《Our Toxic Love》11.
Advertisement
I hadn't seen Draco properly for 3 days now. Just in passing and even then he never looked at me and with every time I saw him a reminder of his words cut through me like a knife. As much as I tried to tell myself what I was doing with Harry was good something inside me hurt knowing that when I'm sat on that date and I'm laughing at a joke or speaking about our lives and our past that Draco won't be the one that's opposite me. He'll be somewhere probably with his minions not caring about me or my feelings just living his life and here was me totally engorged by a boy that didn't care I excisted.
I finished putting the last curl in my hair and touched up my red lipstick one more time and that was it. I couldn't put this off anymore. I was ready for my date with Harry Potter not Draco Malfoy. As quickly as I could I tried to make my way through the common room without seeing anybody but sadly for me I was unsuccessful.
"Phhwooaar Ivy, Ivy, Ivy. Now where do you think your going looking that fine." Blaise gracefully got up on his feet. As I was about to ignore his comment and keep moving I noticed a certain blonde sat with his back to me. If I was to have a moment of redemption it would be now.
"I'm going on a date...with Harry." My words felt strong and confident and for once I didn't crumble to a pathetic mess.
"Harry Potter?! I thought you were just friends? Never thought I'd want to be Potter so bad" he said as he licked his lips.
I furrowed my brow in disgust "Well...things change." I noticed Draco's head beginning to turn around and then abruptly he stopped.

I walked out with my head held high. To Hogsmeade I go.
As I reached Hogsmeade I could already see Harry standing outside The Three Broomsticks. I gave him a quick wave and a smile. Well this is it.

"..and then Hermione wacked him round the head and that was that" Harry shrugged his shoulders and laughed. I laughed along with him even though I didn't fully understand the story as my mind had been watching the door since we sat down.
"So...are you enjoying yourself?" He looked at me with big bambi eyes and I knew I had to be honest.
"Well..." suddenly the door flung open and in he walked. I could see his eyes scanning and I heard Crabbe in the background just about.
"Draco for god sake can you just pick somewhere, we've been in everywhere"
"Shut up Crabbe" the aggression in Draco's voice immediately stopped Crabbe in his tracks. Then just as he was about to leave his eyes clocked mine. I saw him take a deep breath and then just like I really needed it right now I watched him sit down only a couple tables away from me. His face didn't alter when it looked at me. No glare but no smile either just unreadable.
"Ivy? Are you ok? You were saying something?" Harry's hand reached forward across the table as he spoke. I stared at it for a second and then it hit me. Alright Draco Malfoy, want to play dirty. Well I can too.
I swiftly picked Harry's hand up so quickly I think it even shocked Harry. I gave my most sincere smile and tilted my head in that cute little way making me look all innocent and besotted.
"I was just going to say, I'm really enjoying myself." I then ever so slightly began running my thumbs along his palms. I made sure that our hands were slightly raised off the table so Draco could see and like a moth to a flame I could feel his eyes on me.

Maybe you care a little more than you thought Malfoy.
The date continued for another hour, full of giggles, laughter, hair flicking and lip biting. At one point I was focused so much on putting on a show for Draco that I didn't realise that Harry was trying to ask me a question.
"Look Ivy, I just want to say...I've really enjoyed myself...you're a pretty extraordinary girl and I hope maybe we can do this again soon?" Harry's sat waiting on my response.
I knew what I had done was wrong, in fact very wrong but the satisfaction I had taken watching Draco writhe in his seat made me forget all of that. Just knowing that I had the power that I was making Draco Malfoy so jealous he could barely contain it in his body. I know that made me a bad person but for once in my life...I didn't really care.
I grabbed my bag and jacket and slowly walked towards the door with Harry guiding me but just before I was about to leave I turned my face to Draco who's eyes were already on me. Oh yeah this was definitely working.

It had been an hour since my date and I decided that it was finally time after my victory to get some work done. I grabbed a couple of text books and set off on my way.
I passed a couple students on my way but no one I really knew. I was about to turn the corner to the library before something grabbed my arm and in so much shock I dropped all by text books on the floor, before I could turn round properly I was already being pulled into the corridor next to me. It was him.
My anxiety suddenly felt like it could explode inside me and the confidence I was so sure of before had sudden dropped straight out of me. My mouth suddenly dry unable to fathom any words. The corridor was fairly dark but I could still see all his features...somewhat clearler than I had ever seen them before. There he was stood right in front of me, I could smell him, feel his warm breath on my skin and right there where I needed to the most I couldn't speak.
His eyes began to narrow "Ivy, what the fuck do you think you are doing" his voice was quiet but far from soft. His jaw clenched which only made me stare at his sharp features even more.
"I..I don't know what you're on about" I mumbled
He pushed forward hard so my body was pressed between the wall and him, he shot his hands up so they were either side of my head. His chest so close mine I could feel each breath on me. "Trying to make me jealous with Harry Potter? What have I told you Ivy? I don't care about you or Potter? I couldn't give a fuck what you get up to. So stop what you are trying to do" he spat his words.
My breath had began to calm slightly and I could feel the confidence I knew I had inside building its way back up. I moved slightly under him relaxing myself, I slowly lent my head against the wall so his eyes were looking down at me.
"So why are you here then Draco?"
And before I could even get chance to breathe, he was on me and I was drowning in him.

The Cyclical Nature of Time
A girl’s life ends unexpectedly early, or so it would seem. Instead of eternal nothingness, she wakes up in an empty valley with no clue how she got there. Taking her predicament in stride, she sets out to do something about it. Unfortunately for her, the first couple of people she meets aren’t much help. They claim they haven’t heard of electricity and dress as if they were on a break from their job at a Viking-themed amusement park. MC is a somewhat normal girl. She's pragmatic and not very angsty. The story is tagged with anti-hero, but to be clear, she is not a villain. She does good if she can, she just isn't morally motivated to do so. The story starts out smelling of fantasy but will eventually shift towards sci-fi. It contains some supernatural elements and has a strong lead, but it is not your usual power trip. Expect a story that takes its time, but not to the point where entire chapters are spent on mindless chit-chat. I’m not into that. This is my first serious attempt at writing and I've learnt a lot writing this. Unfortunately, that shows. Chapter 1-10 is slow and rather pointless. Things get better, but it is not until chapter 25 or so that I began understanding how to structure chapters and to make them support the larger story. I publish about 3000 words a week (every sunday) but I write about 10000 words a week. Sticking to that pace, which is easy, the last chapter will be out by July.
