Chapter 4

-------------

Scralett opened her eyes. She hated mornings and especially those 'morning feelings', as
she called them. Those feelings that all you want, is to sleep. Just to sleep, but it was
still very dark. She turned around slowly, still half asleep. Draco was gone, so it had to
be morning. She tried to read the numbers the clock was showing. ' 03:16. Right... It's...
Wait-' , Scarlett thought. She now spread her eyes wide open to read the numbers again.
It was a quarter past three in the morning and Draco wasn't here. She suddenly wasn't
so tired anymore. Where was he?

She heard footsteps and someone opened the door. She closed her eyes and pretended
to sleep. It was Draco, she knew it. He was trying to be quiet and made no noise, until
he tripped over something, and fell on the ground. It must have been one of her shoes,
Scarlett thought. "Dammit..", she heard him whisper. Draco got into bed after a while and sighed.

"Where have you been?" He jumped. "ugh, sorry I woke you" , Draco answered. "You
didn't anwser my question. Where were you?" -"I just went to the bathroom, if that's
allowed?" -"With your clothes and shoes on?" Scarlett knew she got him now. He
sighed. "I... couldn't sleep, so, I... went for a walk." -"You went for a walk at 3AM?!
-"err yeah." -"Don't lie to me, Draco" Scarlett said rather worried. "I can't tell you, okay.
I'm sorry. Shall we go to sleep now? It's late." -"Fine, but tommorow, you're gonna tell
me everything. And by everything, I mean everything. Alright?" -"k" -"Goodnight then, Draco?" -"Yeah, goodnight, Scarley."

Scarley...

Draco had been awake for the rest of the night. Scarlett could tell by him tossing and
turning all night. And by that, he did not only keep himself awake, but Scarlett too. She
was a bit worried about him. What was it that he could not tell her? What was it that
kept him awake? Was he afraid of something? Or someone?
