Malfoy Neighbors

Valentine's Day in Hogsmeade-Year 5 Chapter 23

January quickly faded into February, and before you knew where the days had gone, it was the day before Valentine's day, and a Friday to boot.

"Are you going to spend the whole day with Draco, tomorrow?" Sam asked, as you and her studied in the libary on Friday evening.

"Huh?" You replied in confusion.

"Hogsmeade," Sam said, "Tomorrow is the trip to Hogsmeade, and it's Valentine's day too." Sam look at the library ceiling. You had been so busy with all the school work that kept the fifth years occupied, you hadn't realized it was already so far into the month. You staired at her. Was it really tomorrow?

"Sebastian and I are spending the day together." She said and looked back at you. "And, with you and Draco back together, I thought you might want to spend the day together too."

"I have no idea what he has plans. To be honest, I didn't realize it was tomorrow." You admitted.

"Has he said anything?" Sam asked, closing her book.

"Nothing, maybe he forgot too." You said shutting your book as well.

"You're going to go find him now, aren't you." Sam said playfully.

"Oh, you know me too well." You smiled and packed your bag. "I'll see later."

"See ya!" Sam said, happily as she watched you leave the library. You headed down to the courtyard and found Draco with Crabbe and Goyle.

"Shhhh" Goyle put his finger to his lips when he saw you.

"Talking about me are you?" You asked the three of them in a joking way.

"Never mind them, (y/n)." Draco said and lead you away from them. "You know how stupid they can be."

"That's not nice, Draco. They're your friends..." You were cut off by his lips on yours. You kissed him back then went on as if he hadn't just interrupted you. "You shouldn't be so curl to them."

"That's better." He said, satisfied.

"What's better?" You were lost. What on earth was he talking about?

"You practically just told me to behave myself. That's you being your old self." He said.

"Oh, that." You had long forgotten about him wanting you to tell him off for being a jerk.

"Anyways, I thought you were going to study tonight with Sam. What happened?" Draco asked, changing the subject.

"Tomorrow's the trip to Hogsmeade." You pointed out. He smiled at you. "What?"

"Never mind. Don't worry, I didn't forget the promise that we would spend the whole day together." Draco said as the two of you walk around the perimeter of the courtyard.

"It's also Valentine's day." You said.

"And?" He replied lazily.

"Well, what are we going to do?" You thought he might have forgotten, but when you saw Goyle shush the group when he saw you, made you think he was planning something he didn't want you to know.

"Don't worry that pritty Hufflepuff Princess head of yours." Draco said smirking. "Just dress comfortably for the day." Draco gave you a kiss and left you standing at the entrance back inside the school. You watched him walk back to his friends when you felt yourself pulled inside and you hit the ground.

"Just because you're dateing him again, doesn't mean he'll stay with you." Perkinson said before heading outside.

"Wow, is she jealous or what?" You truned to see Ginny Weasley. She helped you stand. "She doesn't like you in the least."

"Nope, and it doesn't bother me any." You said, halfway laughing. "Draco can't stand her." You walked with Ginny and Luna back to the Great Hall, where you left them. You said your goodnights and you headed off to your dorm room. Sam was laying on her stomach, sprawled across her bed, playing with your niffler. (N/n) had taken a liking to Sam and Sebastian.

"So, what did he say?" Sam asked when you sat down on your own bed. You told her everything from how Draco and his friends were talking when you arrived to leaving Ginny and Luna in the Great Hall.

"Sounds like Perkinson is jealous like always, but you'll have to tell me what happens tomorrow. It sounds like Draco's planning something."

The next day, you met Draco and headed out together. He refused to tell you anything, and it was driving you nuts.

"Come on Draco, where are we going first?" You asked for the third time.

"If I tell you, it wouldn't be a surprise." Draco answered. You entered the wizarding town holding hands.

"Draco? We're walking past all the shops." You said really confused.

"That's because, I'm not taking you to the shops." He said and pulled you around the corner.

"I don't think I've ever explored this far into town before." You said, looking around. The shops and homes weren't like the others on the main street. They were smaller, cute even.

"I had Crabbe and Goyle help me with this." Draco said.

"Help you with what?" You said and looked at Draco. He was standing in front of a blanket layed out on the ground. The lake was sparkling just a few feet away.

"Sit." Draco said sweetly. You sat down. "And thanks to Dobby and the other house elfs," he said and pulled his wand out, and as food appeard, he said, "we have a picnic."

"And who would have thought that Draco Malfoy, the school bully, could be so romantic." You playfully said. "This is so sweet, Draco; and to think you got help from your friends and the house elfs."

"Well, all Crabbe and Goyle did was bring the blanket out." Draco said. "And the elfs did do most of the cooking..."

"Most of the cooking?" You interrupted him.

"Yeah, I sort of asked them if they could help me with this." Draco handed you a red box wrapped with a bow. "I don't know if you'll like them." You smiled and opened the box.

"Chocolates!" You loved chocolate. "Are these muggle chocolates?" You asked seeing that they weren't fizzing or trying to escape. Draco nodded his head.

"I couldn't very well have just asked my parents to send me some, they would have had a heart attack. And I couldn't ask Sam because then she would have told you. So, I asked the house elfs if any of them knew how to make them and I was in luck."

"You are really the best boyfriend, Draco." You said taking a bite of one the candies. "This is really good."

"Really?" Draco said shocked. You handed him a piece, which he ate. "It is. I should go into the chocolate business." He joked. The rest of the day was a blast.

After the picnic, Draco took you to get some more Fizzy Wizzbees, as you were out again. Then for some Butterbeers, where you saw Potter, Granger and Luna talking to a reporter. The day ended without your approval and you headed off to bed with a smile after telling Sam all about it.
