Shy Away

Platinum

A boy with platinum blonde hair walks in. As soon as he sees me, he smiles. He had his robes on already. He had the prettiest blue grey eyes I have ever seen and his hair was slicked back. "Hi. What's your name?" He says softly. I felt an odd feeling in me then said almost in a whisper " I'm C-Cassidy Falls. Wh- what's your n- name?" I, having not spoken much to anyone, felt funny talking. Therefore I stutter a lot when I do talk. " Me? I'm Draco Malfoy. Have you heard? Harry Potter is coming to Hogwarts." He smirked at me. When I met his soft, icy eyes I couldn't believe they could be such a beautiful color. Wait, what? Why am I obsessing over his eyes? He reached out his hand to me and I took it cautiously and he shook it. " Well, I'm pleased to meet you. Hey... can I call you Sid? It's much easier to say. Sorry if that offends you, but your name is kinda long." I smiled at him. He figured out a new nickname for me. How nice. " S-sure. That's f- fine. It doesn't o- offend me at all... I- I kind of agree. M- my name is l- long. " " Well, I'll see you around, Sid. I gotta go. Bye!" He took one last look at me then slowly walked out of the compartment. What was it that I felt? No, I couldn't possibly have fallen for him. But somehow I couldn't convince myself. All I knew then, was that I had made a friend. The first I'd ever had.
