It was another one of those nights where it was just Regan and I in our room as tonight is the night of Professor Slughorn's Christmas Party so that meant Hermione and Harry are there and Rons off with his new girlfriend. I wanted to get Regans advice on Draco and what I should do but I don't really know what exactly is up with Draco or why he has been distant with me.

"So Reegs, remember when we had a conversation before and I told you about what I heard between Draco and his Mum and that he was acting weird the last time we had sex?" Regan just nodded "well he has been really distant with me and I'm worried about him, in classes he is always looking off into the distant and always has this face on him that shows he is deep in thought, what do I do?" Regan took a few moments before responding, "I've seen him in classes and I can see what you are talking about, he doesn't seem interested in anything or like he isn't paying attention, have you tried sending him an owl to meet or talk?" she asked me. "Yes, but he is always busy" I told her. "Ok well something is clearly taking all his attention and it's clear it has something to do with what you heard round his that time. It's still early and I don't think there is much of a curfew right now so why don't you go and find him now and talk to him, see if you can get the truth out of him." she suggested. I thought about it for a few moments before nodding and before standing up and grabbing my wand, I was about to walk out of the room before turning around "how are things with Tae, how was your date?" I asked Regan realising I hadn't asked. She just looked at me and ushered me out the room "go find Draco, I tell you when you get back later". I laughed at her before turning back around and out the room and into the corridors. I guess I should head to the Dungeons but then again knowing Draco he will probably being stalking the halls or trying to sneak into the party so it looks like I'll be walking around for a while.

I was walking around for I'd say about 20 minutes before I decided to head to where the party was being held and hoping he was hanging around there. I turned the corner that led to the corridor and I was right Draco was there but he wasn't alone, he was pushed up against a wall by Professor Snape, I wasn't about to be seen so I hid round the corner and tried my best to listen to what was being said.

"Maybe I did Hex that bell girl or maybe I didn't." Draco said, Harry was right it was him. "I swore to protect you, I made an unbreakable vow" Snape said to him. "I don't need Protection, I was chosen for this, out of all the others and I won't fail him." who was he an what was Draco chosen for. I needed to find out what he was hiding and now. I had to make sure Snape didn't see me as he walked past me leaving Draco, I turned the corner hoping to see Draco standing there but he wasn't. I walked in the direction I knew he headed and I knew he couldn't have walked very far. I was correct, I walked into another corridor and found Draco sitting on a bench with his head in his hands, I rushed towards him knowing he needed me. I crouched down Infront of him grabbing his hands to let him know I was there. He slowly looked up at me before standing up and started to walk away. I stood up and yelled but not really yelled "will you stop pushing me away, will you please to talk to me Draco, I know something is wrong and I know something is bothering you, you've been avoiding me and claiming to be busy all the time. I'm meant to be your girlfriend, someone you can talk to, not someone you ignore, please tell me what's wrong" Draco turned around and faced me, I thought he was going to say something but instead he walked to me grabbing my hand and pulling me off down the corridor. We walked or more like I was pulled until we reached the area where we found our room. Again, in the room was a bedroom set up just waiting to be used.
