"Hurry up, I want to get a good seat!" Hermione groaned, as she patted my back. I gulped down my eggs and sucked down my pumpkin juice. Then got up and walked to the Quidditch field with Hermione and Ginny. I was so excited. I really wanted Draco to catch the snitch. I felt my pocket one last time to make sure I had the 10 gallons, just in case I lost. Not that I thought I would, but Ben and I are  wizard and witch of our word. And even this was no acceptation. I parted with Hermione and Ginny, and found a seat in the Slytherin section, next to Blaze Zabini.

"Hey Corrine! You ready?" Blaze asked.

"As I'll ever be" I announced. I looked down and watched as the Hufflepuff team filled out onto the field and the Hufflepuff section went wild. Ben waved to me and I waved back. Then he mouthed to me,

"It's not to late to back down, cousin" I rolled my eyes and mouthed back,

"In your dreams, Cousin."
Ben shrugged and mounted his broom. I shook my head and looked to the other side of the field, and watched as the Slytherin team filled onto the field. The Slytherin stands went bonkers and Blaze even sent fireworks in the shape of a snake into the air. I laughed at Blaze and clapped along with the rest of the Slytherin. But I didn't really start cheering with the rest of the Slytherin until Draco came out on to the field. He smirked, and scanned the stands, no doubt looking for me, and Blaze. I did my best to hide myself, but Blaze grabbed my arm and pointed to me. Draco nodded to him and blew a kiss to me, which made a few Slytherin girls behind me faint, but I know it was directed at me. Then the Slytherin team mounted their brooms and just like that the game was off. I couldn't hear what the announcer was saying because of all the screaming in my ear, but with what faint things I caught I could tell Hufflepuff puff was winning. Ben is the best Hufflepuff  Keeper there is. I watched the Quaffle was passed around, while Crabbe and Goyle hit the bludgers towards Ben.

"Hey watch it, goons! That's my Cousin!" I yelled at Crabbe and Goyle. Blaze put his hand on my shoulder.

"Bean is your Cousin?" Blaze asked. I nodded.

"It's a long story." I explained. Blaze nodded.

"If you say so."

Then I watched as the snitch wizz by and stop short. I stared at it for a moment. Then the snitch took off toward both the seekers. It flew around them to grab their attention, then flew up into the clouds where no one could see them. The stands were sound less... To me at least. Nothing else mattered anymore. If Draco caught the snitch, Slytherin would win. And that's something I'd like to have bragging rights about. Soon the two seekers emerged from the clouds, chasing the snitch. Kinley was in front of Draco, but Draco was close on her tail. The snitch made an immediate dive, and so did Kinley and Draco. The two were neck and neck now. I'll admit, Kinley was incredible. But in the last second, Kinley panicked and pulled up to avoid crashing, which left Draco on his lonesome, to catch the snitch. From there everything seemed to be in slow motion. Draco nabbed the snitch, and pulled up just before impact to the ground, just skimming the toes of his shoes. He held the snitch in his and and the whole Slytherin stand shook with cheers and roars of approval. Blaze and I jumped up immediately and high fived. Draco looked to me, and I gave him my biggest grin I could. Meanwhile every girl in the stands behind me were working their way to the front, to hopefully touch Draco's hand, which pushed me forward, almost over the edge of the stand.

"Sit back, you're gonna push me off!" I hissed at the girls behind me. One of the girls, I think... I couldn't tell if she was a she or a dog in all honesty, decided it would be the best idea ever to push me forward, causing my hand to slip and sent me over the edge. But at the last second, I grabbed the edge of the stand with one hand and held on for dear life. I screamed Bloody murder.

"PANSY!!! WHAT THE BLOODY HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU?!" Blaze exclaimed, extending his hand out for me to grab.

"Oops." Pansey replied, with a devious grin. But it slowly faded when something behind me, appeared. Meanwhile I latched my other hand on to the edge of the stand, hoping someone would help me. My hand slipped as I tried to pull myself back up. I screamed again. My arm was getting tired.

"Corrine! Just grab my hand!" Blaze shouted, extending his arm farther. I reached up but didn't get enough momentum, and slipped. I closed my eyes tight, to avoid crying, but that didn't help. Suddenly the falling sensation stopped. Instead I was now floating. I opened my right eye. Was I dead? I looked around. This was not the grass. In fact this wasn't even solid. This was a set of arms and a body. I opened my left eye and looked up. It was Draco, with Ben right behind him. I sobbed into Draco's chest.

"Shh. Shh. It's ok, I'm right here Enny. I'm right here. You'll be okay." Draco whispered in my ear, it try to calm me down. I buried my face deeper. I did not want to see how close I was to severe pain, and possible death. I felt the landing sensation. I got out of Draco's arms, stood on the ground, and... I don't really remember after that. But I woke up in the hospital wing with bandages on my hands, and a splitting headache. I tried to sit up, but was pushed down again.

"No no, dear, don't strain yourself." I heard a very peppy and feminine voice say.

"I wouldn't be straining myself if I sat up. I'd just be using energy." I announced, opening my eyes.

"I'm surprised, they normally don't recover this quickly." She commented. I smirked.

"Snaproot blood, madam. I've had quite a few helpings of Snaproot Serum in my lifetime. It makes recovery real fast." I explained, and sat up. I immediately regretted it when I felt a sharp pain in my hands. "Agh" I gasped. She laughed at me.

"Ah yes, you got those nasty cuts from falling over the edge of the stand, you lost so much blood, you passed out, cold, dear. I'd stay off of those." She announced. I nodded and looked around. Presents of all sorts lined the bed and ground around it.

"How long have I been here exactly?" I asked.

"Two days, dear, on your third." She replied. "You have had many visitors, one that pops in whenever he can find time. He seems very fond of you." She added.

"Who?" I asked.

"Draco Malfoy, dear." She replied. "Speaking of which, he asked me to make sure the first present you opened was this." She added handing me a box. I smiled and accepted it. I was seconds away from getting the ribbon off when a few figures appeared in the door way.

"Cousin Cory!" A voice exclaimed. I looked to the door. It was Ben, Hermione, Ginny, Ron, and Harry.

"Hey guys!" I responded. Ben ran to my side.

"Cory! Thank Merlin your ok! Are you hurt? Do you need anything?" Ben asked.

"Beanie, relax. I'm fine. I could do without the pain in my head and palms though." I commented.

"As least she's honest." Ron announced.

"I do try. So what happened? Why am I here?" I asked. Everyone cocked an eyebrow at me.

"You seriously don't know?" Harry asked. I nodded.

"Last I remember I was falling." I stated, honestly.

"Stormy caught you, and put you on the ground, and you passed out. There was a whole pool of blood under your hands, it was pretty nasty actually." Ben announced.

"Then Malfoy rushed you here, and here you've been for the past three days." Ron finished. I shook my head.

"I guess I was lucky then. That could have been a disaster!" I exclaimed.

"Could have been? Have you seen your hands?" Ben asked. I looked at the bandages again. This time I noticed that they were blood stained. Which only made them sting worse.

"I'm lucky it was just my hands. It could have been much worse, Beanie." I explained. "It scares me to think what could have happened if..." I trailed off. I shook my head. I didn't want to think about that right now. "Anyway, I have presents to open." I added, pulling the ribbon off. I pulled the lid off and smiled. It was a pair of green and sliver gloves, with the letter E. Only Draco would get me this gift.

"E? Who the bloody hell gave you gloves with the letter E?" Ron asked.

"Someone who calls me Enny." I explained, and set the box to the side to admire the gloves more.

"Enny? As in the last part of your name." Ben asked.

"Precisely" I replied, setting the gloves to the side, then going to grab another box.

"Enny?" Asked a voice from the door. I smiled.

"Speak of the devil." I announced, and nodded over to Draco.

"Malfoy? He's calls you Enny? Why?" Harry asked. Draco walked to the side of my bed, pretty much ignoring everyone but me.

"How are you feeling, Gorgeous?" Draco asked, stroking my cheek.

"I've been better." I stated, honestly.

"Corrine? What's going on here?" Ron asked in a warning tone. I looked to Hermione and Ginny, who grabbed the boys arms.

"Come on Harry, they are serving lunch down stairs." Hermione announced, speed walking out. Ginny did the same and Ben ran after them.

"Hey guys wait up!" Ben shouted. I looked back to Draco and smiled.

"You saved me." I announced, suddenly.

"You needed saving." Draco replied, kissing my forehead.

"I'm sorry I gave you guys such a scare. Next time I won't sit so close to the front." I announced.

"It wasn't your fault, Enny. You were pushed off. There was nothing you could do about it." Draco stated. I gasped. I don't remember getting pushed.

"Huh?" I asked. Draco's eyes softened and he got the most sympathetic look on his face.

"Pansy Parkinson. She pushed you off the stands, Enny. She's always been interested in me. But it's never gotten this serious." He announced. I shook my head.

"Pansy? She wouldn't do that. Pansy is really nice to me." I commented mindlessly, then covered my mouth. "What in Merlins beard?" I asked. Pansy hates me. How could I say that she was really nice to me? Draco looked at me concerned.

"Enny? What is your opinion of Pansy?" Draco asked.

"She's cool. In fact I think you should date her and not me." I announced. I covered my mouth again. "Bloody hell. I didn't want to say that." I looked to Draco, with fear in my eyes.

"Looks to me like you've been charmed to say lies about Pansy to cover her tracks." Draco announced, raising a brow.

"Why would Pansy do that? Me and Pansy are like BFF." I commented, and covered my mouth again. I looked to Draco, scared out of my mind. "I swear to Merlin, Draco, It's not me saying that." I announced. Draco smirked and looked to the door and back to me.

"I have an idea." Draco whispered. I nodded and watched as Draco lifted my chin and grind. "Do you think Pansy's lips are as soft as yours are" Draco asked.

"Definitely" I replied like an idiot. I scolded myself for it.

"Do you think Pansy's as honest as you are?" Draco asked.

"I've been lying about liking you this whole time so, I'm sure she's the better choice" slipped out of my mouth. I covered my mouth, and started tearing up. "No, Draco. I would never. I love you." I announced, letting tears stream out of my eyes. Draco wiped my tears away.

"I know. I love you too." Draco stated, and pulled me into a kiss. I heard a screech from outside the door, and Draco pulled back and flung the door open, with his wand. There stood a very frustrated and paralyzed Pansy.

"H-hey, Draco" Pansy giggled nervously.

"Spare us the act, Pansy." Draco announced, lightly tracing my jaw line with his fingers, while looking at Pansy. Pansy looked at me.

"I will have him, Corrine, mark my words" Pansy hissed. I looked at her confused.

"Ok...?" I announced. Pansy huffed and stomped down the hallway. "Not the lightest footed, now, is she?" I asked Draco, with a slight giggle. Draco chuckled in response.

"Or the prettiest for that matter." Draco replied. And with that Draco kissed my cheek and left me to open the remainder of my presents.
