chapter 12

When Cara woke up in the morning she had a pounding headache. She didn't really know why she passed out but she decided to blame it on the lack of eating she did yesterday.

Madame Pomfrey came in to check if Cara is still fine and will be able to attend classes.

"I think I'm fine," Cara answered. "I feel fine, a bit hungry, but fine."

"Well that's good," Madame Pomfrey smiled. "Classes have already started but you go get changed into your robes and come back here so I can give you a note to give to your teacher"

Cara walked towards her common room, hearing faint whispers coming from the walls. She couldn't exactly make out what they're saying but they were driving her crazy.

She stepped foot in the common room and immediately relaxed at the familiar sight.

Once she exited her dorm all dressed, Cara checked to see if she had everything she needed.

Wand? Check.
Transfiguration book? Check.
Cauldron? Check.
Phone? Ch-

"Where's my phone? Hmm," Cara entered her dorm again in search of her phone.

She looked everywhere but couldn't find it, she figure it was set on the table next to the hospital bed.

Cara made her way to the hospital, without hearing any voices or whispers this time, wing to receive her note from Madame Pomfrey.

-

She was now sitting in her last class of the day and sadly she couldn't find her phone.

Sitting next to pansy was a pain in the ass, mainly because she wouldn't shut up throughout the whole class. Of course Pansy wasn't talking to her, she was talking with some other Slytherins that were sat behind them.

Class had went by fast and now Cara was packing up, feeling someone stare at her. She turned around to see who it was and saw that it was none other than Draco Malfoy. She smiled in his direction, which made him blush a bit but he quickly turned around, trying to hide his blush.

After she was done packing, she made her way towards the door and out the classroom. She was about to reach for her phone and headphones to play music but then realize she didn't have any of that.

"Hey," someone said beside her. She glanced at said person and smiled.

"Hi Draco."

"Uh-um how are you feeling?"

"Better now," Cara answered. "Bit hungry since I still haven't eaten."

"We could sneak into the kitchen to get something to eat for you!" Draco exclaimed, this is probably the happiest anyone has ever seen him and he realized that which made him collect himself and put on a blank look.

"But won't we get in trouble?" Cara wondered. She didn't want to get in trouble, she didn't like it.

"Maybe, but I'd get in trouble for you," Draco realized what he said and tried to recover himself. "I-uh-I mean I would help you not get caught."

Cara giggled. How sweet. "Thank you, Drey."

"Drey?" Draco asked.

"It's a nickname," she realized what Draco meant when he repeated what she called him. "Oh you don't mind do you? If you're not ok with it then I can call you by your name."

"No, no I think it's sweet. You can call me that." Draco half smiled.

-

The two of them stood outside the kitchen, watching out for anyone that might get them in trouble.

"Wait here, I'll go in," Draco whispered.

"Are you sure? I can go in if you'd like or we can wait till dinner." Cara whispered back.

"Now where's the fun in that?" Draco smirked. He had a point.

He made sure no one was looking and quickly snuck in behind the door, shutting it quietly. Draco came back out after a couple of minutes, his hands carrying a lot of food.

"I said I was hungry but not that hungry," laughed Cara as she helped Draco carry the food.

"Well you're not the only one who's hungry."

They both made their way to the great hall, which was basically empty except for a couple first and second years. They sat at the nearest table, across from each other.

Both of them ate in peace, making small talk every now and then. Cara liked Draco's company, he could be sweet and nice when he wasn't trying to keep up a reputation.

-

After dinner, Cara hung out in the common room not really doing anything, just passing time until she was able to fall asleep.

"Hello, Cara," a faint, airy voice spoke. Luna.

"Hey Luna, what are you up to?"

"I couldn't sleep," Luna sat next to Cara. "And I'm guessing neither could you."

Cara shook her head no. Either she felt dizzy and would pass out or she couldn't even close her eyes. Tonight was the latter.

"Can we listen to you know those bands you like? I've become quite fond of them," Luna asked hopefully.

"Sure. Sounds like a good idea-wait I lost my phone," Cara frowned. "I don't know where I left it."

Luna nodded in understandment, "We could just talk."

They both talked for hours until Luna fell asleep right next to Cara. Cara stayed awake throughout the whole night, not being able to get any rest at all.
