    I sat on the edge of the astronomy tower, looking out to the horizon, it was dark but still just bright enough to make out all of the trees, the lake, the moon reflected off the water, some lights were still on in the castle, but everybody was in bed or preparing tomorrows lessons. I was so focused on the moon I hadn't realized Draco next to me until. "ahem," he cleared his throat.

   "What are you doing here, Malfoy?" I said.

   "Making sure you don't fall off the edge," he said sarcastically.

   "Why are you really here then?"

   "I could ask you the same thing, Crosbie," he said mockingly. Draco looked into the night sky, but my eyes lingered on him. His beautiful ice-blue eyes were a glowing gray against the moon, his skin sparkled like diamonds, his soft lips shone against the moon, his chiseled jawline. He looked at me. "How about you take a picture, it'll last longer."
"Huh, oh. Um. I didn't mean to, um. Sorry?"
"Awww look at that, you're nervous."
"Nervous, HA! Now, why would I be nervous."
"Because you find me attractive."
"Can I not find someone attractive."
"That's not what I said."
"I know," I smirked.
"Don't do that."
"Do what," I looked at him like I didn't know what he was talking about.
"That, that smirk thing, like your teasing me."
"Awww are you nervous," I mocked him.
"No," his face was stern.
"And here we go again."
"What are you talking about."
"Ugh nothing," I stood up and headed back down to my dorm.
    I heard footsteps behind me. I started speed walking, the footsteps kept getting closer, they sped up as I did. My heart was racing, it was so late, I would for sure get a months worth of detention. I couldn't, if my step-father heard, I don't even want to think about how much pain I'd be in. They kept getting closer and closer, I reached the common room. I opened the door, closed it behind me as fast as I could, and bolted it to my dorm.
   
    I felt a hand on my shoulder, I jumped. I turned around to see Draco standing behind me.
    "Why were you running, huh? We're you scared."
    "Yes actually, for my life. Wait, YOU."
    "Mhmm, yep all me," he laughed but I was raging.
    "YOU, OH AM I GONNA!"
    "Going to what? Huh? Are you going to hurt me? Oh, I'm so scared," he mocked me.
    I grabbed him by the collar of his shirt, "No I'm not going to hurt you, but you had me scared for my life, and I'm not going to tolerate that," I dropped him down the steps "You'd better watch it Malfoy, you never know when somethings sneaking up on you." I ran down the hall and stood behind a wall, i hear professor Snape talking to Malfoy, Malfoy sounded scared, first time I've ever heard him scared. Snape didn't give him detention, he let him off with a warning. I reached my dorm and put the key into the lock, I fell onto my bed and drifted off to sleep almost immediately, Draco still on my mind.
