Harry Potter Fanfiction~The Finnigans.

Chapter Twenty One~Slughorn's Christmas Party.

The next evening was Professor Slughorn's Christmas Party. Chloe went with Draco and Shannon went with Harry. Draco and Harry were simple suits and Chloe wore a long black and white laced dress and Shannon wore a knee length baby pink one. They spent the night dancing like idiots. However Chloe realised Draco was very quiet, as if he were hiding something from her. "Are ye alright?" Chloe wondered as she was dancing closely to Draco along to the classical music playing in the background. "Hmm? Oh. Yeah. I'm fine sweet-heart, don't worry about me." He replied. Of course though, she did worry about him. She didn't believe him but she just decided to drop it. "So...yesterday." Draco smirked. Chloe bit her lip and raised her eyebrows before they both burst into laughter. They noticed Shannon and Harry were having seductive eye contact too, they so did it Chloe thought before giggling to herself.

Near the end of the night Draco exited the room quickly in a panic. Confused Chloe ran after him and when she caught up with him, he had a blank expression on his face. "Draco...?" She trailed stopping him to face her. His palms were clammy and sweat poured off his forehead, he looked nervous. He locked his eyes onto hers until saying with a voice full of fright and guilt. "They're here. In the castle. Now. They're expecting me to kill him. Tonight." Chloe knew this was coming, she was not going to let it happen. "Then I'll do anything to stop it. Come on." She answered.
