Detention

I AWOKE TO THE SUN Beaming through my curtains as I slowly opened my eyes to look next to me.

Draco had disappeared and all that was left was the messed up sheets.

I yawned well standing up to stretch as a soft peck clicked against my window. 

My eyes peered to the window seeing my owl holding a dark purple envelope in her beak as her eyes locked with mine, I'd recognize those colours anywhere.

I slowly dragged myself to the window pulling up the glass as my owl dropped the letter into my hand before flying off into the soft blue sky.

I sat on my bed tearing the envelope open, slowly pulling out the paper the scent of fresh parchment filling the room.

My fingers skimmed against the fresh ink before I began to read.

Dear, Arabella

Your father and I have important business to attend at the Malfoy Manor and we would like you to join us. We have reached out to Dumbledore already and have made arrangements about you skipping out on a few days of school, hope to see your lovely face.

Sincerely, your dear mother.

Malfoy Manor..

Why there?

Does Draco know about this?

My thoughts started taking over my head as worry filled my body from the inside out.

My parents never tell me to attend their 'business meetings', their always hiding what their about even though I'm convinced it has to do with the dark lord.

I noticed I was late for class so I quickly got my shit together and headed to potions.

I flew open the door attempting to catch my breath as I heard a quite grunt from across the room.

"Late again Mrs. Rowel." Snape hissed.

"Er- just give me a damn break will you." I shouted letting my anger take over me as multiple heads turned to look at me with shock.

"I- I mean-" I began.

"Detention after school Mrs Rowel no excuses! Now sit down." He said his voice laced with anger before he continued his class.

I peered around the room searching for an open seat to noice the blonde boy with Blaise and Pansy and a empty seat that was now going to be mine.

I sat down next to Draco pulling out my books before looking up at the front.

"You alright?" He whispered into my ear making me shiver.

"I- I'm fine." I responded keeping my head up.

"Are you sure?" He asked again pressing my buttons.

"I'm sure-" I said feeling overwhelmed.

I took a deep breath before a cold hand sat on top of my bare thigh making my eyes shoot down to see a familiar pale hand.

"Uhm.. Draco what are you doing?" I asked as red filled my face.

"What are you talking about?" He asked with a smirk.

"What the hell do you mean "what am I talking about"? Your hands on my thigh." I stated trying to not blush harder then I already was.

"Mr. Malfoy and Mrs. Rowel would you like to share your conversation with the class?" Snape asked sending a glare towards us.

"Um-" I began just to get cut off.

"Oh bloody hell buzz off will ya?" Draco snapped as Snapes glare intensified if possible.

"Fine Mr. Malfoy you'll be joining Mrs. Rowel in detention." He growled as Draco stood up packing up his bag.

"Suits me." He said before putting his mouth next to my ear once again.

"See you in detention love." He smirked before leaving the class.

He has got to stop doing that.

.

The end of the day came close as I mentally prepared for what Snape wanted us to do in detention, you never know with that man.

I slowly walked to his room dreading for the next few hours.

"Mrs Rowel, pleased to see you made it." He said as I sat on top of a desk.

"Mhm." I responded dryly.

A few minutes passed before he asked "do you know if Mr. Malfoy will show?"

"Not sure." I said rolling my eyes as the door opened making me turn my head to see the tall boy.

"Your late Mr. Malfoy." Snapped Snape as he waited for him to take a seat.

"Great, now that you're both here you can get to it. I need you to make this room spotless by the end of the night." He said walking towards the door. Really that's it?

"And no magic." He finished before slamming the door shut.

"Fuckk.." I growled putting my hands through my hair.

I began cleaning before I noticed the deep silence flow through the room making me turn to see Draco with a small book in his hand as his eyes followed along with the black inked words.

"Bloody hell Draco will you fucking help me?" I hissed not having time for his antics.

He glanced up at me, "no." He flatly said looking back down to his book.

"Fine-" I said storming towards him, plucking the leather book out of his cold hands.

"Give it back." He said making eye contact with me.

"Well how the tables have turned." I smirked as he stood up towering over me.

"You know Arabella.." he said smirking walking towards me as I walked back.

"It doesn't take me much to get what I want." He finished as my back hit a cold stone wall.

"I don't care." I responded trying to sound confident.

"Oh, is that so." He purred bringing his lips down to my neck.

He placed a kiss on my collar bone slowly moving up to the side of my neck, then my jaw, and finally right next to my mouth.

My breath hitched and were heavy as I craved for his touch and the feeling of his lips. What has gotten into me.

He rested his forehead on mine making our noses touch and our lips centimetres apart.

"Do you want me to kiss you?" He asked smirking.

"Y-" I began before he plucked the book out of my hand to return back to reading, leaving me in shock.

"Your such a tease." I scoffed before getting back to work feeling his piercing eyes on my back the rest of the time being.
