~A Rather Dark Love~

Chapter: 9 " Thank You!"

(Sweet Creature- Harry Styles)

Draco's pov 

I pushed the door open and scanned the room until I saw Riddle holding her. I ran to her and sat down. " Hey Soph what's wrong." I didn't know I cared for her so much. When she was talking her voice was very shaky and I couldn't really hear what she said. But I did hear " Harry and I are related." I bet I looked like I had just swallowed a slug. " WHAT!" She started to calm down. " We were playing a prank on Harry, Ron, and Hermione and we gave them Polyjuice. Then I asked them if they knew anything about my dad." She proceeded to tell me that Ron said " Sirius is Harry's godfather. He also is the reason his parents are dead." 

I looked at everyone in the room but Riddle caught my eye. Me and her had a thing in the past but that was before. " Hey, hey Soph it's okay... Do you want me to treat you to something? We can get dinner or we can go to Honeydukes?" I looked at her and she shook her head in response.  I helped her up and we walked out. I could tell that the two were staring at us. I turned around and gave them a devilish glare. " So where do you want to go?" " I don't know maybe Madam Puddifoot's?" She offered and I agreed. I would have agreed to go to a muggle shop.  I have never been to Madam Puddifoot's, though I have passed it many times.

 I walked her into the shop and took our seats. The place looked like what I imagined a muggle restaurant to look like. " What would you like Draco?" I turned my head to face her. " I don't know whatever you want." I have only ever had tea from the manor so I'm unsure. I don't even know what mum makes me but it is really good. The waiter came around and Soph ordered for us. I'm unsure what she said, I think it was just a plain black tea. We sat there talking until our tea came. She told me how she never really got to spend time with her father and she had lived with Professor Lupin since she was 2. That must hard I mean not having a real father, my father wasn't around a lot but still, I had my mother and he would always come back for dinner.

The waiter came and gave us our tea. " Thanks for this Draco." I nodded and picked it up and siped it. I almost spit it on Soph but remembered she had a bad day so I forced myself to swallow it. Then she started laughing " What?" What could she possibly be laughing at? " You have to add sugar." " Well, you could have told me that before I drank it!" She was laughing so much that she had to gasp for air. I picked up the cup of stuff that looked like sugar and poured it into my glass. I swirled it then to another sip. This time it was way worse. I grabbed the napkin on the table and spit it in. She started laughing even harder. " What the hell did I do this time?" She was laughing so much I was lucky to even make out a word. " That's not sugar." " Then what is it?" I was pissed at this point. " That's salt." " SALT!" I ran out the doors and grabbed a clump of snow. I put as much as I could in my mouth. Now thinking that wasn't the best idea. Soph came running out still laughing. I'm glad she is having fun. I wouldn't take It lightly if I found out Pottah and I were related. Wait? " IM BLOODY RELATED TO POTTAH!!!" Sophia immediately stopped laughing and ran towards Hogwarts. I chased after her and soon we were running down the dungeons into the common room.

Sophia's pov

Draco started chasing me down to the common room. So I ran to the girls dorm. I heard banging on the door. I ran to the bathroom and hid in the closet. That's when I heard a click. " Bombardum!" Draco yelled. " AAHHHH!" he picked me up and through me over his shoulder. I started punching and kicking him. "Draco put me down." He didn't respond. I couldn't tell where we were going but I knew we weren't inside of the school anymore.
