《Emerald》10

The moment Draco's lips met mine, it was like time had stopped.
For the first time in my life, I had felt something in my chest that I had never felt before.
Draco kissed me slowly, and softly.
He kept a tight hold on my neck, to show he was in control of the rhythm.
He was in control of where I went, and how fast we went.
Draco moved his hands to my waist, to pull my hips closer to his body.
He quickly moved both of his hands back behind my head.
Small moans escaped from his lips as he took breaths.
Kissing Draco felt so good.
My body craved Draco.
"Malfoy..." Crabbe, said through the door as he jiggled the door nob.
Draco's lips slowly broke away from mine, as he opened his eyes and looked at me for a moment.
Draco smiled, and brushed the loose hair away from my forehead.
He quickly turned his head toward the door, and his smile disappeared.
"What?!" Draco spat angrily, as he breathed heavily.
"Can you open this jar for us?" Crabbe begged through the door.
Draco angrily huffed, running his hand through his blonde, fluffy hair.
"I should probably go, it's getting late...." I told him as I stood up.
"I'll walk you out then." Draco whispered, and stood up quickly. He picked the cloak up, and draped it over me.
Draco slowly unlocked the door, and walked out of his room. I followed his footsteps closely, as he lead me to the Slytherin common room.
There stood Crabbe and Goyle waiting patiently, holding a jar of pickles.
"This is what you two idiots woke me up for?" Draco asked them, as he quickly popped the lid of the jar off, "You couldn't have bothered anyone else with this?"

Draco turned around,and headed for the main entrance.
"Where are you going?" Goyle asked, him as he stuffed his face with pickles.
"Getting some fresh air. Very out of place to ask me what I'm doing." Draco spat at them, as he opened the door.
I followed him out, and down the stairs.
"I'll see you around, I guess." I whispered, as I walked away.
I can't believe I kissed Draco.
I can't belive Draco kissed me.
Never in a million years did I think that Draco Malfoy would be sneaking me into his room.... to kiss me.
I quickly returned to the Gryffindor commodore, and knocked on Harry's door.
He cracked the door open.
Harry looked like he was still half asleep.
"Thank you." I said handing him the cloak. I walked to my dorm, and slowly snuck inside.
Hermione was fast asleep.
My clock read after midnight.
I slipped under the covers.
I smiled, and sighed with happiness.
...
Draco, and I stayed behind closed doors.
As we passed each other in the hallways, the most we could do was look at each other.
Draco would always curl the corners of his lips, and give me his little guilty smile.
It was cute.
During class he pass me notes, telling where we were meeting for the day.
Draco would occasionally trip me as I walked passed him.
We still had to keep up the 'sworn enemy' roles of our two friend groups.
Draco seemed to target me more than the rest of them now.
...
"Today, we will be learning the spell riddikulus. It's used against boggarts, you think of something ridiculous, as you're casting the spell. Now, your biggest fear will come out of this closet. For today's lesson, you will practice riddikulus to help you concur your fears." Professor spoke as he went and unlocked the closet in the center of the room.

"Who would like to go first?" Professors eyes scanned the room.
He grabbed me by the sleeve, and pulled me to the center of the class room.
"Our first lovely volunteer." Professor smiled.
I could hear Draco, and his friends laughing already.
I turned and gave them a dirty look.
The doors flew open, and out came a giant hornet.
The evil thing was larger than a basketball, as it swung its stinger through the air.
"Oh, fuck!" I choked out.
My whole body shook, as it inched closer.
"Cast." The teacher told me.
"Riddikulus." I pointed my wand at the creature, and closed my eyes.
I opened them to see the hornet was now dressed in women's underwear.
The hornet now had butterfly wings too.
The whole class erupted with laughter, and my face turned beat red.
I quickly turned around, and walked back and stood behind my friends.
"Very good," professor chuckled, "Mr Potter, your turn."
Harry nodded, and stepped forward.
The doors of the closet wiggled and the doors flew open.
A dementor flew out of the closet.
Harry froze in his tracks.
The color drained from his face, and his eyes rolled back into his head.
Harry fainted to the ground.
...
"You sure you're ok?" I asked, Harry as we walked through one of the court yards.
Draco jumped down from the tree. He was surrounded by his friends.
"Scared of a little bee?" Draco stepped forward.
His friends buzzed, taunting me.
"Can't believe that Potter fainted."
"Why didn't you go up there and volunteer, Malfoy?" I asked.
Draco turned to his friends, and laughed.
"He was too scared that either of us would have appeared in front of him." Harry spat at Draco.
Harry turned around, and began walking away.
Draco was visibly angry.
His eyebrows and nose scrunched, as he bared his white teeth.
Draco pulled out his wand, before he could cast, professor Moody hobbled over.
"Who ever taught you to curse when someone had their back turned?!" Moody casted a spell on Draco, turning him into a white ferret.
He lifted the ferret up, spinning him into the air.
Harry, and I laughed as we walked away.
