𝙐𝙣𝙚𝙭𝙥𝙚𝙘𝙩𝙚𝙙 ( A Hogwarts drama)

𝘾𝙝𝙖𝙥𝙩𝙚𝙧 𝙁𝙞𝙫𝙚: 𝙅𝙚𝙖𝙡𝙤𝙪𝙨𝙮 ✧

Weeks and weeks have gone past and Malfoy was no different. I thought we had settled things in the hospital wing that night, but apparently I was completely off. He showed me his nice side and everything and now I'm back to square one with him. I can't say a part of me didn't expect it though.

I just wish things were different. I've just wanted him so badly and I know he didn't feel the same. My mom always told me boys who bullied you fancied you, but I think this is different.

"C'mon Aeria!" Seamus said

"Yeah come on class is starting soon. We are gonna leave you if you aren't finished in five seconds!!" Hermione said."I'll just catch up with you guys." I said."Fine. But don't be late , okay?" Hermione ordered. "Let's go Seamus."

I picked up my fork and started shoving my breakfast down my throat. I had some time but I didn't want to chance being late, Gryffindors were in the lead with points. Classes were starting to become so much more enjoyable lately. Hermione was finally starting to hang around us again, not just Harry and Ron. Her and I mostly fell off, It was her and Seamus that were getting closer. Those two seemed rather flirty in a way. Yet possibly not, because I always thought Hermione and Ron had something going on.

I was the last one left in the great hall. It was very peaceful to finally be alone, but I couldn't sit there all day. My plate disappeared in a heartbeat and I picked up my books and headed off to Transfiguration.

"Well well well! What is Wringbell doing out of class?"

I turned around to see Malfoy with a devilish smirk. What does he want now?

"What do you want, Malfoy."

He slowly walked up to me until our bodies were about 3 feet apart. My chest started beating rapidly. He softly put his hand under my chin and lifted my head so our eyes met."I know you like me, Wringbell." He said

"What?" I responded softly, My face filled with embarrassment.

"Admit it, you like me. You have liked me since we met. It was quite obvious when you were so concerned in the hospital wing that night." He said with a smug look

Of course he was right,but I was not about to admit it to him. Why now? Why would he tease me like this now? I caught myself gazing at him, he was just so.. mesmerizing.

"Don't flatter yourself, Malfoy." I said

He pulled his hand away and gave me a somewhat baffled look as  I stormed off to show him I wasn't as easy as he thought . He was standing in the hallway for a while, almost like he was stuck there. I have absolutely no idea what that was all about but I felt butterflies fly around my stomach. His touch was so angelic and being that close to him made me melt, but I couldn't let him win.

As I walked into class I turned towards my usual seat to see Hermione and Seamus there, laughing and playing around. Okay then... When they noticed me, they instantly stopped and their faces went straight.

"Woah sorry for crashing the party guys." I said sarcastically

"I was just saving your seat of course." Hermione said while getting up.

"No no, it's okay. I won't mind sitting by Harry and Ron."

"No Aeria wai-"

"No Seamus really, it's okay." I smiled and walked over to them. This was my chance to get to know them better, we were friends but just not close anymore.

"Guess I'm filling in for Hermione today." I said to them. "Hope you don't mind."

Harry and Ron moved over so I could squeeze in the middle of them.
