As I pulled back, his hand was still on my cheek moving it gently making my skin burning. I closed my eyes enjoying his touch and he was staring at the ring on my finger.

"It is really amazing" I said amazed and he nodded.

"Like me" he said and I stuck out my tongue at him.

"You wish" I said teasing him and he leaned to peck me on the lips. 

I was surprised, this wasn't something that I could imagine Draco doing. Besides, we were probably nothing (at least to him). I was afraid to ask, afraid to not lose these little moments with him. 

"What is that?" he pointed at my bag which the book I was reading before was almost fallen of it.

"Oh- nothing. Just the book I am currently reading" I explained taking it out and giving it to him. He took it in his hand, observing it carefully.

"Love will tear us apart" he read the title out loud and then gave it back to me.

"Is it the first time you are reading it?" he asked and I replied, "Yes, why?".

"Well, I am not going to spoil the end to you then" he said smiling and I gasped surprised.

"Why are you so surprised?" he asked and I shook my head. 

"Sorry, it's just you don't seem like someone who reads" I said being honest and he turned at me saying, "So do you".

"Fair enough. What's your favorite one?" I asked and he scrunched his noise while thinking.

"Hm, let me see. I guess The wind blows backwards  is a good one" he said and I nodded.

"Yes, but Spencer was an asshole from kicking her out of his life after he became popular at his school" I growled and he crossed his arms.

"Don't you understand? It was all a mask, to hide his depression" he explained and I said, "Yes but he didn't ask help from anyone even though Lauren was always there".

He was smiling at my answer and I looked at him weird.

"Who do you think Spencer looks like?" he asked raising his eyebrow and I let out a big breath.

"I am not depressed Draco" I rolled my eyes and said with a low tone voice.

"Whatever you say. Depressed or not, the similarities between you both are incredible" he said but I was kind of sleepy so I yawned.

"We can go for sleep" he said and smiled a little.

"Together?" I said laughing and he helped me to stand up.

"Would it bother you though? Not every girl has the chance to sleep with Draco Malfoy" he said arrogantly and I answered , "Woah, the line is huge then. Hope I will get a golden pass".

"We will see about that" he answered when we stood outside of my dorm room.

"Goodnight and thank you" I whispered to him so no one would hear us and showing my ring.

"You are welcome, goodnight" he said and glanced at my lips. He didn't make a move though, instead he turned around and left.

The next day I woke up and my room was empty. I dressed up quickly and went to the common room to leave.

"Hey Emily uhm-" I heard Ginny saying to me but I cut her off saying, "I don't want to talk to you".

"We just want to wish you a happy birthday" she said and I relaxed my shoulders, "Oh, thank you".

I was in the aisles now getting to my class after before the bell rang. We had Potions as the first class for today and when I entered the classroom professor Snape was surprisingly sitting on his desk. He glanced at me for a moment and then turned back to his paperwork.

"Did you do your homework ms Black?" he asked me with his cold voice.

"Yes, as always" I replied honestly and he put his pen down looking normally now to me.

"I am impressed by your performance in my class, considering who you father is" he said and I didn't know if that was a good or bad thing.

"Your potions essay wasn't bad" he said and grabbed it from his desk giving it back to me.

8.7/10

"Uhm thank you?" it sounded more like a question and he rolled his eyes before sitting back to his desk and the other students started coming in.

I saw Neville entering the class and we made an eye contact. He quickly came and sat next to me.

"Good morning" he said while taking his books out but I turned my head the other way, not wanting to answer him.

"Emily look -" he said but I turned with an angry expression at him.

"I expected from literally anyone to treat me like this but not from you Neville Longbottom" I said and he took a deep breath.

"Yes but I wanted to protect you. I wasn't planning to tell them but you know Hermione how she can be" he explained and I rolled my eyes.

"I am sorry, okay? At least let's get along on cl-classes" he said with his hands shaking and I nodded.

"Okay" I sighed and felt him smiling next to me.

Draco and Blaise entered the class, always late.

They sat to their seats and while they were taking their books out Draco winked at me without anyone noticing.

I felt my stomach fluttering with the way he was looking at me, but I started paying attention to Snape because when I was looking at Draco I couldn't hear anything around me.
