Always. (A Draco Malfoy Story)

Who are you?

I get to the Slytherin Tower as the trio leaves me and gets back to theirs.
I enter the common room and look around. Tall ceilings for something nicknamed "the dungeons."

I see Tori sitting on the couch with the boys, Malfoy included.
"What were you doing with them?" She asks. I reply, "They just showed me around a bit." Bliss scoffs, "We have prefects for that."

Malfoy looks up at me, "Who are you?" I smirk, "If you had paid attention during dinner, then you'd know." I introduce myself, "Rosie Snape." He raises his eyebrows, "Snape?" He looked to everyone else, "Is she serious?" Getting confirmation from them instead of me.

I roll my eyes, "Maybe if you'd get your head out of your ass, and not obsess over a sweater, then you would've seen my father introduce me." Tori chuckles at my back talk. Malfoy shoots her a look then focuses back to me, furrowing his eyebrows, "Watch who you're talking to, Rosie. My father—"
I cut him off, "Heard he's in Azkaban." He glares at me as I go on, "Sorry to hear. If you need a shoulder to cry on..." I tap my shoulder, "... I'm here for you." I smile sweetly at him as he scowls and walks up a staircase, with Crabbe and Goyle following him.

That left Tori, Blaise and I. They both chuckled at my bravery. Tori looks at me, "I like you. No one really talks to him like that." I raise my eyebrows, "Oh yeah? Why's that?" Blaise chimes in, "Cause he's an asshole. My dear best friend, but an asshole."

Two girls sit in the place where Crabbe and Goyle were and begin to speak. "Rosie, right?"
I nod when I look at the two. One sticks her hand out, "Pansy Parkinson, and this is Millicent Bulstrode." She cocks her head to the side in the direction of the other girl. I look down at her hand and shake it, "Nice to meet you." Bulstrode talks, "...Are you really Snape's daughter?" I scoff, "Isn't it obvious?" I flip my hair off my shoulder, "Don't I look just like him?"
The two girls stare at me but don't answer my question. I roll my eyes, "That was a joke." They looked at each other then to me. Great Merlin, lighten up people.

"Anyway..." Parkinson goes on, "... I wanted to offer my friendship to you." I hesitantly nod, "Sure?" She keeps talking. Fuck, her voice is annoying.
"And as your friend I should let you know that Draco is off limits," She glares at me.
Sev did say that he was quite popular here. I look at her innocently, "What does that mean?" Bulstrode adds in, "They're dating."

Tori cackles, "No they're not, you bloody git! You broke up second year!" Parkinson snaps her head to Tori, "He still loves me!" Tori answers back, "You're fucking mental if you think he loves you!" Parkinson huffs and storms up the same staircase Malfoy went up to, Bulstrode following behind.

I turn to Tori and Blaise, "What the fuck was that about?" Blaise chuckles, "Pansy and Draco used to date second year. He broke up with her like a month or two afterwards. The girl is obsessed." Tori adds, "He hates her guts though. He hasn't dated anyone since."

I nod at the new information. Tori looks at the clock, "Oh, it's getting late. Let me show you to our room!" She kisses Blaise goodbye and drags me up the staircase to I guess where all the rooms are?

My sleep was interrupted by an owl tapping on our window. I get out of bed and turn my bedside lamp on. I put on my fake glasses and walk over to the owl, grabbing the letter from its beak.

Rosie,

An update is being requested. Find my office, now.

Father Snape

I giggle at the words 'Father Snape.'
He's so uncomfortable with having a fake daughter but needs to keep up with the act. I look at the clock on my desk: 10:16. It's past curfew. I need to make it quick before I get in trouble and get an earful from Sev and Voldy.
I change my clothes and sneak out of the tower.

-

I find his office, which thankfully isn't too far from the dungeons.

"I don't know what else I can tell you. It's literally the first day." I kneel in front of the fireplace in Snape's office as I speak to Voldy, as his face appears in the wood that's burning. Voldy asks, "Have you gotten any new information?" I smile and proudly say, "I'm friends with Harry Potter."

He grows quiet and looks to Snape, who's towering over me to look at the face of Voldy, "She did that on her own, my Lord." I roll my eyes, "I can keep on him about any progress he's made at his attempt to kill you. I'll be your eyes on the inside." Voldy smirks, "Very good, Joy."
I smile back and slowly stand up. "Is that all? Can I go back to sleep now?" I don't even wait for an answer, "I just leave the room completely exhausted.

On my way back to the dungeons, I see a familiar looking blonde exiting a room. It's Malfoy.
I stay hidden in the shadows as I watched him look back at the wall as the door he's just exited through slowly disappears. What the fuck was that?

My foot hits a rock, making an echo bounce down the hall. Malfoy looks in my direction and I quickly hide behind the pillar. It's quiet for a bit so I look back at where I last saw Malfoy, and he's gone? I deeply sigh, 'Thank Salazar he didn't see me.'

I turned around and bumped into something... or actually someone.

"What are you doing here, Rosie?"
Standing before me was Malfoy, staring down at me with his icy grey eyes.

I didn't know how pretty they looked.
