Hush Little Baby

Chapter 24.

~ Raelyns POV~

It was 3 days later and Layla still hasn't got out of bed. Her side of the room is starting to fill with balls of tissue on her bed, the floor and her lockers. Not to mention she stunk. I laughed to myself thinking that in a years time Layla will look back and laugh.

I liked Malfoy, to an extent. I knew he loved Layla. I never saw him act that way towards a girl. But Layla was my best friend and right now, I hated him.

I mean, I understood how it looked from Malfoys perspective, but Draco should know by now, she wouldn't hurt him, not like that especially.

I walked into Potions, giving the blonde boy a death glare as I walked past him, heading for my seat.

He looked tired, like he hadn't slept, his hair wasn't slicked back like normal, it was messy, like not washed in a few days messy. I rolled my eyes at the sight of him. "Pathetic" I said to myself but loud enough for him to hear me as I sat down.

"What did you say? Mudblood?" He spat from the row of seats across from me.
"I said you're fucking pathetic Draco Malfoy!" As I slapped my book shut.

The people around us gasped and let out sniggers.
"That's enough!" Snape swung around.

I used to love potions until Snape started teaching. Honestly, why did Slughorn have to retire so suddenly?

I rolled my eyes and scoffed, turning away from the blonde boy. I opened back up my book and tried my hardest to focus, but even being in Dracos presence right now made me furious.

"Class dismissed." Snape dryly spoke, after what felt like days being stuck in that class room.

"Raelyn!" Draco grabbed my arm, as I was walking back to the direction of the dorms.

"What?!" I spat, stopping in my tracks.

"How is she?"

I rolled my tongue against the inside of my cheek. He did not just ask that.

I grabbed him by the scruff and pushed him through the nearest door I could find.
Thank Merlin this room was empty.

"You don't get to ask that! You don't get to ask how she is!" I shouted at him.

"Why the fuck not?!" He came closer.

"You broke up with her?!" I threw my hands up, reminding him.

"I know that.. fuck." He ran his hands through his hair. He picked up a stool a threw it a few feet away.

"Being angry won't solve anything Malfoy!" I spat in his direction as he walked the class room.

"She was with fucking Potter!" He yelled at me.

"Not like that you twat!" I yelled back.

"How then? First I catch them in the corridor and his fucking hand was on her thigh! Then a few weeks later I catch them coming from the Room of Requirment? She's been leaving dinners early and I haven't seen her around some evenings! Explain that!" He ranted, kicking around stools and throwing books off tables.

"If you calm the fuck down I'll tell you!"

He stopped moving. "Tell me what?" He walked towards me.

"You have to promise not to mention Laylas name to Umbridge when I tell you this.. or mine!" I raised my hand, holding out my pinky.

"For fucks sake Raelyn!" Draco spat but walked towards me, shaking my pinky with his. "You're a fucking child." He muttered as he sat on the only stool that wasn't out of place.
