The Forgotten Potter- Draco Malfoy

Chapter 5 (Year 1)

"I'm glad you do," Snape said,

"See Draco! This is a wonderful present!" I yelled from across the room, pointing at my necklace. He rolled his eyes.

"Get over it!" He yelled,

"I will when you get me a better present!"

We went back to Hogwarts shortly after new year's. I walked back from the library. After curfew, I had been studying for so long; I had fallen asleep on my books. Draco came running down the hallway and stopped when he saw me.

"River! Thank goodness it's you!" He yelled, relief feeling his face.

"What's wrong, Draco?" I asked, as he started gasping for air.

"Need, McGonagall!" He said. I nodded, and he grabbed my hand, making us run towards the Gryffindor tower.

We reached her door after five minutes of running, and Draco knocked on her door.

"Yes, Mr. Malfoy, and Ms. Potter? What are you doing out past curfew?" She asked, stepping out of her office, looking annoyed.

"Potter, Weasley, and Granger! Are all at Hagrid's hut right now. You have to come!" He said. I looked at him, shocked, my blood boiling.

This is what he brought me for! This is the emergency! Malfoy, I'm gonna kill you!

She signed and stepped out of her office, and we silently followed her out to Hagrid's hut, as I thought of ways to push Draco into the black lake.

"As every schoolchild knows, dragon breeding is against our laws, has been ever since the Warlock's Convention of 1709. And for good reason. It's hard to keep the Muggles from noticing us if we've got a thirty-foot Ukrainian Iron belly running around the back garden. " She told, Potter, Granger, and Weasley as they all stared up at her nervously.

"Norwegian Ridgeback." Weasley corrected Professor McGonagall, who did not find that helpful.

"I just meant ... in this case... sorry," He said, looking down at the ground, turning red.

"Personally, I don't care if Hagrid has a Chinese Fireball sitting in his kitchen, Mr. Weasley. He answers to Dumbledore. You ,on the other hand, answer to me. Nothing! Repeat, nothing, gives a student the right to walk about the school at night. Therefore, as a punishment for your actions, fifty points will be taken. "

"Fifty!" Potter yelled.

"Each. And to ensure it doesn't happen again, all five of you will receive a detention."

"Excuse me, Professor, Perhaps, I heard you wrong, but I thought you said the five of us?"

Malfoy said, stepping towards Professor McGonagall.

"Indeed. Mr. Malfoy and Ms. Potter, however noble. Your intentions, you both were out of bed after hours. You both will join your classmates in detention. "

"But, Professor, I was in the library. I just fell asleep, studying, and Draco dragged me out here-"

"You still were out past curfew," She said. I signed and nodded, as she started walking back to the castle, with us following her.

"Draco Malfoy!" I yelled once we entered the Slytherin common room.

"What! Don't blame me! Blame Professor McGonagall!" He yelled. I rolled my eyes.

"No! I blame you! Why would you tell her? Of course, she would give us detention! We were out past curfew too!" I said,

"I can't believe you! I just-, I can't even!" I yelled, glaring at him.

"It's not my fault!" Draco shouted.

"Yes, it is! Don't you understand! You're so dumb!"

"I'm dumb! They were breeding a dragon!"

"I don't care if they were making a bomb! I don't want to be involved!" I yelled.

"Well, I never meant to involve you!" Draco yelled.

"Then you should have ignored me in the hallway! Ignore me!" I said, throwing my hands up in frustration.

"Maybe I should have!" Draco shouted.

"You should have, so I don't need to hear your constant nagging about Potter!" I said, shoving my finger into his chest.

"I don't nag about Potter!" He said, grabbing my arms.

"Really! It's always, "Potter made the quidditch team! Potter is a filthy half-blood! Potter this," I said, mocking him, as I tried to pull my hands out of his grip.

"How dare you! I sound nothing like that!"

"Yes, you do! That's all you ever talk about!" I spat.

"You know what? We can start ignoring each other now!" He said, letting my hands go.

"Fine!"

"Fine!" Draco yelled, as I stormed off into my dorm room, and slammed the door.
