“You don’t get it do you Potter?” he asked viciously. “I get that you think she’s some easy airhead” Harry said as he dusted his robes off. “Don’t EVER say that again Potter…
and you can stop trying to steal her off of me…she’s mine, got it?”. Harry dabbed at the blood on his lip before replying “all you ever do is cause her problems, what makes you think she would want you?” he asked bitterly.

Draco ran his hands through his hair in exasperation “I don’t care that she’s in Gryffindor, or a mermaid, or bloody Dumbledore’s niece either! I’m in love with her!” Draco than stormed off towards the castle, leaving a gaping Harry Potter standing by the lake side.

---------------- Gryffindor common room ---------------------------
“Malfoy says he’s in love with her!” Harry raged at his two friends. Hermione raised an eyebrow above her Potions book. “Love? He’s been breathing in too much of that dungeon air!”. Ron gaped at Harry, but he did have to admit the bloke looked tortured without her. Harry collapsed in an armchair by the fire “you two have to promise not to tell ANYONE about this… but Pandora is… she’s a mermaid”.

Hermione and Ron both gasped in unison. “How do you know?” Hermione questioned eagerly. “I saw her, she had a gold tail”. “That’s amazing… they say mermaids can seduce any man or creature… I suppose that would explain Malfoy then, wouldn’t it?” Hermione explained. “I don’t know Mione.. I mean Malfoy? Why would she try to seduce that prat?” Ron said incredulously.

“instead of all your gossiping maybe you should ask me yourselves” Pandora said as she closed in on them. Harry blanched and averted his eyes as she glared at him. “Pandora… I’m sorry… can you tell us what’s going on?” Hermione said gently. “You know I didn’t want to hide anything from you…I don’t want to hide it from my friends any longer, yes I am a mermaid… and I am in love with Draco” she said plainly. The trio gaped at her, at a complete loss for words.

Hermione came to her senses first “but Pandora, you’ve barely known him a week… and why wouldn’t you tell us sooner that you were a mermaid?”. “I’m sorry Harry, but after being harassed all day with questions about these ridiculous pin on me I have to give yours back, I did not truly realize what they meant and I am sorry to hurt your feelings but I really do love Draco… you see mermaids have several lovers at once… I didn’t think it was so strange to have both pins, but I realize I’m not at home and your both wizards. I know I have only known him a week, I am not rushing into anything yet though. I didn’t tell you I was a mermaid because I didn’t know if you would accept me” she explained with a determined look in her eyes.

She plucked the pin from her jacket and handed it to Harry. He stared blankly at the golden pin in his hand. “I’m sorry Harry” she said with pain in her eyes. “don’t Pandora… you should learn quickly that we will always accept you…I’m sorry for how I acted today…if you want to be with Malfoy… well just know I’ll be here if you need me”. She leaned down and gave him a soft kiss on the cheek. “thank you Harry”.

Things slowly went back to normal for the four that night, mainly they had questions about being a mermaid and Pandora told them her whole story. Harry was just glad she was talking and laughing with him, her angry side was frightful. Over the next few days Draco simmered in his anger, she kept giving him the cold shoulder and he felt like he was going crazy without her. He noticed she only wore his pin now, which made him elated… but she wouldn’t speak more than a few words to him and she slapped him every time he tried to steal a kiss.

Every morning he squeezed beside her at the Gryffindor table and tried to get her to talk to him. Each day he felt like he was the laughing stalk of the school, though in truth he couldn’t have been more wrong. Their relationship was the like the soap opera to follow, all the girls thought he was so romantic and sweet to bring her little presents and pining after her, and all the guys didn’t blame him for chasing her they way he did, she was just that captivating.

One morning he lost it when he tricked her into a little game to get her to talk to him. He brought her roses that morning and watched her admire them with a smirk across his face. He would always take the same position, leaned into her with his chin resting on his hand as he stared at her. “Morning love” he drawled as he handed her the roses. She was slowly wearing down for him and he could see it. He was use to the slap at the end of the kiss, but knew it was worth it every time. He gave her a quick peck on the side of her cheek and managed to only get a light tap on his cheek. “Morning” she said curtly. “Sleep well?” he asked. “Yes” she replied quickly. “have your potions essay done?” “Yes” “want to shag me?” “Yes” she blushed like mad at his trick. He settled back into his breakfast with a satisfied smirk. “ahh Pandora, your wearing down love” he said as he took a long swallow of pumpkin juice. She just gave him a cold glare and started chatting with Hermione. “Do you love me?” he asked over their conversation. She turned her head and stared down at the table.

It hurt her to push Draco away, she knew she loved him but after what he had done to Harry she was certain they were not right for each other. She came from a very non violent people and he could have killed Harry. His fits of rage scared her and sickened her and she decided she would try to make herself forget about Draco. She knew over time it was completely hopeless to forget about him, when every time she saw him she rejoiced inside. “Pandora…do you love me?” he asked adamantly. She continued to ignore him but the trio took to staring at the pair and she could feel the tense silence around them.

He was growing horribly impatient and to him it seemed like everything was weighing on what she would say in response. He asked again and she turned her head away from him. He reached around and grabbed her chin and forced her to look at him. “Do you love me?” he demanded, the anger and pain searing through his silver eyes. He saw the fear in her face and wanted to die. “Yes” she whispered quietly. He crushed his lips down onto hers and she let out a yelp into his mouth. All his pain and frustration were in that kiss, as well as all his love and the passion trapped inside of him. He wasn’t coming up for air and felt himself growing dizzy and reluctantly released her. Her eyes were clouded over in dazed pleasure and she simply stared up at him. He caught his breath and pushed her hair back out of her eyes “you can’t stay mad at me forever” he said in his silky baritone before leaving the table.

Pandora stopped slapping him after he pecked her cheek in the Great Hall, even though he started stealing kisses at breakfast lunch and dinner. That morning he gave her a set of new magnets and watched her entertain herself with them. Ron kept giving Pandora nervous stares for the better part of the morning before he screamed at her in the hall between classes. “PANDORA! WILLYOUTEACHMEHOWTOSWIM?” he screeched nervously. Pandora covered her ears “Ron…you hurt my ears…are you mad at me for something?” she asked with terrified eyes. Ron’s face turned as red as his hair and put his arm around her. “No… sorry, it’s just that…” he trailed off. “just what?” she asked curiously. He whispered into her ear “I can’t swim… will you teach me?”. A dazzling smile spread across her face and Ron felt himself melt. “Oh yes! I would love to teach you!”. Ron never took his arm from around her shoulders, with neither Draco or Harry in sight he decided it was safe.

Later that evening Pandora guided Ron to the black lake and started stripping her Gryffindor uniform off in front of him. Ron stood in quite awe, wearing his maroon swim trunks and his Chudley cannons towel draped across his shoulders. “Umm Pandora? Do you not have a … swim suit?” he squeaked. She shimmied out of her knickers and Ron turned away to stare at a large bolder. “why would I need one? I’m a mermaid” she giggled.

He heard a splash and turned around, she was already in the lake, her school uniform in a pile on a boulder. “Come on in Ron”. She said splashing the water about with her fin.
He took a good long look under the water at her bare breasts and swallowed hard. “you’re… ummm your …you know’s are showing” he said nervously. She gave him a curious expression “my what’s?” she asked. “your… breasts! I can see them from here!” he yelped.

She looked down at her bare breasts with a frank expression. “so?” she said as she swum to the edge where Ron was standing. “SO?! I can’t be looking at your tits when I’m trying to swim… I might drown”. He whined. She started to get impatient with him “Ron, mermaids don’t wear clothes…so just jump in, I promise you will not drown while I’m here” she coaxed.

He gave her a terrified expression and she grabbed his ankle and pulled him in. With a large splash he was bobbing in the surface of the water gripping on to her for dear life. “You have to relax Ron or you’ll get a cramp or something”, “what if Harry sees us? He’ll kill me” he explained. “Ron you’re my friend too…I’m allowed to teach you to swim… I wish everyone would stop treating me like Harry and Draco’s property”. She said as she tried to untangle him from her

Ron knew what it was like to have his identity challenged, being constantly tagged as Harry’s friend or Charlie’s little brother. “I’m sorry… your right… I”ll try to relax”.

“Good, first I will teach you to float, now try to lay back in the water” she soothed. He just stared at her, gripping her shoulders. “you have to let go of me… here I’ve got your hand, now lay back”. Ron found he could open up to Pandora, he didn’t have to measure up to impossible standards because she seemed to like him for just goofy old Ron. He thrashed in the water a little before he started to relax.

Pandora joined him, and they floated hand in hand in the water. “you have to let every muscle go, just like your going to go to sleep… I like to watch clouds like this actually” she explained happily.

That’s all Draco heard before he saw her clothes in a pile. He had been following her all day trying to think of someway to get her back, he quickly ran to the Lake side. “what the fuck is this Weasel?!” he bellowed. Ron paled and took in a mouthful of water. “Draco… I am teaching Ron to swim… look what you made him do… spit it out” she said as she pounded on his back.

Ron grappled onto to Pandora and she held him up with her powerful tail swaying in the water. “this is how you choose to teach him? With your tits on display?!” he raged at her. “if you think trying to shame me into your strange way of life will work, you are very wrong” she said coolly.

“get your hands off my girlfriend Weasel!!!’ Draco screamed at Ron. “I am not your girlfriend… and he’ll drown if he doesn’t hang on to me Draco… don’t be cruel” “Cruel? You don’t think what your doing to me right now isn’t cruel?” he barked. She rolled her eyes at him and drug Ron with her to the side of the lake. “DON”T you dare touch him!” she warned as Ron clung to the grassy edge of the lake. Draco gave her a pinched expression “Pandora, can’t we at least talk about this?” he reasoned with her.

She folded her arms over her bare breasts and gave him a cool glare. “Please” he asked desperately as he offered his hand to help her out of the water. She ignored his hand and pushed herself out of the water, her tight ass and legs glistening with water. Ron’s eyes were as big as saucers as he gave her an open mouth stare. “you better stop drooling over her while you still have a tongue in your head Weasel” Draco growled.

Ron still gawked at her, seemingly not hearing anything Draco was saying. “Ron , I think we better call it a day… I’ll meet you back up at the common room later ok?” she said with a soft smile. Ron just nodded slowly at her.

Draco ran his hands through his hair as he stalked off, expecting her to follow, he looked back at her exasperatedly when she stayed planted. “in private?” he questioned. She slowly followed him. He chose a spot behind a large bolder so the Weasel couldn’t hear or look at them.

He gripped her shoulders tightly and she grimaced in fear. He had scared her to death when he was strangling Harry, she thought he was very capable of actually killing him. He recoiled inwardly at the look of fear on her face and opened his mouth to speak but she cut him off. “Why are you following me around?” she said suddenly.

“I… I want to make sure your ok, I’ve wanted to talk to you for days”. His eyes gazed over the bruise on her stomach and traced it with his finger, to his relief she didn’t smack him. “I’m sorry for hurting you, please forgive me?” he said with a pleading look in his eye. “I’ve already forgiven you, but I don’t want you following me around, you should stay away from me Draco” she said with pain searing through her voice.

Draco pinched the bridge of his nose “I can’t” he stated simply. “try” she offered. “I have tried… I know you hate me, but I’m in love with you… you can’t ask me to stay away from you… it would kill me Pandora” “you showed me who you really were when you fought with Harry, we would not be right for each other” she said sadly.

He grabbed her shoulders and stared into her eyes, he felt rage and love and frustration well up in him, he felt so alive when he was with her. He drew her to him and crashed his lips onto hers and let his hands roam over her naked body. He kissed her with everything he had, all his pain and joy trembling through his lips onto hers. His tongue traced her lips and sought entrance to her mouth, which she granted instantly. He heard her moan into his mouth when he cupped her breasts. He was making everything inside her heat up and her muscles seemed to melt, she felt a deep empty feeling in her core she had never known before. It was when he released her she understood what it was to need someone you love.

“tell me that didn’t feel right?” he gasped as he released her lips. “tell me you don’t feel like your on fire when I kiss you, or dream of me like I dream of you…or hurt when I hurt…tell me you don’t love me and I’ll walk away” he said in a hoarse whisper against her lips.

The tears were spilling down her cheeks in torrents and her whole body was shaking. She wrapped her arms around his neck slowly and pressed her body against his. She placed a single soft kiss on his lips. “I love you more than you know… but you hurt me so badly” she choked out. He grabbed her up with a growl and her feet left the ground, she instinctively wrapped her legs around his hips.

“you’ve shredded me like a razor every day since I met you…but I can’t get enough” he said as he sucked on her earlobe. He set her on large flat rock and leaned into her, nibbling on her skin greedily. “why does it hurt?” she asked as she let her hands memorize the muscles of his back. “that’s love… I’d give anything for you… so every little thing you do effects me too”. She let herself drown in the feel of his lips, sucking and nibbling on her skin hungrily. “I dream of you every night and cry when I think of you leaving me” she whispered into his ear. He whispered back “you have me, I’ll never leave you”. He sucked on her neck and her collar bone before she cupped his face with her hands “make love to me Draco” she said as she stared into his stormy eyes.

He was hard as soon as she kissed him and could feel her pressing into his body. “Pandora…” he trailed on with an uncertain expression. “Draco, I don’t care how different we are, or if we are right or wrong for each other… you made me need you, and I need to feel you now” she said as her fingers went for the buttons of his shirt. He stole a quick deep kiss before he withdrew “let me get rid of the Weasel… I’ll be back” he was so hard he didn’t think he would make it longer than 5 paces. He managed to convince the Weasel she would be ok and they would continue their lesson, with proper bathing suit, later. When he came back to get Pandora she was lounging on the rock on her back.

Her legs crossed at the knee as she ran her hands over her breasts slowly. Draco didn’t know it but she was thinking of him as she slid her hands over her body. He crept over to her silently and stood over her, her eyes closed. Her face was upside down from his at this angle and he kissed her greedily, sucking in her bottom lip.

He was surprised at how quickly she reacted and she won control over his tongue. “mmm Pandora” he mumbled into her mouth. His hands grabbed her breasts and rubbed her nipples with just his thumbs. He was too busy trying to taste her skin to notice the large storm clouds began to roll in. She grabbed his hands and sat up on the rock. “Draco… I want you to take me now” she said as she pulled him to her, wrapping her legs around his hips.

He took her hand in his and gave her palm a kiss “here?” he asked incredulously. Her eyes raked over their secluded location, she pushed herself off the rock and down Draco’s body and guided him by the hand to a soft clearing of grass surrounded by trees. She started to clumsily unbutton his shirt and he quickly unbuckled his belt and slid boxers and trousers off of him. He kicked them off him as she slid his shirt over his shoulders and sucked on his collar bone. “are you sure out here?” he whispered into her hair.

She sank to her knees and placed a light kiss at the tip of his cock. “I’m sure” she coaxed as she flicked the tip of his cock with her tongue. She licked him like a lollipop and he let out a low moan before sinking to his knees in front of her. The grass was lush and cool on their skin and a light dusting of little white flowers had settled all over the grass from a beautiful cherry tree near them.

He grabbed her and pushed her onto her back, he drank in the sight of her spread out in front of him. Her ruby hair poured out in all directions around her face and a soft pink blush was spreading all over her body.

She had no body hair and he could see her arousal glistening on her pussy lips. Though his body was screaming for release he took his time with her and stroked her fire to an inferno. He kissed the top of her foot and up her legs, over her knees on her hips over her stomach. He slipped his tongue into her belly button and grinned as he heard her giggle. He kissed up her stomach between her breasts over her shoulder and down her arms.
He wanted to know every inch of her, what were the most sensitive and which gave her the most pleasure. He found the backs of her knees were ticklish and her neck and shoulders elicited soft moans of pleasure.

He kissed her eyelids and her cheeks and nibbled her earlobes before sliding his tongue over her luscious lips and claiming her mouth. He placed two soft kisses on her nipples one at a time and she ran her hands through his hair as he suckled greedily on her nipples.

She bucked her hips when her nipples became rosy and taut. He hovered over her, his hands still palming her breasts. She jumped when she heard a loud crash of thunder and his cock rubbed against her pussy lips. She let out a soft moan and explored the sinewy muscles of his body. He stared at her longer, a soft summer rain began to shower over them and he watched as the rain drops fell down her cheeks like tears.

“what’s wrong?” she said when he stopped caressing her breasts. “your beautiful…I can’t believe your giving yourself to me… I don’t deserve your love Pandora” he said with the melancholy in his eyes. Another rumble of thunder broke out in the dark grey sky above them and she gripped his hand. She brought his hand to her pussy. “shhh… fill me Draco… I want you so badly” she said softly. He ran his index finger over her slit before sliding in further, he teased her labia and slipped his finger into her opening. He felt her virgin folds, and felt the resistance of her hymen. He probed it carefully with his long nimble fingers. He pumped his finger into her as he suckled on her nipples, pushing in deeper and faster he slid in two fingers, then three… pumping slowly into her to get her ready for him.

She was so slick and wet for him he could hardly keep his head straight. “Draco…” she whispered as he pumped into her. He removed his fingers and sucked them into his mouth. He loved the way she tasted like pineapples and a soft moan muffled in his throat.

She ran her hands through his hair and over his strong back as the warm soft rain showered over him. He positioned himself at her entrance and as he gently slid inside her he claimed her lips. He heard her stifle a gasp of pain as he breached her hymen. He hated causing her pain, it was true that when she hurt, he hurt right along with her. He stilled when he was fully sheathed inside her, letting her adjust to him as his eyes locked with hers. He made love for the first time in his life, he had bedded many witches but had never made love until this instant, when he was deep inside Pandora.

She was lost in his eyes and slightly acknowledged the pain spreading through her loins. He was more than gentle as he began to slowly pump himself in and out of her.
He hovered over her, his forehead pressed to hers, her legs wrapped around his hips as they rose and fell with each thrust. She let little whimpers escape her lips when he would sink deeper into her. They never once looked away and though she still felt pain she never wanted him to stop.

She held on to his shoulders as the rain softened to a drizzle. He went deeper into her and hit a spot inside her she had never knew existed. It felt like her insides pulsed with heat and her walls tightened in pleasure. He groaned as she milked his cock harder, he was on the brink of exploding inside of her. He fought hard to not lose control and ravage her, he wanted her to come and he was determined to watch her unfold in front of him.

He sheathed deep into her and with slow short thrusts hit her sweet spot over and over. He rubbed her clit to a hard nub as he hit into her harder, “DracoOOHH” she moaned loudly as she felt her juices run down her thighs. He got his reward, to see her eyes flutter and her head tilt back as she was wrapped around him, his cock buried deep into her. He saw the couple of tears streak down her cheeks when she came. Within a few strokes more he came inside her like a geyser. She felt her hips buck against his hips in an after shock of pleasure as he filled her womb. He had never spilled that much seed in his life and his breath hitched before he collapsed on top of her.

“Pandora… I love you” he gasped into her chest. She lovingly stroked his hair as he buried his face in her breasts. She felt his hot tears fall onto her breasts and she wiped them away with her thumb. He leaned in and kissed her tears away. She had never felt more loved in her life than when she saw him broken in front of her, he exhausted his body inside of her, and had surrendered his heart to her in that instant.
