You're alone in your dorm. You've been looking for your secret box. It contains your most precious treasures. When you finally find it, you sit down next to the window and open it. There are a bunch of pictures among other stuff inside. You have pictures of Harry and you, but curiously, most of them are pictures of Draco and you. Seeing Draco in the pictures puts a smile on your face. In the bottom of de box, there is another small box. You open it and there is a golden snitch inside. You take it carefully and smile. Draco gave it to you on Second Year, when he won his first Quidditch match.
You take all the pictures of Harry and throw them to the trash can. You put the trash can on the table and take your wand.
—Lacarnum Inflamarae —you cast and burn your memories about Harry and you with tears in your eyes until they become ashes.
You take your guitar and go to the Great Hall. No one's there, so you start singing:
«It took a long long time to get here
It took a brave, brave girl to try
It took one too many excuses
One too many lies
Don't be surprised
Don't be surprised
I don't need your opinion
I'm not waiting for your okay
I'll never be perfect
But at least now I'm brave
Now my heart is open
And I can finally breathe
Don't be mad
It's just the brand new kind of free
That ain't bad
I found a brand new kind of me
Don't be mad
It's just a brand new time for me»
Suddenly, you hear someone applauding behind you. You turn around to see who's there. It's Pansy Parkinson. She is clapping her hands sarcastically.
—Well, well, look at what we have here.
—What do you want, Pansy?
—Just a friendly reminder that your little friend chose me over you to be his Yule Ball date last year. But you were smarter and caught Harry Potter, huh? I don't understand why Draco can be friends with a half-blood like you! Oops, my bad, you two are not friends anymore, are you? It must be sad to sing to the walls.
—Why are you so mean? —You ask with tears in your eyes.
—Mean? I'm gonna show you what it's like to be mean! —She takes out her wand and points at you.
Draco is walking around in there and hears an argument that comes from the Great Hall. When he gets there to see what's going on, it's too late.
—REDUCTO! —Pansy yells.
—NO! —Draco shouts and takes out his wand—. EXPELLIARMUS! —He shouts again, pointing at Pansy and disarms her.
Everything happens in slow motion to you. Your beloved guitar blows up into pieces. You fall down to your knees and break down into tears. Professor Snape shows up and looks at the scene.
—Mr. Malfoy, Ms. Parkinson, to detention, now.
—But... Professor, Draco didn't...
—Nice try, Ms. (Y/L/N), but Mr. Malfoy comes with me.
Draco doesn't say a word and goes with Professor Snape. There is no way to repair your guitar, it's completely destroyed and you don't have the money to buy a new one.
The next day, you return to your dorm after lunch and find a Chocolate Frog on your pillow. It comes with a note: "Find me", that's all it says. You don't understand anything. You open the box and the frog gets away.
—Hey! Wait! Where are you going? —You start chasing the frog for all over the castle.
The frog leads you to the gardens and stops under a tree. This beautiful guitar is waiting for you there:
Your jaw literally drops. There is a green apple on the ground next to the guitar. You smile and pick up the apple.
—Draco —you sigh. You take your new guitar and start singing:
«Oh I could never replace
All the tenderest moments
They will always live right here inside me
My love will forever hold a place for you
That's why I'm so confused...»
Your voice breaks. Tears start rolling down your cheeks. You miss Draco so much that it hurts. You eat the apple trying to calm yourself down. You see a table and sit down there. Suddenly, you see Fang coming towards you.
—Hi Fang, come over here little furry —you hug him and start petting him—. Draco won't come today. He hasn't showed up over here since a year ago —you sigh—. I miss him so much, you know? —Fang licks your cheek and runs away barking—. Ok, see you later —you wave your hand. You take your guitar and start singing again:
«True love walked out the door
Couldn't take it no more
True love, it broke my heart
You made my whole life sore
He said he'd be my baby
Then why did he betray me?
Temptation got to his head
Then I left him, yeah
And this is what I said...»
Suddenly, you hear a sexy but sweet male voice that comes from the distance: "Where are we going, little furry? My father will hear about this". You can't believe what you see. Fang is bringing Draco to you by pulling his school cloak. Draco is standing in front of you now. You smile at him. He smiles back at you. Oh no, oh no, not that beautiful smile, please. Your heart starts beating so fast right now. You haven't had this feeling in ages. It feels so good. Draco is staring at you. Gosh! You had almost forgotten how beautiful his grey eyes are! He looks taller and stronger than the last time you both talked to each other.
