"Of course Malfoy's come to save the day" Blaise fake applauded turning around to see a very pissed off looking Draco. But of course Draco kept his cool as he replied "Zabini are you asking for another bloody nose, i know i can handle a fight, but can you?". Blaise stood there unsure of his next sentence, Draco pushed passed him jolting hard on him. He grabbed me by the waist pulling me close to him and brushing the messy strands of hair out of my face "Are you ok? let's get out of here". Immediately i felt safe in his arms as i melted into them, i could hardly get my words out so instead i just nodded.
"Going so soon the both of you, i'm sure that we can have another drink or two together" Blaise laughed behind us. Draco breathed in sharp clearly ready to have rid of Blaise, "Actually Zabini i think Bellamy has had enough to drink for tonight". I had hoped that Blaise would give in now and realise he wasn't going to get anywhere but instead he carried on, now gaining some attention from other people in the room. "Really Malfoy, i thought you're girl could show us some more of that dancing". Draco turned his body away from me pushing me closer to Hermione. Only seconds after Blaise had finished his sentence Draco raised his clenched fist to Blaise's face and smashed it straight into his nose. Almost immediately Blaise had blood running down his nose, people had all begun to turn their heads in our direction. Draco didn't even give him a second look, and by the way Blaise immediately began to back off i think it was clear he wasn't going to be fighting back today. Draco grabbed my hand and pulled me on through the crowd. "Granger, you too" he shouted back at Hermione who was still awkwardly lingering in the open space we had created. Unlike usual she took the orders Draco gave and followed us toward the magical door which had currently disappeared. We were close to the exit when i saw Harry, Ron and Ginny by the drinks table. Draco clicked his fingers at them to gain their attention, and although you couldn't hear the snap of his fingers over the music all of them still seemed to change their attention to us. "Weasley, look after Granger. Blaise Zabini says anything to her, find me" he called over to them as Hermione nodded at Draco to say thank you and wandered over to them. Draco rushed us to the door and pulled out his wand "Alohamora". The doors formed on the once blank wall and Draco whipped the door open still holding onto me tight, he didn't give the room a second look. But if he had he would of seen a quarter of the room turning their head in our direction and then turning back to a stumbling bloody Blaise.

Draco turned the corridor not even caring if a professor was looming around us. My feet stumbled and tripped still feeling wobbly from my past drinks. "Draco my legs are-" i began to pre-warn him, but i was too late. My legs gave in as i went stunning to the floor, hitting hard bum first into the stone steps. He looked down on me concerned before bending down my level, "God Bellamy, how many drinks have you actually had". My stomach turned at the thought of another straight fire whiskey burning down my throat, "I-I-I don't actually know" my voice stuttered and slurred. I turned my head to look around the dimly lit corridors, the room span in slow motion making my brain feels fuzzy and my body limp. My arms and legs felt heavy and yet numb, the only thing i could feel was Draco's arms loop underneath my legs and around the underneath of my arms. I felt my whole body lift from the ground and Draco hold me close to his body, "God Bellamy you have me doing crazy things".

I don't remember the walk back to wherever i ended up. Warmth covered me as Draco laid me down somewhere gently, i felt down for the lace on my dress and felt soft cotton on my body, i turned my head to see through the dim lighting ; my dress was folded neatly next to me on a nightstand with my shoes sat next to them ."You ok Lucy?" he whispered as i felt him lay next to me and pull a sheet over he both of us. I turned my head and saw his face inches from mine, "I'm ok" i managed to whisper back to him "I'm just tired Draco". He gently ran his fingers through my hair, carefully untangling any knots he came across, "Go to sleep then Bellamy". I began to close my eyes, but quickly opened them once again to see him still contently staring at me.
"Draco?" i whispered,
"Yes Bellamy",
"I don't like the silence, will you talk to me until i go to sleep" i slurred my words out my head still spinning. I expected him to laugh at me and began to regret saying what i said; but he didn't instead he began to softly talk while looping my hair around his fingers. "You know Bellamy, i've never seen a girl so beautiful. Your hair forever sits perfectly on your shoulders and always slightly tumbles down, there's always a sparkle of life in your eyes, that smile is enough to make anyone want to give their life for you. Tonight i couldn't keep my eyes off you, the way you move; you breathe in the music like it's your oxygen. You have me mesmerised" his words were soft and full of meaning, i pushed myself closer to him and rested my head in the crease of his shoulder. His voice was so soft it managed to still my dizziness. I softly took a deep breath in taking in his scent and presence, my eyes closed and drifted to the peaceful darkness of sleep. There was only one thing i heard before i fell deep into sleep.
