Draco was almost inseparable from Vera except for classes, but the grades were different and the classes were different, so overall they didn't spend much time together.

As long as the time is mastered, someone will always be able to find him alone.

His Divination lesson was followed by Divination lessons for Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw fifth year students.

There is only a ten-minute break between the two.

As he descended the stairs, he saw Regulus.

For some unknown reason, the two of them didn't greet each other.

However, when Regulus brushed past him, he heard the other party whisper, "Stay away from her."

He turned around abruptly, "Why?"

The boy didn't answer.

He stood where he was, and saw the black-haired boy walking forward without looking back.

"What's wrong?" Clark asked him.

"Did you hear that?" Draco asked Clark.

The boy with the fat head said, "What?"

Draco shook his head. "nothing."

He is preoccupied.

At night, Vera had already noticed, "What's wrong with you?" She was holding a thick book with no name, and the gold characters that should have been gilded on it had been stripped of gold by the years, leaving only The next one is dark.

She was sitting on a chair obliquely facing him, with one leg crossed over the other. Her posture did not quite meet the requirements for a lady, but her waist was straight and her upper body was in an irresistibly beautiful posture. add.

But now she is sitting upright, her legs are together, the book is on her knees, and her long, smooth, golden hair hangs down on her chest. like a painting.

He looked at her for a while before realizing that she was waiting for his answer.

"Nothing." He avoided her eyes.

"Really?" She closed the book and put it in her bag. "Draco, what's going on?"

He hesitated for a while, then she had already walked over, bent down and looked at him, "Draco."

Her hair fell from her shoulders, a few strands almost fell on his face, and she seemed to have changed shampoo recently, which smelled like a combination of lavender and mint.

"Tell me," she said softly.He could feel every muscle movement on her face.

He opened his mouth.

The other party's dry fingers were already on his forehead, "Relax." She said softly.

The world in front of him suddenly began to spin.

The other party used brain intrusion on him.

"Relax." She whispered the word again.

And the word unraveled all his willpower.

After a long time, it seemed like only a few minutes.

"He said he wanted you to stay away from me." She said, as if smiling a little.

The finger left him, and he lost his strength for a moment, and fell directly on the sofa.

"Interesting," she said, sitting next to him, "what do you think he meant by that?"

"I don't know." He leaned on the sofa, his vision was a little blurry.

And she took his hand, "Draco, think about it, what do you think he meant?"

What do you mean?

His mind was blank.

He was restless all day long, wondering why the boy said this to him.

The skin on her hands was very soft and delicate, "Think about it. Draco."

"He...he doesn't like you being so close to me?" Draco leaned on the sofa and looked at her.

For a moment, he seemed to see the unknown emotion flashing in the girl's eyes.

But in the next second, she laughed again, "You think so?"

"Isn't it?"

There was nobody in the common room, there was never anyone in the Slytherin common room.

That's probably why the girl preferred reading in the Slytherin lounge to reading in the library.

"Then what will you do?" She sat upright, but only for a moment, and then she put one hand on her chin, leaned on the sofa away from him and looked at him.

He didn't know how to answer.

"Will you listen to him and stay away from me?" The corner of her mouth turned to the right, as if she saw a prey in a trap.

He shook his head.

"So, what will you do?" Her dark emerald eyes twinkled, looking at him intently.

But it wasn't like her usual, she wasn't usually like this.

He didn't know how to answer.

She waited for a while, but still did not get his answer.

So she laughed, "Come on, play with me, let's play chess."

Draco had thought she didn't like games.In the beginning, he introduced wizard chess to her and played with her, and even more than a third of Slytherins played chess with her.

That is, in those few days, she liked to play chess, and she never brought up the matter of playing chess again. Even when someone wanted to play a game with her, she just changed the topic with a smile.

She always wins.

She has never lost since she first learned the rules.

To be exact, she never lost a game.

"I thought you didn't like playing chess." He looked at her and finally spoke.

She shook her head, "No, I like it." She deftly opened the public chessboard in the lounge, watched the chess pieces stand unsteadily in their original positions, and moved a step.

"I just...don't like winning all the time," she said, raising her eyes to him. "Draco, try and see if you can beat me once?"

Suddenly there was no smile in her eyes, as cold as a frozen lake.

He played chess with his parents since he was a child. People need some entertainment when they are together. Although his father prefers to exchange interests through conversation, even Lucius will admit that the relationship of interests is too straightforward. Feel vulgar, in any case need to cover up.

However, as expected.

He still lost.

"You're very talented in this matter." Draco said, and couldn't help but look at her again. "Have you ever thought that you might become a professional chess player?"

Although wizard chess is not as exciting as Quidditch, there are still wizard chess competitions.

But found that she couldn't help but wander off as usual.

Every time she wins, she will be stunned for a while.

But she smiled quickly, "Draco." She said softly, "I haven't played Wizard Chess much."

"But I have played something that Muggles call chess, and the rules of this and that are actually similar," she tilted her head to look at him, and stretched out her hand to brush a strand of his loose hair behind her ear, "However, Regulus and I will always have a [-]-[-] chance of winning." She looked at him intently, making his face unbearably hot. "Draco, if anyone in this world can make me feel like a failure, it must be him."

"Similarly, if there is anyone in this world who can make him feel the pain," she tapped the chessboard, signaling the chessboard to put itself away, "it can only be me."

He was chewing on this sentence, only to find that the girl across from him sighed, and she walked up to him and motioned him to sit aside.

He sat down.

In the next second, the smell of lavender and mint wafted at the tip of his nose.

She sits next to him.Crowded with him in an armchair, knee to knee, shoulder to shoulder.

She was a little shorter than him, but when she sat down, he could see the top of her head at the same level.

She reached out and hugged him.

"You won't ignore me, will you?" Her head rests on his chest, and he can feel his face burning.

He nodded silently.

"He said to keep you away from me." She said it again, and he could feel her chest vibrating, and she was laughing.
