before i knew it, it was free period.

i had told bella and laney i was going to the library to study for herbology. after they were done calling me boring they finally left me go.

________

i run down to the room of requirements, but as i turn a corner i see oliver walk towards me.

"juliet!" he yells, jogging over to me.

"hello." i say, still walking to the room of requirements.

"where are you off to? you look like you're in a hurry."

"uhm- i have to meet someone about homework."

i lied because i think it would be weird to say i was meeting with draco. like given that he's hated me since forever. even i find it weird.

we reach the room of requirements, and i come to a stop.

"well im going to go- but i'll see you later?" oliver says smiling down at me.

"yep."

he waves and takes off walking in the opposite direction.

i take a deep breath and watch him leave my sight before entering the room of requirements.

"dra-"i mumble, looking around the room for him as soon as i enter.

"you're late." draco's voice says from behind me.

i spin around.

"uhm sorry, oliver was-"

"oliver?" he questions, furrowing his eyebrows.

"yeah he-"

"i don't care." he states and grabs my arm leading me to a leather couch.

i sit down while he rummages through a brown tote bag that sits beside some boxes.

"here." he says, turning around and throwing an apple in my direction.

i throw my hands over my head to protect myself. instead of catching the stupid apple. the apple falls to my feet.

"dumbass." he mutters, walking over to me. he bends down and grabs the apple. then he throws it on my lap and gets up.

"sorry." i say and pick the apple up to inspect it.

it's green. just like the other apple.

"so you really do have snacks here, i thought it was just a joke."

"why would you think that?" he questions and i could've sworn i saw a smirk on his face.

i shrug and take a bite out the apple.

"so you literally just eat here?"

"yes." he glares at me and rolls his eyes.

what was that for?

"and i work on a project."

"what kind of project?" i ask excitedly.

"none of you fucking business mican."

i look away from him and back at the floor.

"cool."

he laughs and stands up.

"im going to go work on it now, okay?" he asks, standing before me.

"okay." i respond and get up.

"i'll just leave-"

"why the fuck would you leave?" he snaps, turning his attention fully on me.
