Y/N Y/L/N POV

A FEW WEEKS LATER

Astoria and I have made up after she apologized. I also said I was sorry and that I may have overreacted. We hugged in the end and she left.

Honestly, through these weeks, she has been very absent and dry. I even asked Tom about it and he just said maybe it was her time of the month. In fact, the whole friend group was splitting. I only ever hang out with Tom and occasionally Lorenzo and Theodore.

I always favored Astoria and she was my ride or die. Blaise, Draco, and Mattheo have gotten closer and Astoria was always nowhere to be seen. Draco got back together with Lola after Lola begged to get back with him. I heard she was crying and blurting out how she couldn't live without Draco and the times she distanced herself from him were the worst.

Tom had begun to open up more to me and I really think I'm starting to see eye to eye with his way of thinking. Winter break was nearing and Tom and I decided to spend it at Hogwarts. This way, we would have lots of alone time. I blushed just to the thought.

I was in Muggle Art right now. We were painting on canvases when Astoria walked in. I immediately set my brush to the side and followed her to her seat.

"Astoria? Why are you avoiding me?" I asked as she started to set up her things.

"I..Er..haven't." She answered hurriedly.

I studied her movements and Theodore came up to us.

"So who's already packed." He asked.

I turned my head towards him.

"Oh, where are you going?" I questioned.

"Oh, the group is taking a trip to different spots for winter break." He filled in. "Are you not coming? This is a bonding thing."

"Well..Actually yes, Tom and I would love to come. Thanks." I cooed.

"What? No-," Astoria panicked.

We both stared at her for a second before she collected herself and put a smile on her face.

"Right. You should come. But just you." She spoke.

"I don't think Tom would be ok with just me going." I let out.

"She's right," Mattheo spoke from behind us. "Mr. possessive letting his little one go on a trip full of traders without himself is highly unlikely."

"Traders? Really?" I raised my eyebrows.

Mattheo raised both of his hands in surrender for a second before walking away.

"Don't listen to him Y/n. He's acting weird." Theodore spoke.

"I know." I cooed and returned my eyes to Astoria. "Anyways, we'll be all packed by tonight. We can leave whenever."

Astoria just nodded and started to pack her things.

"Where are you going now?" I asked.

"My next class. The class is over in two minutes. You should start packing too." She spoke.

Theodore and I walked back to my seat and I started to clean up.

Soon enough, the class did end and I didn't get to talk to Astoria again before she disappeared once more. There was a 30 minute period between every two classes except when there's lunch. Perfect time for me to convince Tom to let me go.

I walked around the Halls searching for Tom or his followers. I turned a corner and saw Avery. I walked up to him and tapped him on his shoulder.
