The rose which started it all

Chapter 3. Addiction

Hogwarts, October 4

Y/n POV
I dreamed about him again this night...
His name was stuck in my head.
"Oh Draco Malfoy, your just as addictive as drugs, I whispered for myself.

Draco's POV
Y/n was staring at me again... I noticed it every time but I didn't have anything against it. She was kinda fine actually. To be honest I saw her in my dream last night. She just stood there quietly staring at me and so did I. It felt like she lit a little inside of me that keeps growing and is dragging me towards her like a magnet stronger and stronger for each moment.

Y/n POV
I walked from transfiguration to my next class, potions. I wonder what we will make today.
I have potions with the slytherins so Draco will be there too...

I walked down into the dungeons, through the door to the potions classroom and sat down by a desk. Unfortunately, non of my friends would be having this class...

"Welcome to today's lesson"
Snape's deep voice echoed in the room.
"Today we're making Amortentia. Johnson! Can you tell us what Amortentia is?"

The ravenclaw looked distraught and scared.
"N-no sir." she stuttered as an answer.

"And I thought ravenclaws were supposed to be smart!"
All the slytherins started snickering.
"Anyways, Parkinson? Can you tell us what Amortentia is?"

"Of course professor! It's a love potion. It doesn't create love, just obsession with something you already love. You can smell things you like and you're attracted to in the potion."
She gave Draco a longing glaze.

"Correct! 10 points for slytherin, I knew my slytherins wouldn't disappoint me."
Snake answered.

The slytherins smirked at the ravenclaws and I rolled my eyes.

"I'm gonna sort you in pairs! Slytherins and ravenclaws, I think the ravenclaws will need a talented slytherin in order not to blow the whole place in pieces."
Snape said and the slytherins laughed .

Snape read some names, then I heard a familiar name.
"Draco Malfoy and... y/full/n."

I felt butterflies in my stomach! I felt happy, but nervous.
Draco sat down next to me.

He smirked at me and I felt like falling.
We started to make our potion and shared a talk while making it. He was really easy to talk to, to my surprise, and we laughed a lot.

"It should be done now? Can you smell anything?" Draco asked me.

I bent over the cauldron and sniffed it's holographic steams. I could smell sweet honeybeer, the smell of the ocean next to my house and an unknown smell, it was some sort of expensive cologne smelling like a fresh pine forest combined with green apples.

It smelled wonderful!
I looks up from the cauldron and gave Draco a smile.
"It works. We made it!"  I told him with excitement in my voice.

Draco bent over the cauldron to smell the amortentia.
He started to breathe heavier and then looked up. He really seemed to enjoy the smell, I wonder what he can smell? But I can't ask him that, it would be a way too personal question.

"Time's up!" Snape said, everyone stood still.
Snape started checking our potions. One other pair had succeeded in making amortentia.
Snape walked over to our cauldron and smelled our potion.
"Perfect. 10 points to slytherin and ravenclaw, even though all of us know that it's thanks to Draco's talent in brewing potions and not Y/l/n's."

The slytherins started laughing and I just rolled my eyes.
"Class dismissed!"

Later that day during dinner I felt a knock on my shoulder and I could smell the unknown smell I smelled earlier today in the amortentia. I turned around, there stood Draco Malfoy...

"Hey Y/n, you forgot your book"
he said and held out my potions book.
I took it.
"Thank you Draco!"
I answered him and he walked over to the slytherin table and sat down.

Oh no... If I could smell him in my amortentia then it's more than just a crush, I'm in love with Draco Malfoy and he's nothing but trouble...
