PART THIRTEEN: A Discussion With Draco

(Aubrey x Luna x Draco)

-Aubrey's POV-

I walked into the Slytherin common room and was instantly greeted by Luna, Draco, Crabbe and Goyle, who were all in mid-discussion about something that had happened in Draco's class yesterday. Luna got up and gave me a hug and so did Draco. 

"Hey Aubrey!" Luna greeted, pulling me in. 

"Hey Luna, Hi Draco! and Hello to you too, boys." I said, nodding my head in their direction, they both responded with the same gesture. 

Draco got up and offered me his seat. I looked at him in an expression that was asking if he was sure, and he smiled at me. 

"Of course i'm sure, go on, sit down." Draco assured me. 

He then decided that the edge of the table was a seat, and sat himself down on it. He was facing all of our direction and was just about to introduce me to the conversation, when Pansy Parkinson decided to skip her way in, I rolled my eyes. 

"Dracooooooo" Pansy called out, running towards him with her arms outstretched. 

Everyone here knew that Draco really wasn't a fan of Pansy, at all. He'd always cringe when she came around or decided to just show up, and really, it was just a tad bit creepy how she knew where to find him all the time. As she ran around the sofa in attempt at getting to Draco, I 'accidentally' out stretched my foot, and placed it down subtly, knowing she wouldn't look where she was going, anyway. 

Running, she came around the sofa and just as I had figured, she didn't see my foot and she went toppling forward, but didn't meet the floor. Draco slapped a hand over his mouth in attempt to stop himself laughing, but Crabbe and Goyle set it off. Sure enough, I joined in along with Luna and it didn't take much for Draco to break, he laughed hysterically. 

"You might want to watch where you're going, Parkinson. It might save you next time" Draco pointed out, and Pansy shot him a glare. 

She stood up, straightened her Slytherin jumper, and stormed off back in the opposite direction, not glancing over her shoulder once and it was probably for the better, because it would just set everyone here off again. 

"Anyway" Draco said, turning back towards us, he leant forward and intertwined his hands together.

"So when Paige and Lex got kicked out of Moody's class, I saw Alexis turn to one of the people that were being rude and it sounded like she had told them where to go" Draco continued,

"To be honest, I wanted to turn and say something to the group that were making comments, but I knew that Lex could hold her ground, but Paige? I never thought i'd ever see her stand up to someone, she seems too nice." Draco said, looking surprised. 

"Yeah, Paige does have a temper, but she manages to hold it back quite a lot" Luna mentioned, and I nodded in agreement. 

"She does." 

Draco's eyebrows raised and he nodded his head slowly, whilst pulling a 'fair enough' face. 

"Although I will say, it was amusingly hot to see Alexis all pissed off" Draco smirked. 

Me and Luna looked at each other and chuckled, and by the looks of it, Crabbe and Goyle did the same thing. Turning our heads back to Draco, I noticed he was lost in thought after that comment, and me, Crabbe, Goyle and Luna all decided to leave him to his devices, since we had to get ready for some classes before the evening. 

Draco looked up and smiled once he had zoned out and turning to me and Luna he told us something. 

"If any of you are wondering where Lisa is, she was at Quidditch practise again this morning, the games next week, so she wanted to squeeze extra practise in" Draco said, and nodded us on. 

We both walked on and Luna was suddenly tapped on her arm, I said goodbye and let her be, walking off with the two boys. 

-Luna's POV-

Draco had tapped me on the arm as I began to walk away, and Aubrey parted when she noticed that Draco wanted to talk to me alone. I sat back down, and waited for Draco to speak. 

"Hey Luna?" Draco said in a questioning tone, I looked at him and waited for him to say something.

"Do you know if Alexis is into anyone, like, if she's talking to someone?" Draco asked.
