A few days have passed since I last looked at Draco in the library.
I tried my best not to think of him, but it was hard when he was apart of our friend group, though he wasn't around a lot. He skips classes and meals, the only time you see him now is in the common room or occasionally in the corridors.
I feel his stare on me now and again when we pass each other, but I look down. I won't be one of his whores or a secret fling.I know my worth. I know I deserve to be loved and for someone to not be ashamed they love me, or to be seen with me.
It was a Friday and when classes were finished for the day, I got invited to Hogsmead by the gang, "I'm going to go shower, I'll meet you down there?"
"Promise you'll come this time??", Rae came over, giving me a hug to which I hugged her back.
"Yes okay", I rolled my eyes as she squealed.
"Bye Lay", Blaise waved, as so did Rae.
"See you in a bit", I waved back.I took the long way back to the common room, exploring the castle a bit, admiring the paintings and the architecture. It really was a beautiful school.
I came to a hault as I heard whispers. I recognised the voices. I crept towards the wall, peeping around the corner which led to a dark smaller corridor.
There I saw Pansy and Draco?"She's not who she says she is Draco!" Pansy whisper shouted, shoving her hands into his shoulders, making him take a step back. Are they talking about me?
"You don't know a thing Pansy!" Draco spat back, grabbing her by the shoulder and almost lifting her into the room behind them.
My eyes widened, I had to know what was going on. I tiptoed towards the door, noticing the Merlin's hat engraved in the door, 'great' I thought, this is the boys abandoned bathroom. I rolled my eyes and I continued trying to listen through the doors."What the fuck is your problem Pansy?"
"I don't want you to get hurt!"
Hurt? I wouldn't hurt Draco, not without a good excuse at least. I felt my blood boil that she was talking about me.
"Hurt?" I heard Draco laugh, "Don't be ridiculous", I heard him scoff through the door.
"Draco.. I.. I care for you.. I always have", I heard her whisper.
No words were spoken for what felt like years. What is going on?"Pansy get the fuck off me!"
"Draco please.."
"Pansy get off-"
That's when I barged through the door. My wand pointing towards them both.
Pansy was clung onto Draco, her hands taking a fist full of his shirt. He was leaning back against the sink, hands in the air."Speak of the devil and they shall appear" Pansy smirked, releasing herself off him.
"You don't scare me, Layla Doyle.. if that is your name of course", she slowly began walking towards me. I kept my wand up pointing at her."Don't make me use it Pansy, I've had it up to hear with you!" I spat.
She laughed which made my face twist with anger.
She reached into her back pocket quickly and took out her wand, pointing it at me. "You don't want to do this Pansy", I pleaded, only worried for her.
"What if I do?" she challenged.
"Stupify!"
I blocked it with my wand.
"Pansy, stop!" Draco shouted.
"Listen to him, Pansy, for your own sake!" I almost screamed, not wanting to cast a spell.
"Scared to fight back?", she walked towards me raising an eyebrow.
"I'm not afraid of you Pansy... I'm afraid for you", I smirked at her.
