The Law of Magic

Chapter 27

🎀Ginny's POV🎀

After Harry left, I turned back to Blaise. His head was looking away from me and the flowers and chocolates in his hands fell out from his hands when I tried to reach it and hold it myself a few moments ago.

"Who's this for?" I asked as I picked up the fallen tulips, roses, and chocolates.

"No one," He replied. His tone was disappointed and sad. Like he just failed.

I used my right hand and turned his head towards me.

"Really? No one?"

When he didn't reply I crossed my arms in my chest.

"Are you seeing...someone else?" I asked carefully.

"Of course not!" He replied defensively.

'Should I be more suspicious by his tone and answer?'

"Then who were these for?" I asked again while still holding the flowers and chocolates.

"For you," He mumbled. He removed my hands from his face and lowered his head, looking at the floor. I think he didn't think I heard it.

"Really?" I smiled.

Now, I look like a stupid shy girl in 13 years old. What the bloody hell!

"You heard it?" He asked raising his head up.

"I have a good hearing," I replied and shrugged.

He just nodded and said, "Umm...I should probably go now. I'm sorry for disturbing."

When he was about to go I grabbed his left hand hand turned him towards me.

"You're not a disturbnace. Now, what were these flowers and chocolates for?"

When he still didn't answer, I probably lost it. I don't like it when people are not answering me.

"What is this for, Blaise?!" I questioned him my voice a little bit rising higher.

Who the hell cares about other classes! As far as I know only the 7th years have classes later while I have a free period for anything!

His eyes widened and replied, "Geez! I was just going to ask you for Hogsmeade next Saturday when I saw you hugging Potter!"

It was my turn to widen my eyes but it immediately faded cause I hugged Blaise out of a sudden.

"You do know we're engaged? Not officially yes but still engaged. So what's to be shy for?"

"Well...I want us to date...officially...I-I like you," He said shyly and looked away.

"Who knew Blaise Zabini let alone a Slytherin could ever be so shy to speak out?" I teased him.

"Can't a man be scared to be rejected by the girl he likes?" He glared at me.

"Of course. Let's give it a go. I'll with come with you. Thanks for these. See you," I replied and kissed his left cheek.

But when I realized what I did I walked faster than necessary and my cheeks were burning red.

'I think we'd get along with all this. The Ministry was right about our compatibility.'

'I do like Blaise...'

👠Pansy's POV👠

"What the hell?!" I shrieked as the nail file I was using to clean my nails broke.

"This was new!" I said to no one.

Right now I was in our dorm's common room and I have a free period when the painting door opened and from there came out Draco, my prince.

"Drakey Poo!" I greeted him and opened my arms to hug him but he just walked passed me and went straight to sit at the one of couches.

He looks ravishing as always.

"Drakeeey," I cooed and sat down next to him caressing his biceps.

"Would you the bloody hell stop that Parkinson! You are engaged and I am engaged! Besides you never will become my girlfriend again!" He shouted at me and stormed out to his room.

Tears started forming my eyes. I know he doesn't love me. But I like him. I like him a lot.

We have known each other since we we're kids and he still doesn't see me as something more than an acquaintance, as someone who he was forced to date, or a friend.

He just sat down here with me to tell me about that. Yes, I'm thick. But I'm not that thick to understand that he doesn't like me the way I like him.

Before I knew it the tears that was building in my eyes fell and fell until it looked like a waterfall.

'I feel so broken.'

I cupped my face with my hands.

'I only wanted to feel love. But neither him nor my parents nor anyone ever showed me that I was worth it. Am I really not worth anything?'

"Parkinson?"

I turned to see my unofficial fiancé standing in the door rug, looking confused.

"What?!" I shrieked angrily and stood up as the tears in my eyes kept falling.

"Calm down! I was just going to ask you why are you crying. But it seems that I shouldn't have tried to, seeing how you reacted," He replied, annoyed.

Feeling so torn and broken, I sat down again as I sobbed silently.

'It hurts so much. Why can't someone just love me? Why can't I be happy?'

"You know, Parkinson. If we want to make this marriage thing work we should actually try to be civil and be honest with each other," He said and rubbed his hand at my back.

I don't know but right near him. I felt better and safe. He felt as though he is my safe haven.

"Thank you," I smiled genuinely for the first time in my life.

'I shouldn't be rude. I only have a few people who tries to work out with me.'

"See that wasn't so hard. Was it?" He said and smiled back at me as well.

"So why are you really crying?" He asked.

"Umm..."

"If you're not ready to tell me. It's alright. Just know that I'm right here," said Weasley still smiling.

I don't know why I felt like I wanted to hug him but some part of me wanted to but I know I just can't. It won't be right. I'm me and he's him.

"Friends?" suggested Ron and held out his hand for me to shake.

"Friends," I smiled again and I shook his hand.

"I have to go. I have some stuff to do," Ron said before he stood up. He grabbed the doorknob but before he could go.

I hugged him and said, "Thank you again, Ronald." I know it wasn't right but I just wanted to.

"Anytime," He said before smiling again.

He went outside and I sat back down. I suddenly reminisced what happened. He comforted and I let him?

May be he isn't really that bad...May be we could actually work.

So, I'm just gonna make Ron sound a little less Slytherin hater and a little less stubborn. Pansy has a lot of potential. May be? I just like to think so. Everyone deserves a second chance once in awhile. If Draco deserves one I thought she does too.

Thanks for reading! I hope you enjoyed. God bless you all!😇❤️
