The next day*

(Y/N)'s POV:
It's 5am in the morning. I was laying in bed, exhausted from all the crying I had committed yesterday. I elevated my eyes to the ceiling, and the memories of yesterday came flooding back into my consciousness, causing my eyes to well up. I understand that relationships may not always last, then why am I crying about it? I didn't bother getting out of bed; I just laid there thinking. Should I tell Hermione? No why should I, I don't think bringing her up to this mess will make me feel any better. I shouldn't let this relationship problem compel me to drown myself by locking myself up this dorm room; it's not healthy.
So I hopped in the shower and prepared for class. I'm not the type of girl who wears make-up, but I should try to change that. Instead of allowing Draco and Astoria to see my weak side, I shall show them that I am still content in life. My face will be covered in light make-up to mask the misery I was in. I slipped on my slytherin's robe, grabbed my belongings, and entered the common room. Then there he was, on the couch beside the fireplace, staring at me, the platinum blonde haired boy I knew so well. "(Y/N)!" exclaimed Draco, I took a quick glance not directly in the eyes but didn't respond back, instead exiting the common room immediately. I wasn't hungry, so I skipped breakfast in favor of a visit to the library.
Madame Prince wasn't in the library, I believed she was having breakfast with the other professors in the Great Hall. I grabbed some books about Defence Agaisnt the Dark Arts and sat in the same spot I always do. After a while, I heard the chair in front of me being moved so I looked up, Hermione Granger, my know-it-all Gryffindor muggle born witch. Even though we're in different houses, difficulty was never in the cards for our friendship. She was always there for me when I needed her, and I was there for her when she needed me. Her expression perfectly reflected how concerned she was.
She had a 'tell me what's wrong' look on her face .
"Nothing's wrong, why so concern" I replied and went back to read.
"Nothing's wrong? (Y/N) (M/N) (L/N) will you look at me when I talk?" She snapped back.
I swiftly looked up at her, knowing I wouldn't dare mess up with her after she called me by my full name. That's when things started to become scary and I wasn't going to do it.
The bushy hair took a big sighed and said "(Y/N) tell me what's wrong will you? You weren't there for dinner yesterday and yet here you are skipping breakfast. I was worried about you! And everyone.." she quickly closed her mouth not saying another word. It was now (Y/N) turn to take a big sigh she already knew what Hermione wanted to say " Everyone are talking about yesterday situation. How wonderful. I'm so encouraged to meet everyone by now." I said sarcastically. " Come here!" said Hermione. I got out of my seat and sat next to her, hugging her. She embraced me back started soothing me right away. The memories of the platinum blonde haired boy cheated on me started to fill me up once again for who knows how many time "Draco, oh hermione I wish I could turn back time and listened to you. I thought we would up marrying each other cause I loved him so much. But he..." I slightly chocked on my words crying on the crotch of her neck. " he said he loved me Mione' I thought I was special. I thought I was great after all I did was nothing but loved him so much. Oh Merlin he cheated.. he cheated on me with greengrass, Astoria Greengrass. I felt betrayed Mione' and I still am. What did I ever do wrong? I hate him I really do.. and now I.. I don't know how to face Harry oh Ron, Fred, George.. god I was stupid so stupid to fall in love with him.." I cried.
She pulled my shoulder up for me to look at her and said "Let it all out! Nobody is here just me and you. Listen nothing is wrong with you. Malfoy's just being a pricked. He has cheated himself out of truth and loyalty. You are an awesome person you really are. If you aren't why would a cool brilliant girl like me be friends with you. Mistakes are made, that's okay cause nothing in this world is perfect. You are cool (Y/N) you really are." I slightly chuckled after what she said, I wiped away the tear " Thanks Mione' but what about Harry and Ron? Merlin, they will pulled up ' I told you so' face on me. Oh I feel so embarrassed. Being cheated on is stupid."
    Hermione chuckled " They were worried about you, you know after all the talk in the great hall they wanted to go looking for Malfoy but I pulled them back to their seats cause I know you wouldn't want that to happen. Oh how forgetful am I! I brought you a toast it's in my robe's pocket" she took out the toast and gave it you I mumbled a thanks and started to eat.
     But as I took a nibble, the voice of Madam Prince suddenly rang "NO EATING IN THE LIBRARY, YOU BOTH LADY KNOW THE RULE" I panicked and looked to see her furious face, I apologized and quickly grabbed my bag, and the books, hurriedly exited the library with Hermione following me. As we were finally out of the library we both looked at each other and started laughing. " I didn't even notice her presence. Oh that was so embarrassing " I breathed out and looked at my watch " Oh Merlin would you look at the time we have 2 minutes till Potion start. We should hurry up we don't want to have detention do we." Hermione nodded and we both quickly ran to the dungeons. We were out of breath when we got at our destination, took a pause to catch our breath when I felt a presence behind me, Profesor Snape. My eyes shortly open wided and so did Hermione. We went to our seat right away. " 5 points from Gryffindor for being last minute or should I say second and you miss (Y/L) stop breathing heavily, you're distracting my students, you wouldn't want me to took out point from my own house so as yours would you" said Snape in his monotone voice.
   I whispered a sorry to the bushy hair girl, but she didn't mind instead she smiled and whispered back with a "no worries". I grinned at her and turned my back to see Harry and Ron looking at me, I bid a "Hi" and smiled at them. All of a sudden they shifted their expression to a soft one and each whispered "hello" and returned a modest smile. I moved my face back toward the Profesor and caught up the lesson.
    Not so long afterwards, I fell a stare behind my back,so I turned around and saw the one and only ,Draco Malfoy. I then rolled my eyes and brushed it aside.
    Potion has come to and end. I immediately gathered my belongings and exited the dungeon, but I was suddenly grabbed by the wrist. I turned around, my fury rising " What in the wizarding world do you think you are doing? Let go of my wrist right now. I demand you!" I said sharply with coldness in my voice. "(Y/N) please hears me out. I'm sorry I really am" said Malfoy. "Let go of my wrist right now you white ferret!" I said sternly but he didn't. "Let go of her now Malfoy! You don't deserve to even be this close to her. You know what you did sure well. Better get out and considered your fault" said Harry cutting us off. " You have no right to get involve in my problem Potter" growled Malfoy. " Oh I'm sure I have more right than you have right now Malfoy. You loses it all yesterday didn't you remember what happened or should I shout it out in front of you? Let go of her wrist! NOW!" said the boy who lived sternly. The platinum blond haired boy slowly let go of her wrist and left the crowd. "Thanks Harry, I'll offer you a butter beer next weekend!" I smiled he returned it back.
     I had Charms next but things went out smoothly since Malfoy didn't join the class. Lunch time had arrived, I didn't want to sit at my house table so I went on to sit with the golden trio. Harry and Ron didn't ask a thing about Malfoy sure enough I was gladly enjoying it because I couldn't bare to talk about it without getting tear up. I felt two arms wrapped around my shoulder and looked up to see the weasley twin "well well, look who's here with us" said Fred
"Isn't she the slytherin's princess eyyy" said George finishing Fred's sentence.
I moved away their arms " don't know where you get that nickname from but that's surely not mine" I smiled cheekily.
" would you look at that cheekily smile of her" said Fred
"She's not grieving" George continued
"Unlike that stupid git" Fred quickly narrowed his eyes at the slytherin boy
"Pleased himself yesterday wasn't he?" Said goerge
"Served him good for what he did"
"He should have gone to bloody hell for what he did to (Y/N)" said Ron
Fred and George looked at each other and had a mischievous smile. I knew damn well what they were planning. It's not that I'm not in pain I am in pain; it's simply that I didn't want to reveal my vulnerable side to them. Even if I dd it only worried them more. I feigned to grin without saying anything, but deep down I'm truly hurting inside.
    I looked up to see Astoria all over Draco, but he didn't have any kind of expressions on his face that we could find I feel a tinge of jealousy in the heart but I rapidly looked away since I don't want to show up my tear in front of people. The look in his eyes demonstrated he was vulnerable, but I didn't think it was enough to him for cheating on me. Feeling guilty of what he did should be normal for him by now because he chose it himself, I didn't make that decision for him I told him myself,  he made it, he made this decision with HER, Astoria Greengrass....
