Assigned Lovers// Draco Malfoy Love Story

11. yule ball

Alina had gone back to her room, Snape joining her. She begged him not to leave, wanting to hear all about his life.

Snape sat on the couch while she sat on the floor, the fire providing them comfort and warmth. Snape told her about his days at Hogwarts, the bullying he faced and his love towards Lily Potter. He told her the dark parts of his life, joining the dark lord and becoming a death eater. And meeting her mother, a fellow death eater who he felt infatuation with, but not real love. He then told her about the order, in which he wanted her to join. And about their secret meetings and him being a spy for them.

Snapes life intrigued Alina. But she worried for her father, what would happen if the dark lord found out about his spying?

"Alina" Snape interrupted her thoughts

"We have to keep this a secret. Okay? I don't want anyone knowing about our relations. Especially Slytherin students. The dark lord and his followers think your dead. Let's keep it that way" His voice growing cold.

"Okay father" Alina understood

"I will tell you more about your mother and my life later. And you can tell me all about your adventures my child. But you must get to sleep now." He kissed her head and left.

Alina could not sleep that night. She had so much on her mind. Everything with Draco and Cedric and now her father. Then the overbearing fact that her life was basically a lie, and THE dark lord wanted her to be a death eater. On top of all of that, she still had a mission to do, one that even Dumbledore sought as dangerous. She managed to get a couple hours of sleep in after thinking about these things for hours.

Saturday
Life continued on after that night. Alina was still doing great in her classes, especially her fathers. Her and Snape had met a few times and bonded. Alina telling him all of her stories as he listened in amazement of his daughters achievements.

It was saturday now and Alina had her apology date with Draco. She quickly threw on a sweater and jeans and headed to Hogsmeade.

She enetered The Three Broomsticks where Draco had told her to meet him. To her surprise he was actually there, two butterbeers laid on the table. But as Alina made her way closer to him, she realized he was not alone. Pansy Parkinson sat across from him. A smug look on her face as she noticed Alinas sad expression. Alina quickly ran out of the pub, her heart beating fast.

Why am I so worked up about Malfoy. I despise the git. But that bitch Pansy Parkinson makes my blood boil. I should teach her a lesson. She thought to herself.

Alina then felt a hand on her shoulder, she quickly turned around to see Cedric smiling at her.

"Hey Cedric" Alina said relieved

"Hey Alina. If i remember correctly I believe you owe me a date" He smirked

"I believe I do" She said, a thought then came to mind. "Why don't we go to the pub?"

"Sounds like a date" He replied, grabbing Alinas hand.

They made their way in to the pub Alina sitting at a table and Cedric going to get butterbeer. Alina couldn't help but notice a pair of eyes glaring at her and of course, they belonged to the ferret boy.

He looked jealous and his face was bright red. But Alina brushed it off, he was the one who ditched her and so she didn't think there was any harm in finding another date.

Cedric returned with the drinks. The two sat and talked for awhile. Then Draco made his way over to them, leaving Pansy to pout at his absence.

"Excuse me, if I may borrow Ms.Hemmings" He said, but before either of them could respond he grabbed her arm and dragged her to the back of the pub.
