IWDTLY (A Draco Malfoy Love Story) ... 21 -Part 2-

I live in a gangsta’s paradise too bad I’m a nerd who writes Author’s Notes: I’ve been so distracted lately for numerous reasons: 1) My brother is coming home for a short leave, 2) thespectrum.net is just so fun, 3) Kingdom Hearts (the books not the games) are just too good to not read 4) I’ve been inspired for a few of my others stories, and lastly 5) I have the dreaded writer’s block

I Was Dared to Love You (A Draco Malfoy Love Story)

Chapter 21: Riddle Me This

-Part 2-: Just Following the Plan

--------| Draco’s POV |-------

            Operation DRACO (or Don’t Resist Admitting Current lOve)

            Step One: Ask Answer to Question 55

            Step Two: Ask to Reanswer Said Question

            Step Three:Answer

            Step Four: Kiss Her

            Step Five: Live Happily Ever After

            Step Two of the plan down. Damn Granger was a smart one. She seemed to have calculated every response Violet made! She sure did deserve to become Head Girl instead of that other slut, not that I would admit that to her of course. Granger would hold that against me for the rest of the year. Staring into Violet’s beautiful, knee-weakening, greenish eyes, I noticed her shocked expression.

            “Uh …” she cutely tried to cover up her surprise and cleared her throat quietly. “S-sure, I suppose you could.” Grabbing the parchment from my hands, I watched as she scribbled out my previous answer. How stupid I had been back then! ‘She’s a filthy mudblood, that’s what I think’? What the bloody hell was I thinking? Violet was everything to me, as cliché as that is; I don’t care. When she moved, I too felt the need to move. When she directed her green-blue liquid eyes towards someone else, a deep burning twisted in my gut.

            Jealousy, my head whispered.

            Longing, my heart countered.

            Longing to be whatever it was she was looking at. The small blush Violet so innocently preformed whenever my arm brushed up against hers, caused that puking sensation to come again and by now I figured it was a good thing. The way Violet’s lips had felt against mine, a perfect fit, caused my neck and face to heat, which was a new feeling all together.

            Something loud sounded in my ear and a sharp snap flicked in front of my eyes. Quickly pulling my head away from the noise, I give myself a kink in my neck.

            “Draco! Seriously, I asked you a question!” came the furious voice of Violet Jesperson. Dammit, I zoned out. It wasn’t the first time today either. I’d caught myself sitting down at breakfast wondering how Violet was going to put her hair (in a loose pony tail), what I would say to her, if the plan would work (well, I’m on Step Two so far).

            “Oh, um, so reanswering right? Let’s see … what do I think of my partner? Well, I’d have to say she’s kind of a bitch. Mean, loud, gets what she wants, nice here and there, but you know the type, right?” I smirked at her look of utter repulsion and hidden surprise. Before she could smack me upside the head I continued, “Sometimes though, she flutters her eyes and blushes in this cute little fashion that just makes me want to melt. Pathetic, right? Can’t help it though. I think my partner is easy to be around, if a bit annoying, makes me feel like being a douche ain’t all the bad, and I can’t forget, gorgeous as bloody hell. This one time, I caught her in a dress! A dress! Looked damn good on her, too. Thing is, she forgot her shoes. Maybe it’s a ‘trendy American thing’ but hey! I’m not from America, now am I?” Sighing dramatically, I shake my head back and forth as if answering my own question. “All in all, Violet Jesperson is an all-around American chick that I don’t mind being around.” Internally, I go over what I said and hope nothing shitty came out and it was all coherent. Nodding slightly, I peek at the paper.

            Word for word, it was written on the parchment. Looking up at her face, I grin. Violet’s entire face was beet red. “You done?” came her voice, quiet as a pin drop.

            ‘Not yet,’ I thought to myself. ‘Two Steps to go.’
