The Unexpected

Sweet Memories

Draco was walking through the halls with his head held high when he saw the girl the same age as him. Draco remembered thinking she was beautiful but he knew they be together. She had the hair and eyes of a Weasley but what Draco had done next had surprised him. 

"Red hair and Hazel eyes, you must be a Weasley." He sneered. The girl looked over at him. "What the hell is a Weasley?" She asked confused. Draco's face softened. "You're not a Weasley?" The girl shook her head. "Not that I know of."  Draco looked the girl up and down from head to toe. 

"What's your name?" He asked out of curiosity. The girl in front of him sighed. "Magnolia Potter." She barely whispered. Draco's eyes widened. "Potter, like Harry Potter?" Magnolia nodded. "I'm his sister." Draco's brows raised. "I didn't know Potter had a sister." Magnolia shrugged. "No one does, I'm not the famous one."  And that was when Draco saw the pain in those mixed eyes. That's when he saw the look of just wanting to be loved, the same gleam that shown brightly in his own smoky eyes. 

Draco hadn't crossed paths much with the girl again until fourth year. Draco was going to work up the courage to ask the girl to the yule ball but it was forbidden by his family....and someone else had already beaten him too it. 

Draco watched from afar as Magnolia danced with Theodore Knott, One of Draco's best friends. Magnolia still had the gleam in her eyes that Draco had seen the very first day of school and Draco wanted nothing more than to be the one who put that fire out. 

Pansy walked over and groaned. "Can we dance?" Draco looked over at her. "No." He should have brought someone equally as attractive as Magnolia to the dance. 

It was no secret Magnolia was hot and most guys at Hogwarts trailed after her but Draco saw she was broken just like him and maybe she'd understand him unlike the rest. After the ball thought Magnolia and Theo continued dating. 

Draco sat in the common room across from Theo. "So you and Potter?" He asked. Theo snickered and nodded. "Someone jealous I got the finest catch at Hogwarts?" Draco looked up at Theo with stone cold eyes. "Who said you have a firm grip on your fishing rod?" Draco whispered. Theo raised his brow at that and leaned into the couch. "Excuse me?" 

Draco scoffed. "Please, if you ask the girls around here the top two chased after boys in our year are me and Potter and the top girls are Potter and Abbott. Everyone knows top dog goes with top dog." Theo rolled his eyes. "Then maybe you should go after Abbott. Mags is mine." Draco leaned into the couch. "We'll see about that." 

Magnolia had spent more time with the group seeing at her boyfriend was apart of it and upon knowing her Draco fell harder. The looks and wanting to fix the broken girl had started it but upon getting to know the sarcastic, mischievous, and immature girl, Draco had fallen to rock bottom and he fell hard. Draco was a Slytherin after all, he was ambitious, and he would get Magnolia no matter how hard it took. 

"Can I pay you tomorrow?" Draco inhale air through clenched teeth. "Sorry but no payment," He scrunched the bag up and stuffed it into his pocket. "No drugs." Magnolia bit her lip. She wanted to relax so she could enjoy the rest of the party. She just wanted one day to let loose. "Can I pay you another way?" Draco looked Magnolia up and down as he ran his tongue over his teeth. "I didn't think you were like that, Mags."

Magnolia scoffed. "I didn't realize you were a drug dealer." Draco nodded. "Touché," He thought for a minute. "Can you use that mouth for something other than smart mouthing?" Magnolia sighed. "I didn't mean like that, Malfoy. I'm with Theo." Draco nodded. "You are," He paused. "But word in the corridor is that he won't take you to bed but you want to." Magnolia felt a lump form in her throat. "I'm not prostituting myself for two pills." Draco chuckled. "Two? Someone thinks they're worth a lot," Magnolia glared at him. Draco threw his hands up. "I'm kidding, Potter," He dropped the bag into his drawer and shut it. Magnolia's face fell as he did.

"Maybe it's not Xanax you need," Draco walked over to Magnolia and swept his hand underneath her chin. "Maybe it's sexual relief." Magnolia's breath caught in her throat. "Malfoy!" She shrieked as she pulled away. Draco shrugged. "What? I won't tell if you don't." Magnolia bit her lip. She glance over at the picture of her and Theo on the bedside table.

Magnolia walked over and laid the frame down. Draco grinned as he watched over her shoulder. "No one can know." Draco grinned and rubbed his hands together. "Agreed. If word got out that I slept with you, My enemy's sister, a Potter, I'd be ruined," Draco walked over and moved Magnolia hair to the left side of her neck. He sent shivers down Magnolia's spine as his fingers brushed against her spine. "But that doesn't mean I won't enjoy it." Draco leaned down and pressed his lips to Magnolia's neck. His left hand went to her hip and squeezed slightly. He waved his other hand. "Colloportus." He mumbled against Magnolia's neck, locking the door.

The two had had many instances together but not in the way the two had hoped. 

Magnolia shook her head. "No. Frankly I don't." Draco leaned forward so he was resting on the balls of his feet. "Theo doesn't want to do anything with you yet. So you better look forward to more frustration like yesterday because you'll be real familiar with it," Magnolia's face fell as her shoulders dropped.

Draco grinned. "Unless." Magnolia looked up at him and searched his face. She knew by the grin he had an idea that wasn't good. "Unless?" She asked. She hated to admit it but she was intrigued. Draco's grinned turned bigger. This didn't mean she was open to the idea but it also didn't mean that she wasn't interested.

"Well there's always continuing this thing we have and keeping it a secret." Magnolia's face fell. She bit her lip. "What exactly are you suggesting, Malfoy?" She knew exactly what but she needed to hear him say it. "Well whenever one of us needs it we please the other," He paused and leaned into her ear. "However they'd like," He clicked his tongue sending shivers down her spine. Draco pulled away. "Just think about it. You don't have to make any final decisions yet but uh if you do meet me in the broom closet outside the transfigurations classroom after dinner. I didn't get my turn yesterday." He threw a dramatic wink at her and walked away. Magnolia's breath caught in her throat and she watched as Draco walked away.

Magnolia stood there for a few minutes thinking about Draco's offer. She shook her head and felt rage at herself for even considering. "What the hell, Mags? You love Theo," She told herself. "Draco's just some stupid prick!"

Their back and forth game of casual sex went on for a while but not without feelings going. 

Draco stood behind Magnolia. She was sitting on the edge of the astronomy tower. "Mags." Draco whispered. Magnolia turned around. "Draco I told you I needed to be alone for a while." Draco nodded. "I know but I couldn't stay away." Magnolia's brows furrowed. "What?" She whispered. Draco sighed and walked over. He grabbed Magnolia's hand and Magnolia stared at their intertwined fingers. 

"I know it's crazy but I need you to hear me out," Draco whispered. Magnolia looked up, connecting their gaze. "I've grown feelings for you. I mean," Draco shook his head. "I liked you before we started this. You're funny and beautiful and mischievous and smart," Draco sighed. "But you areTheo's girlfriend. I don't know what I expected to happen with this. I guess I thought they'd just go away but they won't and I'm not going to force them away." 

Magnolia searched Draco's eyes. "I don't even know why I told you, of course you don't feel the s-" Magnolia smashed her lips into Draco's. Draco pulled away and Magnolia sat down. "I don't know how it happened," Magnolia started. "But I fell for you, Draco Malfoy, and I fell hard." Draco pulled Magnolia onto his lap and she wrapped her arms around his neck. Magnolia leaned in and the two kissed passionately. 

"I'm scared." Magnolia whispered, pulling Draco out of his thoughts as they walked through the hallways. Draco stopped and cupped Magnolia's cheeks. "Don't be. I'm here. I'll always be here."
