A Short Drapple Story

"Omg! Did you see Draco- he was staring at you again?" My best-friend Sydney Jolie whispers to me.

"Oh Shut it Sydney." I hit her with my book, so she'll be quiet. She knows I have had the biggest crush on Draco Malfoy since our first-year at Hogwarts.

"He LOOOVVVES you!"Sydney teases me and Professor Snape whacks her in the head with a book.

"Quiet Ms. Jolie- or will we be seeing each other in detention?" As Professor Snape walks away, Sydney sticks out her tongue, but I notice she immediately starts writing her potion's results.

I laugh to myself and quickly go back to my own assignment. i wonder if Draco really does like me?

"""""""""""""""""""""""

As we are leaving potions class, I notice a green apple rolling towards me. It makes a slight click as it touches my foot. Bending down to pick it up, I realize its a perfect apple- shiny, smooth, vibrant, and hard to the touch.

"What do you got there, Izzy?" I feel my face heat up as I look right into Draco's sparkling eyes.

"Just an apple." I try and say as nonchalantly as possible.

"Looks to be a pretty special apple -may I see it?" He looks at me and I feel my body floating on a cloud.

"Sure." I say and toss it to him. He catches it in a heart shaped cupping of his hands.

"It's beautiful," he whispers, "just like you." and on that note he tosses it back to me and hurries down the corridor. Did Draco Malfoy just compliment me?

"Oh My Gosh! Did you hear that?!" Sydney starts to shake me, "he practically asked you out! Izzy has a boyfriend!"

"No he didn't! Be quiet, he was just comparing me to the apple."

Even as I say this, my heart is flying and I feel as if energy were shooting through me.

"You should keep the apple as A token of his love!"

"Stop talking- let's go to class."

My feet speed up, and I leave Sydney stumbling to catch up with me. Meanwhile, i feel my hands involuntarily caress the Apple inside them, and I know I will never let it go.

"""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""

"That mud blood Granger has gotten on my nerves the last time." Draco is pacing around the common room in another one of his rants.

"I know this and that and I'm so smart. Blah- if she's so smart why doesn't she know her place in the wizarding world."

When Draco becomes so passionate, I fall in love with him over and over again.

"Why do you have that expression on your face?....oh- are you thinking about Draco again?"

Sydney almost appears exasperated at me, and i realize she must have been trying to tell me something. oops

"Sorry, what did you need?"

"Well Draco told Crab to tell Boyle to tell me that he wants to meet to you this afternoon in the restricted section of the library."

"What?! Are you serious?"

"I heard he's going to ask you out."

Sydney pokes me in the stomach, laughs.

"Excuse me. Do you mind helping me with my Defense against the Dark Arts homework? I'm really confused."

A first year girl stands in front of Sydney and me.

"No." I say at the exact time Sydney says, "yes."

We glare at each other for a split-second before she jumps up to help the girl. Ugh. What was I going to do now?

"Izzy!" I jump as I hear Sydney calling me, "He said bring the apple."

""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""

Creak! I jump and feel the hair on my arms stand up. Wooh-Not a teacher, but maybe Malfoy?

"Oh, Izzy, there you are." I turn and find my face an inch from Draco's.

"Yep."

Yep? That's all I could say?

" Did you bring what I asked for?"

He smiles, and I am sure even in the dark of the restricted section,

he can see my redness.

"Here's the apple." I smile and hand it to him. As I'm placing it in his outstretched hands, our fingertips. The contact sends lightning bolts up my arm.

"Thank you. I couldn't stop thinking about it. It is so beautiful."

"Yes-" I start to say, "wait what?!"

Suddenly I notice Draco is almost drooling as he eats the apple up with his eyes.

He rubs his neck with his empty hand and seems to be embarrassed.

"This might sound crazy, but after seeing it this morning, I haven't stopped thinking about this apple. I think I'm in love with it. Isn't that great?"

His eyes meet mine and I see pure passion in them.

"YOU CREEP! STUP-"

I scream and whip out my wand, but he is faster.

"EXPELLIARMIUS!"

My wand clatters to the ground, and Draco grabs my arm.

"If you try that again or tell another soul about my Apple, I'll use an unforgivable curse on you."

With his crazed mind, I don't doubt him, so I grab my wand and run out of the library without looking back. Draco is insane and I'm the only one who knows- he's in love with an apple. For the first time since I arrived at Hogwarts, I'm scared.
