The Snake and The Seer

Emerson & Draco

~DRACO'S POV, WOW DIDN'T KNOW IT WAS GONNA START LIKE THIS, NOW DID YA?~

 I feel disgusted with myself, I can't believe that I did that. If Mother and Father hear about this, I'll never hear the end of how I royally screwed up the one good thing going for me. Mother will never forgive me for hurting her, she cherishes Emerson with her whole heart. God, I'm an absolute idiot. How could I ever be so stupid? I'll never see her smile again, that beautiful and sweet smile. I feel like a fool, more of a fool than Potter and his princely self. 

Sitting in the common room, would usually be a very relaxing thing, a time to unwind as some would say...But not tonight. I decided that sitting by myself in the dorm room would be better. It would give me time to come up with a way to apologize to Emerson. I laid my head back onto the headboard, glancing over to the dresser, where the book I 'borrowed' from her laid. I was about to get up and grab it, right before Goyle walked into the room.

"U-uh Draco? You got a letter...It's not labled who it's from, but the handwriting is nice. I assumed it was from your parents." He threw the letter onto the bed, put his hands in his pockets, like he was waiting for something.

"Get out, Goyle. This isn't any of your business." I grabbed the letter and shoved him out of the room, closing the door behind him. Looking down, I saw the delicately written letter addressed to me. This isn't Mother's handwriting, nor Father's. Hmm. I tore open the letter and started to read.

                                          Dear

                                                       Draco,

I hate you. No I don't. I'm mad at you. That's better. I can't believe you did that, you know how much my father means to me and his things, they mean just as much as him. You should know that, you've seen me when I'm upset, it's not the prettiest thing. Though, all these things that you've gifted me are very, very meaningful, and I love them. The letter was very thoughtful, I know this will sound absurdly rude, but I'll have to thank Quinn for giving you the idea. The picture might be the most meaningful to me, and I thank you for everything in this lovely package. I'm still very much mad at you, and I do have that right. Forgiving you will be easy, since you're so charming, but I must advise you; it'll be a few days before everything is back to normal. I do forgive you for being a jerk, but I'm still mad at you. If you wish to speak to me, I'm in one of the extra rooms for teachers. Uncle Remus' s arranged it for me. It's down the hall from Professor McGonagall, if you do come visit, I wish you best of luck, Uncle Remus told her to be on guard in case I try to leave and go to the black lake.

                                                     With much love,

                                                                                  Emmy Lydia 

I sniffed and ran my hand under my nose, I can't cry over a letter...No, she would tel me it's okay. I have to go and see her. I put the letter away, where none of my imbecile dorm mates could find it. Grabbing a random set of my shoes shoes, I sped out of the dormitory and the common room, passing by Pansy and the others. 

"Draco where are you going? It's a Monday night. Snape will kill you if he sees you out in the halls." Pansy jumped up from where she was previously sitting and tried to walk in front of me and stop me from leaving the room.
