This Life's Mine (Draco Malfoy X OC Love Story)

Chapter 30

Draco and I have been walking around in the snow storm going from shop to shop in Hogsmeade. We've already gone to a few shops and are currently holding a few bags.

"Why don't we get some Butterbeer?" Draco asks pointing at the Three Broomsticks.

"Let's go." I smiled as we walked into the pub.

I sat down at a table while he got our drinks.

"Here you go love." Draco sat down across from me.

"Thank you." I said taking my drink. "This was a really good idea to do this today."

"I agree." He smiled. "You know what's funny? Pansy had actually asked me to go on the trip with her a few days ago."

"Really?" I asked, trying to look surprised.

"Yeah, she got mad when I told her no, that I was already spending the day with you." He explained.

"Well she does hate me so I understand why she was angry."

"That's what I thought too." He started to say. "Until I heard her tell her friends while they walked away that you had set her up by telling her to go for it."

I looked at him shocked and he smirked and laughed.

"You really are something Haley. Setting up Pansy like that is pretty evil of you. I kind of like it though."

I smiled at him. "Hey she deserved it."

Something behind Draco then caught my eye. I saw the golden trio just walk in.

"I'll be right back." Draco said getting up.

"Okay." I smiled as I saw him go to the bathroom.

I then looked back at the trio to see Slughorn talking to them. Probably to get them to join his club too. I watched them for a moment before Slughorn walked away and noticed me.

"Ah, Ms. Snape, good to see you." He smiled at me. "Did you and Mr. Zabini receive my letters?"

"Yes we did, we are excited to attend dinner." I told him.

"I'm glad to hear that. I will see you later then." He walked away.

"What was that about?" Draco asked as he sat back down.

"Nothing, he was just asking me about something." I explained.

"Okay." He said but he seemed nervous like something was wrong.

"Are you okay Draco?" I asked worriedly.

"Of course, why wouldn't I be? I mean I get to spend the day with you after all." He said, giving me a fake smile.

"You just seem kind of off." I explained.

He reached across the table and grabbed my hand.

"I promise that I'm okay." He said but I still didn't really believe it.

Draco and I have just gotten back to the castle and was about to walk down to the Slytherin common room.

"Haley." Severus called out when he turned a corner and spotted us.

We stopped and turned to him.

"I need you to come with me, it's urgent." He said, making me confused.

"I'll take your bags to your room." Draco said, grabbing my bags from me. "I'll meet up with you later."
