The Girl Who Disappeared (Harry Potter Fan-fiction)

Chapter 53

"Yes." she smiled.

Draco was incredibly happy and lifted her up as he hugged her.

"Draco! Put me down." she said embarrassingly.

"Malfoy, that's a vulgar move. Put Ms. Freya down." Snape said.

Maurelle walked up to the tower where the owls were. She went to got check on Reign to see if there was a letter. When she walked in, she sees Cho on the left. Maurelle went to her owl and saw Reign had a letter. She opened it:

I heard what happened in the world cup. I can't believe he was close to getting you. This is too dangerous. This dark mark concerns me. I wanted to leave this mission and come to you, but Ava insisted that you are better off alone. Me being involved will only bring too much attention, and an easy access to you. Then I heard you are participating in the tournament, with Harry! This is all too peculiar. Please be careful and look out for one another. I'm still busy with Ava trying to figure this stuff out with Voldemort, who knows how long we will be gone. No need to send Reign back, I don't want you to be tracked. I wish you all the best of luck.

Love, Augustana.

Maurelle looks up and sees Harry and Cho. She pretends to still read the letter, while eavesdropping on their conversation. Harry tried to ask out Cho, but was rejected. After Harry moved on, he noticed Maurelle.

"Maurelle! Well, I'm glad you're here. I uuh...well. I w-was will....." He took a pause to gather his thoughts," You want to go to the ball together?"Harry said.

Maurelle was infuriated,"I can't believe you are asking me this now when the ball is coming up in a few days. I will not be your last resort because your first choice rejected you. Besides, someone already asked me way ahead of time." she stomped out.

Maurelle met up with Hermione and they hung out by the lake.

"I can't believe Ron, asking me out as his last resort." Hermione said.

"You tell me, Harry tried to ask me out, right after he got reject by Cho." Maurelle said.

"I'm glad Viktor asked me out, at least I'll be treated like a lady, unlike Ron." Hermione said.

"Hermione, did you want Ron to ask you out first?" Maurelle said.

"What? What do you mean?" Hermione played it off.

"Hermione?" Maurelle said.

"Okay, fine!" Hermione said.

"I know you fancy him." Maurelle said.

"What?! When?" Hermione said.

"Since you've been bickering at each other like an old married couple." Maurelle said making Hermione blush.

"Well who are you going with anyways." Hermione said.

"Draco." Maurelle said.

"Him?! What do you see in him, Maurelle? He practically insults us all the time." Hermione said.

"I know! He acts different around me, and I've always defended you guys, you know that!" Maurelle said.

"Whatever...And what about Harry?" Hermione said.

"I've liked Harry for a while. When it was just the two of us, he cared for me and was there when I needed him. We've protected each other throughout these years, I can't help how I feel about him. But if he doesn't feel that way then I won't stay and linger." Maurelle said.
