Blind Sided (Draco Malfoy Love Story)

Chapter Ten.

"I don't want to talk to you either." I frown up at Draco.

Draco continues looking down at me with his signature smirk on his face as he decides to take a seat beside me in the snow, he's sitting too close for comfort and I shimmy away from him. I wipe some more tears away from my face and sniffle a little as I try to focus on watching the snow falling.

"Seriously what's wrong, Ser?" Draco asks me with concern.

I sigh, "Sometimes I just like to lay down in my mind garden, cover myself in dirt, and pretend I'm a potato. In Peace."

I hear him sigh then the soft crunchiness of the snow as he walks away from me, I was hoping that would make him leave me alone. I really don't know what I was going to do with Aster because even though I know she won't tell my secret and she doesn't care about my real blood status, how she reacted still really hurt me. It's a good thing I sent my letter off to my mom earlier and I really can't wait for her reply but maybe right now I could imagine what she would say to me, that might help me a little bit right now with how to deal with everything going on right now.

It's just all too much for one person to be fighting with my two closest friends, especially since we've never really fought before. I close my eyes and start focusing on the problems at hand here, all I can think of that she would say is that I should first try to talk it out with everyone and if that doesn't work than maybe they weren't really my friends with to begin with. I let out a frustrated sigh and finally decide to get up and out of the snow, I start to walk out towards the school with no intentions of going back to the common room where I knew everyone would be. Maybe the astronomy tower since it has such an amazing view of everything, it's also quite peaceful up there since not everyone went there. Probably because they didn't want to risk bumping into Professor Trelawney and getting sucked into some odd prophecy about them dying or something, she really wasn't that bad of a teacher but she's just a bit... Odd. But that's what I like about her.

I make my way through the corridors and then up the stairs, not a whole lot of people out today with the snow fall. Just as I'm about to reach the top I see an outline of someone. Except by the time I figure out who it is, it's too late for me to turn the other way. It's Draco. He's turned around to see who's come up and looks as though he's just about to tell me to go away but his facial expression softens when he sees that it's me.

"Seronia... I was hoping it was you." he says to me.

"I've interrupted something... I'll leave you." I turn to go leave.

But I feel his hand on my elbow as he stops me from leaving.

"No stay.. Please." he asks me.

I turn to look up at him and see such a gentle facial expression on him as he silently pleads for me to stay up here with him. I hang my head in defeat and sigh as an unspoken agreement before walking up the last couple of steps before I'm by his side. Draco doesn't let go of my hand as we walk over to the window together, I look out at the beautiful scenery where everything is covered in snow before a violent shiver goes through my entire body. Without saying a word Draco pulls me closer to him and half covers me with his own cloak.

"You know you really need to stop laying in your.... mind garden when it's snowing out like this." Draco half heartedly chuckles a little.

"Draco... Why are you talking to me again?" I look up at him and into his grey eyes.

"I missed you.. That's why," he doesn't look at me, "I thought that if I uh messed around with Pansy it would get your attention."
