❝ You'll love me at once the way
you did once upon a dream. ❞

"Diggory, wake up!"

It was an early afternoon as Alice began to squirm on the common room's couch. Opening her eyes, she found Draco nudging her arm as she rubbed her eyes. When reality striked her, her eyes widened and immediately stood up from the couch. Her six friends were all staring at Alice who just woke up.

"You alright?" Daphne asked.

"Did you saw Leo?" Alice replies with a question.

They all look at each other confused. "Who?"

"Leo? Leo Hurtzwood? From Durmstrang?"

"Hurtzwood? Never heard of that name before." Pansy admitted.

"Yea. Me neither." Goyle and Crabbe added.

"Are you sure that's his last name?" Blaise questions.

"Of course, Zabini. I heard it with my two ears." Alice defended her sid.

Draco rolled his eyes as and chuckled. "You were tricked." He said.

"What do you mean?" She asked.

"Hurtzwood? Tch! I know everyone. And there is no Hurtzwood in the whole History of this world. I bet someone played a trick on her or a better, a mere dumb thought,"

"What?"

Draco chuckles. "You were dreaming."

"No, I wasn't!" She protested.

"Yea right. After that mask twist, you were gone. Zabini lost you in a matter of seconds,"

"Yea. I was looking for you. I-I mean I was very worried that you were lost."

"See? We have a proof."

"I am not! And believe me! I'll find him!"

"Go on. Be my guest."

"And this is one of the reasons why I didn't want to speak to you Malfoy. Because everytime I speak, you go against it."

And with that she left her friends, leaving a wave of guilt inside Draco for making her feel that.

She knows she was still angry of him. And it didn't take an expert or genius to see that.

As dinner came by, the Slytherin fourth years headed for the Hall to eat. When they all have been seated, (the girls on the other side of their table, talking to other Slytherins) Blaise was the first to take notice that the younger Diggory was nowhere to be seen.

"Where is Alice?" Blaise asked.

"Don't know, don't care." Draco replied coldly.

Gregory smirked at Blaise. "You got abrakadabra by Diggory, my friend."

Vincent smirked. "Greg is right."
