Draco x Medusa

part four

'Seriously Disa you need to be more careful.' Ignis pushed, taking another enormous bite of his cheese pasty, 'Mm, yeh he could be evil for all you know.'
'Oh what if he's evil?! Whatever will she do?!' Uri asked sarcastically. Ignis kicked her under the table.
'Oh Colubra! Over here,' I heard Blaise beckon me over to their table where Skode sat with Sig.
'Well, looks like the elders need you,' sighed Tyson.
'Yeh..' I replied, 'But meet me tomorrow morning before breakfast okay?' I asked. They nodded in unison, and I winked over at Ignis' worried face before running over to join the third years. As I walked I passed Hermione, and two boys.
'Oh! This is Medisa!' Granger exclaimed. 'The one who-'
'Yelled at Gordon.' the ginger smiled goofily, 'And right bloody well you did. He's a right twat. I'm Ron.' I raised my eyebrows.
'Nice to meet you Ron.' I looked over to his right to see a taller, dark haired boy looking expectantly at me. So entitled. I smiled, 'And who's your friend?' I smirked sarcastically.
The three of them looked completely taken aback. 'What? Really?' Ron asked, completely bewildered.
'Um i'm Harry.' Potter stated. 'Potter. As in Harry Potter.'
'I know.' I replied smoothly. I rolled my eyes and walked away. Gryffindors.

One benefit of joining third year? Hogsmeade. I ran to catch Pansy and Sig on our way walking down to Hogsmeade, closely watched by Filch. 'Colubra! Finally.' Sig exclaimed.
'We were just talking about the boys in our year. I guess a pair of fresh eyes don't hurt,' Pansy sighed. I laughed.
'Okay.'
'We were fighting over who we would rather date. I said Hart was more attractive than Draco and she totally freaked out. I mean she has had a crush on him for-' Pansy glared at Sig and smacked the side of her arm. 'Sorry.' Sig said, in an exaggerated tone.
'So, Draco or Hart?' Sig asked. I gazed over at the two groups in front of me. Draco was stood with his flock of friends who seemed to follow him everywhere. He was dressed in a huge black coat, his face relaxed and laughing. Hart I had heard about in first year, an infamous play boy. He seemed popular with the older boys and was walking with the likes of Cedric Diggory and a boy from Slytherin who looked too old to be in school. He had dark blue eyes and curly light brown hair, messy but not messy. I sighed. 'Probably Hart. Mainly because Malfoy such a bloody squib,'
Sig burst into laughter, and as I looked to Pansy, she seemed to have a slight curve to her mouth too.
'He was the first friend I made okay?' she defended him quietly, saying, 'He's really quite nice when you get to know him.' I shook my head in disagreement. Sure, I thought, he seems positively charming.

We headed straight for Honeydukes as soon as we got there. I grabbed a few things for Uri and the others as they had requested that I came back with a boatload of sugar or else. Afterwards we made our way to The Three Broomsticks, catching Blaise standing outside drooling over Madame Rosemerta.
'Wow Blaise, stare much?' I exclaimed, and immediately he looked away, laughing awkwardly. The four of us walked in and joined Malfoy, Skode, Crabbe and Goyle. I sat myself far from Malfoy as Crabbe went to order 7 Butterbeers. They seemed to be in a discussion about Sirius Black.
'My parents told me they've added 17,000 galleons to his bounty. 17,000!' Skode described.
'Black seems the type to turn himself in for the bounty, only to escape Askaban yet again!' Blaise chuckled.
'You know for one of his victims, he only left a finger. A FINger!' Goyle added. Crabbe laughed  impressed as he approached somehow clutching 16 butterbeers. I raised my eyebrows.
'One two...sixteen Crabbe? How did you manage that?' Malfoy asked completely blown away.
'Well Madame Rosmerta..'
'Oh. Fair enough.' smirked Malfoy. 'Now we're third years, we can come here basically all the time.' The boys all chuckled. I looked over at Pansy, who had become quiet with a saddened look on her face.
'Hey, Pansy, Sig, why don't we head back?' I asked loudly.
'Yes.' Pansy said quickly, 'I mean, sure. Bye Draco.' We downed our Butterbeers and walked out quickly. As we left I looked over to see Draco staring at Madame Rosmerta as she carried our empty glasses away. I rolled my eyes and opened the door to leave. As I turned to close the door behind us, I glanced back to see Draco rolling his at me.
'Bye Draco!' Sig mimicked evilly. We were now walking back up to Hogwarts.
'Oh shut it.' Pansy moaned, 'God that was awful. Madame Rosmerta doesn't know what power she holds.'
'What, bewitching 16 year olds to buy 9 more drinks than needed? I think she does.' Sig laughed.
'Oh did you see Blaise!' I added, and we all laughed as we walked up the grounds.
