Bad For Me

Chapter Three- Unreadable

"Alright, well I'll see you guys later. Crabbe, remember. Three eggs, two hundred and fifty grams of self raising flour, five hundred millilitres of milk and a pink of salt and a pinch of sugar. Add a tablespoon of butter too." I said as he quickly wrote it down on a scrap piece of parchment he had taken out of his pocket. 

"Thank you Via. I'll bring you some waffles too." Crabbe said as they all left. I smiled in acknowledgement. 

"Anytime." I said. He smiled and closed the door. It was pretty late and they had all missed dinner to spend time with me which was sweet. My room was freezing. I got the duvet and wrapped it around myself like a burrito. I curled up and laid down on my side and closed my eyes and tried to sleep. Nothing. Absolutely nothing. I sat thinking about what had happened earlier. Someone knocked on my door. I assumed it was Mattheo. But the boy who walked in was not Mattheo. Or Draco. "Blaise?" I said softly.

"Yeah. Sorry to bother you. We're all sitting in the common room drinking. Do you want to join? I'll carry you of course." He said.

"Sure. Give me a second though." I said softly. I unraveled my blanket and Blaise carefully picked me up. I was actually feeling a lot better. The bath did help.

I smiled. He walked me out and locked the door behind me. We walked down the cold and empty halls silently. He opened the common room door and I saw almost everyone sitting there. Everyone except Mattheo and Draco. My brother was sat next to Pansy who was giggling hysterically. He saw me and smiled warmly. Blaise sat me on my own couch and sat next to Crabbe who was on the floor eating some chips Pansy jumped up and snuggled next to me.

"You know Nott, I've actually really missed your presence. I need to come visit you more often." She said into my ear. I smiled warmly at her and rested my head on hers.

"I can actually agree with her on that Via." My brother said, shocking me completely.

"WHAT? You, missed me? Me? Your annoying little sister?" I said.

"Yes. Never saying it again." He said crossing his arms. I smiled at him and he rolled his eyes. The common room door opened and my favorite blonde boy walked through. He and I locked eyes and he smiled warmly and as unnoticeable as he could, he scuttled towards me and plopped down next to me, immediately wrapping his arms around me. Pansy laid on my lap while i rested my head on his chest. I played with his ring again and with my other hand stroked Pansy's hair as we all talked.

"So are you feeling better then?" Draco asked me.

"Kind of. Body still sort of aches but i'm better. I'll probably be able to walk soon." I smiled. He drew little circles on my thigh. Throughout the night he would look at me and kiss me on the forehead. I would smile back and kiss his chin. I had had quite a lot to drink at this point.

"No, that's fucking weird you know. You can't have a chicken without an egg." Goyle said.

"Yeah but you cant have an egg without a chicken." Pansy said.

"What the fuck. No I'm gonna go crazy thinking about this now. I need to go ask someone. Or read a book." Goyle said.

"Read? Didn't know you could read Goyle." I said.

"Oi, that's my line." Draco teased.

"Well, I stole it. What are you going to do about it?" I smiled.

"Give it back." He said playing along.

"Make me Blondie." I smirked.

"Ew get a room you two." Crabbe said. Crabbe had been passed out drunk on the floor, dribbling a bit for the last hour and a half.
