Forbidden, Draco Malfoy

2.

I woke up and got dressed early this morning because I didn't want to be late at my first potions lesson this year plus there was a new professor so I had to make a good impression

As soon as I was ready i left the dungeons and joined Hermione and Ginny at the great hall for breakfast. We gossiped about everything happened during the summer while eating.
Ginny was talking about her insecurity on being with Dean when I met those grey eyes, the ones i didn't tolerate, the ones that with a simple look, made me go mad.
His glare was full of disgust, repugnance and still softness.

I didn't understand this boy. Sometimes he was so mean that I just wanted to strangle him while sometimes he looked so broken and lost. I wanted to help him in those moments but then remembered who he was and continued to hate him.
Maybe that wasn't the right choice but what would Harry think if his sister helped his enemy?

At potions the new professor made presentation and said that we had to do a work in pair so my first thought was to be with Harry but Slughorn, the professor, said we had to be with someone from our house. The person I disliked less was Blaise Zabini but he was already paired with Pansy Parkinson. God I hate that girl. She fucked every Slytherin boy I know and is so mean with me, probably because of my family.

Anyways, the only person who had no partner was Draco fucking Malfoy. Could have it been worse?

We had to make a draught of living death and the one that got it perfect didn't have homework for one week. I really had to make it because I didn't want anymore stress with homework and for that, I had to work with Malfoy.

I hated it, but despite his evilness he had really great grades and succeeded to all the tests effortless. If he reviewed his lessons or tried hard to get even better grades, I'm sure he would beat Hermione.

I sat next to him and started reading the recipe, so did he. I then went to take the ingredients and the cauldron and brought them to our seats.

"Do I have to do everything or you will help me?" I said with a sarcastic tone.

"Chill Potter, I'm just trying to read the recipe." he said smirking.

We started making the potion and somehow we worked perfectly: if I was missing something he would do it, if he was making a mistake, I would correct it.

We finished our potion without any problem and before everyone could, so we had some time left.

"I'm sorry for yesterday, I was just tired" I said, regretting it the second the words left my mouth. Why did I even said that? Apologize to Malfoy, what was I thinking?

"Did I hear wrong? Diana Potter apologizing to me? I'm surprised." he said ironically.

Of course he would say that.
There was a silence after that. He remarked that I wasn't kidding and my apologies where serious.

"Don't worry, I was just on my thought. Didn't mean to react that way. I'm sorry too." He said with a more serious tone.

I was in shock. Was I in a dream or something? I got snapped from my thoughts by Slughorn saying with a high voice to cover the other's "Let's check your work".

No one brewed a perfect potion except for Draco and I. And I was pretty proud of us since Slughorn said that one single drop of it would kill us all.

I thanked Draco with a smirk and he replied by doing the same. I think Hermione saw us because for the rest of the day, she wouldn't talk to me.
