asked, staring at him
I can´t tell a student the way I grade, Mr. Malfoy- he answered, with a harsh look that told me to shut up.
Then how do I grade it?- I asked, looking back at him
As you consider it fair- he concluded, without even turning to me.
Suddenly, I realized the golden chance that I had in my hands. This was the perfect time for revenge. I mean, I think a Troll in potions would get her to behave better, and in the end, she actually deserved it. And it would be even more pleasant if I left a message on her essay. I smirked. This was my best idea in ages.
Don´t thank me, thank the detention you got me into.
Consider it done, little virgin
Draco M-A-L-F-O-Y
Yeah, that was one of my greatest ideas.
ONE WEEK LATER
Astoria´s POV
Today it was the day. I´d worked really hard during 2 weeks and finally Snape was handing the essays back. I was really, really nervous.
Calm down, I´m sure you did well- Mildred said, smiling at me. For her, it was easy to smile, she was kind of good in potions.
Good afternoon, today as you all know I will hand in your essays, they are a determinant part of your grade , so, Mr. VanGrovov please deliver the essays while the rest of you open your books and answers to the questions I wrote on the board, and I´ll be right back- he said, and then ran off. Probably to the Headmaster´s .Mils received her essay.
-What? Poor? This was worth an acceptable, at least- She said, starting to read her essay again. I could just wait for my dead sentence, and it was finally handed in.
I felt my eyes started to fill with tears. Troll. I had worked really hard for 2 weeks to hand in an Acceptable essay, and Troll was all I got. This shouldn´t surprise me, I sucked in potions after all.
In the end of the essay there was a note, so I read it.
Don´t thank me, thank the detention you got me into.
Consider it done, little virgin
Draco M-A-L-F-O-Y
-What a jerk- I said dropping the papers and starting to cry. Mildred grabbed them
-You worked so hard, he just, you didn´t deserve it, you should talk to Snape- she said, wiping my tears.
- Snape won´t do a thing, his detention was grading our essays, and he and Mr. Malfoy are friends- I answered, sobbing.
-Then you should talk to him, and tell him to sing or to brig mariachis*, but not to mess with your grades- she insisted, but I knew there was nothing I could do, guys like him always win.
The day passed by but I couldn´t focus on anything. I could only imagine my parent´s reactions when they saw my troll. They would kill me, or kick me out of the family.
After lunch, I sat on the leather couch at the common room with a bunch of potions books. I had to find any mistake, correct it and hand it in again. Maybe Snape would give me a chance. I´m a Slytherin after all. I started my work with The 20 Most Useful Potions, and Mandragora in Potions, I took out 100 Most Common Ingredients and their uses when he showed up, a blonde jerk with his girlfriend and a band of fans.
All I could do was stare at him, FURIOUS. If glares killed, he would have died a long time ago. When his gang left, he was finally alone so I could put him in his place. I stood up, took my essay and walked towards him. I was going to do my best to hold my tears, and try to actually say something.
Malfoy- I managed to say, pointing at the footnote.
Oh so it worked, you learnt my name- he replied smiling.
Do you find it funny? This is really unfair, you can´t mess with my grades for nothing, and specially my potions grade- I said, still trying to hold my tears.
You deserved that grade anyway, that was just a note- he answered, looking right in my eyes. OK, now the tears just started coming out. I stood up with the dignity that I had left, and walked away.
Draco´s POV
-You deserved that grade anyway, that was just a note-I said, as cold as possibly. When I turned to her, her eyes were filled with tears. Shit, this was no way ending well. She looked so fragile and petite .She stood up and ran to the girls' dorms.
I tuned to the table. There were lots of potions book, with her own notes and some parts of the text were underlined. Oh My God. She was trying to correct her essay. Her grades were actually important for her. That´s why she cried! This was no game for her. I ran to the dorms, trying to find her.
-Dracey you can´t be here let´s go to the common room- said Pansy grabbing my arm before I noticed she appeared .
-I just have to hand this to someone- I replied showing her the books. She glared them and then me.
-K- she answered walking away. I saw Astoria´s dorm at the end of the corridor. I knocked and came in. Her face was red, and so were her eyes.
-What do you want?- she asked, turning around.
- I wanted to give you this- I left the books on her desktop- and say I´m sorry. I had no idea Potions Class was that important- I managed to say. She didn´t answer, or turn around, so I walked away.
-You are worst than I was told, I worked weeks on that, and you just ruin it, you could´ve sang, sent me a band, curse me, but you had no right to ruin something that important- she said, almost beating my coldest tone.
- And I already said I´m sorry- I replied, god she looked defenseless like a puppy.
- Tell that to my parents after they murder me- she said, walking away, and then coming back.
-This is my room, leave now- she yelled furious, pointing at the door.
-You´re worst that Granger- I said, leaving.
-At least she has a soul- she said, closing the door. Then I felt like shit for the first time in my life. Granger was no way better than me, and less as a person. I was a pure-blood, and a gentleman. I had to fix this.
