I slid into my seat in Potion's class, right beside Pansy. She was giggling, and when Professor Snape came in, I realized why. He announced that we were going to be brewing Amortentia today.
I wasn't really excited. I didn't care much about "love" or stuff. I didn't really get it, but oh well I'm fifteen.

"Mine will smell of lemon and cauldron cakes." Pansy stated.
"Lemon?" I asked, but my question was answered as I followed her gaze to Luna Lovegood. I smiled. I shipped them. Pansy was always nice to Luna, and stopped a lot of people from picking on her.

As we got to brewing the potion, my nostrils began filling with a mixture of smells. I finished my potion in about ten minutes, really. I took a large whiff, while Blaise, Pansy, Draco, and Theodore all stared at me.

"Sooooo?" Theo squealed.
I laughed, "I don't know, Theo. I smell...uhm- mint? And-" I widened my eyes as I realized what I was smelling, or more precisely, who I was smelling. My eyes met Draco's, who was looking at me curiously.

"And uh- petrol." I lied.

"Petrol?"
"Oh right. It's this liquid to fuel cars in the muggle world. It smells amazing!"
The others groaned, obviously expecting a juicier result. In my defence, what I smelled definitely made for hot gossip, but I couldn't possibly tell them I fancied Draco Malfoy!? He had been my friend for years, and he wasn't looking for anything more. Well, he never said that but why in the world would Draco feel that way about me?

Blaise revealed what he smelled in his potion, snapping me out of my thoughts.
"Hibiscus? Who smells like that!?" I heard Theo say.
"Ginny Weasley." I replied, causing the gang to go "oooooo", while Blaise blushed.
Pansy smelled exactly what she had anticipated, and Theo claimed he smelled vanilla, but I knew he actually smelled whatever Potter smelled like. He had had a crush on Harry since 2nd year, but no one really knew about it.

Lastly, every one of us turned to face Draco, who loosened his tie and took a whiff of his potion.
"Nothing."
"What?" "Bullshit" "There is no way you love nothing!"
The others kept commenting, but my heart stopped.

Why did he look at me when he said that he smelled nothing?

Maybe I was reading too much into it. Maybe it was just wishful thinking. I bit my lip, and tried not to think about Malfoy the rest of the class.

After class

I was walking out of the class, along with the others, when Draco whispered in my ear, "My dorm. Now."
Shivers ran down my spine at the sensation of his lips so close to my ear, and I nodded, genuinely curious.
I said goodbye to the gang and sneaked into Draco's dorm.

Suddenly, Draco spun me around and pinned me to a wall, blocking me with his arms. His sleeves were rolled up, and I could see his muscles. FOCUS, Y/N. FOCUS!

"I know you smelled more, y/n."
"No, I told you what I smelled."
He moved even closer, his lips just inches away, and whispered, "I can tell when you lie."

His breath on my face made me feel something. Something I couldn't explain.

"I- I wasn't lying."

This time he didn't push me for an answer, but instead he spoke softly.
"I did. I didn't smell nothing. I smelled you."

I was stunned. Literally stunned. He tucked a loose strand of my hair behind my ear and looked me right in the eyes.
"Tell me. What did you really smell?"

"You."

There was silence. Utter silence. But then Draco suddenly closed the little distance between us, crashing his lips on mine. I was surprised, but I let him in. Our tongues danced in a rhythm, and I was already addicted. I clutched his tie and pulled him closer, and he happily obliged, his one hand on my cheek and another on my lower back, holding me tight.

There were butterflies in my stomach as he broke our kiss and connected his lips to my ears, whispering, "I know."
