The Potter Twins • Part 7

I woke up in a cold sweat, wrapped in pale warm arms.

A rough, but gentle voice came up. "Daire, what's wrong, you've been tossing and turning all night."

I sighed and relaxed, hearing Draco's concerned tone.

"I-I'm alright. Dream, caught me a little off guard."

"A little off guard? You look like Snape just handed you some Amortentia."

"It's nothing, I'll tell you later, I promise."

"Ok. Why don't you head get some water, and then get to bed. You've buried yourself in extra work, that doesn't even count towards your grade."

"I want to still know the material so that when I come back in not clueless." I said, buttoning up my pale pink flannel pyjama shirt, that happened to reveal my dark green bra. I was clad on my bottom half in only a pair of matching boyshirts, which Draco seemed to enjoy his view of them.

"Are you coming, or are you just going to look at the full moon?"

"I'm coming, I'm coming." He only gave an infuriating smirk, to my dismay.

It was meeting the end of the term, and Draco had been staying in Gryffindor Tower, which was great, especially because of the betrayal of Marietta, Cho's friend who snitched on us and gotten us to Umbridge.

The whole DA had gotten extreme detention in April, as those black blood quills, had already etched several scarred, distorting messages into my hand.

Draco planted a soft kiss on my forehead, as we climbed the stairwell to my dormitory.

"I don't want to go in here. I want to stay with you."

"You're not going to sleep well if you stay with me. I'll see you tomorrow, alright?"

I nodded, and opened the door, shutting it quietly. I jumped in my bed, and went to sleep.

Grunts, sighs, and hisses of pain all echoed throughout the Great Hall. I scratched at my hand, feeling the stabbing sensation of the quill taking my blood.

A pop went off in the air. It sizzles out as a whiz of a firework came in and popped.

Umbridge got up and walked down carefully, eyeing Harry and I down, to which I snickered at.

I whispered a quick jinx to make the toad trip just as she got to the door, and she did.

The next thing I knew my paper had went up in the air, and small ashes floated down on my desk.

I heard the twins' laughter, and I could only have a million 'thank you' messages to them.

We enjoyed the celebration, of the comedic firework designs, and when the dragon came into form, I spoke in Parseltongue, hoping since it was a reptile, it would understand me.

"Slethsazi ethia."

It went full speed at the pink toad, and unhinged its jaw, looking forward to its possible meal.

As soon as Umbridge got out the doors of the Great Hall, the dragon split into small fractures and blast into the hanging frames of the Educational Degrees.

Fred and George whipped around and flew out to the courtyard, and the herd of students all followed.

We cheered as they lit up their final spectacle, the W.

Seering hot pain shot through my scar, and I yelled loudly, clutching my head tightly.

I saw a flash of platinum blonde hair, and before I hit the ground, Draco's arms caught me.
