Dead To Me

Avonlea

I walk past the broom cupboard, towards my room. Just before i pass it, i see the handle turn, and Pansy walks out, fixing her red lipstick. I stop and stare for a second. as she winks at me and walks the other way, just as Draco walks out, his shirt unbuttoned and his hair messed up. He looks up.

Draco: A-

I roll my eyes and walk off. My cheeks are burning and i put my hands to them. Fuck, jealousy ? no. i chose. i made my decision and it was the right one... but he doesn't even take time before he's fucking someone else. of course he doesn't. i don't know why i expect anything else, from Draco. Draco Malfoy. once again i'm being stupid, and i try to push the thoughts of him, and me, and everything out my head, thinking about my girlfriend and the party and anything... everything that doesn't include him.

I spin around, in the mirror. Fuck i chose well. The tight fitting red dress sparkles, somehow, in the reflection of the mirror, and as i look at myself, i smile. i feel okay, it's okay, it's going to be okay. I take a deep breathe, as i hear a knock at the door. Luna walks in, her blue dress ending just above her ankles, where she has a new, sparkly anklet... one which i bought her.

Avon: Blue

Luna: Red

We laugh, as she walks up to me and kisses me. I smile, and kiss her back.

Avon: you look, absolutely beautiful darling

She laughs and takes my hand, leading me out the room, and down the corridor, and i'm trying not to, but i find myself looking around, trying to see a familiar, tall blond male, remembering how much he loved me in red. how it always made him look me up and down and, and made his eyes have that little sparkle which made me know exactly what he was thinking... how he was thinking. and when i don't, i try not to feel disappointed, try not to feel my heart sinking a little bit. And just keep walking.
