【HP】I don’t want to fall in love, I just want to mess around

Draco listened to Esther's entire plan and remained silent for a long time. After clearing all his thoughts, he said, "What a great plan. It will be bad luck for Umbridge if she messes with you."

Although it was a compliment to her, Esther was not satisfied with his choice of words: "How can you say that she is unlucky? It sounds like she is very innocent. It should be said that she deserves it if she encounters me."

Draco couldn't help but smile. He shook his head and said with emotion: "Okay, okay, anyway, you are better than Slytherin in terms of scheming."

Esther disagreed with this: "This is all a conspiracy on my part, not scheming. If she is a good person, can she still fall into the trap I set on the surface?"

"Is there any difference?" Draco spread his hands, expressing his incomprehension.

Esther snorted, not wanting to argue with him, then raised her foot and kissed him: "But you performed well this time and cooperated with me very well. I will reward you with a kiss."

She said with a grin.

Draco's face turned bright, and he was about to say something more when his conversation was interrupted by the sound of something falling to the ground.

They turned around and saw that Ernie had left and returned for unknown reasons, and the cake he was holding fell to the floor.

"you……"

His eyes widened in disbelief, and his body froze as if under a petrification spell.

Esther and Draco quickly separated as if they were guilty.

Damn it, it was exposed so unexpectedly.

"Am I dreaming?"

Ernie murmured to himself: "How else could I see Esther kissing Malfoy..."

Draco raised his eyebrows. He deliberately teased him and whispered: "Yes, you are just dreaming. Close your eyes and count to ten, then you will wake up when you open them."

Perhaps the impact of this scene was so great that Ernie actually obeyed and closed his eyes, and began to count down to tens.

Draco didn't expect that he would actually obey and close his eyes. It seemed that the impact of the scene just now was not that great for him.

But okay, since you think it's a dream, let him think it's a dream.

Draco raised his wand.

Esther quickly stopped his wand and asked in a low voice: "What do you want to do?"

Draco subconsciously fought for the wand and said quickly without knowing why: "Let him forget what just happened. Oh, it's almost too late!"

Esther hesitated for a moment, Draco had already broken free from her blocking hand, and at the same time Ernie opened his eyes after counting.

"That's too late."

Draco shrugged, unable to tell whether he was happy or unhappy.

In the past, he actually wanted to make his relationship with Esther public, and he wanted to hug her openly in the crowd, walk with her and have meals with her.

But now things have changed.

He suddenly felt lucky that the relationship between them was not made public, otherwise...it would implicate her.

A complicated look flashed in Draco's eyes, and then quickly disappeared.

When Ernie opened it, he found that nothing had changed and he had not "woke up".

He couldn't help but reach out and pinch his arm, and then the pain brought tears to his eyes.

"Stop pinching me, this is not a dream."

Draco took a step forward, waved his wand, and cleaned up the cake that fell to the ground. Then he looked up at Ernie and said with a smile: "You are not dazzled, things are just as you see."

Ernie was dumbfounded. He looked at Esther in disbelief. He was so surprised that he couldn't control his tone, and his voice broke and sounded absurd: "Esther! What's going on!"

"Uh..." Esther didn't know what to say for a moment. She hesitated and said, "How about we find a place to have a good chat?"

"Right here!" Ernie was unmoved: "I'm afraid you might find a way to fool me if I change to another place."

Esther:…

Why are you so smart all of a sudden?

She and Draco looked at each other, Draco seemed unconcerned and his eyes signaled her to make a decision.

So Esther could only step forward and stand with Draco. She felt guilty for some reason, so she didn't dare to look at Ernie and lowered her head and said, "As you can see, he and I are secretly in love."

Ernie:! ! ! ! !

For a moment, he suspected that Esther was under the Imperius Curse. Otherwise, how could she say such shocking words?

But reason told him that everything was not as complicated as he imagined. It was just that they were secretly in love and he discovered it.

But it was this "just" that he couldn't accept!

He squatted down in pain and muttered: "This world is too magical, how can you fall in love? Don't you always go against each other after the dance? ... Your relationship is so tense, how could you fall in love all of a sudden? Woolen cloth?"

Draco glanced at Ernie who was squatting on the ground muttering to himself, then turned to Esther and said, "Your brother seems to be stupid."

"You're stupid!" Esther pushed Draco gently, then walked to Ernie, squatted down and asked worriedly: "Ernie, are you okay?"

Hearing her voice, Ernie suddenly raised his head and asked Esther: "Esther, tell me honestly, did he threaten you to be with him?"

"...No." Esther answered truthfully: "We are in a normal relationship, there is nothing else."

Draco listened, and although he was a little worried about how their relationship would affect Esther if word spread about it, for now, he was happy to hear her admit their relationship in front of others.

"Then I really don't understand." The confusion in Ernie's eyes grew even more: "Why are you in a relationship with Malfoy? Your relationship has never been good. We fought until both of you were hospitalized. Why did you suddenly become a man and a woman? Friends?"

"Of course it's because Esther discovered my excellence later." Draco raised his head and said proudly, "A person as outstanding as me is welcome wherever I go."

Esther glanced at him speechlessly, and couldn't help but retort: ​​"Stop being narcissistic."

If she would have retorted normally, today, for Ernie's sake, she spared him some face and didn't say anything harsh.

Ernie seemed to have been numbed by the series of blows. He silently helped Esther stand up, looked at his sister in front of him, and then at Draco who looked like he needed a beating.

In appearance, they seem to match each other very well.

That's just the appearance.

He closed his eyes and had to accept this very shocking reality.

"When did you fall in love? Why did you hide it from everyone?"

he asked.

It was Draco who answered his first question: "We were together last semester. As for why I didn't tell you...?"

He looked at Esther.

The reason why Esther concealed her relationship with Draco was so that after Voldemort returned, their family would not be implicated because of their relationship.

Mainly because of Draco's family.

Dumbledore knew that nothing would happen if they fell in love, but if other Death Eaters or Voldemort found out, things might become different.

Voldemort didn't necessarily trust the Malfoy family much in the first place, and he might not trust them even more by then.

Naturally, she couldn't tell Ernie about these considerations. Esther could only say: "Dad doesn't let me fall in love at school. I'm afraid he will break us up if he finds out."

"I've never seen you listen to your uncle so much before."

Ernie couldn't help but complain.
