Chapter 7 - Pardon?

(Vivian)

My internal alarm decided it was going to wake me up at five in the morning. Yippee.

Whatever.

I rolled out of bed and winced as my feet hit the floor, a surge of pain shooting up my left leg, sending me to the floor with a thud.

I let out a sigh and used the bed frame to pull myself up and limped into the bathroom.

I took a hot shower, making sure I got all the dirt and sweat out of my hair.

I wrapped a black fluffy towel around myself and walked out into my room.

My eyes widen and I hold back a scream as I see Draco sitting on my bed, presumably waiting for me.

"God dammit Malfoy! You scared me!" I whined.

He just chuckled. "Sorry Viv, you were showering so I just let myself in." He said as he rubbed the back of his neck.

I sighed softly and rolled my eyes. "Jerk, you're lucky I'm wearing a towel." I said, blushing softly.

A light blush rose to his cheeks as he looked down at his lap.

I bit my lip and walked over to my wardrobe, opening it to find my clothes all neatly placed in the correct spots.

"Snape came in early this morning and unpacked for you." Draco answered my internal question.

I nodded slightly and looked through my clothes, trying to find something to wear.

"Do you have any suggestions Dray?" I asked, turning to look at him.

Draco bit his lip in thought. "How about something badass? Show those assholes who they're messing with."

I chuckled softly and nodded. His enthusiasm is adorable.

I grabbed the clothes and walked back into the bathroom, making sure to lock the door.

I finished up my makeup and walked back into the bedroom.

"Damn, didn't quite expect something that badass." Draco chuckled then mumbled something under his breath that I couldn't quite hear.

"Does it look good?" I asked, suddenly feeling extremely self conscious.

Draco looked up at me and smiled. "It looks amazing, Viv."

I smiled softly as he stood up and walked over to me. I then realized he's still in his sweats and graphic tee, his pajamas.

"Shouldn't you get dressed?"

He chuckled. "I was waiting to see what you were gonna wear. And I wanted you to see my reaction to when I open your gift." He said with a smile.
