Her beige nails tapped the top of the desk in a click-clack pattern. As her fingers fell, my eyes settled on the ring wrapped around her first finger on her right hand. The little yellow stones sparkled as they lay so perfectly in the silver.
Her dark brown eyes were so incredibly focused, as if she was looking out onto a never-ending lake contemplating some inevitable impossible. She seemed to furrow her eyebrows as the professor elaborated on yet another beautiful tangent of magical history.
I in that moment saw the true light within her. There was an almost impermeable glow that radiated from below her dark curls. Her resembling an open-faced grandfather clock. Gears and thoughts churning behind those eyes.
I was trapped in a state of hypnosis until Blaise snapped his fingers in front of my face.
B: Draco, Professor Cedar asked you a question.
I then had the sudden realization that the entirety of my history course was staring at me intently waiting upon an answer of a question I didn't know. Included in this group was the beautiful girl with my diamond ring upon her left hand. She then smirked and let out a little chuckle .
Prof: Focused on your girlfriend I see Mr. Malfoy
Professor Cedar turned his back to the class to collect something off his desk.
D: The beautiful woman I was distracted by is my fiancé Professor.
The whole class smiled and Professor Cedar looked surprised before turning to face Em.
Prof: You got a lot on your hands with that one Hermione
She let out a chuckle
H: Don't I know it Professor.
Then the professor turned back to me.
Prof: You're lucky she's stuck with you.
