As time goes by (a Harry Potter fanfic based on the goblet of fire)

Chapter three

Millie's POV
Chapter 3
I was at the forbidden forest with Hagrid and Draco due to the fact we both got detention for making a mess in transfiguration.

Bloody hell, I thought. Detention with the person I hate the most.

It was still daytime although, it was quite dark around the forbidden forest, probably because there are many trees. I barely could even see any sunlight.

As for Draco, he didn't really want to come here as he was complaining about what happened when we were eleven. But it was his fault after all.

I was walking around alone since all three of us split up.

I'm not actually sure what we're looking for. All Hagrid said was if we find anything suspicious, we have to send green signals and if anything bad happens, we have to send red signals.

After awhile I heard a twig snap. I flinched. I checked behind the tree bu here was nothing there so I ignored it.

The next thing I know, I was being chased by a vampire.

I thought, 'Wow, how great life is.'

I was waving my wand up in the air, sending red signals.

I ran and ran until suddenly, I bumped into a solid figure.

"Draco!" I said as it came out a bit like a squeak.

He pointed his wand towards the vampire whilst I continued to wave my wand up in the air.

The vampire then took a step closer as my wand was now pointed at the vampire whilst Draco was now sending red signals.

"Don't take another step! I'm warning you!" I said, stiffening up.

I took a step closer to the vampire, wand still up, as the vampire took a step back.

"That's better." I said, my head held high.

"What's your name?" The vampire asked with a smirk.

"Margaret Harris." I answered, still shaking but now with a bit of confidence in my voice, sweat glands forming on my palms,

"What about him?" the vampire asked, his gaze turning to Draco's direction who looked a bit frightened.

Man up, Draco, I thought to myself.

"Him? His name?" I said, faking a laugh. "Trust me, you wouldn't want to know that." I replied, looking back at Draco.

"Perhaps your hiding something." The vampire said, walking towards me.

"Don't go near her." Draco managed to say without stuttering.

Hagrid finally appeared.

"Hagrid!" I exclaimed, relief forming on my face.

Mine and Draco's wands were still pointed towards the vampire.

"Hm.. I see you've got some company." The vampire said. "Well, see you around Margaret..." He said as he ran off.

"Margaret, aye. Yer a clever thinker, you are." Hagrid said thoughtfully. "And what was yer name, Draco?" He asked Draco.

"Well, I didn't give him my name." He said with a small chuckle.

I laughed. "I was thinking of calling you Thomas Brown." I said, laughing as Hagrid laughed along.

Draco knotted his eyebrows. "Thomas Brown? Who do you think I am?" He asked, frustrated.

"I think you're Thomas Brown." I said, ruffling his hair and laughing as he got even more frustrated.

Draco groans. "Two can play it that game, Margaret." He said with a smirk, nudging me.
