Draco was absently doodling on his parchment in Transfiguration. McGonagall may be the headmaster now, but her teaching was still extremely, absolutely, unnecessarily dull. Draco's quill seemed to drag itself, scribbling curly-ques and swiggles and whatever-that-is. A piece of paper, like a floating butterfly, gently eased itself onto his desk. The note unfurled magically and laid flat on the table so that Draco could read it.
Hi ♥
--HG
Hermione Granger, Draco thought. He turned around when McGonagall wasn't looking and saw Hermione staring at him. She smiled. Draco smiled back eagerly and turned to write his reply.
Coming up with a proper reply was the hardest thing Draco'd done. Ever. 'Hello?' No, no, too formal. 'Hullo?' No way. 'Good morning?' It's two in the afternoon. Draco thought on and on, pondering greeting after greeting. He finally settled on one.
Hi
--DM
He thought it was plain. Too plain. But he'd already written it. Reciting a spell in his mind, he held the paper in his hands and blew it away. It fluttered lazily for half a second, and then turned into a beautiful paper bird, flapping its wings and flew straight onto Hermione's desk.
The conversation continued on for the majority of the class. Eventually, Hermione asked, Want to meet by Hagrid's after class?
Love to.
Fantastic.
Can't wait.
I'll just have to get changed.
You look adorable in what you're wea
"I'll take that, Mr. Malfoy." McGonagall leaned over his desk, snatching the slip of parchment from Draco's hands. She walked up to the center of the room, clutching the paper and preparing to read it aloud. Draco, wide-eyed, said, "Please--"
"'Hi,' said by HG. Miss Granger, is that you? Mr. Malfoy said in reply, 'Hi.' Riveting conversationalists, you two are."
And with that, McGonagall read aloud the once personal conversation between the two. Draco was horrified. Girls giggled and boys nudged Draco, but he felt nor heard none of it. The entire class had trained their eyes on Draco and Hermione.
They all knew.
