Friday: Yearly Yule Ball
Draco Malfoy:
I buttoned up my black shirt, my heart slightly racing for tonight, Let me tell you that I have no idea why. I felt a smirk grow onto my lips as I suddenly remembered Waters' face, and how she cried. How pathetic. My words weren't merely as harsh as what she was getting herself into with Valleys—But that was none of my business. I couldn't wait for her to realize that she was getting played.
"Ready yet?" Blaise slammed the door, a wide grin on his lips.
"Of fucking course," Zephen whooped, sending a high five to Blaise. I chuckled as I tied the laces to my shoes, glancing up at Zephen.
"You should've seen what I did to Waters last week," I snickered, finishing up the lace. "She fucking cried at the stupidest shit."
"Course she did," Blaise smirked, throwing an arm around me. "That's what all bitches do. They cry. right Zephen? Speaking of which—You fuck her yet?"
Zephen smiled, raising his brows. "I'm close, she thinks I care about her. Pathetic isn't it?"
"Give me tonight, Zabini. I always win, don't I?" He said nudging Blaise.
"She's stubborn," I mumbled, raising a brow. "She thinks she's the shit. There's no way she's letting you in." I said looking in the mirror fixing my tie.
"Didn't she yell at you in class a few days ago?" Blaise smirked, making me stiffen. "How did that feel? Getting owned by a fucking girl. Maybe she is worth the points."
them and stupid fucking 'points'.
"Shut the fuck up," I hissed, shoving his arm away from me. "Must I remind you who got transfigurated into a Zuchini in 3rd year? That's way worse than the mere words of a girl, especially Water's ."
"-You two also know damn well I'm getting closer with Waters for other reasons as well. With the rumors of the dark lord rising I cant miss this opportunity"
chills erupted over me at the mention of the dark lord.
"You really think it's her?" I questioned almost as if I were talking to myself .
Lily Potter was said to be carrying a child before The dark lord killed her and Potters Father. Potter was supposed to have a sister. Zephen and I's parents had a sudden epiphany that none other then Laura Waters is Potters long lost sister. Which is the most daft idea that's ever been thought of but, Zephen is determined. Of course, he wants to be rewarded and prove himself to his parents. Maybe even become one of them.
Zephen laughed at that.
"Connect the dots Malfoy. If it isn't her then it's no one" He said standing up straighter. "You read her diary for yourself didn't you?-her parents left her- she's a fucking ginger for gods sake, and you know who else was a ginger? The good old chosen ones dead mother."
"Potters a Halfblood. Waters said she was muggle born."
"She doesn't know who she is then. Huh? " He said confidently.
"Enough talking about this shit," I rolled my eyes, opening the room to our dorm.
"I thought we were getting to the ball late." Blaise said confused written on his face.
"I said i'd get there on time for pansy" I lied leaving.
I had to fucking walk Waters into the ball because of the dying man 'dumbledores' request. I couldn't disobey, that would be somewhat suspicious especially since I know what task I have to pursue soon.

She stood there alone, in her blush gown, near the great hall which was transformed into a elegantly decorated ballroom. Her two friends must of left her for their own dates.
I cleared my throat catching her attention. Her eyes shooting to my figure.
"Let's get this over with" I groaned giving her my arm to take.
She took it hesitantly. "right"
"You don't look too bad today." I said stating straight ahead.
She quizzed up at me for a second.
fuck. why did I say that.
It's like he couldn't hold back his words when it came to her. Wether it was a lie or the truth-he couldn't stay in control.
"Is thee Draco Malfoy complementing me?" She gasped mocking me. Her doe eyes looking up at me from the side as we ascended down the stairs.
"I wouldn't take it as a compliment." I murmured looking straight ahead-not glancing the girl a look.
she pulled back ready to spit out a insult "you-"
"-Ah, I see you two kids have taken my advice, brilliant to see you two on good terms" Dumbledore said calmly. "Well what are you standing there for?" He chuckled. "Go have fun kids" He grinning suspiciously.
I swear that man knew something I didn't.
"Go on go dance!"
We both got pushed onto the middle of the hall where the other students were dancing. Of course right as we step on the floor a slow song starts to play.
"-Your ugly Malfoy, like really ugly" Waters spat at me, her best attempt at trying to 'hurt my feelings'.
"Yet you cannot take your eyes off me. Interesting isn't it?" I laughed arrogantly.
I spun her around while she tried to tried to suppress a smile.
"You-" I cut her off before she could even continue.
"I-"
"I hate you" She said pushing me lightly.
" How many more times are you going to remind me? " I said taking her fragile hand.
"Until the day I die." She said with that smug look that she does.
"I hope that's soon"
Did I really mean that anymore?
Light hearted insults were being thrown left and right while they waltzed to the music with everyone. Light hearted. They received a few looks, that was indefinite. Waters dancing with Malfoy? The rumors would soon spread like a wildfire.
The world was shifting and so we're their hearts. The two of them would burn the world down city by city. The burning passion in their hearts- for each other had been suppressed for too long. How much longer could they keep up the act? Maybe forever. The question was who would break first?
It was like a internal game a war even.
"Waters-hello?"
"-oh I- nevermind"
"Obviously you've got something on your mind" I scoffed.
