Note: Hiii so I haven't updated in a little over a year. Just thought I'd say I had completely forgotten what my plans for this story were but were just gonna carry on anyway and see where it goes. Enjoy. Also ik there have  been spelling mistakes and all the jazz but like we move. And yes I am aware of the ultimate cringe levels. It's gonna get worse so hold on to your hats cause you ain't seen nothing yet! Points if you get my references.
(oh yeah and nothing is canon so sorry)

RAELIN POV

After lessons I make my way to the library to study with Jessie. On my way there I turn a sharp corner in the corridor and accidentally bump into somebody. Luckily I don't drop anything but something even more awkward happened. My first instinct was 'I'm gonna fall' so I grabbed onto the person in front of me.

Holding them by the arms I looked up to see an at least six foot boy with unimaginable cheekbones. He's smiling down at me a little awkwardly and it's then I remember I'm holding onto his biceps so I let go, step back and quickly apolagise. He says it's okay and starts to say something but my fight or flight instinct started to kick in and, out of embarrassment, I chose flight. Quickly, I walk past him as he continues to talk, now to himself.

I tell Jessie about my awkward encounter. She asks who it was but I had no idea. I didn't even see what house he was in. All I noticed was his jaw line and RAELIN STOP! I had just ran into this beautiful being and left him standing alone in the corridor as he tried to talk to me! I don't really get to daydream about him.

Studying with Jessie was a little boring. It was efficient and she was a good teacher, I really appreciated her help but that didn't change the fact that I was rather bored. There wasn't much talking and my mind just seemed to wonder.

I couldn't stop thinking about Malfoy and how I was gonna have to sit for at least an hour with him, trying to teach him transfiguration. The thought made my skin hot. How was I supposed to work with a guy like that?

*

Jessie left and I prepared myself for the next hour. I looked at my watch and it was only five past four but I was still kind of annoyed that he wasn't here yet. I sat with a huff and waited for him.

Legs and arms crossed, I just sat in my chair, I started to feel a bit nervous and I don't know why. What's the worst he could do?

It wasn't until nearly four, twenty when Malfoy actually turned up. As he walked through the library, towards the table, we made eye contact. His grey eyes meet mine and I flush. Why am I blushing?

"where have you been?" I asked annoyed

I'm not blushing. I'm just angry. My cheeks are red from rage!

"calm down" he says coolly "what are you a teacher?"

"No!" I respond sharply "but I don't like to be kept waiting"

He sits opposite to me and for some unknown reasons I'm disappointed. It's not like I would want him to sit next to me or anything. I suddenly get chilly and pull my robs tighter around me.

Draco Malfoy POV

"do we really have to do this? " I complain as I play with my quill.

She doesn't answer me with words, just slightly lifts her head to me and gives me the evils with her eyes. The kind of look that says 'just shut up. I don't want to be here either' but I know that's a lie. I say her face drop when I sat opposite her.

I just smirk at her and she rolls her eyes, continuing to talk at me about rats and mugs and what not.
