"If I did something I'm not suppose to, will you give me a detention then?" Charlotte asked with a sigh. Of course she wasn't going to do it with him around. She didn't even know why she was even bothering to ask again. Maybe she would do something with a younger prefect around. When he hauled her toward the door, Charlotte didn't bother to struggle. She would just come back when he wasn't there.

"I'm not going to be giving you a detention any time soon" Draco informed, "Although I am going to take fifteen points from Gryffindor." He told her as he opened the door to the greenhouse and walked outside, pulling her along with him.

[charlotte]

"Fine," She said quietly, "That would keep them from contacting me for a while." Charlotte couldn't believe that she was letting her house just so her parents would be mad, but sometimes she didn't have her priorities right. Just like my demented family. She thought bitterly.

[draco malfoy]

Draco supposed she wanted him to ask why, but he didn't care, so he didn't. Instead, he made a snap decision. "Know what, make it thirty." He decided, then turned back to reenter the greenhouse. Foolish girl.

[charlotte]

"Even better." She said as she walked away from the greenhouse. Charlotte then remembered what she had come into the greenhouse for. The brunette ran back into the greenhouse and looked for the watering can. The only problem was that she couldn't find it and she also didn't remember where she had put it. Charlotte crawled around the floor looking for the watering can, while having a strange feeling that the can somewhere obvious and right in front of her. She didn't care if Draco took more points from Gryffindor, right now the brunette's plants mattered more to her than stupid points.

Draco had moved the watering can as he reentered the greenhouse, and so it sat on the table beside him. He heard the dumb girl rustling around, though, before she got close to him, and so stood in front of it, waiting for her to notice.

[charlotte]

It was hopeless, and the brunette was ready to give up. As Charlotte stood up, she saw the watering can by him and she walked over and grabbed it. "Tell Professor Sprout I'm borrowing this." She said over her shoulder as she walked out the door. If he didn't, she would tell the professor herself, when she saw her.

Draco crossed the length of the greenhouse in three steps and snatched it back from her, shaking his head, "This is school property, you're not taking it with you." He informed, keeping a tight grip on it as he turned around to continue his work.

[charlotte]

"I'm not taking it off of school property and Professor Sprout knows what I'm going to do with it." Charlotte said as she tried to snatch the watering can back from him.

[draco malfoy]

Draco drew his wand, pointed straight at her chest, and dared her with a serious look. "You're not taking it without her express permission, so it'd be best for you to stop right now. I have no problem hexing you and taking you to the hospital wing, saying you tried to break into the greenhouses and didn't leave when asked. My story will be true, and my word will be taken at higher value. I suggest you go."

[charlotte]

Charlotte seriously thought about not leaving and letting him hex her. She had, and she would have gone through with it if it weren't for the fact that Professor Sprout might believe him. Him of all people. The brunette let go of the watering can reluctantly and started towards the door. That was when Charlotte realized how childish she was, fighting over a watering can, and a laugh escaped her lips.

[draco malfoy]

Draco cared little for her laugh, whatever it was for, and let her go without another word; after all, he was in a terrible mood as it was, and some dumb bint of a Gryffindor - however pure her blood was - was something he didn't need.
