Drarry: a Beauty and the Beast story

Chapter 7; Pelting people

A/N
And here I am, back again. It has been a busy December, but hey, what's life without a little action? On my birthday I was really happy with all the gifts I received, but the best one was definitely the 100+ reads on this story. I never even thought people except for my friends would want to read this. So I can't thank you guys enough. I know it's not much in comparison to what you guys gave me, but I hope I can make you happy with this new (extra long) chapter. Have fun!

Harry POV

The next day Harry woke up in his own bed. "Good morning," Harry yawned.
"Shut the fuck up Harry, it's 6 am and... Harry!" Ron jumped out of his bed.
"Where were you mate? We, I mean, Hermione has been so worried yesterday," he let himself fall onto Harry's bed.
"I was at the infirmary, didn't madam Pomfrey inform the teacher?" Harry asked surprised.
"No, she did not... I knew it, I bloody knew it, that dirty lair! Don't worry Harry, we'll take revenge," Ron yelled.
"That's a bit harsh don't you think? She probably just forgot because of Neville," Harry responded.
"She? Mate, what are you talking about? I'm talking about getting back at Malfoy for what he did to you!" Ron said.

"What?! What did he do? Damn, I'm away for ten seconds and that annoying git strikes," Harry grumbled.
"Huh? You don't know? So... then Malfoy didn't lie, he really didn't have anything to do with your disappearance," Ron concluded. Harry started laughing.
"You thought Malfoy was the reason I was in the infirmary?" Harry asked amused.

"Yeah. You didn't show up in class and neither did Malfoy. Then when he did, Dumbledore asked him if he hadn't seen you guys by any chance. He said no, but I bet on all my wizard collecting cards, he was lying. The sweat was visible on his fore head and he started stammering, have you ever heard him stammering? It looked quite ridiculous actually," Ron smirked.

Malfoy was late? That's odd, he's never late. I swear, every time we are late he says something like: "You bunch of idiots are a disgrace, you should at least try to act like you're worthy of following this class. Malfoys are always on time." What a shame I wasn't there to rub it in his face.

"Do you think he's up to something?" Harry asked. "Aren't you the one who tells us he's always up to something?" Ron laughed. Harry nodded in agreement.

Draco POV

"Good morning sunshine!" Pansy sang. Draco opened his eyes to see a happy Pansy sitting on the edge of his bed.
"Pans, for fuck's sake, what are you doing in the boys dormitory and more important, on my bed?" Draco growled.
"Grumpy much? I don't care about rules or your personal privacy, I thought you'd have that figured out by now. Now stop whining and tell me about Potter," Pansy gave him an amical punch to his shoulder.

Draco felt something by the mention of Harry's name, but he put it somewhere far away and gave Pansy a cold stare.

"Wow calm down mister, Blaise told me you screwed up, but it couldn't have been that bad," Pansy laughed. Something snapped inside of Draco. This wasn't funny at all. Draco's breathing started to accelerate quickly.

How can she laugh about this? She doesn't know what I know. Does she really think it could work that easily? I'm a death eater, he's the chosen one, but if I just ask him out the world will make an exception? No, of course not! You know what will happen? My dad will kill me, if the Dark Lord hasn't already done so. But the worst thing, Harry will laugh at me, right in my face. Then he will get angry and ask me where I found the audacity to even think that he'd go out with a death eater, let alone a boy. Harry obviously isn't gay.

"Hey, do you hear me? Dray, snap out of it!" Pansy was shaking him by his shoulders. "What the hell was that? Did you just have a panic attack? Draco, talk to me," Pansy plead.
"I'm fine," Draco said and got out of bed. "What?" Pansy gaped at him while he casually started his morning routine.
"I'm taking a shower, you're welcome to stay in my room as long as you don't make a mess," Draco replied.
