Chapter 3
Draco's heart was still thumping wildly. For a moment before she thought Harry would hit her or worse, hex her.
Draco ran to her room, her hands desperately clasped her front shirt. "Damn. Of all time," Draco bit her lip to hold back her tears. "This has to happen now. Damn you, Potter."
Her mind was still full of Harry when she absently yelled the password to the Slytherin common room and ran to her room, so fast that she was already disappeared before her friends got a chance to say something.
"Draco." Pansy banged on her door. "We have party down there."
"Need to shower." Draco yelled back and ran to the bathroom. She hastily put off her clothes but stopped when another cramped attacked her.
"If I have to go through this for the rest of my life, I might as well become a boy." She breathed heavily.
She ran the water as hot as she could take it before turned it cold.
"That bastard." Draco put her head into the cold tile. "How dare he did that to me." But she couldn't forget about the kiss, or Harry's lips.
Harry was staring at his hand. He had touched something weird. His mind marvelled at how soft it was.
"Harry."
Harry groaned inwardly. He was tired and sweaty and he wanted his bath. A cold bath. He waited until Ginny stood before him.
"Where have you been?" Ginny looked excited. "We've started without you."
"Really?"
"Hello? We win, remember?"
"How can I forget? I caught the snitch." Harry replied, he didn't meant to be sarcastic but fortunately Ginny was to occupy to notice.
"Yeah." Ginny grinned and grabbed Harry's hand and pulled him to the centre of the room.
Harry let himself being dragged. He felt his armed against something soft as Ginny hugged his hand. It reminded him of Draco.
'Damn, how can I be fooled?' Harry thought. 'It was obviously a girl's body.'
Harry looked around and saw his friends' happy faces.
"Harry, what took you so long?" Ron grinned at him.
"Met someone." Harry smiled back. "Look, all of you just have fun, I need to shower."
"Yeah, you do that. You're spreading weird perfume." Hermione pretended to cover her nose.
Harry gently pulled away from Ginny's grasp and walked to his room.
'It was a girl's body.' Harry mused. 'So either Draco Malfoy is a girl or it was a fake Malfoy.'
Harry carelessly threw his clothes. "But she really looks like Malfoy." Now that he was alone in his room, Harry could freely spoke his mind.
"So, unless Draco Malfoy is a girl, than it must be someone who took Polyjuice Potion to pretend to be him. Or better, it was Claire Malfoy."
Grinning happily, Harry took his bath. He planned to meet Claire later.
It was the next morning that Harry got a chance to talk to Claire. He confidently took his step to the Slytherin table.
"Good morning, Pretty." Harry smiled to the startled blonde.
"Harry." Claire, fast to recover from the surprise, smiled back at him. She stole a glance over her still sulking sister.
"Can I have a few words with you?" Harry felt the threatening glares chose to give the girl his full attention.
"Sure." Claire stood up, she followed Harry out.
Draco glared as the two of them left the Great Hall. She planned to stay in her room this weekend and avoided the Gryffindor, but Pansy managed to pull her out. She would guess that something had happened if she refused to go out. Then her friend would demand her to tell her what had happened and a demanding Pansy was something she would like to avoid.
She thought that Harry would like to corner her about the kiss. Her first kiss. And she knew better to follow her instinct. It hurt to see her sister smiling happily when she went back to her seat to continue her breakfast.
Harry was nowhere to be seen but it didn't matter. She knew when she again lost her crush to her sister. 'Damn.'
Draco felt it was so hard to be in the same room as her sister. She left her almost untouched breakfast and went to her room.
But as always she knew that it was so futile to avoid her sister. Claire never learnt when someone didn't want her. Especially when that someone was Draco.
Draco put aside her Potion book as the insistent bang on her door didn't stop.
"What do you want?" Draco barked to her sister.
"I think that I should tell you this earlier so that you could prepare yourself, Dracy." Claire smiled as she walked to Draco's bed, leaving Pansy closed the door for her. "I know that Harry is a tolerant guy but I don't think he would be that patient if his date was late."
"What are you talking about?" Draco's glared was ineffective since her sister never even scared of their father's glares.
"I'm talking about a kiss," Claire was pretending trying to remember the things she wanted to say. "A crush and a date."
Draco was blushing furiously now.
"What kiss?" Pansy looked between her friends.
"Dracy and Harry was kissing." Claire giggled, as if she was revealing the biggest secrets.
"He told you?" Draco was so embarrassed that she couldn't look at her friend. She cringed at the pet name only she and her mother called her. She thought the name was sweet, and feminine, but apparently her father didn't think so. Though he couldn't stop his wife and daughter to call her that, he never acknowledged Draco as a girl.
"Yes, but it didn't surprise me. I saw you yesterday." Claire grinned, her eyes saying don't bother to deny, I was there, I saw it and I knew it.
"Why didn't you tell me?" Pansy looked at her with amusement shone in her eyes. She then turned to Claire. "And what did he want to do with you."
"Well, she thought it was me who pretend to be my big brother," Claire rolled her eyes, "we never kiss before and how one kiss make him think it was me was beyond my thought. Anyway, he said that he's interested in me and wants to have a relationship with me and if I am to refuse he would told Dumbledore that Draco let me play him yesterday."
"But that's ridiculous." Pansy grinned.
"Yeah I thought so." Claire nodded. "But so Slytherin. It's kind of sexy, don't you think?"
"What did you tell him?" Draco asked weakly, ignoring the question, though in heart she was screaming how sexy Harry was.
"I said that I enjoy the kiss and I want the date." Claire grinned. "And you have to prepare since you're the one who are going to the date."
"But I didn't say yes." Draco shyly looked at her friend for her support.
"I saw you kiss, remember?"
"Did you spy on me?" Draco glared.
"Please, I just wonder why you didn't get back then I saw you two kissed, and then you ran." Claire frowned.
"Why did you run?" Pansy had the similar frown on her face. "You could just slap him."
"My bra was loosened and I think he touched my breast." Draco looked at her hands.
"So that's why he thought Claire was playing as you."
"Oh, come on, Dracy, I know you like him." Claire looked disappointed. "This is your chance to know him better. Let me tell you this, those who you had had crush on before are nothing, Harry here is something, and more over, he likes you."
Draco's mind was working very hard to take in all what her sister told her.
"What do you mean they're nothing?" Pansy tilted her head.
Claire looked sadly at her sister. "I'm sorry, Dracy. I know it's so unfair that Daddy make you live as a boy. When you like a boy and didn't have the chance to get close to him, I took it as my duty to judge him. You know, deciding whether he is worth Daddy gets angry with you for revealing your true gender." Claire blushed. "You are my sister and I love you and I want to make sure you get the best guy."
Draco was speechless. She just learnt how truly her sister cared about her and it made her heart warm with happiness.
"Well, you took it as you job to protect you sister, that's cool." Pansy smiled mockingly.
"Hey." Claire grinned.
"I thought you like Harry." Draco looked at sister.
"I do. He's nice even when he doesn't like my brother."
"I thought you said he likes me." Draco frowned.
"Yes, he doesn't like Draco, but I'm sure that he likes Dracy very much."
"I think so, Dracy, or he wouldn't bribe Claire to go on a date with him." Pansy smiled assuredly.
"Come on, Dracy, say yes." Claire went to hug her sister. "I could always say no to him but I know you like him. Why don't you give it a try?"
"Okay."
"Good." Claire grinned happily. She pulled Draco to the full body mirror and stood beside her. "We look so much alike that you only need to wear the girl's clothes and do your hair like I usually do it. Hmm, maybe I need to cut my hair a little." Claire touched her hair.
"You'll do that?" Draco glanced at her sister. She always thought of her as annoying little sister, and in a matter of one hour her thought was drastically changed.
"Well, I always tried to have the same length as your hair," Claire took the brush and combed Draco's hair. "But you put so much jell on it that I can't guess how long your hair actually."
"Pansy, will you help me?" Claire put her hands on her hip when Pansy hadn't moved from her spot at Draco's bed.
"Now, Draco, Harry said he wanted to take you out for lunch so we better hurry. I'll take my clothes here so you can choose."
"I'll get some of my clothes too." Pansy finally stood up. "I'll get some lipstick and I assure he would want to kiss you again."
Draco stood silently as her friend teased her.
"What about you?" Draco looked at her sister. "What would you do when I'm being you?"
"Don't worry, Dracy, I would be you when you have fun so no one would notice you're gone." Claire winked at her.
"And no one will meet two Claire. That's perfect." Pansy nodded.
"Well, you would want to avoid Blaise if you'd be me." Draco grimace at the thought of her friend. "He's not really fond at me this time."
