IX
When term break ended and everyone returned I'd like to say I wasn't relieved and I didn't miss any of the idiots I call friends, but I did. The stories from Theo and Pansy were absolutely hysterical.
"My mum pulled me to one side," Pansy said, trying not to laugh. "And asked if we were being 'safe'.. and all I wanted to say was well yeah as safe as you can get, because it's certainly not my dick that Theo's sitting on."
A couch cushion came hurtling through the air hitting Parkinson right off the stool she had perched herself upon. Nott then followed up with a half empty water bottle just for an extra razzle dazzle. "I'm a fucking top anyway so shut your mouth with your stupid fringe and mad lesbo stories hidden beneath your bed. Like what even the fuck is scissoring anyway?"
Every single person in the common room stopped what they were doing and fell on a silent note. People walking just paused, the chatter disappeared and even I was biting the side of my hand to cower back the urge to keep shit stirring.
Then a fucking fourth year piped up from across the room. "Well it's like-"
"Oh my god shut up you are literally a child! Stop eavesdropping!" Theo bellowed before turning back wide eyed and open mouthed.
Pansy had just about picked herself up off the floor and the room returned to it's busy and bustling state. Dinner was due to start in around ten minutes.
And I know I'm going to see y/n there, just like I do every day. But she meant what she said and kept up her side of the bargain. Fuck and forget about it, just simply ignore that the other exists.
It would of been fine, just fine, really fucking easy if I could stop thinking about it. There's no denying that we had chemistry that night I mean, I don't just fuck anyone contrary to popular belief. A menial attraction isn't enough to have me bed someone; but that's my personal choice.
Nor was my body count as high as some assume. I mean I'm seventeen, and there's only so much 'shagging' one can do in the eight months since losing their virginity.
The clock hands hit five, and Parkinson had managed to sneak up behind Theo just as he was getting up to start walking. Her hands cupped over his ear as she leant in, and when she moved back her grin was wider than a Cheshire cat.
"Okay that is quite hot though," said Theo. Pansy just pointed two fingers to her eyes and then his before shoving him out through the common room door. "And don't fucking throw bottles at my head again!!"
It was Blaise who took it upon himself to walk beside me as we made our way up from the dungeons. "You alright mate? Did I miss anything whilst I was gone?" He asked me.
No, I nodded. "Absolutely fuck all, it was quieter than usual but I think everyone just wants to get from here as often as they can now after all that shit with Umbridge."
He hummed to himself in agreement, building up to the real question as our footsteps beat down the cobbled floors. "You know there's been some rumours, people have been talking a bit."
"Okay so? What's new? There's always someone bullshitting about someone."
"Well, it's about you actually and your family. About-- Azkaban."
"It was in the fucking news Blaise what do you expect?" I muttered, turning the corner to the Great Hall a little sharper than I meant to, bumping in to a first year and sending them two feet backwards. "I'm more than aware that my family's name is in everyone's mouths."
Zabini tugged at my sleeve just before the grand entrance doors. "Are you up to anything mate? For them? Or for your father? Because I'd get it, but well, that's some stuff that nobody should be getting involved in. And definitely not the likes of us. We're not stupid like those lot.." He nodded, to the other house tables before turning back to face me. "Self preservation over anything, every fucking time."
"Okay Blaise listen, I'm not doing anything weird so can you leave it? Honestly all you're doing is reminding me that my father is in prison."
He gave in with a sympathetic half smile, lightly patting my shoulder. That only irritated me further, the last thing I need is Zabini's pity, or anyone elses. But that was a pretty close one, Blaise has always been overtly observant anyway so I'm just relieved that I managed to talk him away this time.
The hall was back to it's vibrant and energetic self now that everyone had returned. We older Slytherin's of course took our places at the head of the tables that were closer to the doors so we didn't have the professor's beady eyes on us.
It smelt divine, but I just grabbed at the first bit of food my hands fell to. Could of been pasta, could of been chicken, could of been dry roasted Hippogriff.. I really wouldn't of known because my eyes were already searching the room whilst my hands were doing something entirely different.
There she was. Roaming back and forth, being a social butterfly, considering she claims to not keep 'friends.'
Y/n wore her hair differently today, half up and half down. Decorating the shape of her face like a picture. She laughed loudly, showing out the two little baby teeth I had noticed she still had at the bottom. Fuck knows when I had paid enough attention to notice but somehow, at some point I had.
"Oi, you're tipping stuff everywhere. What you even looking at?" Asked Goyle, dragging my attention back to the table where I had in fact tipped several things over trying to look busy. Goyle stretched himself over the table to take a peek before resting back. "Oh yeah? Do enlighten us all. What's that all about then?"
She somehow managed to glance over just at the same time as everyone else on the table did. I got shoved and knocked a bit. "Nothing I was just having a look; you all need to grow up to be honest."
"Oh yeah, I'm having a look too.. And that is a very, very nice thing to look at."
Did Crabbe just? He just fucking did, didn't he?
"She's not a thing Vince, she's a girl. Have a bit of fucking respect."
I huffed and turned back inward before poking at dinner silently, that was until a loud gasp came from Goyle as he must of, for the first time in his life, figured something out by himself.
"Oh my god you shagged her haven't you? Yeah you have, is that why you stayed back?"
"No I haven't and why the fuck am I the topic of conversation all of a sudden?!"
"Shit. Yep, he definitely has," Blaise sniggered in to his drink. "Nice!"
She was staring me down now as I quickly peeked back. She could see how uncomfortable I was to be around everyone again. I have no idea if she's waiting to see if I need help or something, or if she's intentionally making it worse but either way I'd already had enough.
"Fine yeah, I fucked her. Happy now?!" I shrugged before taking a bite of food so that my mouth would stop moving and making words.
Woops and childish cheers echoed around me and I knew she heard it. I'm just going to have to play it off now as the questions rolled in.
That respect for her I had just demanded of Crabbe wasted completely.
"What was it like?"
"Does she have nice tits?"
"Was it good?"
"Have you got a boner now just looking at her?"
There really is only one way out of this now. All attention directed on me from my housemates and from her as she daringly drank from her goblet.
"Yeah I fucked her, wasn't hard to convince. Tits are fine, nothing special. Boringly average, so there really is nothing to tell. I stuck it in her and dipped, wouldn't bother again."
That seemed to shut everyone up for a minute or two as they chewed slowly and quietly, sensing the energy around us change. And I might have even forgotten to look back at her if she didn't just announce herself directly behind me as everyone smirked on.
Slytherin's and drama are like flies to sugar. Especially my lot, they live for that shit.
"Ahem," y/n huffed behind me. "What?"
When I turned to meet her gaze beside me she was loosening her tie and undoing her two top buttons to expose the slightest bit of cleavage before bending down on to the table slowly, between me and Zabini. Being sure that everyone could see exactly how lovely her tits are, if they so wished.
Of course everyone looked. Not that y/n would of cared to notice as she picked up a potato chip from my plate and arrogantly placed it on her tongue to chew. "Are they not fucking feeding you up there or are you just feral or something?" I snarked.
It was at that exact point that she reached back on to her tongue, sliding the chip off and then flicking it back on to my plate silently with that look in her eye that makes me feel euphorically on edge.
"Oh no, I just thought you'd like to know what I taste like since you didn't get the chance last week; so go on go ahead and eat it and tell me what you taste.. Draco."
"You're actually fucking disgusting, so stop wasting my time."
"You mean the three minutes of time it took you to cum? Because.. I'd barely sat on your lap when you begged like a little boy and exploded from the slightest touch."
All hands were over mouths, eyeballs were falling out of heads. I could hear the stifled laughs but they sounded so far away, barely piercing the invisible wall of whatever the fuck we feel between us in each others space.
So I rolled my eyes up and down her body, curled a lip and really said what I said with my chest. "Yeah well, you came pretty fucking hard too. So don't know what you're complaining for? I don't even remember your name, so don't act special."
"Did I?"
I froze from grabbing out to my drink confused. Then, she continued. "Cum I mean? Did I actually cum or did I just fake it?"
"Yeah you did, stop acting so uppity. It's literally repulsive."
"Okay, prove it then."
"What? Prove that you came?"
I didn't think the tension could of gotten any thicker, but it did. And it wasn't just my small crowd of friends watching this unfold anymore.
"Yeah, prove it. Because I can prove that you did. --- It might take me about half an hour to get through the rest of the rubbish in the bin but I can provide proof to any of you here on this table that I made your mate cum like a good boy, if you want it?" She had addressed everyone else with a quick swiping point, and then landed back on to me.
Nobody said a fucking word. Not one person. Nobody wants to see a used condom.
They were speechless, as was I. The only time we had all gone silent that way was last year when Umbridge tried to throw Trelawney out in to the courtyard and send her away.
"And you should remember my name, you repeated it enough times. But just in case you ever forget.. it's y/n, nice to meet you everyone! Although after today I doubt you'll forget again."
Y/n lifted the ladle out of the pudding, licked the back of it stupidly slow before dumping it back in roughly; sending splatters over mainly me but some on the others too.
"Don't ever try to belittle me or make judgement on my body," she whispered as she run a knuckle up my face and straightened up, making me flinch. "Pick your trouble wisely, because I'm the wrong kind. Now eat that chip and get back to me on it. Oh and that little freckle on your inner thigh is cute."
And with that she strode away and began chatting to someone else next to the doors like nothing happened. My eyes scanned up and down the table just to be sure that everyone else had just witnessed the exact same thing that I did.
And by the looks on all of their faces they definitely had.
"Holy. Fucking. Shit. That was incredible.." Nott exclaimed dropping his fork loudly on to the oak that had been holding food the entire time, but never made it to his mouth.
I was fuming inside and I felt the heat of embarrassment crawl across my cheeks. She'll be fucking sorry and stupid to think she's just going to get away with showing me up like that.
"Oh my god I want her," Pansy muttered with a dreamy expression. "Malfoy if you don't want her please can I have her? Please?"
"What, shut up Parkinson no she's mi- Just shut the fuck up you're all a bunch of stupid cunts and besides she's not even in to girls. That's why she slept with me!"
The goose bumps shot through me once more as her voice reached me again from where she was standing. "Oh but I am Malfoy. I swing both ways. Remember that half number I told you about? Yeah well that was a guy, you know who couldn't make me cum. But the other was a female and she certainly did. Nighty night anyways."
Y/n smugly pulled herself from against the wall and strutted out of the doors of the hall to retire for the evening. Leaving every single person who had gotten in on that action basically fucking stupified.
"Yeah I want her.." Pansy said again, still entranced. So I chucked down my plate and shot upwards, pointing at each person singularly. "Any of you get involved and I swear on Merlin I'll actually fucking kill you. Stay out of it. It'll be sorted, nobody gets away with talking to me like a mug."
A slight snigger sounded out again from beside me. "Amused Blaise? We'll see just who's laughing in the end."
And I left, simply vanished, leaving everyone high and dry. I had no idea where I was going, but the rage inside of me just kept moving my legs.
If I go to y/n now I'm liable to choke her to death and if I go back to the dorms there will be fist fights the millisecond someone brings it up again.
My head had been well and truly frazzled by that point. It was like arguing with myself in girl form, she knows exactly what buttons to press naturally.
Good and bad.
