I sat in the common room, too sick to go to class but too bored to stay in my bed all day, sprawled out on the couch and staring out of the window looking for weird fish in the lake, I thought of how unattractive I must look, gosh if he was to see me now I would just die of embarrassment. I giggled and blushed to myself when I thought of our brief eye contact in potions class just the other day, his bleach blonde hair shining in the light. I was surprised to find the common room so quite as it was usually filled with loud annoying first years.
I jumped in surprise when I heard the door from the boys dormitories creek open slowly, sitting up straight in shock and embarrassment not knowing who was coming down the stairs. And then I saw him, my heart sank but Adeline began to pump through my veins at the exact same time. My worst nightmare had come true, Draco Malfoy the Slytherin price was standing before me in only long plaid pants and a blanket in hand I blushed and hid my face in the covers.
"Hay," he said in his soft monotone voice causing my heart to race faster and my face to turn redder,
"hi" I replied but it came out in more of a croak due to my cold and nerves.
"Ha-ha," he chuckled and I blushed once more, "there must be a bug going round" I looked at him in all his glory my blue eyes wide with excitement and tensions.
"em…yeah there must be" yeah there must be what kind of reply is that you stupid bimbo, use some of your cunning slytherin pride to win this god over, make him want you, " you could join me, I mean only if you wanted, but I don't really care" I mentally hit myself, I just have to breath.
"Yeah I think I might" oh my gosh Draco Malfoy is sitting with me in the common room alone…ALONE how I prayed for this day to come.
"So," he said trying to break the tension,
"yeah so," I didn't know what to say I couldn't move I was sweating and my heart was pounding so loud he could probably hear it.
"You look amazing, for a sick person I mean" I could see the light ting of red appear across his cheeks, he liked me, he liked me too.
I got up and walked over to join him on the couch across from where I was, felling that I now had the upper hand I sat down next to him and looked deep in to those gray eyes and said "Look hunny I'm going to save us both a lot of awkwardness and embarrassment but just stop me if you want, and I mean were both sick so no harm done" and with that I grabbed his face and locked our lips together, my dreams had come true and oh how fulfilling it was to finally know what he felt like pressed up against me and from then on we promised to take one day off a month to spend together 'sick'.
