The Slytherin Queen- A Draco x Oc Love Story

Chapter 45 Umbitch

Stephanie sat down next to Draco and Daphne in the Great Hall.

"Ugh stop with the green apples!" Stephanie grabbed the apple from Draco's hand.

"But it's good.."

"It's sour! How could you like that!?"

"Just try it!"

"Fine.." Stephanie bit into the apple and immediately made a face when she tasted the sourness of it. Draco chuckled at her. "That's gross." Draco grabbed the apple back from her and bit into it, where she bit into. "Red is better."

"Nope."

"Fine strawberries are better."

"They can be sour too."

"That's why you dip it into whipped cream, stupid." Stephanie took a strawberry from a platter of fruit and dipped it into a tiny container of whipped cream. She then took a bite of the strawberry. Draco laughed when he saw that some whipped cream was on her face.

"You're so adorable. Here." He leaned in and wiped the cream off her face.

"Oh thank you." They were interrupted when they heard arguing from outside the Great Hall. They go out to inspect the commotion.

"Pardon me, professor, but what exactly are you insinuating?"

"I am merely requesting that

when it comes to my students... you conform to the prescribed disciplinary practices."

"So silly of me, but it sounds... as if you're questioning my authority in my own classroom... Minerva."

"Not at all, Dolores, merely your medieval methods."

"I am sorry, dear. But to question my practices is to question the Ministry... and by extension, the minister himself. I am a tolerant woman... but the one thing I will not stand for is disloyalty."

"Disloyalty.."

"Things at Hogwarts are far worse than I feared. Cornelius will want to take immediate action."

Stephanie was alone in the common room since everyone had classes. She was one of the few Slytherins who had a free period. She knew that the other Slytherins were in the library doing homework so she took this as an advantage. She turned on some music and began singing.

"I put ya hands up in the air like an ogre just don't care! Can you dance the Hippogriff! Flying up from the cliff!" While Stephanie was "singing", more like yelling, she danced and when she turned around she was greeted by a blonde boy with blue eyes. He bursted into laughter. Stephanie turned the music off.

"You're so cute. I love it."

"You're mean." He hugged her. "I hate you." He gasped.

"Fine then." He started walking up to the boys dorm.

"Wait no! I miss you."

"I know. You can't resist me." He went back to her and kissed her cheek. Stephanie sat down on the couch and Draco laid down on it, his head resting in Stephanie's lap. She began to play with his snow colored hair. "Is that my quidditch hoodie that you're wearing?"

"Uhhhh maybe.."

"It looks cute on you and now people know that you're mine."

"What do you mean?"

"My name and number is on the back of the hoodie."

"Oh.. I thought everyone knew that we're dating."

"That mudblood from the other day didn't."

"True.." Stephanie grabbed Draco's hand and held it. She played with one of his rings.

"It's so boring. There's nothing to do."

"Mhm.." Stephanie leaned back on the couch and closed her eyes. She accidentally drifted to sleep. Draco got up, noticing that she fell asleep, and positioned her so that she was laying on the couch instead of sitting. He put a pillow underneath her head and a blanket on top of her. He kissed her forehead.

"Goodnight my princess."

"You applied first for the Defense Against the Dark Arts post, is that correct?"

"Yes."

"But you were unsuccessful?"

"Obviously."

Umbridge left the room after questioning Professor Snape. Ron tried to contain his laughter but got hit with a book instead.

"I swear why does she have to interrogate every single teacher?" Stephanie said.

"Because the stupid ministry." Daphne said.

"Yeah? Well it's annoying. Why can't we just have one normal year?"

"I wish.."

"You know Umbridge might be firing Professor Trelawney." Draco said.

"What!? Why?"

"Apparently her predictions are fake."

"But they're not. She helped me see the future.. She saw my future. I saw my future."

"When did this happen?"

"Fourth year she's been meeting with me so I can control my visions. She helped me see the future too. For example, Potter's going to form a group thing to take down Umbridge or something like that."

"Well we'll see if it's right eventually."

"I also predicted that I was going to be in the tournament and that I was going to meet Viktor Krum and it happened! It's not fake Draco. We literally have a school full of magic and you don't believe this?"

"Well.. she's crazy!"

"So? My father looks evil and cruel but he's actually not."

"Lies." Ron said from across the room. Snape hit him with a book.

"Anyways Dumbledore looks nice and caring but he's a bastard. Favors Gryffindor and Potter. Pathetic excuse for a headmaster." Stephanie whispered to her friends. They nodded in agreement. Class finally ended and everyone left. "I'll see you guys at dinner. Bye!"
