I'm not stupid. (Part 1)

                                    

                                          
(Harry x Draco)
                          
If you've ready my book What Magic? You will know. That my OC and the main character in that series is Serena. Of course I've changes things to fit better into these contexts but that's what this and any other stories with her in them are.
                          
I sat at the Hufflepuff table just observing those at the other house tables when a commotion caught my eye. Another fight had broken out between the famous Harry Potter and the Slytherin Prince, Draco Malfoy. They stared straight into each others eyes as they yelled at one another getting so close you probably couldn't fit a piece of paper between them.
                          
It was so extremely obvious that there was tension in the air. Like if you tried to cut it with a knife the knife would probably break, and I would just be left laughing. This has been going on since first year and I'm not sure what exactly happened between them but I've heard that Harry rejected his attempt at being friends. I mean if I like someone and they rejected my friendship I would be devastated as well, though I wouldn't bully them.
                          
When dinner ended and everyone was headed out of the Great hall I ran toward Harry and grabbed his arm pulling him into an empty hallway. "Hi," I said smiling and waving at him as if I've always known him.
                          
He seemed a bit stunned and weirded out but I had kind of expected that. "Um, hello, who are you?" Harry asked just kind of looking between me and the end of the hall where a few people were still passing by.
                          
"I'm Serena from Hufflepuff," I said as if he should known who I was I mean he doesn't and the only person I personally know that he does know is Luna Lovegood so that could explain some things. 
                          
"Um, nice to meet you, I guess. Is there a specific reason you dragged me away?" Harry asked still looking for answers and seemingly ready to run for it. 
                          
"Oh yeah, I needed to tell you something," I said looking straight at him though I did have to look up a bit since he was a few inches taller than me.
                          
"You're not going to confess your feelings to me are you?" Harry asked a bit reluctantly though I just shook my head and he sighed. "Good, because I have had to turn down too many girls this year alone and really don't like hurting their feelings."
                          
"It's okay I know why you do it," I responded smiling up at him while he just looked at me confusedly raising his eyebrows. "You're in love with Draco Malfoy."
                          
He sputtered looking at me as if I had just killed a dog and used it to punch him in the gut, a weird visual but I digress. "What are you talking about!?! I do not love Malfoy."
                          
"Okay, maybe love is a bit strong at this stage, though I believe otherwise, but you at least like him," I tried to clarify in some strange way that he probably is totally rejecting.
                          
"No, I would never like Malfoy he is an insufferable git. Where did you get that idea from?" Harry stood firm to what he believed, but we all know other wise. I just stared at him cocking my hip to the side and placing my hand on it.
                          
"I mean anyone paying close enough attention to you guys can tell, really I'm not stupid. When you guys are in a room there is so much tension I'm surprised people don't kill over from suffocation. Like really, in real fights if they were to get as close to each other as you guys do they would throw punches, but no all you guys do is stare into each other's eyes. Do I have to spell it out for you?" I said crossing my arms as I raised my eyebrows as if daring him to disprove it.
                          
"I..I um I," He couldn't quite get a sentence out and couldn't think of an acceptable response so he just started to walk away.
                          
"It's just going to get worse," I called after him chuckling but he just ignored me and probably headed off to his dorm to think.
                          
The following weeks as I observed them Harry had done everything he could to avoid Draco as if that would disprove my verdict. Draco looked kind of lost he always tried to start a fight or chase after Harry calling him a coward, or what not. Ron and Hermione started to become very confused as to why he wasn't fighting back anymore. 
                          
After about a month I found Harry leaning against a wall in the hallway we had talked before in. "You can't run forever," I said simply as I leaned against the wall opposite him.
                          
"Shut up, you put this in my head and now I'm all stressed and anxious. This is your fault!" He proclaimed pointing aggressively at me while I just stared at him not taking his crap.
                          
"Really Harry! You think I just put the thought of you being gay for Draco in your head! You think I'm forcing you to think about him, and in that way? I pointed out the truth that you were denying and you can't go pushing off the mess you made on me. You're hurting Malfoy! You rejected his friendship! Have you ever thought that if you had accepted it that things could have been different, that Draco could be different?" I responded angrily at his disrespect and rejection of his own feelings. "This...this Right here, is your own fault."
                          
I put my finger on his chest to push him back, as he had stepped forward while I was speaking, and walked out of the hallway and heading into the Great Hall for lunch. I didn't look up and observe the other tables as I usually did but absentmindedly push around the food on my plate.
                          
I avoided Harry for the next two weeks. I didn't speak to him and I don't even look in his direction. I sat as far away from him in any classes we had together and at the farthest end of the table in the Great Hall. I was going to continue to do this until I saw him standing next to me during dinner one day. I sighed putting a fake smile on my face as I looked up at him. 
                          
"Can I help you, Harry?" I said nicely as I glared up at him still angry that he had blamed me.
                          
"I'm sorry," Harry sighed looking down at me as if in these last few weeks he had finally accepted the truth. "I'm ready, but will you help me?"
                          
My fake smile quickly transformed into a real one as I jumped up and hugged him happily. "This is brilliant!" I whispered excitedly as I pulled out of the hug quickly.
                          
"Potter, is this your new little girlfriend?" Draco said walking up to us with his usual scowl but I was pretty good at reading people and I could see the worry in his eyes. He probably is thinking that if I was his girlfriend that I would take up all of Harry's time and he wouldn't have any.
                          
"Not that it's any of your business, but no she isn't," Harry responded sneakily and Draco's eyes lit up slightly probably because he finally got a remark out of Harry. I elbowed him in the ribs causing him to grown and glare at me. Draco proceeds to look back and forth between us.
                          
"Well, have a nice night," I said grabbing Harry's hand and rushing out of the Great Hall with him trying to keep up with my surprisingly quick pace.
                          
"What was that bloody for?" Harry asked still rubbing his ribs making me chuckle.
                          
"So, does anyone know you're gay or are you possibly bi?" I asked looking at him thoroughly up and down.
                          
"I'm bi and Ron and Hermione are the only ones who know," Harry said rubbing the back of his neck anxiously. "And now you."
                          
"Okay so this whole Draco situation won't be too bad," I responded knowing exactly what was coming.
                          
"Oh contrary to your belief this will be so much worse, like they would probably be okay if I was dating say Dean but Malfoy. The whole bloody school would probably explode," Harry stared dramatically waving his arms randomly.
                          
"Well, I guess if you guys start dating, and you will, you can tell them eventually when Draco has kind of 'calmed down' I guess you could say," I said shrugging my shoulders and starting to walk away and heading back to my dorm. "See you tomorrow, when the real fun begins."
                          
Okay I know it's a bit strange but I actually kind of like writing it where I can actually intervene with the story. Though over all it may be a really strange story...I don't care part two will be out soon✌🏻
