Opposites Attract

Chapter four: the project

Later that day I get back to my room and set my work on my bed. I go over to my wardrobe and change into leggings and a grey hoodie with the Gryffindor symbol on it. I waited for Draco in the common room while talking with my friends. Time passed and I was the only one left in the common room so I decided to finish my first half of the project.
Draco-"BOO!" I jumped.
Y/N-"Real funny Malfoy." I said sneering at him. I stand up.
Draco-"So should we do this in here?"
Y/N-"Uhmm nah. Someone might come out and bother us. Let's go into my room."
Draco-"Kinky."
Y/N-"Don't."
Draco-"What's the matter Y/L/N? You don't like jokes?"
Y/N-"Jokes are supposed to be funny"
Draco-"I see."
We get to my room and he sits on my bed and I sit in my chair at my desk.
Y/N-"So did you pick your potion yet?"
Draco-" Yeah, liquid luck. You?" (This potion takes up to 6 months to make so let's pretend that it's pre-made by the professor...it's a luck potion)
Y/N-"Veritaserum" (truth potion)
Draco-"Sweet"
Y/N-"I'll look in the book and see what other information we can add."
Draco-"okay."
Draco and I have been working and trying to figure out what else to add and finding different hypotheses for about an hour now and we haven't found good enough information. Draco was off track just looking around on my bed and I was sitting at my desk looking in the book.
Draco-"This is boring"
Y/N-"Shh I'm thinking"
Draco-"Come on let's take a breaaak" he keeps complaining so I ignored him while flipping pages in the book. He starts to poke my arm with his wand over and over again. I sigh and roll my eyes.
Y/N-"You are.. exceptionally annoying. you know that?" I said while looking at the book.
Draco-"So I've been told" he stopped poking me. "So..? Can we stop now" I look at him
Y/N-"We have to get this done Draco"
Draco-"It's not due for weeks." He said raising his eyebrows at me. I look back to the book and shut it close.
Y/N-"Fine then. What do you want to do?"
Draco-"I don't know?"
Y/N-"Well..." I laugh mid sentence. "It was your idea to stop." Draco shrugs.
Y/N-"Are you hungry?" I ask slightly smiling
Draco-"Yeah I guess I'm pretty hungry. What do you have?"
Y/N-"Do cookies sound okay?" He nods his head yes.
I left the room to go get them from Hermiones  because she said I could help myself from her batch. Malfoy is different today. I don't know if it's because we're alone or what but he's more calm, nicer than usual. I like it. He's always so uptight and says anything rude that comes to mind but tonight...the only things he's said have been sarcastic. In an actual funny way. Sorta. I don't know if I should trust him or not but I won't let my guard down. I enter back into my room with the cookies.
Y/N-"Here." I said smiling handing them to him. Better not tell them Hermione made them or he might not want them. I watched Draco wander around my room looking at my things and my posters on the wall. He picks up a stuffed bear from my dresser.
Draco-"What's his name?" He looks at me smirking.
Y/N-"Ohh uhh" I stammered, Embarrassed because I still name my stuffed toys. "Jerry" I said looking out the window.
Draco-"Where did that name come from?"
Y/N-"My great grandfather..it's something that's been passed through my family for a while"
I expected him to mock me for still having toys but he was actually pretty normal about it.
Draco-"Oh" he said. "Something wrong with that?" He said while pointing at a green Apple on on my desk. 🍏;)
Y/N-"No I just don't want it"
Draco-"Can I have it?"
Y/N-"Yeah sure" he took a bite out of it and plopped on my bed causing his bag to fall over and his cologne fell onto the ground.
Draco-"Oops can't let my knock off cologne get on ur floor" he said and I rolled my eyes
Y/N-"Hilarious."
Draco-"You think it smells that bad?" He said while he put it back in his bag. I thought about saying it stinks but In all honesty it's not that bad. It isn't too strong, it smells nice. His personal scent is whats rather intimidating, his personality is sickening but whenever I inhale I can catch a smell of him and it gives me butterflies. Why?? I don't know.
Y/N-"No."
Draco-"No!?" He looked puzzled. "I thought you hated it?"
Y/N-"Not exactly...I guess..." I stopped mid sentence, feeling nervous to tell him the truth.
Draco-"What is it?" He said getting off the bed and taking a step closer to me
Y/N-"I guess I just said it because I wanted to hurt your feelings like you hurt mine." I said looking down at my scuffed up shoes.
Draco-"Oh..." I didn't say anything I just looked back up at him. "Well I'm sorry for tripping you."
Y/N-"Y-you're what..?!" Draco apologizing was definitely something I'd never expect to hear tonight..or ever for that matter.
Draco-"Don't make me say it again." He said laughing and I smiled.
Y/N-"Apology excepted." I look at the clock and his eyes follow along with me.
Draco-"Sh*t it's 9:49 already. I better get to my dorm curfew is soon.
Y/N-"Yeah probably" I said.
Draco-"I'll see you tomorrow, night." He said walking out of my room
Y/N-"Goodnight" I said smiling.
