-THE NEXT FEW WEEKS PASSED BY IN A BLUR AND IT WAS NOW ALMOST YULE. Adhara and Alyssa have become great friends, much to the dismay of a certain muggleborn.
"I don't want you to be with.. her." Hermione tried, desperately looking at her girlfriend, who was smoking by the edge of the astronomy tower.
Adhara didn't even glance at the girl next to her, "She's just a friend."
"Yeah, and you're straight." scoffed Hermione sarcastically, "Please, Addie. The thought of losing you scares me."
"You have nothing to be scared of, Mia." Adhara finally looked at her, pulling her girlfriend close, "I don't want her."
"But she wants you, and I don't like it."
"She's just a friend." Adhara repeated, giving her a kiss on the forehead, "I've got to go. I'll see you soon, darling."
Hermione sighed and watched as her girlfriend walked away, leaving her alone on the astronomy tower.
About five minutes later, movement was heard from behind her, making her turn around. She immediately glared at the person, "What are you doing here?"
Alyssa smiled, "To see the stars like I always do. I'm Alyssa Nott-"
"I don't care." Hermione interrupted her, making her smile falter, "Stay away from my girlfriend."
Alyssa tilted her head in fake curiosity, "Girlfriend?" She scoffed, her smile now replaced with a slight glare and a mocking look, "You really think she wants you?"
Hermione looked at her in disbelief, "We've been together for a year."
"Almost." Alyssa corrected knowingly, "However, the thing I don't get is.. what does she want with you?"
"Pardon me?"
Alyssa tutted and let out a mocking laugh, "Have you ever even thought about it?"
Hermione looked confused and slightly scared, not knowing what answer she'd get, "Thought about what?"
"Surely you've atleast given it a thought?" mocked Alyssa, "No? Pity. Let me explain: you're a mudblood, she comes from three of the sacred 28 pureblood families: A Rosier, A Black, and A Malfoy."
"She doesn't care for blood-purity!"
"Really? Her father, Sirius Black, probably doesn't, but she's not her father." Alyssa pointed out, "She's a Slytherin like the rest of the Blacks were. She holds the heirship of the Malfoys and Blacks, probably even the Rosiers soon. Does that not give you the answer you need?"
"What answer?"
Alyssa's eyes lightened up, "Being a pureblood comes with a price. Sure there's wealth, fame and power, but that must continue for the next generations, which would only happen by marrying another pureblood. Not a mudblood like you."
"What are you trying to say?" questioned Hermione, already having tears in her eyes.
"What I'm trying to say is, your relationship is going nowhere. Give it a few months and she'll find someone much better.." Alyssa pointed to herself with a mocking smirk, "Maybe she'd even want.. me."
"Don't flatter yourself, Nott." Hermione shot back, "You're not all as you seem. She's not dumb. She'll realize soon enough."
"By the time she realizes, your relationship will be broken."
"I won't let that happen."
"Like you could stop it." laughed Alyssa, "You're a mudblood. I believe she's just in a relationship with you because she pities you. Even I pity you, honestly. Being that ugly, can be tiring-"
"Then you must be exhausted." Hermione cut her off, "Now, get out. You won't succeed."
Alyssa smiled and tilted her head, "We'll see, Granger.." She said and walked away.
Hermione took a few deep breathes, trying to calm herself down, but it was no use as she dropped to the ground and let her tears drop.
Alyssa's words actually made sense..but is Adhara even like that?.. Of course not.
She shook her head, trying to make those thoughts disappear, but it still was no use..
