i woke up with an ache. no wonder. my legs were in pieces. luckily for me it was a saturday . my eyes fluttered open to see draco still holding on tight to me. i couldn't help but smile. my eyes scanned the room. both boys were also still asleep and chloe didn't want to join us last night apparently. i don't blame her. i looked back to draco who was now awake. i gave him a quick smile before burying my head into his shoulder a bit more. he let out a small chuckle. before tilting my chin up to look at him.
"your body alright from you know, last night?" he whispered. i let out a small giggle and nodded. i didn't need him knowing my legs were sore.
"liar" he whispered. i laughed and turned my face back down. not answering his question again. we lay there whispering sweet nothings to each other before adrian woke up.
"mmmmoring guys" he stretched as he sat up.
"morning" we both said in unison. blaise then woke up soon after. i swear the two boys see us as their parents or something as they both took their duvets over and sat on the edge of the bed. i couldn't help but laugh at this sight. i left draco and pulled my camera out and snapped a pic. these boys. we sat there talking for what might have been an hour until a little knock at the door.
"come in" blaise yelled. the door slowly opened to reveal hermione. the boys arent a big fan of the golden trio and i doubt they ever will be. but they like hermione the best out of the three.
"i just wanted to give you this" she walked in and handed me a letter.
"thanks" i began to open it. hermione stood staring at us all.
"imma go now, but tell me what it says" she paused "if you can" and with that she shut the door. what did that mean? hadn't she read it already?
'dear Rebecca,
i know i couldn't wrote to the both of you girls but i recon hermione might not tell me. do you know where your parents are and if they are returning back to the house. they haven't sent me a letter or anything but trust me they are getting an awful lot themselves. i'm just a bit worried that's all, if you could just tell me they were okay, if you know of course.
but other than that, collen is really loving being at home and i decided to get him a bigger cage and your plant is doing great too.
can't wait to see you at christmas!!
love,
Susan x'
i folded up the letter and just sat. i didn't know what to say or do. my parents weren't at home and i didn't even know where they could be. so many mixed emotions yet i don't know which one i felt more.
"is everything alright?" blaise asked breaking the silence. i nodded slowly. i was going to get out of bed when it hit me. i had a tiny crop top on, which people would consider a bra and my underwear. fuck.
"draco, you wanna pass me your top" i smiled as i turned to face him. he was also just in his underwear but it was a lot more normal for him in a sense. he looked at me then sniggered.
"yeh, here" he passed me his top he was wearing yesterday and i threw it over my head.
"sleep well last night?" adrian asked us all.
"yeh although i'm still rather tired" i smiled as i began to stand. fuck. my legs went weak and i sat back down. draco let out an obnoxious laugh. the boys heads turned faster than ever.
"you alright?" blaise smiled weakly.
"yeh, draco you wanna go get me a pair of short?" i smiled. he rolled his eyes and quickly got my shorts for me. the shortest pair of shorts i've ever seen.
"here you go luv, do you want me to carry you as well?" he said sarcastically
"yeh i would actually" i stood up slowly. he flicked my legs up and i was now in his arms, he carried me around the room
"where you wanting dropped off?" he smiled
"at the desk" the two boys continued to talk about whatever the topic was before turning around to see draco placing me down on the desk. draco tucked a bit of hair behind my ear gently and gave me a quick kiss.
"who knew granger and malfoy would end up this cute?" adrian smiled as they watched us
"i always thought it would be harper and draco" blaise paused "but you know, she's lesbian so i don't think that would work"
"i thought it would be those two and the becca with you" adrian added. i sat down at the desk and got some parchment paper out, ignoring the whole conversation.
"so blaise, how was your walk last night?" i winked turning back to the desk. draco sat down beside me and watched me write a letter back to susan
"good, great actually" blaise smiled as he stood from my bed and walked over
"who'd you walk with?" draco asked
"oh just a girl" he blushed. my head has never turned so fast, i might've even got whiplash.
"who?" i smiled, by his face he knew i was on to him. i looked down to his crystal bracelet then back up to him. he blushed even more
"well, don't judge you guys" he paused
"we are gonna judge you anyways mate" draco smiled holding onto me.
"luna lovegood"
"i knew it" i squealed. dracos face dropped
"why didn't you tell me?" he sighed turning his attention to me
"i didn't want to start rumours if they weren't together" i reassured.
"bobbies younger sister?" adrian laughed
"i love luna, she's lovely" i smiled
"she is isn't she" blaise blushed "i'm
actually meeting her again today so that's exciting" i've not seen blaise this excited in a long time, it brings a sense of peace to me. i love blaise i really do and i just love that he's happy. brings more joy to the group.
"well, you'll have to invite her to the group some time, maybe not always as she's bobbies younger sister but i'm sure it'll be fun" i added turning back to my letter
"really? well we aren't official yet guys or i would've told you sooner" he sighed throwing himself back onto my bed.
"it's alright mate" adrian smiled as he sat back down beside him. they chatted amongst themselves while i finished off my letter, i let draco read over them both before starting one to my parents.
'dear susan,
i'm forever glad to hear collen and my plant are getting on good and not dying off like i thought my plant would. not collen of course. but i'm sad to inform you i know nothing, i'll talk to hermione at sometime this week and ask her what's going on but i don't want her to stress about it. i'm assuming they are away on a business trip but we can't be sure. i'm positive everything will be okay.
i've writing to them just now to see if they are alright, don't overthink it though.
tell me if anything changes
love,
Rebecca x'
"that's good" draco smiled folding my letter up and sending it off by owl. i finished my parents one just asking if their alright but i recon it's just an over exaggeration or a miss understanding. i sent the other letter off and turned to face the other boys.
