Y/N POV
My first class was with McGonagall and so was Malfoy's, he forced me to go to class with him and his 2 friends. Honestly, the class turned out to be better than what I had expected. Someone barged through the door in the middle of the class. It was Potter and the redhead kid who snickered at Malfoy's name, the Weasley.
Malfoy laughed at Potter's excuse. He told McGonagall that they got lost. Couldn't blame him though, the school was quite big and maybe I would've gotten lost too if it wasn't for Malfoy forcing me to go with him.
•••
We got a potion class taught by the head of our house, Snape. I sat beside Malfoy, didn't know why, maybe I had got used to it after doing it several times. Malfoy was smiling like an idiot while listening to Snape. I glanced at Snape and met his eyes. I smiled awkwardly and turned my head down avoiding his eyes. Damn, he was quite odd, I guessed.
Snape asked Potter some questions because he didn't pay any attention to what Snape was saying. The girl beside him raised her hand for each question thrown by Snape as Potter could only reply with I don't know sir.
"Pity. Clearly, fame isn't everything, is it Mr Potter?"
Malfoy smiled proudly as soon as he heard what Snape said to Potter. Why did he show that smug smile of his when he, himself, had no idea what the answer was for any of the questions.
"Stop smiling, you look like an idiot," I blurted but he kept smiling.
I was surprised by my own self when I found myself enjoying the potion class. The class finished faster than I thought. Everyone had left the class except me, Malfoy, Crabbe, Goyle and a female Slytherin stranger. I stared at her, she had short dark hair and an average look. I watched her looking at Malfoy in such a weird way.
"Let's go back to our common room," Malfoy said. Me, Crabbe, and Goyle just nodded and were ready to walk away when Malfoy was suddenly stopped by the short-haired girl.
"What do you want?" Malfoy spatted.
"Can I be your friend?" I had a hard time holding my laugh when she said that in front of Malfoy. Seriously, did she just ask Malfoy to be her friend straight to his face?
"We've already had a girl right here," Malfoy pointed at me. Since when did I agree to be his friend?
"You can add one more," she said smiling dearly to Malfoy. I got it now, she was here after Malfoy. As soon as Malfoy turned around to look at me, this girl sent me a deadly glare.
What the hell?
"What?" I questioned Malfoy.
"Well, do you want her in our gang?"
I glanced at the girl, she was still glaring at me. Did she have any problem with me? I thought about rejecting her, but a brilliant idea came up. If she wanted to be in this gang because of Malfoy, this could be a great opportunity for me. I wouldn't have to hang out with these guys anymore.
"Sure, whatever," I said walking away.
"Where are you going?" Malfoy shouted.
"You've got another girl, so I'm leaving the gang," I said leaving the room to go somewhere.
•••
It was already evening and I entered the common room after spending my day strolling around Hogwarts. Guess what, I was welcomed by a grumpy Malfoy. Not like I wanted to be welcomed with a warm Malfoy either, just ignore me and I'd be fine. However, Malfoy was too dumb to notice that.
"You can't just leave our gang."
Dealing with a boy is surely the definition of pain.
"What do you want me to do then? Do you want me to do something before leaving the group? Like maybe give you a punch in the face for annoying me? You should've asked me earlier cause I'd love to do that, even now I can still feel the urge to punch you."
"I don't want that. Our parents want us to be friends and that means you're staying in our gang."
"Like I care."
I walked past him to the girl's dormitory. I was too tired to deal with anyone right now. I took a quick shower and changed to my super comfy pyjamas. I was so ready to go to sleep, but as far as I knew, it was still not a private room of mine. Girls were still talking, gossiping about anything, and there she came, the girl from before. She approached me with a glare.
"Draco is mad at me because of you."
Wow, so they're on the first name basis now?
"So? I did nothing wrong," I said turning my back to her, pretending to go to sleep.
"Go back to the group and tell him that you want me in the gang too, or something bad will happen to you."
I really didn't want to deal with this one kid but she kept on pushing my nerves. I turned around to sit and looked at her in the eyes. Fine, I would just mess with her for a little bit.
"Who are you to threaten me?"
"Just do as I say and you'll be fine," she said before walking away but I grabbed her wrist tightly so she couldn't escape.
"I said who are you to threaten me?" I glared at her. I could see the fear in her eyes, I thought she's gonna apologise soon but she thought it would be better to pull my hair.
"What the hell!?" I screamed and pulled her hair back. We're still grabbing each other's hair and the other girls were just whispering around and watching us. After a lot of cursing, a girl rushed to the common room and yelled, "Y/N and Pansy are fighting!!!"
The prefect quickly came to intervene in our fight, but he failed miserably. I was grabbing and pulling Pansy's hair tightly that she screamed in pain. The prefect panicked and told some girls to call any professor nearby. I could see some boys managed to get into the girl's dorm to watch.
Snape and McGonagall came in after a few minutes. They managed to separate us apart, Snape got me and McGonagall got Pansy. I have some of Pansy's hair in my hand and she got nothing. I smirked at her feeling proud that I won the fight. I found Malfoy looking at me in an expression that I couldn't analyse.
"What do you two think you're doing?" McGonagall snapped.
"S–she started it," Pansy cried trying to act like she was the victim. So, we were playing drama now.
"Why would I do something so low in my level?"
"Um...uh...she pulled my hair! Look at her hand!!"
"Oh is this your hair? Pardon me for not recognising it, I thought it was some kind of dirt on your head so I think of helping you to remove it."
"Silence you two," McGonagall shouted.
Well, it was my turn to tell the truth now.
"She dared to threaten me!"
"I never did!" she lied.
"Is there any witness?" Snape asked.
Some girls told the professors the truth about Pansy attacking me first. The truth was I grabbed her wrist first, but that didn't matter now. She got scolded by McGonagall. But in the end, we both got detentions to write some kind of apology letters, to be done tonight at Snape's office.
"Now you boys, go back to your dorm or serve detentions with the 2 girls," Snape said.
"Just so you know, I'm telling this to my parents. Let's see who's gonna get bad things in the end," I hissed to Pansy as we both followed Snape to his office.
