Last Summer Love • H. Granger {Book 1}

EIGHTEEN

Future Thoughts

Even if Draco was on the wrong side of Harry's team, Ivy wasn't going to let it bother her. She allowed herself to see Draco every opportunity she had and even if that meant sitting with him at the Slytherin table, then she was going to do it. Mainly because she knows it bothers him and loves the reaction she gets from it.

As she was heading down to the green and silver bannered tables, she saw the white haired boy and plopped herself next to him and smiled up at him and his friends.

The boy with dark skin smirked at her and looked over Draco is confusion and the girl, with a a bob cut and a disgusted look on her face, glared at Ivy. "Draco!" She yelled over dramatically and hugged him as he rolled his eyes.

"Hi, Ivy." He said with no emotion and the girl looked over his friends.

"Ugh! Draco Malfoy you cheater!" The girl sneered and rushed out as Ivy furrowed her eyebrows.

"Is it something I've done?" She asked with her arms still wrapped around the blonde and constricting him tighter and tighter.

"No, that's just Pansy. And I'm Blaise Zambine." The dark skinned boy stated and Ivy took his hand into her own.

"Blaise." She mumbled and smiled. "I've heard many good things about you." She said and Blaise kept his smirk and looked at Draco who was looking at Ivy as she let go and grabbed a roll.

"I like her." Blaise said and Draco looked over at the girl who made conversation with Daphne Greengrass. "She has spunk and personality." He whispered and Daphne smiled over her and laughed.

"Well, she's gay." He stated and Blaise snapped in his fingers in defeat.

"I knew it was too good to be true." He said and Draco chuckled as Ivy walked back over and looked over the two boys.

"What's too good to be true?" She asked and Blaise smiled.

"You, so how are you friends with Draco?" He asked and the girl sighed.

"It's along story. If I meet you later in the years." She said unsure as Blaise furrowed his eyebrows.

"What do you mean?" He asked and Ivy smiled.

"Don't worry about it. That's why I came over here actually, I need to talk to Draco." She said and Draco furrowed his eyebrows.

"Okay." He said and the girl grabbed his hand and pulled him along the corridors.

Once she reached a secluded area, she looked over his face and sighed. "I can only tell you this, because Harry won't understand." She said and pulled out a blue vile.

"Okay?" Draco said confused and she placed the vile in his hand to let him look over it.

"I'm going home." She said and he looked over the blue liquid.

"With this?" She asked and she nods with a big smile.

"I get to see Hermione. My Hermione, and then you when you aren't bullying first years." She teased as Draco smiled, but then tears started forming.

He could feel the pain of her leaving. "When?" He asked and the girl smiled.

"I probably will after I help and talk to Harry. So you still have me for a while." She stated and he nods while handing the bottle back to her.

She smiled and wrapped her arms around his neck. "Thank you for understanding." She whispered and he wrapped his arms around her waist.

"I'll miss you." He whispered back and the girl pulled away and kissed his cheek.

"You'll see me again, in the future. Because my real self is in America probably getting drunk." She joked.

Draco chuckled and watched as the girl left. He sighed and wiped the tears off his sleeve and pulled his suit to make the wrinkles go away.

Hermione's body was broken, she didn't know what to do at this point. Dark circles covered her under eyes, hair was in knots, and she was sickly pale instead of her usual light tan.

Ginny can in every day trying to help her, but nothing seemed to work. Harry looked everywhere and anywhere all over the world. Ron was no where to be seen. Draco, was the worst of all, he had gotten no sleep in the last week and he held a bottle of whiskey in his hand.

He rubbed his face and looked at himself in the mirror. Then his eyes traveled up to a picture that made him smile. It was Ivy holding the camera towards herself and Draco as she crossed her eyes and stuck out her tongue and Draco was laughing.

He felt his heart crumble even more, and he took the picture off the mirror and looked at it one last time, until his fingers curved over the edges and ripped it ok half.

The picture still moved, but Draco had finally cracked and he had officially given up.
