Slytherin's Princess | Draco Malfoy

8. Hog's Head Gathering

Alice

"You've been spending your whole time with your boyfriends." Blaise pouts one breakfast at the crowded Slytherin table.

I almost choked on my oatmeal before Alex came to the rescue, giving me a glass of water and pating my back hard.

"Who?" I ask after I manage to swallow my oatmeal.

"Your boyfriends. The new prank master, the number two, and the prince charming."

I gave him a look as I shook my head before proceeding with my breakfast.

"I'm sorry, but they've got name. Which is Fritz, Hugo, and Alvin," I said, rolling my eyes.

"You're not denying they're your boyfriend?" Blaise said with a sly smirk, playing with his spoon between his fingers.

"Because they're not. How many times am I suppose to repeat myself?"

There has been nothing but this topic we have since I don't know how long. Blaise kept bothering me with all the boyfriend thing while Malfoy still tries to get me to believe him that Alvin had a crush on me.

Which is complete rubbish.

"At least you've got to admit the Hufflepuff boy had a major crush on you," Malfoy said in his calm voice, his mouth full with toast.

I look at him in disgust as he continued to talk with his mouth full.

"You better close your mouth before I sew it together," I threatened. "And his name is Alvin. Alex, you tell him!"

Malfoy closed his mouth and chew silently, but not for long as he already opened his mouth to speak again.

I choose to ignore the two idiot and focus on my mushy breakfast. Scrunching my face, I push the bowl away from me.

"I still don't understand why you kept forcing the idea of Alvin into my head," I said, propping my chin on the back of my hand.

Malfoy went to open his mouth for a brief moment before closing it tight again.

This always happens whenever I ask him the question. Was it that hard to answer it? Or he didn't have a good enough reason to drive me mad every day?

If it's the letter, I swear I'll kill him.

"Alice!"

I stop on my track, so is Alex, Alvin and Hugo.

Fritz had ran off after Transfiguration that day, and now he shows up thirty minutes later, all sweaty and out of breath.

"I don't understand how he manage to be a quidditch captain back in Hayord." Hugo shook his head disbelievingly, earning a glare from Fritz.

Fritz gave him a look before turning to face me. "Hermione and Harry invited me to something intresting on the next Hongsmeade visit."

"Go on."

"They said it would be great if you guys would come to. Said it's something to use against that Dolores."

"That sounds intresting," Alex said.

"I know. We'll be meeting at the Hog's Head." Fritz informed as he began to walk with us.

"But would they acknowledge us?" Alex said. "I mean, Alice and I are pretty close with Malfoy. And with that Inquisitorial Squad thing going on, I don't think he would believe us that easily."

"Maybe not at first. But they'll see how you were not the same as the other Slytherins."
