Inner Darkness (on hold)

|11| Sorting

A/n: Hi, so I am extremely sorry for how long it has taken to update. Lock down has been really taking a toll on my mental health and therefore creating a domino effect on the rest of my life so I have a lot going on. Now, this isnt me asking for guilt or pity or any of that BS. I just hope you guys arent mad at me for how much time I have taken off. I also just needed a break.

Ill try and get back to writing more and I hope you guys enjoy this book.

If you guys any ideas, suggestions or requests comment on this line and I will try and incorporate them.

I still have to edit this chapter so if there are any mistakes, I apologize in advance, it would also help me out if you could point them out. Fair warning, there is some bad language in this and this will apply throughout this book so if it makes you uncomfortable, stop reading.

Thank you.💚

"What was that for Malfoy?"

Anyone with common sense, or eyes for that matter, could clearly see that Cedric was irritating the blonde, and because of Draco's reluctance to turn around I nudged him in the arm. In turn, his head swung around like someone trying to hit a home run.

"What?!"

He spat and his piercing grey eyes met mine which made that rage bubble up inside me once again. Disrespect was not something I tolerated.

I don't know what it is about him that got me so riled up and the anger radiating off him was not helping me keep my temper in check.

"God! Why do you have to be so rude? Maybe if you weren't such a stuck-up prick someone might actually want to talk to you with good reason"

With that I rolled my eyes and looked away, but not before pointing toward the boy sitting opposite to me, signalling that I wasn't the one who wanted to talk to Malfoy. I heard the boy scoff and open his mouth to say something.

"Maybe if you weren't such a bitch people might actually like you"

I weighed my options and yes, it probably would be better if I kept my mouth shut, but I couldn't help myself.

"Yeah, whatever. You've known me all of what? 5 hours? Im surprised youre not in Gryffindor, I heard theyre judgy"

His mouth was agape and so was Cedric's. By the way that people have acted around the bastard, I suppose they were too afraid of calling him out. Then I remembered something that caught my attention when I was in the compartment with Susan and the rest of them. Ruby had mentioned Draco once or twice, and somehow his father entered the conversation. I assumed he was a professor or someone important, because the girls had mocked Malfoy about how he always tattle tales to his dad.

"Aww speechless. What are you gonna do, go tell daddy?"

A fake pout was imminent on my lips and then it became a smirk almost instantly.

Draco was fuming. He seemed used to a lot of attention, but not the negative kind that I was giving.

"Now, now. Lets keep things civil."

A loud sigh escaped me, and I closed my eyes to calm myself, just in case I did something I would regret.

"How about this?" I swivelled in my chair so that both boys were in my view.

"Draco, let's start over. Hi, Im Irina"

Extending my arm, I opened my palm hoping that he would shake it. To my surprise, he did.
