i woke up and walked over to my window. i stared outside at the rising sun. when i looked down at my desk, i saw the finished essay and a small piece of parchment on top of it. i picked it up and read it:

ivy, i tried my best to copy your handwriting. it's so much neater than mine, haha. hope slughorn doesn't suspect anything. - D

i felt that feeling of my heart skipping a beat again. i was awestruck at the fact that draco had gone through the effort of writing my entire essay. i smiled to myself and put the note down, walking to the bathroom.

i decided to do my makeup "extra special" that day since i was in a favorable mood. after classes, leo and i both sat down on my bed, as usual.

"you've been in a good mood," leo observed, "is it because of aiden?"

"no," i grinned and blushed, "it's draco..."

"wow," he continued, "i never thought you'd say that."

i went on, "he wrote my whole essay for me since i was too tired to do it. but i get the feeling that something's off. what if he's being too nice to me?"

"ivy– i can tell when someone's in love. draco is. with you."

i sighed but he ignored me, "ask him to the ball. if he says yes, you'll know for sure he's into you."

just then, a small note flew in from the window. i ran over to it and looked down; aiden was there. he rapidly smiled and walked away. i picked up the parchment and read it to myself:

dear my sweetest ivy, meet me at the astronomy tower when the sun sets. i look forward to stargazing with you. i pray you'll be there. love, aiden.

i looked up at leo, "aiden wants me to meet him at the astronomy tower tonight."

"well– the sun's setting soon. you better get ready fast," be began walking away, "think about what i said. i know you have a crush on dra–"

"i don't!"

"mhm." he replied, walking out and closing the door.

i put on a blue floral babydoll dress and quickly clipped some of my hair up. i took one last look in the mirror and hurriedly went over to the astronomy tower. when i arrived, i saw aiden wearing a white t-shirt and black jeans. he stared me up and down and grabbed my waist.

"you look sexy." he grinned down at me.

"kiss me, aiden." i said, looking up at him.

he pressed his lips on mine so perfectly i nearly died. he pulled away after a moment and asked, "how was that?"

"divine." i responded.

he smirked and began kissing my neck. butterflies filled my stomach and i grabbed onto his hair.

"so are we actually gonna do some stargazing?" i giggled.

he brought his face back from my neck to my face, "if that's what you want."

he paused, "though i would like to kiss you a little more."

i smiled, "i don't mind that."

he beamed back at me and carried me to one of the benches. he placed me on one of the them and proceeded kissing my neck. i felt a rush of sexual excitement and sensed he had felt it too. he pulled his lips off of my neck to stare into my eyes earnestly and grabbed the hem of my dress, slowly pulling it up.

i put my hand on his shoulder, "what if we get caught?"

i felt his hand slide on my bare thigh up to my naked waist as he whispered, "we won't."

he pushed me back on the bench, allowing him to position himself on it and gradually pulled off my white lace panties. i took a quiet breath and glared at him. once my panties were off, he gently place them on the ground.

all i could hear was our slow breathing and crickets chirping.

he looked right into my eyes and whispered, "i want you all tonight."
