Day 9; Draco Malfoy; Ice Ice Baby

( i apologize for the name i couldn't help it)

"Are you sure this is a good idea?" Draco Malfoy asked nervously.

     I was already skating on the ice of the Black Lake, waving to him.  "Of course it is!" I said, laughing, "Don't worry - I won't let you fall!"

     He frowned at me.  "The ice won't break, will it?"

     "Of course not!"  I stuck my tongue out at him, taunting.  "I bet your dad wouldn't want to hear that his son was too afraid to go ice skating!"

     "Shut up, y/n!"  Draco took a deep breath, stepped one foot out on the ice, and almost fell.

     I was clutching my sides with laughter as I skated up to him.  After I finally regained my breath, I said, "Here.  Hold my hand."

     Reluctantly, Draco took my hand and I helped him out on to the ice.  He kept getting his legs tangled up with each other and stumbling, but despite my telling him that it would make skating easier, he refused to go any faster.

     "Come on, Draco, it's fun.  Just let go a bit and enjoy yourself."

     He rolled his eyes grumpily but let go of my hand and tried skating on his own.  I cried out triumphantly when I saw a little smile on his face.

     "See!  I told you you would like ice skating!"

     "I still think hot cocoa in the common room would've been more fun."

     "Yeah right!" I said, skating up to him and kissing him on the cheek, "Anyhow, there's time for that later."  I snatched his hat off the top of his head and he protested loudly.  "I'll give it back to you if you can catch up to me!"

     I cackled as I skated away, knowing full well he wouldn't be able to catch me, but that I would give him the hat back as soon as he promised to come out and skate with me more often.
