A/N: Mmm, Myrtle... Yeah, there's no other words that I can say about her...
Chapter 36-
Albus leaned over toward Severus who watched the body of students with a frozen sneer on his face. "The Jayradox is working..." he murmured so only Severus could hear.
Severus turned his head slightly just enough to look Albus in the eye. "Already?" He whispered.
Albus gave a tiny nod.
"Incredible..." Severus' eyes glazed over. The potion had worked. The girl had proven herself yet again. He really should stop doubting her; everything she had said had been true. Well, except for the Divi flowers growing under his apple tree- something that still confused him.
His eyes found Miss Dursley at the Gryffindor table. She appeared to be returning to her normal self- slowly. She was actually conversing with her friends again. And, just yesterday, he had watched the complete group of the seven Gryffindors and Slytherins slip into a room to study for their upcoming exams. Exams that were still months away, but, like last year, they were getting a head start. Perhaps Miss Dursley would bring her grades back up. It had disappointed him that someone with so much potential had let it all slip away in just under four months.
She still hadn't told him about the book, but she had it, he'd bet his life on it. He supposed Miss Dursley would tell him when she was ready; when she was desperate enough. She was a true Gryffindor, stubborn as a bloody mule. Their mascot should have been a jackass. Severus let a grunt of amusement escape his throat.
"An estimation of a year has been made." Albus said.
"Just that little?" Severus raised an eyebrow. "After all those two have been through? After all these years?"
"It is a phenomenal potion indeed." Now Albus was staring at Miss Dursley with his eyes sparkling wildly. "Much like the person who brought it into this age."
"Someone else probably discovered it." Severus grumbled. "We're claiming credit for another person's work..."
"It's meant to be." The old wizard didn't seem to mind the idea. "Otherwise she wouldn't have suggested it."
"How can you be so sure?"
"Has she done anything that would make you believe she's selfish?"
"No..."
"Her motives are purely immaculate. "

"Tom Riddle..." Myrtle hummed out the name. "Yeah, I remember him. He was quite a good looking boy." A wide smile spanned across her face.
"Yeah..." Dahlia agreed with a wrinkled nose. Good looking or not, he was still a bad person.
"I seen him naked once." Myrtle whispered with a wicked grin.
"Um... okay." Dahlia's response was uncomfortable.
"I didn't think a penis could be so big at that age."
Dahlia snorted out in laughter. "You have no limits, do you?"
"Ah, just you wait, Lia." Myrtle said. "You'll only need to see one, and that's all it'll take. Everything on the inside will tingle and the sight of a good look boy or man will make your heart rate pick up." She winked.
Dahlia's eyes widened at the thought. When she was younger- much younger, she had had glimpses of the males in her house, but that was much different. They were her family. The intimate part of a male was nothing to get excited over. They kind of all looked the same anyway, just like the female parts did. Could she really have a different opinion now that she was six years older?
"I even saw him and a girl have a sexual moment." Myrtle said smugly.
"You did?" Dahlia gasped out in surprise. By what Riddle had told her, it didn't sound like he had so much as snogged a girl.
"Oh yes." Myrtle purred. " You should have heard Abagail's moans. Tom definitely knew what he was doing." She then frowned. "It kind of made me envious. I never got to do anything like that."
"Well, fourteen is a bit young." Dahlia pointed out, while also wondering why a girl would moan during such an activity.
"Oh, you'd be surprised." Myrtle sung out. "Some students are a bit... vigorous."
"Lia...?" Draco stood just inside the bathroom, eyeing her and the books she was surrounded by,
"Get out!" Myrtle instantly shouted. "Can't you read?! This is a girl's bathroom!"
Draco jumped a bit at the cross voice of Myrtle's before he grinned. "You're not so scary."
"Scary?" Myrtle questioned, a bit dumbfounded. "Who said I was scary?"
Draco gave a careless shrug. "It's a silly rumor. One of the fifth years in my house said you like to haunt this bathroom and succeed in scaring students."
Myrtle huffed, insulted. "What are you doing in here?" She asked with her arms crossed along her chest.
"I was wanting to talk with Miss Dursley." he and Dahlia exchanged smiles.
"Ooh, I see." Myrtle giggled with amusement, eyeing the two second years. She floated to Draco and circled around him. "Yes, I can see why you like him." Myrtle nodded, speaking to Dahlia.
Draco quirked up an eyebrow. "Do you now?" He asked Dahlia.
"Well, I can't like a boy who spends no less than one second than I do prettying himself in front the mirror." Dahlia replied, turning her attention to her astronomy book.
"I think you should kiss her." Myrtle suggested to Draco with a low, taunting voice.
"Huh?" He choked out.
Dahlia unconsciously bit her lip. She'd never kissed a boy before. Well, not that way. Judging by Draco's reaction, she doubted he'd ever kissed a girl.
"Oh, are you a kissing virgin?" Myrtle asked the stunned boy.
"Well...I... uh... NO!" He finally burst out. "I mean... I've kissed a girl before..." he said with a shrug, trying to pretend it was no big deal.
"And did you use your tongue?" Myrtle asked eagerly, wanting to hear all the details.
"No... that's pretty... disgusting..." Draco said, giving it a thought.
"That's not what your friend thinks." Myrtle said with a purr.
"Which one?" Draco demanded for an answer.
"The Italian one."
"Blaise has... tongue kissed a girl?"
Mrytle nodded with shining eyes. "And then more."
Draco looked down at Dahlia, wetting his lips. She had kept silent, listening to the two, and couldn't help having had picked up Draco's tones of voice. Going from shocked, to curious, to envious. She knew where this was going. She met his grey eyes and noticed that her pulse had started skipping, as if she had just ran up a flight of stairs. His breathing had picked up. He still stood at the door, with his mouth slightly open, deep in thought on what Myrtle had just informed him with.
"Well?" Myrtle prompted. "Are you two going to kiss or not? I can just feel the chemistry. Okay, not really, but it's definitely there."
Draco looked away helplessly. "I have a status to keep." He said quietly. "If news came out that the Malfoy heir was crushing for a mudblood, my family's name would be kicked around as if it were some disobedient house elf. So, I can't show any sign of liking you. The only reason I have been able to get away with our friendship was because of you being Harry's cousin."
Dahhia knew he was right, and understood his reasoning. Perhaps she could even agree with it. He needed to keep his status with the Slytherins so the union between their houses could successfully be made. Besides, she couldn't get close to anyone.
"Let me ask you something."
"Sure...?" he eyed her warily.
"You really are my friend?"
Draco rolled his eyes. "Of course. I just have to keep it low keyed."
Dahlia nodded. "So what are you going to do about your crushing feelings for me?"
He sighed and shook his head, staring at her. "I don't know." He said.
"Maybe it's just temporary." she told him softly, hiding her disappointment.
"Merlin, I hope so." He muttered.
"Gee, thanks a lot!" Dahlia said, feeling insulted.
"I didn't mean it that way." Draco said apologetically. "If I weren't a Malfoy, it would be different."
She nodded, but didn't say anything.
"I am rare; nearly extinct. In fact... my parents will probably plan my betrothal next year. It happens with most pureblood families."
"That's... awful..." Dahlia searched his face for what he thought of it.
"There's not many pureblood girls to choose from." Draco wrinkled his nose. "Father is very close to Mr. Parkinson. I bet I'll get stuck with Pansy."
"Ewww!" Dahlia shrieked. That girl was a snobby, nosy, ugly girl. Not to mention, there was rumors of her spending the summer kissing a boy from Durmstang. Although, some of the boys found this interesting, and, anyone of them that she was willing to give her time to, were practically lining up to get close with her.
"Indeed. She acts like she's something, but she's nothing. I deserve better." Draco said bluntly.
"Like a mudblood, hmm?" Dahlia teased.
Draco scoffed. "See you tomorrow." he grunted, choosing to not comment on that. He turned his back on her and quickly left.
Dahlia stared at the door, thinking hard about his situation. She couldn't help but to pity Draco. It was not much different than her having to tolerate the disgusting toad of a Craig. Thankfully, Mum couldn't force her to marry that boy, but Dahlia had an idea that it may be different for Draco. He had a lot of weight resting on his young shoulders. She had only been a part of this world for a year to understand that being the sole heir of a Wizard family was very important. Especially to those pure, or close to it. She couldn't help thinking on how behind the times the wizards were. With as powerful as they were, they sure lacked a much needed liberation.
