"im here" i say getting to the common room. i spot pansy and daphne talking and they stop when i come in. "hey! ready to go?" i nod and we go outside.

we went to go find draco. i spot harry and ask him if he's seen him, he shakes his head and i go back to the girls. "no luck y/n. sorry" pansy says. then i see harry walk somewhere and hear a familiar voice.

"why so tense potter?" its draco, i look to see where its coming from and i spot him in a tree, his friends underneath the tree. "well i found malfoy" i say to the girls.

"my father and i have a bet you see. i dont think you'll last ten minutes in the tournament.." he catches my eye and winks, dropping from the tree. i blush but i know damn well he'll say something mean to harry.

"he disagrees.. he won't think you'll last five" he says smirking making crabbe and goyle laugh behind him.

ugh draco, what are you doing?

i walk over to harry, "i dont give a damn what your father thinks malfoy. he's vile and cruel. and you're pathetic." he then walks away and i walk with him.

"how dare you talk to me like that." i hear draco say. i dont see it but he pulled his wand out and professor moody turns him into a ferret. everyone laughs but me, even harry smiles. i elbow him and he looks at me like "what?".

i go over to professor moody, "stop! he doesn't know what he's doing turn him back!" i say in front of him. he ignores me, using his wand to make the ferret.. erm, draco, go into goyles pants. im so angry at him, i take him out carefully, petting him and setting him on the ground. i heard professor mcgonagall yell, "professor moody.. professor moody! is that a student??" she says unimpressed.

"yes, this will teach him not to use magic on another student behind their back" he says making draco go up and down in the air. professor mcgonagall turns draco back to human and he gets up saying, "my father will hear about this!"

he sees me and smiles while i whisper, "run draco!" and he runs making the professor chase him until he goes into the school.

"y/n wait" i hear a voice behind me as im going to my usual spot, the tree by the black lake.

"hi draco! are you alright? it was not ok for a teacher to do something like that. especially to you! but might i add, you kinda deserved it being rude to harry like that." i say walking next to him, sitting up against the tree. he sits next to me and watches my lips as i talk.

"i know, my father will hear about it. im owling him tonight." he says making an angry-ish face looking over the lake. i laugh and open my art book. this time i want to draw a living thing, creature, or person, maybe. then i see draco and i smile to myself.

"thank you y/n. for helping me." he says shyly. i smile and nod. "you're welcome ferret boy". he shoves me lightly.

"draco? can i draw you?" he looks to me and is in shock. he doesn't know how to respond. "uhm.. sure..? just don't make me look horrible. ive seen your drawings" he says sarcastically, smirking at me. i roll my eyes and i tell him to just make himself comfortable. "dont move draco!" i say while he moves to mess me up on purpose.

after i finish i show him and he says, "wow, you really made me look less pale here" he says making me shove him. "i tried ok." i said looking down at the drawing. he watches me and says, "its lovely y/n, thank you". i look up into his blue-gray eyes. my mind is feeling something different. he goes to tuck my hair behind my ear, making me blush. he puts his hand on my cheek, i grab his hand with my left one and we just look at each other for a while. it was peaceful, brilliant, astonishing.

"draco this is hard, i cant do it" i say giving up after an hour of practice.

"you won't get better if you give up. lets try again. put your hands.. here and i put mine.. here" he says grabbing my hands to put around his neck, while he puts his on my waist.

"draco. im a bad dancer can we just give up pleaseee?" i say, with pleading eyes. he shakes his head no and i roll my eyes, tired and wanting to stop.

"sorry.." i say as i step on his feet. "its ok little birdy just follow my lead. let me guide you and you just go with it ok?" he says.

"alright.." i don't believe it will work. he starts leading and i find myself not stepping on his feet. i watch the ground and he uses his other hand to lift my chin. "dont watch your feet. see? you're doing it" he says and i smile knowing im getting better. we stop and i get so happy.

"i did it! i didnt step on your feet!" i say jumping in excitement. draco smiles because im happy about this small thing. i hug him and he was caught off guard. his eyes in shock, widen when he realizes, i hugged him. i feel him give in and hug back. i let go and we stand in awkwardness for a moment before he says, "uhm we should go to dinner now". he rubs the back of his neck, looking in my eyes. i nod and we walk out of the common room.

"i may or may not have stepped on your feet on purpose." i finally break the tension. he shoves me slightly, "i kinda figured you were".
