[A Bet]

7

  It's been two weeks of me and Malfoy sneaking around. I thought he would have asked me to be his girlfriend by now but I don't want to put any pressure on him.

I'm in his dorm once again from a hookup, I wanted to be his, I wanted him to be mine. I actually caught feelings for him. Zoey doesn't even know i've been sneaking around with him. I didn't want to tell her because nothing was official. We still had to pretend like we hated each other in front of Pansy and Blaise and them.

||TIME JUMP||

I get to breakfast and sit down with Ricky as usual
"Hey Elle."
"Morning Ricky."
He passes me his pieces of bacon just as every morning they serve it, he doesn't like it.
"Thanks Ricky."
"No prom- woah Michelle, who's the lucky guy?"
He asks with a grin.
"W-what?"
He clears his throat.
"Erm, your neck."
My eyes widen as I remember last night, forgetting Draco left marks. I jump up and grab my bag.
"Uhm I have to go."
He just chuckles and turns his attention back to his food.
I rush out and into the girls restroom. Thank merlin it's empty.
I run over to my mirror to see big purple marks all over my neck. The further I move my collar down the darker and bigger the marks get.
"Oh my merlin."
I say sighing while shutting my eyes, putting all my weight onto the sink.
"Michelle, is that you?"
A soft voice calls from behind me. I turn my head quickly to meet eyes with Luna.
"Merlin, thank god it's just you."
"Glad your happy to see me, are you okay? You seemed stressed."
"Yeah, yes everything fine it's just-"
I cut off immediately realizing I was about to tell her about Draco.
"It's just what?"
"Can I trust you Luna? Can you keep a secret, even from Zoey."
"Oh god your not pregnant are you?"
"Oh merlin no."
"Thank the lord, but yes i'd like to say i'm trustworthy."
I sigh and look down.
"I've been hooking up with Malfoy.."
I say almost ashamed looking down.
"Oh- oh my merlin."
"Luna please don't tell anyone."
"I- I won't."
"Thank you, he- he left marks last night and Ricky noticed this morning, by chance do you have any makeup perhaps?"
"Oh course."

A few minutes past and Luna's covering my neck in makeup.
"These bloody marks are really dark Michelle."
"Yeah yeah, are you almost done?"
"Almost."
A few more seconds pass.
"And i'm done!"
I turn towards the mirror and see my neck almost bland. There's still a few purple patches but not that noticeable.
"Oh my goodness Luna I love you! Thank you so much."
I say pulling her into a hug.
"Your welcome."
"I have to get to class, i'll catch you around Luna."
"Okay!"
I walk out and the halls are empty. Shit, class has started. I speed walk to my first period.

||TIME SKIP||

The first two periods weren't bad, other than bloody Granger beating me to every question. I'm on my way to third period, which is what I have with Draco. I think from our past month of taking notes and shit about amortenia we are actually going to brew it and test it. I was going to make a fool of myself if I smell Draco.

I arrive late once again, luckily I sneak in quiet enough for Snape not to hear me. I sit down next to Draco, he is gazing off in the distance so harshly he didn't even see me. I place my hand on his thigh discreetly under the table, that made him snap out of it. He looked over with widened eyes. I give him a kind smile. He gulped and turned back towards Snape. I noticed Snape was talking about amortenia, so I start paying attention.
"-so you may come up here with your partner and grab all the supplies and start brewing."
Everyone got up and grabbed the ingredients, I stay seated while Draco got everything. He came back and say everything down while the class started to talk.
"So what do we do first."
I ask, since I missed out on the first 10 minutes of class.

We finally finish with our potion when it starts becoming clear the more we stir it.
"Well done Mr.Malfoy and Ms.Parkinson, at your own time you may smell it."
A smile grew on my face as I was exited about being done first, as was Draco. We looked at each other and I excitedly hugged him, he hugged back but after a few seconds of realizing we just HUGGED in front of every student we quickly pulled apart. Now it was awkward but he broke the tension.
"Uhm, do you want to smell first?"
"Ern, sure."
I move my face towards the brewing potion but all I can smell is Draco's cologne.
"Bloody hell Draco, I cant smell anything over your cologne."
I say chuckling but he isn't laughing.
"I didn't wear any cologne today."
He says with a shit eating smirk. That's when I realized I smelt him in my amortenia and he knew about it. I got very embarrassed as students started howling, since they overheard. I grab my bag and run out of the class, into the Slytherin common room. I sit on the leather couch very red from what just happened, I hadn't even noticed Blaise sitting in the arm chair.
"Oh erm, sorry Blaise i'll go I didn't see you here."
"Oh no please stay."
He says with a smirk. The hell?
"Oh uh okay."
I sat back down in pure silence, until Blaise broke the silence by moving from the arm chair to the sofa I was at, extremely close.
"So, did you do the homework for first period?"
He asked since we have the first period together.
"Oh yeah."
He slid even closer and put his arm around me.
"That's good, you've always been good at school."
"Oh uhm yeah I guess."
He put his hand on my thigh slowly moving it up.
"You should tutor me sometime."
He says with an even bigger grin. He reached under my skirt when I tried to pry his hand off my thigh but he wouldn't budge and he squeezed tighter.
"Blaise."
I said sternly. He didn't respond still sliding up my thigh.
"Blaise."
I said sternly again still no answer.
"Blaise please stop."
"Oh come on let's have a little fun."
He says leaning in and squeezing one of my breasts.
"Blaise please sto-"
I get interrupted when someone walks in, I look up to see Draco. Once he sees Blaise on me his eyes dart to him.
"What the hell, get off her Zabini."
He says rushing over to Blaise pulling him off of me. He throws him on the ground and throws a punch, then another and another. I was frozen in shock but soon snapped out of it when I realized Blaise was bleeding out of his mouth.
"Draco stop your going to kill him!"
I say trying to pull Draco off of him but he doesn't budge.
"Draco please stop!"
I say, my eyes getting glassy. Draco stops hitting him and gets off of him. He looks at me and realised my eyes were watering. He ran over to me and hugged me.
"Are you okay?"
"Y-yeah."
"Come on."
He says gently pulling up to his dorm.
