There I sat up in the astronomy tower, the cupcake that Harry gave me was held in my hands. Classes ended hours ago, and I was supposed to be in my dorm right now. Which I wasn't.

A soft sigh escaped my lips, as I opened the box that contained the cupcake. It looked fairly normal. An average cupcake that Harry gave me as an apology gift. It seemed weird, but my cravings didn't think that. I hadn't ate much dinner in the Great Hall, nevertheless I wasn't hungry which I dearly regretted.

One bite won't hurt.

I carefully lifted the cupcake with my fingers, peeling off the wrapper of the cupcake. I wouldn't lie, it looked delicious, and I was craving for sweets.

My mouth slowly opening to take a bite, one big bite that my teeth would feel the soft cream on top of the cupcake.

Until it was taken away from me.

Crumbs fell on my hand as my head turned to see who took the cupcake from me.

Of course, it was Draco Malfoy.

"Eating a cupcake in midnight?" His voice rasped, examining the cupcake with his gray eyes. My lips turned into a frown, standing up to face him.

"Draco? I- What are you doing here?"

"I could ask you the same question."

I glared at him, my eyes averting to my cupcake.

"Give it here, Malfoy." I angrily said, putting out my hand to hold the cupcake. Seriously, couldn't I have a break from this dude?

He gave me a look, than looked back at the cupcake. Mischief formed in his eyes, as he drew the cupcake closer to him. The only thing I could think of is the scenario I didn't want to happen.

He abruptly took a large bite out of the cupcake, with crumbs falling onto the ground. I gasped loudly, staring wide-eyed at him, scoffing angrily. How dare he ate the cupcake I was planning to eat. I was pretty hungry as well, and I thought Harry's cupcake would fill my stomach up.

An angry feeling engulfed inside of me. That selfish ferret.

"What the merlins, Malfoy!" I said, dramatically raising my hands.

"I was going to eat that!"

"—Hm... this taste weird." He muttered, ignoring my complaints as he looked at the cupcake. I was beyond furious, and snatched the cupcake from his hands.
