"So I heard that the two of you were having a snowball fight in the courtyard after hours?" Dumbledore says. I nod, looking at him. "Yes we did headmaster." Draco replies to him. "But it was my fault. I asked her to come." I look at him, in anger. He really thinks he can make it up to me by taking the blame?  I humph quietly, only so that Draco could hear it. "Is this true miss Soulton?" Dumbledore asks me. I nod "Yes sir, he had asked me earlier yesterday." I lie, trying to get him the most of the punishment. Dumbledore nodes, "Good, well Draco, you will have detention for this week, and miss Soulton, I want to have a word with you." "That is all?" Snape asks. Dumbledore nodes again. Making Snape slightly irritated. "Now, Draco you can go, Severus you too. Olivia, like I said I want to have a word." I nod. I see Draco look at me, but ignore it, he deserved this. Him and Snape walk out of the office leaving me and Dumbledore alone, I am slightly frighted. Not knowing what he wants from me. "Olivia, no need to fear. I will not punish you." he says shocking me I look at him. "Then why did you want me to stay?" I ask politely "I just wanted to know how your first week has been." he admits. He points at a chair in front of his desk, I walk over to it and sit down. "This week has been great!" I say honestly. "Pretty intense but great!" "Ha, yes the Triwizard Tournament, quit a great year to start." he laughs, I nod. "But I see you have made friends with Mr. Potter, Mr. Weasly and Miss Granger. They are good students I trust that you will become better friends over this year." "Yes I have, and I must admit they are great! I am lucky to have them as my friends." the headmaster nods. "Now, go ahead and enjoyb your Sunday." he finally says. "But sir, don't you want to punish me for being out to late last night?" "No, I think you had your punishment, being with Mr. Malfoy must have not been easy." he says laughing a bit making me giggle. I nod and stand up. I walk back out into the halls of the castle. I see Harry and Ron stand at the end of the hall, I walk up to them "Hey mate. How was it in the office, Malfoy came out not looking to happy." I giggle. "Yeah he took all the punishment." I say. "How did that happen?" Harry asked shocked I shrug. "Honestly I do not know. But what were you talking about?" I see Ron blush. "About who we were going to ask to the Yule Ball." Harry admits. "Are you already thinking about that, it is still like three weeks away." I say. "Yes, we know but we want to make sure we get dates." 

------------------

It now is a couple of weeks later, the Yule Ball is in two days, I quietly hoped Draco would ask me. But we haven't really talked since that night, yes we have been sitting together at potions but that was about it. I feel like he is the one who is mad at me now. Because of how I treated him. I feel bad. We have potions again today, so I might try to apologize to him today. Even if I do, he won't ask he to the Yule Ball, since he is a Slytherin and I am a Gryffindor. Hermione and I walk to the dungeons for our class. Ron and Harry already made it there, Ron saving a seat for Hermione, who took it gladly. I walk over to mine and Draco's table. Nervously waiting for him to show up so i can apologize. 5 minutes in the lesson and he still isn't here. Great the day I Need to talk to him he doesn't show up I set my elbows on the table and rest my head on my hands. Then the door swings open and Draco is standing in the opening. Looking at me and looks disappointing I made it. "Please Mr. Malfoy take your seat and let me continue my lesson." Snape says. Making Draco look at him annoyed, then following his instructions and walking over to me to take the seat next to me. "Hey." I whisper. He looks at me and then looks back to Snape. Once Snape is done with his speech we are ordered to try and make the homework. Draco immediately starts. I put my hand on his arm trying to get his attention, but he pulls his arm away from underneath my hand, making my hand fall on the table. "Please Malfoy, I want to say sorry about what happened the other night. Can we at least talk about it?" I say. He looks at me, his expression softens, just a little bit. "Fine. Meet me here before lunch." he says going back to doing his homework. I do the same, glad he wants to at least talk about it.

After potions I have muggle study with Ron so him and I walk to the classroom. It is a boring class, since I know already almost everything. But after this class I am going to talk to Draco, hoping to get him to forgive me, since I forgave him. We finally get dismissed and I walk out, going to the bathroom to try and avoid running into Ron, Hermione or Harry, so they don't ask me where I am going. "Where are you going?" Ron asks. I sigh "To the bathroom, you don't have to wait, I will find my way to the Great Hall, I will see you there." I say. "Ok mate see ya." He says, I sigh relieved, knowing Ron is easily convinced. But instead of going to the bathroom I am going to the dungeons to meet Draco, since Ron already asked me where I was going. I would only waste time if I did go to the bathroom. I walk to the potions classroom, walking inside. Sitting down on my stool. Now we wait.
