Cold Eyes (Draco Malfoy)

Prince in Shining Armor

Silvia woke up still under the tree, but no longer under the stars.

She gazed around, taking in her surroundings.

Merlin

Merlin!

"Class!" She yelled out to nobody and pulled her hair from her face, she probably looked like Medusa. She took off, running to her first hour.

"Accio book bag" she hissed before stepping in, her book back landing in her outstretched arm.

She walked inside, and was about to sneak into her first seat, but there he was.

Suddenly, all the memories from the night before rushed back, had she been ignoring them? There was no way to ignore them now.

But fury bubbled inside her, even though the time they shared was not rude, was not terrible, it was liberating.

He was sitting in Cedrics chair. She froze at the door, feeling her face turn red with anger.

Malfoy smirked, probably thinking she was blushing from him being close after last nights events.

"How nice of you to join us.. Miss Donovan.." Snape wheeled on her in his baritone voice.

"Take your usual seat." He nodded dismissively.

She reluctantly took a seat, the golden trio eyeing her.

"What are you doing here?" She whispered furiously at Malfoy.

"Donovan, we have this class together don't you know." He grinned thinking he was clearly doing something to her.

"No, Malfoy. I mean here." She growled, her eyebrows knitted together. She motioned to Cedrics old seat. Nobody had sit there since he had died.

"Thought you could use some company." He shrugged lightly. "Didnt you miss me?"

"Last I recall, actually, you're the one who left so quickly." She rounded, and the class grew silent.

"Miss Donovan, late and interrupting. Detention." Snape droned, continuing with the class.

Silvia stood, deciding she needed a walk, and left. But she didn't miss the confusion in Malfoy's face.

————————————————————————

Within the next hour of waiting for the next class to begin, she found herself at the astronomy tower, at peace.

She stayed there for the next class. And the next one. And the next one. And it was lunch.

Silvias feet found herself in the Great Hall and she sat by Ron, who's plate was already full.

She took her plate and started to pull BTL's off of Rons plate.

"Hey! What are you playing at?" He asked, mouth full.

"Ron, half of the feast is on your plate, relax." She shrugged and began to feed her starving stomach.

Cho Chang had heard about how close Silvia and Cedric were, but not as close as them. Obviously.

But she wanted to cry, and to bond over him with someone. So after lunch she caught her on her way to care of magical creatures. She grabbed her arm.

"Excuse me?" Silvia turned and her face softened at seeing Cho.

"Sorry, thought it was someone else." She smiled warmly.

"Don't worry about it.." Cho struggled a smile.

"I was thinking.. I know you knew Cedric. Probably close to how I knew him." She choked on her words, so Silvia gave a reassuring hand on her shoulder.
