Imperfect Love || Draco Malfoy

| Chapter 22: Writing on the Wall |

Tapping on the table as you sat there with Hermione who was studying like always. The two of you always studied. That was how you both bonded your friendship just by studying. You were getting bored and you didn't really plan on spending your whole free period in studying.

Looking around the great hall. You saw some of the students hanging around to study or do their homework. The great hall was filled with little chatters as everyone was busy with their own thing. Your eyes kept wandering the great hall having the urge to find a familiar figure. The teensy weensy crush still not fading away and now you were in his circle of friends. Seeing each other more often then normal. No one knew of this new found crush you had on Malfoy. A secret that you would like to keep for as long as you can because this feelings were gonna lead to disastrous events.

You wanted this feelings to go away. If only he didn't hold your hand in those times but then you were glad you did. You wanted the feelings to go away but at the same time you wanted it to stay. It gave you peace, happiness and something to look forward to whenever you got up in the morning or went to bed. The only bad thing is that your crush was directed to a Malfoy. Your arch nemesis.

The urge to find a familiar platinum slick back hair was gone when you notice Ron. A smile forming on your lips as you nudge Hermione who looked up with a questioning gaze.

"Ron is here. Come on, we planned to meet with Harry to watch him practice" You grabbed your books and Hermione did the same as the two of you ran up to Ron.

"Let me guess studying?" Ron asked rolling his eyes.

"Yup"

"Yes"

"You two are boring. No wonder, no one wants to date you" Ron said earning you to glare at him.

"I could easily get a man to go weak on his knees for me" You said confidently

"Wow, confident" Ron rolled his eyes earning a smack from Hermione

"That is rude, Ronald. You will not bring down a girls confidence in herself" Hermione scolded and you wore your signature smirk. Ron sighed looking at you.

"You always win" Ron groaned knowing he can never win with you and especially when you always had Hermione on your side.

"Oh.. This wont end well" You and Ron looked at where Hermione was looking and she was looking at the courtyard to see the Gryffindor Quidditch Team and the Slytherin Quidditch Team standing there in front of each other. Both wearing their Quidditch Uniforms.

The three of you walking forward to see what it is all about.

"Where do you think you're going, Flint?" Oliver Wood asked the Captain of the Slytherin Quidditch Team who was Marcus Flint.

"Quidditch Practice" Flint answered

"I booked the pitch for Gryffindor today" Oliver said not liking what was happening. It clearly looked like a show down between two gangs.

"Easy, Wood. I've got a note" Flint holds out a paper that was rolled up like a scroll. Oliver takes it and opens it, reading what was written down.

"I smell trouble" Ron said. The three of you walking more close and standing beside Harry.

"I, Professor Severus Snape, do hereby give the Slytherin team permission to practice today, owing to the need to train their new Seeker." Oliver said looking up from the note, confused written all over his face.

"You've got a new Seeker, who?"

Flint steps aside, and Draco steps out towards the Gryffindor team members. His walk was in a swag matter while he held a broom in his left hand. Watching this entrance of him was unexpected that it made your heart jump in excitement at the sight of him. You haven't seen him all day and it made you excited.
