Nova Snape; A Draco Malfoy-Severus Snape story (Completed and Edited)

Chapter Two

It has been a week into the start of term, and I have been just laying-low getting used to the fact that I am sixteen...

I woke up to the sound of Slytherin girls snoring. Hmm... I wonder if I snore... anyway, I looked at the clock and it said it was almost six in the morning. Wonderful. I grabbed my stuff to shower and went upstairs.

...

I walked back to my dorm after showering to find everyone still asleep. I pulled out my book and started reading. When the other girls' alarms started going off, I stepped into the shadows of the room, hoping they would go by me. The girls in my room didn't like me very much, but that's okay because I prefer guy-friends... less drama.

"Where's the other one?" the blonde- haired girl asked. Shocker, she didn't ever know my name

"Who Nova? She probably just got up before us again" the dark haired girl said to the other. Well she has some decency to her...  I waited until the others had left the room, into the common room. I made my way down the stairs, not really paying attention. About five stairs from the bottom, I stepped on the side of my foot instead of the bottom of it. I heard a disgusting crunch-pop noise and I fell to the bottom. I braced myself for impact but it never came. I looked up to see a face, a boy's face. He had Blonde hair and grey eyes. My feet were on the floor but he was holding my back, almost like bridal-style.

"Are you okay? You took quiet a fall." He asked. When he say my confused expression he set me upright and held out his hand. "I'm Draco Malfoy"

The pain in my right ankle was unbearable so I didn’t put any weight on it. I reached out and shook his hand. "Nova Snape"

"You're Snape's niece then?" he looked at me strangely. What the hell?

"Yeah, why?" I returned his strange look.

"Well I was expecting his niece to be creepy and greasy-haired. Just like him" he said calmly, while looking at me up and down, "Did you hurt your ankle?"

I quickly put my ankle back on the floor, careful not to put any weight on it. "No" I said too quickly, he caught my lie.

"Well if you didn't hurt your ankle, walk over to the door." He smirked at me. Urrg... Why was he doing this to me? I started limping to the door, only to find the weight and pain too much to handle. I just started hopping. Suddenly I was off the floor, being carried by Draco Malfoy, bridal-style.

"What the hell do you think you're doing?!" I asked, clearly wanting to be put down.

"Taking you to the hospital wing" he said calmly, like it was no big deal. But it was a big deal; he thinks he can just carry me through the school without attracting attention? Yeah right...

"Why?" I said as I looked around at other people, who were staring at me.

"You expect to get to the hospital wing by yourself? You couldn't even walk to the door." He shrugged it off. "The way you're acting is like you're heavy. What you got all of 40 pounds on you?"

"Thanks, but actually I’m a little over a hundred" I started blushing, having the whole situation sink in; I almost fell down the stairs and died but Draco caught me, then he decided I couldn’t walk so he picked me up and carried me to the hospital wing, then he complimented me, calling me skinny. I didn't realize we were in the hospital wing until he set me down on a bed.

"Miss?" Draco called, trying to get the attention of the nurse. She rushed over and asked, "What seems
