Chapter 2

I smiled at the note he left. I could hardly wait. Although I felt bad about lying to Draco about studying, I realy needed help. So hopefully he doesn't mind. I grabbed my potions work and slowly stalked out of the common room in the halls. "Hey! Arya. " Malfoy yelled running up to me. I thought he was studding? "Hey, Draco. I thought you had to study?" I asked looking into his sea green eyes. "I could ask you the same question, But if you must know I'm tutoring a few people. " No fucking way. "Potions?" I asked him, he nodded. I could practically feel the smile coming across my face. "Well. Sorry to say, your going to get absolutely nowhere with me. " I said my eyes dropping towards the floor. Draco's Face lit up, "Your going to potions to be tutored?" He asked. I nodded and smiled up at him. "Sadly, but I probably need it more that a racoon needs its mask. " I said, earning a low chuckle from him. "Ok, were here. " Draco said holding the potions door open for me. I walked in and started heading towards the very back off the class. "Why the very back?" Malfoy said coming and sitting by me, "So no one can see me fail misrely. " I said looking at him with a Serious face. He smiled, "Your realy that bad?" He asked. I gave him a look, "Do you not recall me almost blowing up the potions lab?" I asked him. He furrowed his brow, "I forgot about that, " he said, smiling.

Draco started fishing threw his bag for his potions work. "Ok, so first you need to learn how to make a warts serum, That's our next test." He said looking at me crossing his arms. "Ok, So do I just start?" I asked. "Yep I got out all of ingredients . " he said. I fished out my Potions book, and flipped to the cure of boils page. Ok, first step. Add four Pungous Onions. I added them both. Then stir counter clockwise. I tried to stir counterclockwise. Was counter clock wise a twirl? was it side to side? Ehh ill just do all of them. Draco got up and walked behind me. "Do you not know how to stir counter clockwise?" Draco asked, a small smile playing at his lips. "Nope. Not at all. He chuckled then moved behind me. Draco put his hand on top of mine, and slowly stirred the pot. I could feel his hot breath crawling on my neck. It was taking all my will power not to lean back, into his muscled chest. Draco reluctantly took his hands of mine and took a step back, "Y-You got it . " He said, his voice unusually shallow. "Do I do the next step?" I asked him, turning. He nodded and went over to sit back down. I grabbed a vial of flobberworm Mucus and slowly added that. The rest of the potions class was a breeze. In fact, Draco didn't help me with anything at all, other than learning how to stir.

"You did realy well. " Draco said at the end of class. I turned to glare at him, as if melting a fucking caldron was 'realy well. 'He chuckled at my glare. "Im serious tho- If you would of learnt how to stir before, then you wouldn't be in a potions tutoring class. And If you stirred correctly you would have made a perfect potion. " Draco said, slowing down his pace to match mine. "Ok, Sure. If you say so Macho man. " I said playfully shoving him, He smiled but his smile quickly fell when he looked behind me. "MALFOY. A. Word. " Blaise said. I turned on my heels, and stared into my twins eyes. He looked furious. He eyes were narrowed, but when he looked at me his eyes softened a bit. A little bit. He isn't going to get all emotional. I could here draco gulp before walking over to a furious blaise. What was he so pissed at?

I decided to head towards the Slytherin common room.

I was lounging on the dark green sofa when a third year sat right next to me. I stopped to look at him for a second. He's cute. I belive his name is terrace higgs. "Hey, Your arya right?" He asked looking at me. His eyes were a Smokey brown. I let out a small smile. "Depends who's asking?" I asked. He chuckled, "I'm taking that as a yes, " he said looking up at me. "Take it how you want it, Sorry to be rude, wait no im not. " I said chuckling to myself, "Do you need something?" I asked. His eyes went wide. "I was wondering if you wanted to maybe go on a date Monday, Its the first Hogsmeade trip. " I said hope laced within his voice. "Im, Sorry but Im going for a walk on Monday. " That sounded so stupid coming out of my mouth, "We could go together?" He asked. "Sorry Im going with someone else, I realy can hang out Monday. "I said picking up my book, hoping Draco would come and yell at him. Can't he take a hint? "Tuesday?" He asked. I let my head fall, "Your cute and all, But I just realy can't hang out with you, Im sorry. " I told him starting up towards my dormitories. "What if it's not a date, What about just a walk?" He questioned. NO. " No. I'm sorry I need to go, see ya around. " I said running up towards my dormitory.

After an hour or so, I walked back down stairs. Draco still hadn't come back. It was almost curfew. As on cue, draco stormed through the common room doors, A huge red dot surrounding his eyes. He glanced at me and his eyes softened. He stormed up to his room. I should help. I thought, I followed him up to the stairs. "Draco, What in the fucking hell happened?" I asked taking the cold wet cloth away from him, urging him to sit down. He complied. "Me, And Some dick got into a fight. " He answered. "About what. " I asked, dabbing a small bloody cut on his face. He winced when the cloth touched him. Sorry I mumbled. "About you. " Draco said. I halted. "Ok. Please elaborate. " I said, resuming my work. "He said something about me being the reason he couldn't date you. I dont know something like that. " He said furrowing his brow. I sighed and shook my head, "God. Damn You terrace. " I said. Draco looked up, ""You know him?" He asked. I nodded then grabbed a ban-daid to put on his cut. "Not realy, Around an hour or two ago, he asked me out. But he asked me to go to Hogsmead this Monday. I told him I was going on a walk, And he kept pestering." I said "I dont know how he knew it was you, I didn't tell him your name. " I said, "What did blasie want?" I asked, "Just to talk about stuff, set some ground rules. " He said looking up into my eyes. "Ground rules? What is he the grand Jurry?" I asked still holding the ice on his cheek. "I know right. " He said. He lifted his hands up to grab the ice. I didn't move my hand. It was like magic. His hand was ontop of mine. I slowly pulled my hand away, "I should get going, Um- Keep the ice on, good night. " I said, He smiled at me. "Goodnight princess, Dont forget about tomorrow!" He said.
