FIRST DAY of winter break and I'm already bored to the core. I haven't seen Draco all day so I have been spending time with Luna and Elio, at the Ravenclaw table, eating lunch and chatting away. I was super happy to hear that they were staying too, I really needed some friends.

After only eating a piece of toast, Draco comes running in the hall and dragging me through the corridors, out of the castle, "Come on, I want to show you something." We headed towards the black lake, I started to see a picnic mat laid out on the reedy grass. There was a basket filled with foods and books laying near it.

I approached the spot and sat down, "Draco, you did all this?" I held a book that was once on the mat and slowly started to flick the pages. Draco knew I loved reading, we would spend countless hours reading everywhere and anywhere, together.

"Of course, where did you think I was all day?" Draco came and sat down beside me, pulling out some bread, fruits and juice. I laid down on his lap, reading, while he was practically inhaling the bowl of strawberries.

"Slow down with the strawberries, Draco. They aren't going anywhere." I chortled, looking up at him through my lashes. I sat up and tried to take some off his bowl but he swerved his hand away.

"I'm not sharing, these are too good. You can have the blueberries." He narrowed his eyes at me as I closed my book, going through the basket and muttering a 'fine'. He continued to devour the scarlet-colored fruit, if he thinks I'm giving up that easy then he's wrong. I pretended to look for the blueberries for a second until I swiftly stole the bowl of strawberries, took one and ate it. I smiled at him smugly and kept on eating the strawberries, "Give them back, Nev."

"No." And with that, I took off, running away from the area, around the black lake and towards a tree, "Catch me if you can, Malfoy!" I shouted towards him and I saw him advance to my direction. Why in the bloody hell is he so fast? I was basically running my feet off, with the bowl of fruit still in my hand, giggling here and there while he was chasing me around the lake. 

He eventually caught up to me, snatching me by the waist, causing the both of us to tumble on the grass, him laying on top of me and the strawberries fell out of my hand. We stared into each other's eyes for a moment before he tilted his head down to kiss me. Our lips connected and the world seemed to circle around us. There was nothing more I could've asked for, all I want and have is Draco Malfoy. 

"Promise me this is forever." He blurted, out of the blue.

"I promise." I stuck out my pinky and interlocked it with his. In this moment, all I wanted to do was say those three words I never would've thought I'd say. This was all new to me, so instead, my mouth babbled something else, "I hate you." I smiled at him teasingly.
