PLEASE REVIEW.
I DO NOT OWN HARRY POTTER
'Stay away from me.' I announced, my voice shaking in fear, not of him, but for him.
'I've already been punished if that's what your worried about.'
'What? What did he do to you?' I looked up at his insane face, is Draco worse than I thought?
'As if you don't already know.' He spat and his jaw clenched in anger 'what does he see in you? What makes you so special?' He ran a hand through his brown waves.
I shook my head my eyes glittering with tears, and looked down.
'Do you like me then Hermione?' he sneered, though a honest look graced his face.
'It was a mistake, Cassius.'
'Oh please, you don't have to pretend i see the way you look at me.' He took a step closer.
I looked at him like he was mad.
'Excuse me?'
'We'll have to keep it secret though. Draco is after you' he said it with warning behind his words. Goosebumps rose on my arms.
'Keep what a secret?' I wondered aloud.
'This' Suddenly he struck like a viper on its prey , his lips pressed against mine, I pushed at him with my arms but it made no difference, Panicking I finally slammed my knee into his crotch causing him to immediately pull away with a yelp.
I ran away without a look back clutching a book to my chest.
I stared down at my perfectly brewed amortentia proudly.
I whispered a spell into the darkness' causing it to transform into a white powder.
Looking down at my pale hand which looked luminous in the night, I traced the serpent ring on my finger before clicking the snakes head down causing the ring to click open. (AN this is a pillbox/poison ring)
Flicking my wand from the power to the ring I watched as the power danced through the air before sliding into my ring like sand in a time turner.
I clicked it shut with my thumb, and disposed of the evidence of the powder.
Smiling to myself I slid my hand into my pockets and whistled a mischievous tune walking back to the slytherin dorm .
I had gotten up early that morning to send everyone off on their Christmas holiday, Harry was going to stay with the Weasleys, I was invited but had decided to stay and study for the exams coming up , my parents had agreed knowing how committed I was to school they sent gifts in a large basket. Determined to push all thoughts of Draco and Cassius from my mind, I was glad to know I would be free all Christmas to relax.
Ginny wrapped her arms around me,
'Have a good Christmas Hermione, are you sure you don't want to come?' She smiled her suitcase hovering behind her.
'No its okay. I'll keep myself busy' I smiled unconvincingly and she reached into her pocket.
'I forgot to give this to you.' She handed me a napkin and I folded it open.
'I didn't have time to wrap it, but I thought it would nice it your curls.' She lifted the deep red rose hair corsage and clipped it into my wild hair.
'Thank you Ginny' suddenly I felt guilty for only giving her hogsmeade chocolate Christmas frogs.
She smiled before waving goodbye and dragging Ron away who was trying to muss Harry's hair.
'Bye Mione!' They apparated.
And I felt a strong sense of loss and loneliness as I made my way over to Luna who was saying goodbye to everyone.
'You're forgetting me Hermione.'
Cassius stood proudly with his two large green suitcases smiling smugly.
'I have nothing to say to you.' I growled.
'What not even a goodbye kiss?' He leaned in.
'No.' I said, murmuring a spell to cause both his suitcases to drop from their hovering position and slamming the floor, causing one to open. He cursed turning around quickly.
I turned around a grin spreading on face as I walked back to the great hall.
My grin however quickly dissolved as I watched Draco leaning again the large wooden door to the hall. He looked annoyingly perfect, his platinum hair combed to the side in a shining halo.
'Guess whose keeping you company!' He practically sang.
YAY
