My Choice

041

Making my way down to the Dungeons, for an extra Potions class because I had missed the first day. It actually was an accident I had tripped and broken my arm on the way to class and Slughorn had told me I could come and make it up, even though it's been nearly a month and a half. Opening the door I immediately glance around the room looking for Draco since I can so clearly smell his cologne and cigarettes. Yet there is no sign of him in the room. Just three Cauldrons set up, walking up to them I glance in identifying each one, before stopping over the last one. Lifting the lid the smell of Draco's cologne becomes suffocating. Slamming it shut I take a step back putting my hand over my mouth.

"Ah, miss Weasley thank you for coming in. I know we were supposed to go over the first lesson but I have an urgent meeting. So we will just mark it an 'O' and you can leave." Nodding my head I leave the class room before sprinting up the stairs and out into the courtyard.

Setting my books onto the ground and laying down on the bench. Closing my eyes, Amorentia, the potion of love. Smells different to everyone, of course mine smells like Draco. Opening my eyes, I look around the courtyard watching the students rushing around to make it to class. Fuck. Looking down at the ring on my finger I twist it around. Draco and I haven't spoken again since the morning we were in the Great Hall. It's now the beginning of December. Looking back up my eyes land on the Platinum hair that I have been missing. Standing up, I quickly walk over not giving myself a chance to chicken out.

"Malfoy!" I yell, he quickly turns around, a smile appearing on his face but quickly disappearing when he sees my appearance. Having barely eaten in months, just enough to stay standing, has caused me to lose a lot of weight. He shoos Goyle and Crabbe away before turning his attention fully to me.

"How can I help you?" He questions as I come to a stop in front of him.

"I'm tired of this." I say, he gives me a confused look, "Until we figure whatever is happening out. I can't have this." I say pulling the ring off my finger and grabbing his hand and placing it into his palm. His eyes widen as he recognizes the ring.

"What do you think you are doing?" He growls his voice low and threatening.

I feel tears come to my eyes. "Malfoy we haven't spoken in months. I-I'm breaking up with you, if we hadn't said it officially this is me making it official." I say a tear slipping down my face. What the hell am I doing? I literally just smelled in him a love potion and now I'm breaking up with him? Maybe I am as crazy as Bellatrix. "Goodbye Malfoy." I say quietly. Turning away from him, walking over to the bench I grab my books and run out of the courtyard.

Making it to the Room of Requirements, I'm surprised when it appears as a cozy bedroom with a fire place. Throwing the books on the floor I climb into the big bed and break down.

-Blaise's POV-

"Do you know what's going on with them?" Pansy questions, we were both trying to study but we couldn't concentrate the worry for our two best friends have been weighing on us for months.

"I have an idea but neither of them have specifically told me." I say setting my books to the side. "Let's go up to Lily's dorm. She's never there and it's private." She got up with me and we made out way to Lily's dorm after putting a spell on the stairs so I could make it up them without it turning into a slide. Shutting the door I sit on the bed, her room isn't even decorated. "I think Draco was made a death eater over the summer as punishment for his dad." I say quietly Pansy freezes looking at me.

"Are you sure?" She questions, coming to sit on the bed too.

"I feel like I've seen glimpses of the Dark Mark but he hides it pretty well."

"Well Lily wouldn't care if he did, so it doesn't make sense why they aren't talking." Pansy says laying down on the bed putting her hands in the air and staring at them like she's trying to figure out a puzzle.

"Or, and this is a big or because I truly have no clue. What if she took the Dark Mark too? Draco would be pissed. He already thinks he brings the worse out of her." I explain, she sits up suddenly eyes wide.

"That, that would sadly make perfect sense. She would do anything to keep him safe. And if You-Know-Who gave him a mission she would want to help. He would be so mad which explains the tantrum he's throwing."

"So how do we fix it." I question.

"Lock them in a room together?" She questions with a laugh.

"Yeah, I'm not looking to get killed." I say, looking around the room I stand up pulling out my wand and start decorating it how I remember she had in the past. "What if we talk to them, try to get them to see how stupid they are being?" I muse.

"We can try." Pansy says standing up. Suddenly there a knock on the door.

"Pansy I know your in there with Blaise. I don't know what the hell you guys are doing but you are both needed in the Common Room, Malfoy's gone insane." Astoria says through the door. Looking to Pansy we both run to the door and run down the stairs. Draco is standing in the middle of the room the couches flipped and pillows thrown everywhere.

"Mate what the hell are you doing?" I question as I walk over to him. He quickly spins towards me his wand pointed at me and sending me flying backwards.

"What the hell Malfoy!" Pansy screeches as she runs to my side helping me stand up. He glances to both of us, I can now see his eyes are red as if he had been crying. He turns storming up the stairs to the boys dorm, still not saying a word.

"Stay here Pansy." I say, quickly running up the stairs after him, opening the door slightly, surprised he didn't lock it.

"What happened?" I question walking to his bed where he is sitting with his head in his hands.

"She broke up with me." He mumbles, that's when I notice the ring on his finger. Shit, things just got harder or easier for Pansy and I.

"Well you hadn't spoken to her in months." I say sitting next to him.

"I know, I was trying to push her away but now, fuck. I can't lose her Blaise." He says lifting his head looking to me.

"Mate, pretty sure you have." I say, looking to my hands, "But you could probably win her back. You're just going to have to try really hard." He shakes his head standing up and starts pacing.

"This is probably for the better. She better with me gone." He starts mumbling.

"Shut the fuck up dude." His head snaps to me his glare not even scaring me anymore. "You both took the Dark Mark it's too late to push her away to protect her. The best way to protect her is to keep her close." I say giving him a slightly annoyed look, at the thought that he is trying to make this seem okay.

"I-i, what?" He questions face fills with worry.

"I've known you for years and had the honor of being your best mate for nearly two of them. I know you took the Dark Mark. I also know Lils and know she's stupid enough to take it her self so she can protect you. You and your mom are pretty much the only family she has left besides Pansy." I say standing up to walk next to him.

"Don't worry. I don't care that you took the mark. You are still the childish tantrum throwing Malfoy." I say a smile growing on my face as a scowl appears on his face.

"You are as stupid as Lily." He mumbles. Before straightening his back and a look of seriousness veering his face. "Now how do I win her back."

A smile grows on my face, this definitely makes it easier for Pansy and I. "You kill her with romance." I say the smile on my face going from ear to ear.
