If Love Is Sweet, What Is This, Draco Malfoy?

I went back into my room and then started crying for some reason. Why was I upset? Why did I feel so battered? I knew all along that Draco was a lust-filled, sex driven maniac and that he would always, always let me down. I knew he wouldn’t change. So now that I found evidence, why did I feel so blue? Sure, all that ‘hexing Faye’ stuff hadn’t just been because she was being a bitch. It was also because of what I heard in between Draco’s and Blaise’s fight.
“No I’ve had enough Malfoy! Every time I like a girl, you fuck her before I get a chance to ask her out. And then she’s so sick of you after you ditch her, that she doesn’t want anything to do with you, which means she’d turn me down too! First it was Carmen, and then Faye, and now Maia!”
When he said Faye, I knew he meant Faye Werther. The slut that hung with Kat. My ex-friend. I thought Blaise had more class than Faye, but she could wrap anyone around her finger. I was more disgusted at the fact that Draco slept with Faye. I couldn’t believe he would do such a thing. We could never have a relationship. Every time we had a high in our relationship, something about his past would haunt us again and then break us up. Me and Draco couldn’t ever be together. I was stupid for ever thinking that. I should have listened to Tanya. She was right. What I needed was a clean break. I hadn’t listened to her. When I did listen to her, everything had turned out right. The moment I didn’t, things screwed up. I pulled out my LG phone, and started typing a new message
Hey Tanya. It’s Maia. Just wantd 2 txt u bout… well… Malfoy. He’s such a jerk! You wer right! I shud av had a clean break. Our past, mostly his, keeps hauntin us now. We argue more than evr. When I listened 2 u, things turned out right. Now they’r screwin up agen. can’t believe I turned down real nice guy that would care 4 me, just caus of Malfoy! I mean, I actual thought me & Malfoy could figure this thing out! But we honest 2 god cant! Turns out he slept wit 1 of my best friends. They’re both whores 2 be honest. would just like 2 get rid of him completely. don’t know what to do. Help me plez babe. swear I’ll listen 2 you this time. sorry I didn’t before :’(

I sent the text and waited impatiently for her to reply, and was glad that she did

Seems to me that you like this really nice guy that would care for you. Perhaps you should date him? It wouldn’t just help with closure. It would be like rubbing ‘what he’s missing’ right in his face. Go out with the guy you like and see how it turns out. It could never hurt to try could it? And you know what, if a friend, no, a best friend could do that to you, I don’t think she should even be classed as a friend. If she were here right now I would punch her. Obviously I’m not telling you to. Hope you’re ok though babe, Tanya

I pressed reply and got working on a text

I do like Blaise (nice guy). nd I think it wud b gud 2 show Draco he’s not the only 1 that’s attractive round here. Don’t worry, did punch her. did more than that. Think almost killed her. sure I’ll be fine ;) thanks Tan, always come through 4 me wen I need you. Love u, Maia

Once I sent the text, I skipped down to the boy’s dorms in hope of finding Blaise. According to my luck, I bumped into no other than Malfoy. Glaring at him, I shoved him out of the way, snarling as he tried to talk to me. I carried on walking and he ran in front of me, calling my name
“Maia I don’t know what today was about but-” he started, before my glare made him stop and flinch slightly
“Move” I hissed, and slammed him against a door with my wand, the door splintering, and went over to Blaise’s room before knocking on it quickly and impatiently. The door opened for me to see Blaise, and I grabbed his face before kissing him roughly. The kiss soon turned passionate as my anger faded away, and I closed the door with my leg, not letting go of him as we carried on kissing. He pulled me onto the bed and rolled over so that he was on top of me, before stopping and sighing. I looked at him worriedly. As he was about to speak, I heard someone groaning out side and getting up, before knocking on the door loudly, smashing their fist into it, so that it shook the door. Blaise ignored it and continued
“Maia… as much as I love you and want to do this… I know you’re not ready just yet. I want our first time, if there ever is a first time, to be right. I’m sure I’ll regret this later, but I have to stop now, putting you first” he whispered, moaning as I carried on kissing his neck. I stopped and looked at him, shocked, before nodding. Malfoy would never say that. If I threw myself at him, he’d gladly make use of one of the numerous condoms in his robes. “But wow” he mouthed, as he seemed in a dazed trance, realising we’d just kissed. I grinned “I thought you said it was complicated?” he asked in a shaky voice.
“Maia don’t do this! Maia! You’re better than this! I know you’re upset but don’t do this! He’s not good for you! Maia!” I heard Draco scream from the other side. I bit my lip
“One phrase cleared it all up, Blaise. I know where my truth path is. Whether that’s with you, I don’t know. But I know sure as hell it is not with Malfoy” I told him, glaring as I repeated Malfoy’s name. He smiled and sighed, touching my cheek, and I flinched. Blaise looked confused. To be honest, I was pretty sure I was too. Maybe it was just because Malfoy had repeated those actions earlier in our friendship? And I didn’t want Blaise to be like Malfoy. My hopes fell. They had been the best of friends for years on end. Of course they were going to be the same. I couldn’t help feeling guiltier as I realised that their friendship ended over me. I sighed and got up as Blaise rolled off me. He still looked confused, and I smiled sadly, before stroking his cheek lightly. “You’re so much like him” I whispered. Blaise carried on looking confused before anger flashed in his eyes.
“No! No I’m not! Me and Malfoy are nothing alike!” Blaise protested.
“Blaise open this fucking door right now or I’ll blast it open!” Draco screamed
“Maia!” Blaise said, as I got up “Please don’t! Please!” Blaise begged.
“Maia please don’t! Please!” Draco begged, not hearing our conversation. I smiled sadly as Blaise saw my point of view when Malfoy repeated what Blaise had just said.
“I’m sorry Blaise” I whispered, before kissing his lips lightly, and his eyes shut, before reopening as I pulled away from him. I walked over to the door, and opened it as Draco said the first word in his charm, to see him trying to punch a few holes through the door but not getting entirely through. As I saw him, my hate thickened, and I punched his face and performed a binding spell on him so that he couldn’t move, before going to my own room. I didn’t want him chasing after me again pathetically. I ignored everyone else, and slammed my room door shut before breaking down on my bed. He had to ruin it. Every time.
