Autumn: it was the next day (a friday) after the whole incident with Cedric. He was confusing me. One minute asks to hang out and adds love at the end of the letter and the next he's out making out with Cho. I woke up staring at the ceiling I sighed and decided to start my day. I hopped out of bed and slipped on my yellow bear slippers I was wearing a white tank top and grey shorts. I rubbed my eyes and right before I walked in the bathroom I heard a knock, "Who is it?!" I asked hoping it wasn't Cedric. "It's Malfoy!" The blonde boy said. "One second!" You shouted you unlocked the door and she Draco standing there. "It's early what do you want?" You said with your raspy voice. "Your mom wanted me to let you know that today we have to grade papers when class is dismissed.." he said "oh okay" you said. He then scoffed and looked down at your slippers "nice slippers dork" you rolled your eyes and smiled. You shut the door and began to get ready.

You walked out of your dorm and headed to the dining hall you then saw Luna and she saw you. "Hey Autumn!" She said "Hey Luna!" You said smiling "we should hang out later in my dorm!" You said "of course! I'm going to hogsmeade today so I'll buy us some candy and other goodies!" She said smiling "sounds fantastic but..sadly I have to grade papers with Malfoy so let's say hmmm..4:00 pm?" "Sounds great!" She said. You walked into the dining hall and sat down and started to eat, you weren't that hungry so you just had some strawberries and a piece of toast you then started to mess with your rings anxiously at the fact that cedric was entering the dining hall. As soon as you saw him you stood up and left. You walked passed him with your head down as he tried to grab your hand you snatched it away.

It was the end of the day and your last class was coming to an end you sat next to Malfoy taking your notes as he would annoy you once and awhile taking your quill and ink so you took your notes  before you started practicing your spells. "EXPELLIARMUS" you shouted sending Draco's wand across the room. You covered your mouth as he looked at you and started to laugh. You had practiced your spells on one another until class was finished. Your mom went to go leave leaving you and Draco alone grading papers. You started to grade them leaving side notes and twisting your hair while Draco remained sitting on top of your mothers desk fiddling with his wand complaining that it had a tiny scratch on it. You ignored him because you knew he wouldn't listen to you if you asked him to help. Malfoy went to the bathroom promising he would help when he got back. When he got back you were already finished and started gathering your things to leave.

You were upset because he didn't even help before he went to the bathroom. You ignored him and you could tell he felt bad your hand was red from all the writing you did. "Autumn.." Draco said looking down on you. "Save it Malfoy." You said he then grabbed your hand and pulled you close to his chest you looked up at him as he held your hands rubbing his fingers against your rings. "I'm sorry." He said, you put your head down and scoffed "it's fine Malfoy." You looked up at him  as your eyes locked he wrapped his arms around your torso and kissed you. You kissed him back with slight hesitation but as it happened you let it happen. You wrapped your arms around his neck and he pick you up and wrapped  your legs around his torso after a few more seconds he sets you down and you very slightly punch his chest. You giggle and give him a kiss on the cheek. You just kissed Draco Malfoy.
