Collided Hearts: A Hogwarts story

8.

-BELLA'S POV-:
  I sat down at the Gryffindor table with my friends. My stomach had butterflies? I had never even looked at Draco Malfoy for more than a minute let alone talk up close with him. Why did I feel all warm inside?

  "Oi, Malfoy wasn't bothering you was he? Cause if he was I'll kill hi-" Ron spat before I cut him off.

  "No relax. He just-" Should I tell them about him inviting me out? Definitely not. It's not like it was an actual date. Just him wanting to get to know me for some.. strange reason? "He just told me to watch where I was going.." I said as I swallowed thickly.

  Everyone gave me a look of 'if you say so' before falling into an awkward silence.

Harry then spoke up talking about the Ravenclaw party. "Oh yea, are we gonna go?" I asked curiously. I'm not sure if I wanna go to the party, I mean I don't have much to wear.

  "You bet your ass we're going! Right Freddie?" George exclaimed. "Of course! It'll give ickle Ronniekins a chance to meet some girls" Fred teased. I noticed Hermione blush a bit before turning back to her book.

  "Oh sod off! You don't tease Ginny about her boring love life. Oh wait, that's because she's in love with the CHOSEN one!" Ron laughed out looking towards Harry. Thank Merlin Ginny isn't sitting with us because if she was, we'd be planning Ron and Fred's funeral!

  Harry went red to the face before stuttering "I-I'm sure that's n-not true Ron." Yet we all knew it was.

  I was in potions class writing down in my journal. Yes I write in a journal as silly as that sounds. I don't do well with expressing emotions. I like pouring it all out into my journal. I think the only person I've ever really confided to is Olive.

  My journal is my most prized possession. I always keep it with me, and when I don't I have it hidden somewhere.

  Us Gryffindors have potions with the Slytherins today. I was sitting next to an empty stool, and out of the corner of my eye I saw Harry coming to sit with me before Draco harshly grabbed a fistful of his robes pushing him aside and sitting next to me. "This seats taken Potter." He growled.

  I was taken aback by Draco's actions. Why would he sit next to me? I noticed that warm fuzzy feeling coming back in my stomach. Oh god.

  Harry went to go sit by Ron and Hermione. They all looked at me like I had betrayed them. It's not like I asked Draco to sit next to me.

  "Whatcha writing in there?" Draco asked with his eyebrows raised trying to get ahold of my journal.

  "N-nothing. Just some reminders."

  "Well, let me remind you about hanging out with me. You haven't forgotten have you?." He said with a smirk.

  I gave a slight nod, not daring to look into those deadly eyes. Gorgeous, but deadly. Deadly as in if I stared too long I might lose myself in them.

He snickered as he noticed my cheeks rising to a light pink. "Look at me." His voice was laced with amusement. I stayed looking down at the table while Snape was teaching. I couldn't react quick enough to tug away when he harshly grabbed my chin and turned my face towards him. His face was just so, perfect.

"Maybe Blaise was right.." he muttered

  "What?" I asked quietly. Our faces were only inches away from eachother. He blinked and jerked his head slightly back as in saying 'why did I just say that?' before letting my chin in his hand go.

  "Nothing." He said sternly before returning back to the lesson.

  Blaise was right about what? The thought lingered in my head for a moment before going back to paying attention to Snape. When I turned my head I caught Harry's eyes staring at me with a frown.
