Disclaimer: I don't own any of the characters in Harry Potter. They are JKR's. I just manipulate them into doing my bidding ;) I simply own my dear Violette.
A/N: In response to Princess-Maiden's question; yes they are all in the same year. I've just noticed how unclear that is in the desciption in the first chapter :) Keep the reviews coming! x
Chapter 5
For the next week, Violette and Draco spoke frequently, each time Violette making her interest more obvious. Draco had started calling her Smith, just as she had said and it made her smile each time she heard it. She called him Draco though, as he requested. In most lessons Draco sat on the same table as Violette, but he still had at least of his friends to accompany him. The only exception was in Defence Against the Dark Arts. They sat at desks for two people. Violette had already sat down before Draco or Luna arrived, and when Draco walked in her had sat next to her. Whether it was just to annoy her or just a gut whim, Violette didn't know what had compelled Draco to sit there.
Violette was looking forward to see what new conversations the weekend might bring.
On Saturday morning, after breakfast, Violette was walking back to the common room after breakfast. The rain was lashing against the windows and Violette was walking alone; Luna had stopped in search of the Wrackspurts she could hear. Near the Ravenclaw tower Violette heard Draco's voice echoing around the walks of one of the corridors. She walked to see what was happening.
"...and then he sneaks up behind you and shouts, BOO!" Draco was saying to a group of scared-looking first-years, Crabbe and Goyle were creasing in silent laughter behind him.
"Who are you talking about?" Violette cut into his next sentence and he looked at her smirking.
"So why didn't they make you a prefect, Miss Goody-Two-Shoes?" He teased.
"I don't know. So who are you talking about?" She asked smiling.
"Peeves. And I was just getting to the part where he always picks on First-Years, and pulls even worse pranks on them. Oh, and that there's no-one that can stop him." He continued, the First-Years cowering even more.
"Now, that's not true. He does make you jump first time, but the Bloody Baron can stop him, everyone knows that. Now come on, your blocking the hall way." She said, and the First-Years shuffled off quickly.
"I thought your common room was in the dungeons?" Violette said, crossing her arms.
"It is." Draco said.
"Then why are you up here. You better get a move on, or I'll get a prefect. Go on then, shove off" She said, smiling even more.
"Make me, Smith." Draco said, walking up to her and smirking. She laughed. "No, I didn't think you would. Now off you pop to your common room, there's a good girl." He said spinning her around and pushing her down the corridor.
"Fine." She said and walked up to the common room. She sat on the two-seater when Luna came in.
"Did you find anything?" Violette asked when she had sat down.
"No, they got away." Luna said.
"Oh." Violette said, trying to sound sympathetic.
"I don't mind though. They're everywhere." Luna said shrugging and taking out her copy of the Quibbler again.
