Protective [D.M]

My head was so full, but so empty at the same time. I didn't really know what to think. Should I go talk to Snape?

Maybe it's better to just ignore it. I mean I don't want anyone to find out about it, so it's better if I ignored it. Maybe it'll go away?

"Wow, the colour finally came back to your face," I heard from behind me and quickly turned around.

"Oh it's you," I said seeing Merroy walking right behind me. "Not the friendliest hello, is it?" He chuckled.

"Mhmm," I said carelessly. I wasn't in a mood to talk to him right now, so I kept walking. Well technically I was never in a mood to talk to Merroy.

But he kept following me. I guess he was skipping class too. I walked into the empty common room and sat down on one of the sofas.

The second I sat down, Merroy walked into the common room. He quickly looked around to see if someone was around and then sat next to me on the sofa.

I raised and eyebrow at him. "The whole other sofa is free and you had to come breathe the same air as me?" I looked at him.

"I like this sofa more," he said. Ughh! I didn't want to sit next to him, but I didn't have anywhere to scoot, because I was on the end of the sofa. I also didn't want to give him the satisfaction of me going to sit on the other one. Yes, I'm this petty...

"So, what freaked you out so much earlier?" He turned to me with a slightly sarcastic tone. "None of your business, Merroy," I snapped and just looked in front of me.

"Is it because of Snape?" He asked with a smirk. "What?! What about him?" Did he know?! No way!

"Were you sad because you and Snape broke up?" His smirk widened.

"Oh fuck you Merroy, you have some sick fantasies," I said in response. He was so gross. Especially bow.

"Don't worry I just asked. So you're free now?" He asked with a weird tone. "Ha. Ha. Fuck off." I said firmly.

"Nope, you didn't answer the question. Are you free now?" He repeated himself, scooting even closer to me. I was so uncomfortable because I had nowhere to scoot.

"No!" I yelled.

"You're with Draco now? Knew it!" He said like he was convinced. His eyes narrowed and face seemed to be waiting for an answer.

"No, I'm not with Draco," I said while trying to keep myself as calm as I could. Merroy's disgusting personality wasn't making it any easier.

"Then who is it?" He said with a mean joking voice, tilting his head to the side a little.

"Rickon," I said shortly. He doesn't know him anyway. And even if he did, I wasn't lying.

"Rickon? I don't know any Rickons. Is he in Hogwarts?" He got more curious, looking around in the room and back at me.

"No he's not," I said shortly, rolling my eyes and getting up from the sofa.

"Oh I know!" He stated. I turned around with a confused look. Did he really know? I mean he had been to a quidditch match here, but still.

"He's one of those guys who girls make up, just to not seem that desparate," he laughed. "I mean what kind of name is Rickon anyway. You could've at least thought of a normal name," he kept laughing.

"Fuck off," I stuck up my middle finger as I walked to my dorm. I quickly locked the dorm door, just in case. Fucking Merroy!

I sat down at my bed and stared at the floor. I was trying to think of a plan what should I do next, but I couldn't get any good ideas. It was too cold in the dorm.
