Chapter 5

Warning: the following Chapter includes Pedophilia, molestation. The next chapter will also have a warning attached.

I walked down the halls with this dread in my stomach. I had felt very nervous in every action I've made since Draco had his inheritance. I do not know what he will do, so I have taken a great liking to the common room rather than the library. I understand I should not be this way, I should attempt talking to Draco, however, I am afraid of rejection. I admit it is exhausting to avoid him in the halls and fight my creature's natural need to be with him. I guess this was immature and should face it bravely like the Gryffindor I'm supposed to be but... can anyone blame me?

Should I name the reasons he could and why he would reject me?

1. I refused his friendship during my first year for a jerk who was my first friend.

2. I, quite vocally, insulted him while refusing his friendship as I believed in that jerk and he reminded me of one boy I grew up with.

3. I took him up on that challenge during flying class and yet again insulted him.

4. Following was a challenge to duel and I grew to quickly hate him more.

5. We pulled him into our own detention and we ran into Voldemort in his weakened/Quirrell form.

6. During my second year, we already got off on a bad start by meeting in the bookstore.

7. My friend is a muggleborn, who he blatantly stated to hate.

8. Despite me losing bones which would've lessened it, I would have thought anyway, he still hated me due to an injury during Quidditch to which he barely suffered my pain.

9. His father hates me for helping Dobby be freed from their family. To which he has sworn loyalty to me, taking a job at Hogwarts as long as I attend here.

10. Tried using my fear of dementors against me, showing more hatred.

11. After I rode Buckbeak he attempted to do the same, just to get hurt and then tried to get the beauty killed.

12. I took joy in punching him in the gut after Hermione punched him in the face.

13. Did I mention he used my fear against me?

So what can I do? Nothing. I'm so frizzed out about it. I would cry however at the moment I'm in public. I then trip... My heart quickened as if a drum was placed in my chest, and then before my face could hit the hard cold floor, I was caught by masculine arms. If this was a fairy tale, it would have been Draco, however, it was Cedric Diggory. He pulled me up and I looked into his eyes... I felt like I was being sucked into another world for a moment. They were a deep beautiful pool, warm and kind. I swore I could feel his heartbeat with mine. I've read about such feelings. You'd think this how mates would react however that is far from the case.

This is... an imprinting. (I will write a small description in a note.)

He blinked, much like me, and then he said to me "You should pay attention a more, Rosie." I nodded, still shaken from that experience. "Yeah..yeah! Sorry, I have been preoccupied lately." As I apologize I got this...shifting feeling. I have never felt this before. It was warm, friendly, and comfortable. "By what?" He asks. "Firstly, I had my inheritance during the summer, then the attack from Death Eaters, then after that I was chosen for the tournament, and now I have trouble with my mate..." I took a deep breath. I sounded so pathetic. I'm so pitiful, aren't I? "This really hasn't been your year so far, has it?" I shook my head. I heard a growl. My inner instincts were acting up... Damn it, is Draco near? "Well, I better go to class."
