Three Loves for Draco

By: Lalaa...and Mandy

Chapter One: Intro

Draco Malfoy huffed to himself as he rounded a corner in the well-darkened halls of Hogwarts. He peeked his eyes around the corner to see if she was still there... Yes, she. She followed him everywhere! In the halls during breaks, into the Slytherin Dorms, and even into the guys bathroom if she was feeling spontaneous enough. He didn't see her, maybe he had gotten rid of her at that precise moment. Hopefully.

Draco made his way to the library running, hopefully fast enough so that that dreadful girl would not catch him. She could be anywhere! All he knew was that he had to get his homework done. He had a five-parchment paper due for Professor Snape... Tomorrow. "Damn truth serum... I already know what it is, AND how to make it...Damn Snape needs to bugger off." Draco narrowed his eyes as he slowed his pace. He reached the large carved doors of the library. He took a large breath in, sighed, and made his way into the library.

Draco went to sit down at a corner table. He did not feel like being disturbed, especially by that she-devil. He shrugged and took out the book about truth serums. His eyes started scanning the pages, writing down notes occasionally. His face was fixed in concentration. He only had a bit before he had to go to bed. His thoughts wandered towards Quidditch. He stuck his quill in between his soft lips and pondered about tomorrow.

Draco's thoughts were bombarded with a loud thumping. Someone was coming towards him. He decided to ignore them, and restart his quest to finish his prat-of-an-assignment. He heard someone say his first name in a sickeningly sweet way. He chose to ignore it at first, but figured he should try to shoo her away. Draco looked up at her with a look of annoyance and loathing. He heard her ask about truth serums, and decided not to answer. He just cocked one of his delicately manicured eyebrows at her. Draco flicked his gaze towards the bookshelves, as he thought he saw something. The girl nearly yelled at him taking back his attention, "WELL?" was what she said. Draco shrugged and averted his attention back to his homework. He chuckled to himself as Hermione stormed off.

Ginny Weasley trudged her way down the stairs towards the Gryffindor Common Room. She wiped her eyes and pushed her fingers through her brightly colored hair. It was near nightfall, and she had just awakened from a nap. Her head was throbbing with pain. Already in a bad mood, Ginny realized that she had a paper due... Flitwick's class. She had to write a two- parchment essay on the spell 'Wingarduim Leviosa'. She rolled her eyes, as she grabbed some random quill that was sitting on the table in the Common Room. She placed the quick rapidly into her pocket and made her way towards the library.

Ginny went to look for her book in the small aisles. She then noticed someone was in her way. She narrowed her eyes at the beastly sight. Brown bushy hair blocking the aisle. "Not that wanker again," she thought, hoping she hadn't said it. She pushed past her making sure that she saw the glare pasted on her face. The moment seemed to stand still as they both let a tension pass between them. As time seemed to restart, Ginny went to look for her book, as the frazzled bookworm seemed to go through a malevolent plan in her small capacity of a head. Ginny grinned at the girl's foolishness.

She slowly crept past the bookshelves as the girl failed in pulling Draco into "helping" her with her homework. She peered around a corner, flaming red hair falling down her face. She leaped back behind the bookshelf quickly before Draco would see.

Ginny watched, as the annoyed girl obviously did not get the reply she wanted. She giggled to herself as she watched her storm off with her robes in a bunch. Ginny, still chuckling, grabbed the book she needed off of the shelf and headed for her dorm. It was five minutes until lights out. She took one last look at Draco, his head bent over, picking up his things off of the table. She smiled as she glanced at him making his way out of the library.

Hermione knew Draco was going to the library. She wasn't stupid. She'd looked everywhere else, but if he was trying to get away from her, why go there? She casually shrugged as she pushed her oddly colored brown hair out of her eyes. "I can just walk in casually," She thought to herself. She walked in and pretended she was looking for some sort of book, but his smooth looks were hard to miss. Those deep, pools of silver scanning page after page. His thick locks of blonde hair shone in the light, as she gazed at his porcelain face that no one else could match.

"I must have him, only me..." Hermione's thoughts were cut off as she felt a shove on her left side. Ginny pushed Hermione away, so she could get to a book that Hermione was supposedly blocking. A flash of hatred passed between them. "Scum." Hermione thought. "Dirt." A thought seemed to swirl in Ginny's demented mind at that very moment, Hermione could see.

Hermione stormed over to a shelf near Draco as an idea spawned inside her mind, "Draco," she said sweetly. Even though Draco was not accustomed to her addressing her by his first name, he almost didn't answer. Draco looked up with a look of loathing. "Could you help me with my homework? It's on truth serums, the book I'm looking for seems to be taken..." Hermione knew the library, and she knew the book he held. She gave him the best helpless look she could manage, but would he fall for it. Hermione felt a piercing glare from behind the bookshelves, but she ignored it Ginny ducked into the shelves again, the movement catching Draco's attention, but Hermione immediately put it back on herself, "Well?" she said loudly, turning a few heads. Hermione was not one to ask for help, but in this case, there was an exception. She waited for a reply, and all he did was shrug. Hermione, extremely pissed off, big-footed her way towards her dorm.

A/N: Huzzah! I finished the intro! Yeah, I know, it can be confusing, but I'm also still trying to figure out how the rest of the story will go... Trust me! Anyway. This story is a result of boredom from my friend and I. If you want to go look her up, check out her pen name: Mandy Smirkke. Anyway. Reviews will keep us going! Without them we are dead! And so is the story! ((And by the way. MY story, Crisis at Hogwarts... Sucks. Don't bother reading it...)) R/R!!! -- Lalaa
