Blind Sided (Draco Malfoy Love Story)

Chapter Twelve.

After I had threatened Umbridge we went back to our common room where we had been greeted with chaos, a third year decided to insult Aster and Fred as well. I ended up taking some house points away and threatened to go to Snape or Dumbledore if they kept it up, I had nearly forgotten the fact that I'm a prefect. Regardless the situation was handled and at this current moment Aster, Blaise, and I were sneaking off to attend the DA meeting. It honestly wasn't easy to sneak off but saying that I had homework to do and that I would be in the library for awhile seemed to work just fine thankfully, I didn't like lying to him about it after we just started talking to each other again. Quite literally.

"What's going on with you and Draco?" Blaise breaks the silence with a whisper.

"What are you talking about? Nothing is going on between us." I say nonchalantly while checking to see if the coast was clear.

A couple of students walk by and we're in the clear to sneak into the room of requirement finally, the three of us stand in front of the blank wall focusing on the DA meeting. Appearing before us was a large door so we stood there impatiently until it's finally done and we can open the door, I reach out and literally pull with all my strength to get the dumb thing open. Blaise had to help out. As soon as I walked in everyone that was already here (which we were the last to arrive) had stopped talking and just kinda glared at me, except the trio of course but regardless this has kind of been my treatment since the first lesson. I don't mind of course because at the end of the day I still haven't spilled the beans about all of this and I definitely had the opportunities to do it.

The door disappears behind us and leaves just a mirrored wall reflecting back onto us, I clear my throat and go to stand over in a corner as I usually did. Aster goes over to Fred and hugs him while Blaise stands at my side in silence that goes on until some Hufflepuff speaks up.

"Why do you let her continue to come to meetings? Isn't she like Malfoy's girlfriend?" the boy sneers at me before looking back at Potter.

I roll my eyes and cross my arms.

"I thought Pansy Parkinson was his girlfriend? The pair have been snogging a lot lately haven't you seen?" a Ravenclaw girl pipes up.

Again I roll my eyes.

"Point is, she's in Malfoy's gang. So why is she here? How do we know she won't run off to Umbridge the first chance she gets?" the same Hufflepuff drones on for another couple minutes.

I wasn't really paying attention honestly until I heard someone refer to me as just another elitist pureblood. I step out of my corner and they back up a little except for the trio, the twins, and Aster.

"For your information I don't share the same views as Draco because I'm not even a pureblood like him because I'm a muggleborn!" I start defending myself, "If I wanted to tell Umbridge then believe me I could've told her already but that stupid pink blob hates me! Not to mention most of Slytherin because I didn't drop Aster as my best friend!"

Then it hits me.. I just told a bunch of strangers I'm not actually a pureblood and that I'm actually a muggleborn. Shit shit shit! I spent five years protecting my secret and then blow it by telling these morons! I look to Aster for help and she's in as much shock as I am that I just blurted it out. Shit.

"If any of you breathe a word of this outside of this room, it won't be Draco that you have to worry about bothering you and this little club is over." I tell them while making a point to look at Blaise.

The group and Blaise nod in agreement with slight fear in their eyes, that's when Harry takes a step forward and then faces the group.

"Seronia is on our side, if she wasn't then she wouldn't be here. Believe me, Ron and Hermione weren't sure if they wanted her either but we can trust her," Harry starts explaining, "Besides she's crucial in today's lesson."
