Unforgettable (D.M.)

Chapter 2: Buttercup

I walk out of the girls dorm and I see Harry and Ron talking amongst one another. I smile and I walk up to them.

"Good Morning." Ron says, which causes my cheeks to go pink for some reason. Ron and I have this flirty thing going on between us which has been happening since first year and now we're in fifth year.

"Where is Hermione?" Harry asks me, I take my eyes away from Ron and I look at Harry.

"I'm pretty sure she left early this morning, she probably went to the library to study for our upcoming test in defense against the dark arts." I explain, both the boys nod and start heading towards the door. I follow closely behind them.

We soon make it to the library and we go inside, I see Hermione reading a book at the table with Ginny. They both start laughing and we join them.

"What's so funny?" Ron questions as we approach the table. Both their heads look up at us.

"Oh nothing, Ginny just made a joke about Malfoy and Maya." Hermione says with a smirk, my eyebrows arch in.

"Ew, don't ever use my name and his in the same sentence again." I say with crossed arms. We all start laughing.

"Why must you all be so loud? We are in the library." Umbridge says in frustration at us. Everyone stops laughing but I can't help but keep a smile on my face.

"Wipe that smile off your face before you get yourself in trouble." She says.

"How is smiling going to get me in trouble?" I question.

"Oh ma'am, you are standing on thin ice." She tells me, I roll my eyes at her.

"No really, would you please enlighten me on how smiling, smiling.. is going to get me in trouble, because I would love to know the reasoning." I snap back.

"That's it! Everyday after school, for a week, you will be attending professor Snape's classroom for detention." Umbridge demands.

"What!!?? That's so unfair, I didn't even do anything!" I yell at her.

"Oh and.. 20 points are taken from Gryffindor house. Good day miss Wright." She says and walks away with a smirk on her face.

"She can't do that, all I did was smile." I say in anger.

"Yeah, she can really get on all of our nerves." Harry says, I sigh. This is so dumb, I shouldn't have to go to detention. I did nothing wrong, and this is beyond foolish.

I leave my last class of the day and I walk into detention when I see a lovely face for once. Maya is here.. I always knew she was pure Slytherin. I put a smirk on my face and I sit down next to her.

"Hello buttercup, fancy seeing you here." I say, and I add a quick wink. I watch her roll her eyes and cross her arms.

"Do not call me that." She replies.

"Ok, then what do you want to be called?" I question. She turns her head to look at me, and I raise my eyebrows at her.

"Go away." She answers, I tilt my head in confusion.

"Nah, I think I'll stick with buttercup." I say and I turn towards Snape. She goes to say something when I stop her.

"I-"

"Shhh, no talking when Snape is talking, you know the rules, don't you buttercup?" I question and she just turns away from me.

"Just be quiet and behave and we shouldn't have a problem. I have to go speak with professor Dumbledore at this moment, but professor Mcgonagall will be across the room so don't even think about trying to leave while I'm gone." Snape says and he leaves the room, so the only ones left in here are Maya and I.

"How come there aren't any other students here?" Maya asks, I smirk at her.

"Maybe it's fate." I reply and I wink at her, and just like before she rolls her eyes at me.

"Get your head out of your ass Malfoy, I don't like you. So stop trying, because whatever it is you're trying to do is not working!" She yells at me.

"So who are you taking to the yule ball next week?" I ask her, completely dodging everything she just said to me.

"Not you, that's for sure." She says with her arms crossed. Then her face brighten's up.

"What is it? Did you finally realize that you're in love with me?" I question, keeping my smirk strong.

"Not in a million years ferret boy, I was actually thinking about asking Ron." Maya says, as she begins to blush. Ugh, gross.

"You like weaselbee? How pathetic." I say, adding a bit of laughter.

"At least he isn't a classic bully like you." She says angrily.

"I am not a bully!" I yell at her.

"Ok, then what do you call pushing little first years around, insulting Harry any chance you get, making fun of Ron and his family because they aren't rich like you, calling Hermione a mudblood, and-"

"Ok ok, I get it." I cut her off.

"Exactly. You are a bully Malfoy, you have proved to me that you are exactly what I thought you were in these past few years. Maybe if you just would have tried to prove me wrong we could be... fr- frien-"

"Friends?" I question.

"Yeah, that. But you didn't try. And I'm sorry, well I'm not sorry. But your flirty little comments aren't going to work on me." She tells me.

"We'll see about that. Have a good rest of your night buttercup." I say and I start heading for the door.

"Where are you going? You heard Snape, you can't leave." She says.

"Aww, miss me already?" I question, she rolls her eyes.

"No. Leave if you want, I don't care." She crosses her arms.

"Ok then, goodbye buttercup." I send a wink her way before leaving the room.
