I want you (Draco Malfoy Love story)

Chapter seven

"Pumpkin juice" i called out dying to get inside before another teacher nearly catches me. I stood outside the common room door for a couple of minutes before even attempting to open it. Something felt off. My heart slowed when Draco left, i don't understand how his attitude can change towards me so quickly. Maybe Malfoy's are just temperamental, i know his father is and there's clearly not much difference between father and son. I step over the small ledge of the door silently trying not to wake anyone who may be asleep. Surprised, i saw Harry sat on the couch playing with something in this hands, i go over and sit next to him. "How come you aren't asleep?" i inquired as i sat down. "Why were you so late back and why were you with Malfoy" Harry ordered the words as soon as i laid back against the cushions. My heart raced as i thought of Draco walking me back "I wasn't with Malfoy what are you talking about?" i lied hoping he wouldn't see through it. He passed me a blank piece of folded parchment, slowly ink spread over it forming a maze of straight and crooked lines. "It's called the Marauder's Map it shows where everyone is in Hogwarts and who they're with" he looked up at me clearly pissed off. "Draco was only walking me back so i wouldn't be on my own" i tried to defend myself but it clearly wasn't going to cut it. Harry just looked at me disappointed and stood. "You're back safely clearly so i don't need to wait up for you, i'm going to bed" he didn't even try to hide the disappointment in his voice never mind his face. He turned his back to me and didn't even bothered collecting the map before heading up the boys bedroom stairs.

I let out a deep breath and threw my head back onto the sofa. What did it matter to Harry who i walked back with? And what did it matter to Draco if Harry was with me? Further more what does it matter to me that both of them are mad at me? I lift my head to look at the fire it was still roaring and clearly Harry had put more wood in probably hoping to be still sat down here at this time. It was only eleven thirty four but there was no reason for me to be awake so i folded the map up and put it in my robes pocket. I went up to my bed and Teal was of course tangled in my bed covers per usual. I changed into a old t-shirt and shorts and slid beneath the covers trying not to wake her. As soon as i laid my head on the pillow my mind drifted to what Draco and I had overheard. It wasn't long before i fell asleep to the sound of Teal purring and rolling about my feet.

I woke up in the morning and saw that teal had disappeared from the end of my bed. I turn back around to drift off again until i heard a voice scream my name from the common room. I jump out of bed leaving my covers screwed up on the floor tangled up with a single sock, I race up the stairs thinking the worst when i hear my name being screamed again. Completely out of breath i stood on the top step to see Ron staring down at Teal chasing Scabbers around the carpet. "What on earth were you screaming for!" i thundered at him still half asleep. "It's gonna kill scabbers she won't let me near him" he whined. I stepped over to scoop Teal up away from the pesky rat when harry came tumbling down the stairs in a tied up dressing gown. I immediately started laughing at him in his pajamas when i finally looked down at myself in an oversized T-shirt and shorts. Harry looked at me and flushed pink. "Get over it Harry you're acting as though you have never seen a girl with no pants on" Ron remarked. Harry immediately looked away, "I am wearing pants!" i exclaimed quickly getting embarrassed "it's just my T-shirt is so long you can't see it". I turned to go back down the stairs and get ready seen as i was already up. Teal growled back at scabbers as i crossed the room still clutching her. "Watch that bloody cat of yours will you" Ron called as i walked down the stairs. "Yes ok" i called back. I walked over to my bed and began smoothing my sheets back out over my mattress after they had gotten thrown all over because of this morning's disruption. Teal jumps onto my bed and pushes her head against my hand, i quickly stroke her before getting ready. This morning i was going to make sure i got a chance to eat breakfast properly.

After getting ready i walked up to the stairs to see only Harry stood there. "Where's Hermione?" he asked awkwardly.
"she said she was gonna be waiting up here?" i looked around for her.
"Ron said that too.... well i'm gonna go to the great hall i'll see you in class" he mumbled and walked out the door. I could of easily walked with him and tried to make up with him but i didn't feel like it. I've decided from now on i will only apologise if i am in the wrong; in this case i am not.
