Love?

@ Raven Skye;
Draco sighed out hearing McGonagall voice, he'd never been happy to hear her in all his life. "Thank god." He muttered out, now all they had to do is sit through the sorting.

---

Skylar nodded looking at her friend, before throwing a quick glance in the Slytherin's tables direction. Nibbling on her lip she looked back down, after her eyes locked on Blaise's. Her breathing increasing as she felt soft flutters in her stomach.

Bella smiled softly. She then looked at Draco and raised a hand to her mouth telling him to shush. She sighed seeing Pansy give her a murderous glare. She frowned and then looked down and looked up at McGonagall. She felt Pansy's eyes still on her. She thn felt like people were looking at her an soon she felt claustrophobic. She tried to keep her breathing even. She closed her hands into fists feeling herself shake.

Blaise saw their eyes meet and smiled at her. He saw her look down and grinned to himself happily. He looked back up at McGonagall. He ran a hand through his hair. He heard Pansy sneer about something looking back at her, he followed her smirking gaze to Bella. He whistled lowly so only few people would hear trying to get Skylar's attention. He kicked Draco nodding his head at Pansy.

@ Raven Skye;
Draco lifted his head, only to glare at Blaise. "What the bloody hell is your problem?" He questioned him in a harsh whisper. His hand jutting down and rubbing and his shin, it probably had a bruise or two.

---

Skylar heard a soft whistle, her head cocking to the side as she peered over at the Slytherin table. Her curiosty had her wondering if it was Blaise, she couldn't imainge it being any one else.

Blaise rolled his eyes and said, "Pansy. She keeps bothering Bella. She's shaking." He said. He frowned. He looked back to see Skylar. He nodded his head towards Bella and made a question mark in the air. He mouthed, Is she okay? Pansy is messing with her He looked back at Draco raising an eyebrow and said, "Plus I didn't know any other way to get your attention where you wouldn't be loud." He said.

Bella hugged herself, not feeling so good. She laid her head down on the table. She was shaking now. She felt it all start to close in. She could hear Pansy sneering from her seat. She tried to make her breathing even, but it was getting hard. She couldn't speak to get Skylar's attention. She stayed how she was her chest rising an falling in a bit of a shallow manner.

@ Raven Skye;
Draco was already fuming before Blaise had said anything. His eyes swiftly darted to Pansy, she sat a few people back. He noticed the stratified smirk on her lips, a soft growl left his lips, catching her attention. He noticed the look of horror on her face, she knew she'd messed up. Draco pulled his wand from his robes placing it on the table, as a warning.

---

Skylar furrowed her brow at Blaise, before turning to look at Bella. "Hey." She whispered scooting closer to her, her hands placed gently on her arms. "In through the nose out through the mouth." She instructed in a soft whisper, her voice soothing. Her hands rubbing up and down her arms, "it's okay, everything is fine." She whispered out, she didn't want to draw any more attention.

Blaise nodded leaning back in his seat. He crossed his arms behind his head and glanced back at Skylar. He watched Draco take his wand out. Within a split second food appeared on the tables filling it up. He blinked seeing as it appeared there. He smiled and kept checking on Skylar.

Bella nodded and breathed as she instructed. She felt her hands on her arms and soon began to calm down. She mumbled, "Pansy...everyone over there..looking at me." She ran a Han through her hair as she breathed and set we head down soon relaxing. She nodded and mumbled, "Im okay."

@ Raven Skye;
Draco watched Pansy for a few moments, before he turned to his plate. He would deal with her later, he was a bit to hungry to worry about it now. He looked at Blaise, "why are you so concerned with Bella, whats got you staring over there?" He chuckled with a smirk.

---

Skylar nodded softly before she turned back to her plate. "You need to grow a back bone." She sighed, "she'll never leave you alone if you don't show her you're not scared of her." She said. "I mean your a witch show her that your not afraid to hex her, it doesn't mean you have to."

Blaise yawns softly as he ate some food. He didn't care what people thought. His momma raised him to have a napkin over his legs at all times. He heard Draco and said, "Shut up." He ran a hand through his hair ignoring him. He saw the smirk and made a face.

Bella sighed and said, "I know, I know." She ran a hand through her hair picking at her plate having list her appetite from that. She pushed it away and sighed. She said, "I know. But.." She sighed trailing off. She laid her head down on her arms.

@ Raven Skye;
"What's her name?" Draco pressed, "Stella, Sherry." He thought just trying to get under his skin. He knew who Skylar was, but he wanted to irritate him.

---

Skylar placed her hand on her friends back, rubbing softly. "I get it confrontations aren't something you're comfortable with dealing with." She sighed, "but what if this happened when it's just you and her?" She questioned, "she'll see it as a sign of weakness and exploit it."

Blaise looked at him and said, "Not as if I haven't seen you keeping your eyes on her the whole time. This way, I actually do know her name" He told him smirking. He then sighed popping his neck and back feeling way too damn tense.

Feeling her hand, Bella soon relaxed and just stared ahead at the table. "I don't want fights.." She said. She looked down at her fingers and said, "They lead to bad things. Why can't she just leave me alone." She said. "One day I'm going to get angry.." She said. She didn't know what would happen then, though.

@ Raven Skye;
Draco smirked over at him, "yeah well I at least plan on acting on it, and not cowering away." He teased, taking a bite of his food. His eyes darted up looking at Bella and Skylar.

---

Skylar sighed shaking her head, "maybe you need to get angry and show her that." She told her, before she started her meal. "It might show her that Draco is yours and she'll back off."

Blaise rolled his eyes as said, "Must I remind you I'm in an arranged marriage?" He said. He sighed and finishe up his meal. He yawned softly. He looked at the ceiling looking at the crests of the houses.

Bella blushed and said, "He is not Skylar!" She fretted. She sighed shaking her head. She then muttered, "I don't know what will happen if I get angry, though." She said. She joked saying, "I could cause mass destruction." She giggled knowing it wasn't true.

@ Raven Skye;
Draco scoffed, "may I remind you your nor married yet." He told him, as he continued eating. He should have never skipped breakfast. But then again he knew the sooner he got to school the sooner he'd be able to see Bella.

---

Skylar scoffed, "please, he's so wrapped around your finger." She chuckled out. "You really think he would have stepped in if he didn't like you, Pansy is a pureblood." She told her, "and he defended you over her."

Blaise rolled his eyes and said, "What's the point when I will be?" He questioned raising an eyebrow. He sighed and then smirked and chuckled for a minute before yawning again. He said, "Bloody hell, I'm tired." He rolled his eyes for no reason but to wake himself up.

Bella raised an eyebrow and said, "He's not mine!" She told her sighing. Bella's face turned red and said, "Shhhhhh!!" She bit her lip gently. She got a little of her appetite back. She nibbled on a carrot. She then took a sip of her drink and hummed once again.

@ Raven Skye;
Draco sighed out, "all I'm saying is, at least expeance love before you get locked into a loveless relationship." He shrugged, before letting out a yawn. "It has been a long day." He informed him.

---

Skylar chuckled a smirk on her face, "you're in deniale." She sang out. "He's practally over there drooling over you." She said pointing to the Slytherin table, she wanted her friend to be happy. And the way she'd been talking about Draco, he could do it.

Blaise laughed and said, "How about you do the same mate." He said. He then smirked as he popped his back lightly groaning from the long ride. "Yes it has." He said. He waited for them to dismiss them to their chambers.

Bella shook her head and said, "No!" She crossed her arms over her chest and said, "Noooo shhh" she said. She covered her ears. She then said, "You should totally hang out with Blaise though. He seems into you." She said. She smiled and snuck some carrots into we backpack for Alexander.

@ Raven Skye;
Draco looked at his friend, "I plan on it." He said, his thoughts elsewhere though. He was actually starting to get tired, and wished he could tend to his perfect duties already so he could then get some sleep.

---

Skylar sighed, "you need to worry less about me." She nearly snapped. "I'll do whatever makes me happy, you on the other hand aim to please others and put your happiness last." She practially scolded. "So excuse me for trying to get you to see that some one believes you'll make them happy."

Blaise smiled and said, "Good." He yawned setting his head on the table. He closed his eyes tiredly. He eventually started to doze. He was aware of everything that was going on around him though.

Bella flinched listening to her. She looked down, picking down at her hands. Setting her head down in her arms, she clutched her arms together. Turning her blue eyes down, she murmured, "Sorry..." She trailed off softly. She closed her eyes, feeling bad now. She hadn't meant any harm, or for Skylar to snap at her.

@ Raven Skye;
Draco sighed, "and what about you?" He asked, noticing Dumbledore raise from his seat. He was about to give his good night speech.

---

Skylar sighed, "stop that." She said to her friend. "You need to quit worrying about everyones feelings and just say what you mean instead of tiptoeing around." She told her. "I didn't mean to snap at you I'm just tired of being so sad."
