As Draco paced around the moving branches of the Whomping Willow, he mused over everything that had happened that day.
Waking up next to the most beautiful woman in the world.
Sneaking back to his dormitory room.
Breakfast. Care of Magical Creatures. Charms. Lunch. Divination.
Preparing for the Quidditch Match.
Draco, doing a ten backflips in a row.
The audience, screaming.
Ginny, falling fifty feet through the air.
The audience, screaming.
Draco, not even thinking about the consequences as he caught Ginny.
The audience, screaming.
Ginny, being carried away.
Talking to Blaise.
Running.
Stupefying Granger. Talking to Granger.
Draco slapped his hands hard against his head as he recalled that Granger knew about Ginny and Draco.
"Hey!" he heard a male voice yell, and turned, wand out, to see Potter racing towards him.
"Expelliarmus!" Potter cried, as Draco dodged it.
Holding his arms in the air, Draco called "I'm here on Dumbledore's orders, Potter, not to cause trouble."
"Yeah, right," Potter hissed scathingly, shooting another spell at Draco. Dodging, Draco rolled onto the floor to avoid another jet of sparks.
"Potter, stop! Dumbledore wants me to help you find Valence!"
After waiting ten seconds, Draco raised his head slowly to see Potter's shocked expression. "Dumbledore told me to meet you here," Draco added, breaking the unnerving silence.
"Fine," Potter muttered, taking off his glasses and cleaning them on the edge of his robes. One bad move, Malfoy," Potter warned, pointing his wand at Draco. Sighing quietly, Draco replied sarcastically, "Lead the way."
Fingers twitching as if he was yearning to pick up his wand and Avada Kedavra Draco, Potter jumped over a moving branch and grabbed a large stick. "Come on!" he called. Draco nimbly followed, arrowly avoiding a murderous branch on the way.
Poking the stick in a hole in the Whomping Willow, Draco's jaw dropped open as the entire tree stilled, as if... as if it were a normal tree.
"Come on," Potter repeated, jumping down a trap door. Shaking his head disbelievingly, Draco followed, down a slide of dirt and darkness.
