After the very successful quidditch try outs, my new quidditch team and I walked back to our common room. The twins and had teased me the entire way, and I lost track of the amount of times they tripped me up.

As soon as I got back to the common room I collapsed onto the couch. I was completely exhausted.

Harry, following after me, jumped on the couch, and I put my legs on top of his to get comfy.

"Oh, I'm your own personal footstool now?" He asked, raising his eyebrows at me.

"Mhm." I replied. "Feel honoured that I chose you to carry out such a complex job."

He rolled his eyes and chuckled. I flinched slightly as I felt his fingers gently rest against my legs.

I hate to admit it but it felt nice to be around him, and his touch. I'm still trying to stop things going too far, but this is okay...right?

I closed my eyes and almost drifted off to sleep until something popped into my mind.

..........DRACO!!!!!

I watched Florence as she began to close her eyes. I gazed at her. Her face lit up by the glowing fireplace.

Merlin, she's beautiful. She has no idea.

It felt as thought we had just gotten comfy, before she suddenly jumped up and ran off to her dorm. I assumed she was bringing something down, but I was wrong.

She returned wearing some short pajama bottoms and a t-shirt. Her hair was messy, but still somehow looked perfect. I couldn't help but notice how she never looked anything other than perfect.

She walked towards me, and it was then I noticed that she had trainers on. Why did she need trainers? I thought she was only getting changed for bed?

"Where are you going?" I asked casually.

"I-it's not important." She looked away. "Can I borrow your invisibility cloak? Please, Harry?" She used her cute little puppy dog eyes on me.

I couldn't say no to her.

"Fine, but at least tell me why you need it?" I brought it out and handed it to her reluctantly.

"Why does it matter?" She asked, her eyes still avoiding my gaze.

"Because Flo, I care about you and-" I paused.

A bad feeling ran through me. What if she was seeing Malfoy? He had whispered something to her earlier during class.

"-if it's Malfoy you're seeing then, I need to tell you Florence.......I don't trust him...... especially with you."

"I'm not seeing Draco." She said, crossing her arms. "And even if it was, I don't see how it's a problem. I'm a big girl, and I can take care of myself."

She's right, of course. It's not my place.

"You're right. Just....be safe."

"Yeah, I will be." She chuckled as she left through the portrait hole. 

A really awful thought crossed my mind. I have to follow her. I have to make sure she'll be okay.

I made my way up to the Astronomy tower and I don't know why, but I kept thinking of Harry, more specifically, about how guilty I feel for lying to him.
