"Arthur, I still don't understand what you're talking about.. Neville, a surprise for me? Just a couple days ago, you all hated me.." I say, and Arthur laughs, as he laces his fingers with mine."We didn't hate you, and we still don't. Now come on. We don't want to be late"
We continue running down the halls, getting closer and closer to the Room of Requirement. I feel butterflies in my stomach at the thought of what it could be. We finally reach the 7th floor, but stop suddenly when a blonde male figure steps out from behind a banister, twirling his wand through his fingers.
"Well, well.."
Draco.
I feel my blood run cold, and the goosebumps rise on my skin at the sound of his voice. It sounds so cold and dark in my ears. I take a step closer to Arthur, as he tightens his grip on my hand. Draco looks between the two of us, then down to our fingers, and I swear I saw his jaw tighten.
Serves him right.
"What do you want, Malfoy?" Arthur asks, keeping close to me, as Draco's eyes linger from me to Arthur, then back to me. Draco looks back to Arthur, a sinister smile playing on his pale pink lips.
"Doesn't matter what I want. Never really has, has it?" Draco says, and I pull my brows together in confusion.
What?
I look to Arthur, who's putting on a better face than I am. I look back to Draco, who's eyes leave me again, and look back to Arthur.
"I say, if the Headmaster knew you all were out past curphew, he wouldn't be to pleased. Not to mention the sighting of Potter in the area. He's having us Prefects out on duty to make sure riffraff like you all don't-"
"Wait.." I say, causing both boys to look at me. My eyes never leave Draco as I finish my question, my brows still together at his words. "Did you say they spotted Harry... When?" I ask, and Draco looks from Arthur, back to me.
"Tonight.."
"Where?"
Draco looks back to Arthur, letting out a soft chuckle. "How much have you been keeping from her, Weasley?" Draco says, before looking back to me, pushing his fringe off his forehead. "Snape said that they spotted him, along with the Mudblood and other.." Draco pauses, looking from Arthur to me, before finishing his talk.
'Weasley, around Hogsmeade just shortly after 8:30 tonight" I cringe at the word he calls Hermione (seeing as he called me the same thing), but now look down to my watch that reads 8:45pm, and look back up to Draco, who's glaring at Arthur.
I look to Arthur, who's jaw was clenched, and his eyes dead set on Draco. I swear if he wasn't holding my hand, he would have Draco on the ground, decking him in the face. I look back to Draco, before looking back to Arthur.
"We should be going.." I say, pulling on Arthur's hand that's still intertwined with mine. Draco laughs, stepping infront of me, blocking my way. "Where do you think you're going?" Draco asks, and I look from Arthur to Draco.
"Through you if you don't get out of my way" I say, meaning every word of it. Draco glares down into my eyes, his gray eyes sending a shiver down my spine. When he speaks, his words coming out as pure ice to my heart.
"Not like you can hurt me like I have you" Draco says, and I feel the air leave my lungs. I watch in a daze as Arthur jumps infront of me, pinning Draco to the ground and pounding his fists to Draco's face. I watch as they roll around on the ground, then Draco pinning Arthur down, blacking one of his eyes.
