The Long Lost Zabini

E I G H T

When Draco came back Pansy was in tears following him.

"But-but- DRAKIE!!!" She wailed.

"Whatcha do, Mate?" Blaise asked Draco as he got back into the pool.

"I broke up with her," Draco said so simply it made me smile slightly.

"And I see how that went over I observed.

"Yes..." Draco glanced over at Pansy who was glaring at me. "Worst break I ever had...though that was probably my second,"

"And who was the first?" Ginny asked.

"Me," We turned to Astoria, she was being awfully quiet. She got out of the pool and went to comfort Pansy. Astoria said something to Pansy and the both went inside.

"Well...that's something," Harry said after a bit.

"Yep,"

"What should we all do?" Ginny asked.

"I don't know," Draco said.

"Is it just me or is anyone else cold?" I asked.

"Yeah," Ginny said. "Let's get out," I nodded and we swam over to the stairs and climbed out. We grabbed our towels and wrapped them around ourselves. "You boys coming out, or what?" She asked.

They looked at each other and got out of the pool.

"So what do you want to do?" Blaise asked, as we walked inside the house.

"I don't know," Harry replied. "But I should get going, see you all later!"

"Okay, bye Harry!" I said, as he apparated away. "Ginny do you want to head back upstairs to change?" I asked turning to her.

"Sure," We both walked away to the stairs.

"Hey, Amber? Can you wait for a sec?"
Draco asked me.

I looked at him confused but said okay.

We walked over to by the doorway that led outside.

"What's up, Malfoy?" I ask.

"So you know how you have this wandless magic stuff now?" He said quietly.

"Obviously," I say matching his tone.

"You do know it's very rare, and the Zabini's are the only family left in Europe to have wandless magic?"

"Some of that is new, why do you ask about this, Malfoy?"

"Because, I know someone who is very skilled, he is very strong with magic and can do wandless magic,"

"I thought you said-"

"He lives in America," Draco interrupted.

"Oh,"

"I can owl him, and perhaps set up sessions for you, so you won't hurt anyone,"

"Why-"

"Why would I say that?" I nodded answering his question. "Well, you're holding your hands together and keeping them as close as you can, so it kinda looks like you're nervous, and yours eyes also show worry,"

"It's that obvious?"

"No, just to me," He smirks.

"...okay...then, Malfoy, I'm going to my room, I'll see you and Blaise in a bit," I start to walk away.

"So will you try it?" He asked.

"Maybe,"

"Maybe?"

"Maybe," I give him a small smirk.

"Bye, Zabini," He calls as I leave. I roll my eyes as I climb the stairs to the hallway that leads to my bedroom.
