Chapter Two | Beautiful Hatred

Draco

"I'm just gonna go say hi, don't freak out okay?" Natalie whispered to me before walking off to go talk to Potter and Weasley. She so shouldn't be friends with those disgusting Gryffindors, they make her look so . . . nice, but as horrible as it may be, Natalie is nice. Apart from when she's bullying someone with me or bitching about some random twat to me, then she's not nice.

I went over with her, mainly because I really didn't want her getting into proper conversation with those Gryffindor twats. Natalie just looked at me with a sort of cute and confused look on her face when I stood behind her. She looked nice.

"Hey Natalie and Ma- um, Draco; is it okay if we talk to Draco alone?" Harry said pathetically. Me? Alone? Oh please don't torture me Natalie!

"That's cool with me I guess. See you in a minute Draco," Natalie responded before walking over to the table I picked out and curling up delicately on the seat.

I gave Harry and Ron a questioning look so that they'd have to talk first. I really didn't want to see too curious, despite the fact that I was.

"Is it true? Like really, seriously true? It can't be true! It's insane!" Ron spluttered unattractively. What the hell?!

"Is what true? That you're a sad ass freak? Oh because that much is definitely true, Weasley!" I snapped back.

"You know what we're talking about, Malfoy!" Harry snapped, "Is it true that you like Hermione? Like really, Malfoy! Ginny said that some other random people said that you said that you liked Hermione!"

I blinked a few times at them.

". . . Like that would be true! God dammit you freak Gryffindors, don't be so stupid! Me? Hermione? Me? Mudblood? Not happening, Potter! Not happening!" I laughed somewhat quietly. I was pretty sure Natalie couldn't hear, but I was just going to make up some stupid lie as to why they wanted me. Like really, me and Hermione for god's sake. . . . I so don't need Natalie getting the wrong impression of me.

Harry sighed then dragged Ron out of Starbucks as he whispered something pointless to him. I walked over to Natalie, trying to look cool and oh so Draco.

"Should I get the coffee?" Natalie asked as soon as I sat down.

"I really don't want any," I said stupidly slowly. Natalie just shrugged then looked at me for a while.

"You know, Draco Malfoy, you have the most amazing eyes ever," Natalie randomly said, breaking the uncomfortable silence.

"You know, Natalie Ammel, you are the best looking suck up ever," I laughed. Natalie laughed too…oh god I love her laugh.

"Come on, let's go back home. I want to get to sleep before ten tonight – Hogwarts tomorrow!" Natalie said cheerily as she stood up and left.

"It's only 6:00pm!" I shouted as I tried to catch up with her.

"Yeah well we're going to have to eat something, figure out where I'm going to sleep tonight since you're damn parents are back home, get changed, talk for a while then probably hug or something before we go to bed," Natalie shouted back before running off even faster back to my house.

"We've done two of the things of your list of things we need to do before we go to sleep. It's going to be twelve before we get to sleep, so don't stress. Now we just need to find somewhere for you to sleep, then talk, then hug," I said as Natalie came into my room and lay on my bed next to me. She got changed into her pyjamas and like hell does she look sexy. She had on a tight spaghetti-strap tank top and tight black mini shorts. God I love this girl.

"Lets do the finding somewhere for me to sleep thing next," Natalie said as she turned over on her side to face me.

"Okay, well you can't sleep anywhere apart from my room and the only place you could sleep in my room is my bed since no way are you sleeping on the floor. We could share my bed I guess, it's not like my parents ever look in and all we're going to be doing is sleeping so that's okay…" I quickly babbled, "So now just to do the talking and the hugging."

Natalie laughed her sexy laugh for the twelfth time so far today. Yes, I count and no that does not mean I'm obsessed with her! It just means I love her.

"Okay well…I'm tired. Talk tomorrow?" Natalie said yawning before she slipped under the duvet covering my bed and slowly yet beautifully falling asleep.
