Georgia Potter

Chapter Nine

The next morning I am shaken awake by Pansy, "Georgia wake up! You'll miss breakfast" I jump up quickly running into the shower before getting dressed and heading down to the Great Hall. I head over to the Slytherin table but I hear my name it's Harry's friend Ron "Georgia can you please talk to Harry he is absolutely miserable without you"
"He should of thought of that before he insulted my boyfriend and my best friends. I've never insulted you guys." I walked off to the table sitting next to Honey, Honey is excitedly talking to me about our timetable it seems we are doing flying again this year not that I need it but they are going to teach us Quidditch not that I need it but that means more practice for me. Dray is very quiet this morning "Dray are you okay?" He nods sombrely "Harry started on him this morning, telling him that he is ruining you" Honey cuts in, Dray avoids my eyes I climb over the table getting glares from the teachers before climbing into Dray's lap "Look at me" he still refuses to look at me till I tuck my hand under his chin lifting his head up "I love you Draco Lucius Malfoy, you have helped me so much since coming into my life including dealing with being separated from Harry and Harry ignoring me as well as saving me from my horrible Aunt and Uncle. Harry is ruining me by ignoring me and shutting me out. You are saving me" Dray pulls me into a deep passionate kiss "Who knew Georgia Potter could be a romantic" I smile into his shoulder "Now let go to potions and show everyone up with her potion skills!"
"Only because Uncle Sev helped us over the summer"
"Shhh they don't know" he grins as I pull him up to walk to Snape's classroom. We sit near the front, everyone start to walk in Pansy and Blaise sits next to Dray and Vincent and Greg sit next to me. I hear Harry and his crew coming in, the Gryffindors like to make an entrance definitely when they are in class with us Slytherins it seems. Sev walks in "Quiet Mr Potter and Mr Weasley! Sit down" you hear a couple of thumps as they sit down, the Slytherins all laugh quietly before they watch Sev write a recipe on the board, the shrinking potion. I start to grin secretly to myself as I remember giving Pansy the potion, I feel Pansy glare at me as Blaise and Dray start to chuckle quietly. "Right get on with it!" Dray goes to collect the ingredients whilst I set the cauldron up, it takes about an hour to do a potion. As I look around the room, you can see many of the usuals making mistakes with their potions. Neville, Ron and Harry being the usuals, Sev starts to walk round the room making faces and comments to the students whether it is appraisals or criticisms. Sev comes to us "Miss Potter and Mr Malfoy, I am impressed well done" Dray and I high five before tidying our stuff up and leaving the lesson along with everyone else to go to lunch. I decided to study for Astronomy and Charms during lunch as these are my worst subjects, Dray has tried to help but I just find it hard to wrap my head around it. Our next class was Defence Against the Dark Arts with Professor Lockhart, I have heard it has gone really good but that is from the girls who are obsessed with him. From reading his books he is obviously very experienced but just because he write books does not mean he can teach. Before long it is time to head to class, I am apprehensive but I will be open minded as he got to be better than Professor Quirrell he was so nervous then it was revealed he was harbouring Voldemort's body that's why he wore the turban what a weird year. Professor Lockhart was very hyperactive and eager to teach, he spent the whole lesson talking about himself and what he done. The way he described it was too much like the book, it just makes me very ominous surely you would explain it differently but maybe I am being too judgemental. Dray was talking very eagerly about the class. Honey and I decide to go to the Library to do some of the essays we have been doing as well as study for other classes. As I'm studying I can't help wondering how Harry is, as much as he infuriates me is my family and I wouldn't give him up for anyone; but for him to constantly attack Dray my boyfriend and best friend is not on. As I was thinking about him his know it all friend appear "Georgia can I please talk to you?" I nod, I look toward Honey who groaned "Not fair Georgia, not fair" she quickly packs all her stuff before huffing off. I look toward Hermione who is shuffling her feet "Sit down Hermione" she sits down "Georgia, I know Harry has messed up badly by bad mouthing Mal..I mean Draco and he dissed you for being in Slytherin but he needs you more than anything."
"And I need him, but he pushed me away, even after finding out everything he knows. Unless he comes to apologise to me and to Dray, he can need me all he wants" I quickly pack my stuff away "I am sorry Hermione I know this is not what you wanted to hear but Harry has hurt me deeply" Hermione nods, I walk out of the library and walk toward the dungeon before I know it the tears are pouring down my face, I cannot hold myself up much longer. I collapse onto my knees and I cannot help the sob that escapes out of my mouth before long I feel arms wrapped round me, as I'm lifted I realise it is Dray I snuggle into his arms as the tears keep falling. He is whispering sweet nothings in my ears as he walks us back to the Slytherin Common Room; he says the password before leading us to his room. He lays me on his bed and holds me in his arms "what happened?" It was hard to get the words out "Hermione came to talk to me about Harry she wants me to make up with him" I couldn't help the pain in my voice "He hurt me Dray after everything he left me" Dray holds onto me tighter "whatever you want to do I will support you 100%, Potter is family to you and if things go to plan he will be my family too"
