Mavis

I was in potions seating alone in the back since Malfoy didn't showed up at this class. It was a relief not seeing him today since no one is going to bug me and no one is cocky today

As I stirred the ingridients in the cauldron the doors flew open, we saw a rather odd looking old man in a slytherin uniform angrily walking in the room.

Oh bloody hell

It's Malfoy.

"What in merlin's beard happened to you?" I asked bursting into laughter soon the class joined in the laughter. Malfoy looked like my grandfather who was about to burst into anger at any moment when he pointed me

"YOU!" The laughter died and all eyes stared on me. I looked at him and raised both of my hands

"I swear I didn't do anything!" I defended. Backing a little

"You did this do me didn't you? YOU tricked me again! And yet I have done NOTHING against you!" He yelled at me

"You're accusing me for the things that I didn't even do! I dont even care about your existence why blame me you foul git!" I yelled back.

"Why you little–" He lounged at me before I knew it the content in our cauldron poured on my right arm making me scream in agony.

He looked a bit startled and begun to panic. Half of the students rushed to my side while the others called professor Snape

"Mavis! Mavis are you alright?" Hermione rushed to my side taking my arm. I screamed in pain while tears started blur my sight

"We'll take you to the hospital wing, it would be alright" Hermoine said as soon as professor Snape came to my aid.

"You two! I leave for two minutes and this what happens!" Snape scolded us while madame Pomfrey treated my burns

"Severus, dont yell at her. You see that she is on medication right now. Especially Ms. Evans because she was the one who was burnt" Pomfrey said calmly. I gave a sincere smile at Madam Pomfrey. She winked at me saving me from the wrath of Snivellus Snape

Madam Pomfrey announced that I was free to go tomorrow evening because I'll be under some checking  while I heal and I'll be ready to go and good thing she was allowing visitors. Draco on the other hand was still looking like an old man. There were no immediate spells that can make him back to normal according to madam Pomfrey so she told Draco to stay here while she work out on a medication for him.

"Mavis!" George and Fred ran at my direction I smiled seeing my favourite twins. They settled some sweets in my bed and both hugged me. Madam Pomfrey shrieked a little not wanting me to be hurt but I assured her that I was okay.

"You feeling better Mavy?" Fred asked smiling at me

"Mavy I am" I joked

"That's a good one" George laughed and high fived me with my good arm. Then they turned around to see Malfoy in one of the beds

"Wow! What happened to you?" They said simultaneously, not showing any hints that we were the one who was behind all of this

"It's none of your business weasels" Draco spat. Soon the doors flew open to see a worried Pansy

"Drakie pooh! You're alright! Even though you look like an old man I still love you!" She hugged Draco while he struggled to find freedom. The twins and I had the same disgusted looks on our face

"That girl has a serious addiction to Malfoy does she Georgie?" Fred said nudging his brother

"Yeah, she does Freddie" George agreed. Soon we heard Draco shooed Pansy out making her cry again. Draco sighed in relief resting himself on the bed

"Oh Drakie pooh! I luuuv yooouu" George mimicked Pansy making Fred and I howl in laughter

"I'll never get tired of loving you drakie pooh!" Fred cooed making kissy faces at Draco.

We all laught except for Draco who has this old man glare in his face.

Times flew by, the next thing we knew Draco was back to normal and it was past midnight

"Why aren't you asleep?" I looked at Draco who was in the bed beside me.

"I uhm. Cant sleep how about you? It's pretty late"

"Thinking.." He answered. He looked at the window beside us the moon reflecting his silver blue eyes. It was wonderful.

"You have very stunning eyes" I blurted out and quickly covered my mouth

"Falling for me all of a sudden Evans?" He teased chuckling a bit

"No. I wouldn't fall for a old man Malfoy if you know" we both chuckled. it was the first time I heard him laugh and to be honest  with you, his laugh was charming. I don't even know someone who could laugh without sounding stupid.

"Look, I'm sorry for accusing and attacking you Mavis, I feel guilty for doing this to you and now you're hurt" I was shocked when Draco called me in my first name not my last. And I was also surprised to see him worried and caring all of a sudden

"It's okay Draco, I forgive you. Besides I'm all good now" I smiled at him.

"I'm sorry for being such a jerk, you know it's just what people think of me and I have to keep my reputation" He said gazing on the distance

"So all of those are just cover ups in who you really are Malfoy?"

"Well yeah, some of it." He sighed looking at me "So truce?" He asked I smirked at him before grabbing his hand

"Truce."

We've talked for like hours and such we talked about our families, our moments in life, laughing at some point and teasing. He also knew that I lived in the Philippines before moving here and taught him some few words in filipino language. It was quite fun being around him. It was like a new Draco Malfoy was seating beside me. Not the Jerk Malfoy that we all know.

"So you set your classmates arse on fire for getting your muggle device" He asked laughing

"Yeah, he was a total dirtbag, but you're much worst. Kidding!" I said punching his side softly.

"You're so mean Mavis, no wonder why you're a slytherin" He joked

"Look who's talking! The atrocious slytherin prince!" I said we both laughed.

"That's settled then, You're the princess and I'm the prince" he said winking

"Touche my dear friend touche" we high fived. Before I knew it I rested my head on his shoulder yawning.

"Would you like to sleep now Mavs?" He asked I nodded

"Okay then let's get you to sleep goodnight Mavis" he said kissing my forehead, before He left my side returning in his bed

"Goodnight Draco" I said before entering in a deep sleep

*  *  *  * 

"No! Please no!" I shot up when I heard someone yelling and trashing. It came to my senses that it was Draco. I quickly stood up and rushed to his side

"Draco! Draco wake up!" His eyes were wide opened and he took in a sharp breath

"It's okay.. It's okay.. It's just a dream Draco it's just a dream" I cooed rubbing his back

"I-i thought it was real.." He whispered.

"Just go back to sleep yeah? I'll be right here" soon Draco's head hit the pillow while he snored.

I looked at him and studied his features, it was the first time I saw him without me looking away at him. His cheek bones were high and his jawline was outlined in an angle. He looked like an innocent child. But who am I to judge him? He's incredibly a jerk, and sometimes moody too.
