Helen
I walked through the grounds by myself. It was a little odd.
"Helen!" I heard Draco say. I looked around.
"Up here!"
I looked up. Draco was sitting in a tree.
"How did you get up there?" I asked.
Draco smirked, "you'll never know darling."
I shook my head.
"Come up Darling!" He said, extending his hand.
I took it, and he pulled me up.
I sat next to him in the crook of the tree.
"Here," Draco said. He handed me a pin.
"What is this?" I asked. I turned the pin, it said 'support Cedric Diggory' and then it changed to 'Potter stinks' I giggled.
"How did you make these?" I asked.
"You're asking a lot of questions darling." He said, smirking.
I looked through the leaves at the pretty scenery.
"It's so pretty up here." I said.
"Yeah, it is." He said, staring at me.
I saw Harry in the distance, "oh look, there's Harry." I said pointing.
Draco smirked, "I have an idea." He waited for Harry to get close, "Hey Potter!"
"What do you want Malfoy?" Harry asked.
"My father an I have a bet." He started, "I think you won't last ten more minutes in this." He jumped out of the tree, "he disagrees, he thinks you wont last five." His goons started snickering.
"Shut up Malfoy." Harry said.
Draco opened his mouth to say something, when Moody turned him into a white ferret. I gasped, and jumped down from the tree. Moody started making Draco float up and down.
I caught Draco, and stroked him gently. Harry was laughing. I was trying to think of a spell to turn Draco back, when McGonagall arrived.
"Is that a student!?" She said, gesturing at Draco-ferret.
I nodded, "professor Moody turned Draco into a ferret!" I said, holding Draco-ferret out.
"Put him down Miss Granger, I'll change him back." McGonagall said.
I put Draco-ferret down, and McGonagall waved her wand. Draco turned back into a boy, and he stood up.
"My father will hear about this!!" He said to Moody. Moody flinched his wand, and Draco ran away.
"Thanks Professor." I said to McGonagall.
"Not a problem dear. Now, you might want to go calm Mister Malfoy down." She said, patting my shoulder.
I nodded, and ran after Draco.

Draco
I was at the black lake pacing and grumbling. How dare Moody do that! I don't even think he's allowed to do that.
"Draco? Are you okay?" Helen asked. I looked at her, she looked so worried.
"I'm okay." I said.
Helen walked over, and touched my hand softly. "Are you sure?"
I paused, "yeah... I'm okay."
She smiled, "I'm glad."
I took her hand, and pulled her close. "I'm okay now that you're here." I said.
She blushed.
I put my hand on her cheek, and brushed my thumb softly.
Her breath hitched.
"Do you like it when I do this?" I asked, smirking.
She pulled away, "no!" She said.
"You're really bad at lying." I laughed.
She looked away, her face was really red now.
"Come on, let's get back to the castle," I said, holding out my hand. She took it, and we walked back to the castle.

Helen
Draco and I were studying in the library again.
"I have an idea for you," Draco said.
"What?" I asked.
"I'll ask you six questions, and for each one you get right, I'll give you a reward." He said.
"Okay..." I said sceptically.
Draco smirked, "don't worry, you're going to like it," he winked.
Draco started asking different questions about potions.
"Well, you got four out of the six correct. That means you get four rewards." Draco said.
"Okay," I said.
"Ready?" He asked.
I nodded.
He kissed my cheek, then my forehead, then my other cheek.
My eyes got wide, and I could feel my cheeks heating up.
Draco's eyes landed on my lips, and I stood up.
"I-I, I can't." I said.
Draco stood up as well, "what's wrong darling?"
"I'm not worth this." I shook my head, "I'm not nearly as pretty as my sister or even Pansy. I'm not as smart as Hermione, or you. I'm not kind like Hermione, and I'm not mean like some of the other people. I'm so stupid and dumb and ugly, and I don't deserve you, or Pansy, or even Hermione!" Tears started rolling down my cheeks.
"Helen..." Draco said. He started walking towards me, and I started walking backwards away from him. I hit a wall of bookshelves, and Draco wiped my tears, "Helen, you are the most beautiful woman I've ever seen. You are so smart, and kind, and you deserve the world." He paused, "I don't deserve you..." he mumbled.
"What?" I asked.
"Nothing," he said.
I looked down, "I don't deserve anyone..." I mumbled.
Draco put his finger under my chin, and lifted my chin to make me look at him. He wiped more tears away with his thumb. He pulled me closer, inching his face closer as well.
"You're perfect." He whispered. Our lips met, and my brain exploded with thoughts and feelings. My stomach was doing acrobatic routines.
Draco pulled away, and put his forehead on mine. I didn't know what to say, my heart was beating so fast.
Draco smiled, "that was four, no more."
I giggled. Draco rolled his eyes jokingly, and kissed me softly again.
"Wow five! I'm so lucky." I said.
"Don't ruin the moment darling," he said.
I looked away, my cheeks were heating up like crazy.
"Do you like the award system?" He asked.
I looked at him again, "I suppose it will work." I said.
"Suppose?" He asked, "maybe you didn't get the message," he smirked, and kissed me again. He pulled away, "don't ever say those things again," he said.
"I won't." I said. I looked at the time.
"It's late, I should go." I turned around to leave.
"Let me walk you back darling," Draco said. He wrapped his arm around me, and we started walking back to my dorm.
"Good night princess," he said, kissing me softly.
I felt my face get hot again, and my stomach was doing backflips.
"Good night ferret." I said, kissing his cheek.
Draco smirked, "don't call me ferret!"
"You love it!" I said. Punching his arm gently.
"I love you..." he mumbled.
"What?" I asked pretending not to hear.
"You heard me. You're really bad at lying you know! Anyways, I'll see you tomorrow!" He said, kissing my forehead, and then walking away.
I watched him walked away, and then I went into the Hufflepuff dormitories.
Cedric was sitting by the fire.
"There you are! Why were you out so late?" He asked, standing up.
"I was studying and lost track of time," I said yawning.
"Was it with anyone?" He asked.
I paused, "yes..." I said slowly.
"Who?" Cedric pressed.
"That, is none of your business!" I said, "now if you'll please excuse me, I'm going to bed!" I started walking away.
Cedric grabbed my arm, "will you go to the Yule Ball with me?" He asked.
"No." I said flatly. I pulled my arm away, and walked to my room.
I flopped on my bed, and let all my emotions and thoughts scramble around in my head. I groaned, what was Draco doing to me?!
I got changed, and went to bed extremely confused.
