Two Houses - A Draco Malfoy Fanfic

Chapter 9

-IN HERBOLOGY THE NEXT DAY-
"Woah, woah, woah." I said, glancing up from my Mandrake plant. It was thrashing furiously and wailing, and but I kept my grip on the plant. "Clara, you never told me you were going out with George Weasley." Clara shrugged with a big smile, and went back to her Mandrake, which she had already planted.
"Yeah, Clara, how could you keep this from us?" Autumn prompted, her hands on her hips.
"I didn't know what you guys would say." Clara said absentmindedly. Her attention was on another Mandrake plant that was stubbornly refusing to get into the pot.
"I'm the only single one at this table." Autumn wailed. Her plant was doing it's best to escape her grip, but Autumn wasn't about to defeated that easily.
"I don't believe you are, Autumn. I think you've got a special someone as well, that you're keeping from us." I said. Clara and I exchanged looks.
"Like maybe Brady Tennant, for instance?" I pressed. Autumn's blue eyes widened in surprise.
"How did you know?" She asked, obviously confused.
"We saw you two at the dance together." Clara answered.
"We figured out the rest on our own. Flippin' detective work had to be done! Up top, Clara!" Clara and I high fived, and then turned our attention back to Autumn. She was grinning.
"So, before I went any further. I need confirmation. He is in fact cute, right?" Autumn asked nervously.
"Yeah, definitely!" I answered. "I mean, just in general. I don't like him like that, I promise."
"Agreed." Clara confirmed.
"Hey Sage. Are you still in the friendzone, or have you escaped that dreaded realm of death?" questioned Clara.
"Sago for liiifffeeeee." sing-songed Autumn, waving her Mandrake in the air.
"Ladies." called Professor Sprout. "If you can't concentrate on your studies, perhaps you would like to spend some extra time with me in the greenhouse? In detention?"
"So sorry, Professor Sprout! It won't happen again, I promise!" I called. I gave Autumn my deluxe don't-get-me-in-trouble-darn-it look. She just gave me a cherubic smile, and we all turned back to our wailing Mandrakes.
