Placing the dove into the cabinet and shutting the door. I lift my wand pointing it at the cabinet and saying the incantation, I slowly open the door to see the Dove gone. Shutting the door again I wait a few minutes before seeing a small light come through the keyhole. Opening the door again, my eyes land on the dead dove. Slowly reaching down I wrap it in a blanket. Tears slipping down my check as I place it into a wooden box. Placing it to the side. Looking to the time, groaning as I realize I'm running late to the stupid Christmas party.
Quickly making my way to the Potion professors classroom, I'm able to sneak in without anyone noticing and making my way to Blaise and Pansy who are in the corner snickering at other guests. "Well look who finally showed up." Pansy says with a smile on her face.
"Had to go for a smoke before this damned party." I lie.
Pansy rolls her eyes and takes a drink from her glass. "Has anything fun even happened?" I question.
"I mean watching Granger run away from McLaggen is pretty fun." Blaise jokes, pointing towards a curtain next to Potter. Glancing over I watch him step behind the curtain, before Granger slips out and McLaggen stick his head in.
"Why would she even ask him here as her date?" I question, not really expecting an answer.
"Apparently to make Weasley jealous." Pansy answers, Blaise and I snap our heads to Pansy with questioning looks, who just shrugs. "I like to gossip."
I'm about to say something when suddenly Slughorn appears in front of us. "Lily! Come join us for a photo! I take one with every student." He says loudly clearly drunk already. Grimacing I walk with him so we are in front of the camera. Patting down the long green dress and making sure the sleeves were covering my arm. Pulling the curls behind my ear I give a smile to the camera.
Suddenly the doors are slammed open, Filch came in holding Draco by the collar of his suit jacket. "Professor Slughorn, sir! I've
just discovered this boy lurking in an upstairs corridor. He claims to have been invited to your party." Filch sneers.
Draco opens his mouth to say something when his eyes land on me, his eyes soften as he glances behind me. "He's her date." I hear Blaise say behind me. Looking behind him I give him a questioning look. Before turning around to Slughorn whose looking at me.
"I- uh, yeah he's my date it was last minute sorry for not letting you know professor." I say quietly. Filch let Draco go, taking a step away from Filch and straightening his jacket.
"Alright, thank you Filch you are no longer needed." Slughorn says, before turning to Draco, "Let's get a photo of the two of you!" He exclaims grabbing my arm. Pulling us together and taking the photo, we barely had time to smile. He quickly leaves us alone afterwards to talk to some other guests.
"What are you doing here?" I question, as I turn to him with a cold look.
"I'm your date, remember?" He says, a smile growing on his face as he looks me up and down. "You look beautiful by the way."
"No, I'm not doing this Malfoy." I say turning away and walking to Blaise.
"Mr.Malfoy, Miss Evadanne may I speak to you out in the hallway." The cold voice of Snape startles me, turning to him I look to Draco who gives him a glare but we both follow him out. Once out in the hallway he quickly turns on Draco. "Did you hex Miss Bell?" He questions annoyed.
"Maybe I did hex that Bell girl. Maybe I didn't. What's it to you?" Draco sneers pushing Snape away from him.
"I swore to protect you both. I made the Unbreakable Vow-" Snape says looking to the both of us.
"We don't need protection. We were chosen for this! Out of all others. Us! And we won't fail him." Draco says coming over and taking my hand to pull us away. I freeze pulling my hand from his grasp. As Snape looks at us, a sort of sad look.
"You're afraid, Draco. You attempt to conceal it, but it's obvious. Let me assist you-" Snape says taking a step closer to us.
"No!" I shout, surprising the two. "You know how upset he would be if he found out you helped! Just stay away it's safer for both of us." I say turning and walking away from the both of them. I was halfway to the Common Room when Draco caught up to me and grabs my arm.
"Stop ignoring me." He says lowly, holding my wrist tightly like I'm gonna run away, which I would if I could.
"You don't tell me what to do Malfoy." I say trying to yank my hand from his grasp, he tightens his hold stepping closer to me, taking a step back I run into the wall. Sighing I look down to my wrist he's holding, the ring sitting on his ring finger. "What do you want?" I question looking up to him trying to keep up a cold front.
"To talk." He says.
"Another night. Please Malfoy, I just need some sleep." I say trying to get out of his grasp again.
"No I want to talk now." He demands, looking to him, I realize I'm seeing only a blurred version of him. Closing my eyes I try to get rid of the nausea. Opening my eyes, I know they aren't filled with tears but my head was pounding as my vision continued to blur. I can seem the outline of his mouth moving before his hand lets go of my wrist, I can feel him grab my waist just as everything goes black.
