Blind Sided (Draco Malfoy Love Story)

Chapter Two.

The day went on and it was time for DADA which I wasn't looking forward to anymore considering that pink blob was going to be teaching it so I highly doubt that she would be any better than the previous professors we have had. I sat beside Draco in class and I laughed when he tried to knock down a flying paper bird but everyone went silent when it just burned away into nothing, the blob was in the room now and her voice was like nails to a chalkboard to me. She starting going off about the OWLs we would be taking this year and how we will not be allowed to use proper magic nor would we be learning how to properly defend ourselves that was when Potter spoke out against her.

        "Cedric Diggorys death was a tragic accident!" she shrieked.

        "It was not you old hag! I was there too and he saved my life from Voldemort! I was there, give me that truth serum and you'll see!" I stand up half shouting at her.

        "Enough! Enough. See me later Mr. Potter and Ms. Delatago." the look Umbridge got in her eyes was flat out terrifying.

                I scoffed in disbelief as I sat back into my chair and glance over at Draco whom is keeping his facial expression blank so that Umbridge won't possibly rope him in on this. Umbridge continues on with her lesson which was absolute garbage, how could the Ministry possibly think that this is what we needed to learn in order to protect ourselves out in the real world. I mindlessly wrote down notes and studied through the rubbish DADA book that we were given, there was absolutely no mention of defensive spells in here. Hermione was right.

        It felt like that class dragged on forever with all that book work so when we were allowed to  leave I was the first one to run out. Draco calls out after me to slow down and manages to catch up with me.

        "Slow down Ser!" Draco grabs onto my arm and stops me

        "I can't believe it! Detention for speaking the truth!" I growl in frustration then look up at Draco and feel my facial expression soften a little.

        There had always been something about him that calmed me down whenever I was angry, I sigh and just shake my head at him before taking off to my next class. Care of Magical Creatures I don't think even being in this class can make up for the complete lack of proper teaching I'll be getting from DADA. I'm a muggleborn and Salazar forbid the day the rest of the Slytherins find out I am as good as dead. Although I've been for the most part growing up with them and learning alongside with the day they learn what I am, I just hope that I'm the better one at spells. The only ones who know my secret is Potter and his friends, they learned that back in second year and thankfully they're keeping it a secret for me.

        Just like DADA class the rest of the day went by slowly  and dragged on until dinner time when I could finally see my friends. The rest of the Slytherins didn't much care for me because they found that I was rather annoying, sure they were pleasant towards me but only spoke to me because I was friends with Draco.

        "Well took you long enough." Draco scooches over to make room for me

        "Oh shut up, it's been a long day." I take my place beside him and smirk over at Parkinson.

        "What time do you have to go see Professor Umbridge?" he asks me

        "Right after dinner." I sigh and the food appears before us.

        I dig in right away as the friend group and I talk about our day and how first day of classes went so far, the popular topic being my detention with Umbridge and Potter. We all wondered what she would have us do, I suggested it was something stupid like writing lines or even revoke our privilege of going out to quidditch try outs by holding us in for detention. I'd rather the lines honestly. Draco offered to walk me to the classroom after dinner and to wait for me until it was over but I told him he'd get in trouble if he waited and that I was perfectly capable to walk back to the common room afterwards.  For a second I thought he looked disappointed but shrugged it off as him just wanting to look out for his friend so when it was time to go I let him hold my book bag on our way there, we chatted a little bit on the way there and I felt our hands brush together. Instinctively I pulled my hand away and looked away to hide the fact that I was blushing, this was a new feeling since this sorta thing has happened all the time before so why would I blush now and what the bloody hell is this feeling?
