Mr Loverman: a Draco Malfoy Fanfic

Chapter 5

It was the first day at last, many classes but still not the one she was looking forward. From talking to the girls on her dorm, there was a myth saying that no DADA teacher lasted longer than a year, because the job had been jinxed. Hopefully this wasn't the wrong choice, hopefully this teacher was good and she got what she came looking for.

Care of Magical creatures was one of Y/n's favorite back home, the fantastic animals from South America were all so full of colors and wonders, so she was looking forward meeting the beasts that inhabited this side of the world. The chilling autumn air whipped their faces as they walked down a tiny hut, where the massive Professor Hagrid was waiting for the class, apparently they shared class with the Gryffindors, whom from what she was told, Slytherins didn't get along. Y/n tried to keep herself neutral, before she decided wether she liked them or not. Specially because a certain hero was in their class. Gryffindors were so different, they were quite careless and didn't seem to keep their appearance much cared for, a girl with wildly bushy hair was giving y/n the chills, did she not know how simple the spell to keep tame hair was?

The class went off interesting, Malfoy mocked Harry because he passed out and became extremely jumpy with dementors, then Malfoy being the prat he is, got himself injured by a Hippogriff, and had to be ran to the hospital wing.

On the way back to the castle Blaise explained more detailed the sort of things that tend to happen, as Malfoy being a drama queen, as well as his rivalry with Potter.
Blaise didn't seem so intimidating now they had time to talk, he was rather nice, like a brother.

By Friday, a gloomy day was ahead, yet Y/n's spirits were high. At Last she was going to have Defence Against The Dark Arts. Everyone who already had the class could not stop talking about it, it seems that Professor Lupin was good, which suited perfectly for her.

She finished her breakfast and urged Blaise and Pansy to hurry and go to the class, yet Pansy told them she wouldn't be going, she needed to go to the hospital wing to retrieve Malfoy, "he was very hurt, I really must help him!". She acted so strangely over the boy. Y/n came to understand that even if it was quite early (from her perspective), Pansy was already chasing over boys, but her main goal was Draco.

They arrived at the class and took a seat, but when professor Lupin came, he told them to save their books and guided them out. They followed until they arrived in the staff room, where Snape was hanging out. Lupin asked him out, then directed himself back at the class.

All of a sudden, the wardrobe on the corner began to tremble, they all looked startled, Lupin seemed amused.

"Can anyone tell me what's in there?" He asked calmly.

"That's a boggart sir!" Some Gryffindor boy answered.

"That's correct Mr Dean, 10 points to Gryffindor. Now does someone know what a bogart is?"

"Sir! A boggart is a shapeshifter, nobody knows what it truly looks like. It becomes what a person fears most" Recited who Y/n now recognized as the wild haired know it all girl by the name of Hermione Granger.

"Excelent! 10 more pints"- replied Professor Lupin...

Y/n started understanding, they were sort of annoying...

"Potter ruins everything!" Exclaimed Malfoy at the end of the class, who made Y/n jump. She hadn't noticed him standing right next to her, with a clinging Pansy on his other side. "I didn't even get to see my own boggart!" He told her. "Yeah" she replied kinda startled, it was the first time he directed his word directly to her. They both stood looking at each other until she realized, snapping off and beckoning them all to leave.

Why were his eyes so intricate? A Gray so light and deep you could get lost with a glimpse.
