As Mallory ran back up to her room that night she couldn't think straight. How could Draco say that knowing that it would start even more shit? How could she let the second home of hers turn into a shit show?

She just wants it back to normal, where they would go to class and Theodore would flirt with her and she would hang out with the guys in the afternoon laughing and having fun.

"Mal?" Draco's voice chimed through mallorys room as it started to rain. Her window was open as she walked out of the bathroom.

"What Draco?" She asked sitting down at her desk turning to him as the rain pounced on the roof.

"You know I was joking back there?" He joked laughing it off but mallorys face was straight and focused.

"I don't care right now Draco." She groaned as he sat on the bed looking at Mallory.

"Why not?" He asked as she shrugged turning fully around making eye contact with the boy. The rain sprinkled onto her quill that layed on the desk close to the window.

"Because what you said back there- I want it to work out with Theodore but now I don't think it will." Mallory shrugged as lightning struck outside.

"No it will because I will talk to him mal it's fine-"

"No Draco! This is fucking annoying! All I wanted was to go on a date with him and now we are in a huge fight. I just want to be alone right now." Mallory said standing up making him stand up also as he walked to the door.

He walked out as she sat on the floor with her hands wrapped around her legs. Suddenly an owl arrived at the window holding a note. Mallory got up scurrying over to the owl as she carefully took the piece of parchment out of the Beak.

Mallory,

This is your last semester darling. I know that it was unfair to transfer you so late and quickly and unexpectedly. I am sorry dear, you will be going back to your old school.

I hope you forgive me for making so many switches. I just noticed that this is the best possible thing because I know you don't like it there.

Sincerely, mum.

Mallory got up whipping off her tears as she ran to Theodores room. She didn't care, she just wanted to be with him in the time they have left Together.

"Mallory?"

"Theo I want to go on the date, I don't care about the fight. I want- I want to spend as much time with you as I can." Her voice went flat as she held the letter which Theodore noticed.

She handed it to him as he looked over it. "Oh." Was all he could say as she slipped into his dorm.

"I wish It was a more happier mood, I wish you didn't think me and Draco did anything, I wish-"

"Mal, stop." He said bringing her close to him as he cupped her cheeks looking into her eyes. "It's okay, I know you didn't do it. I overreacted and I shouldn't have ." He whispered as the rain pounced on the roof of his dorm.

"It's okay, I'm sorry to." She whispered back as he shook his head closing his eyes.

"You have nothing to be sorry for." He opened them back up as she stared at him for a quick moment before kissing him.

Her worries went away as their lips connected to the rain and thunder outside.

They looked at each other as she smiled "I wish we could do something for our date." She smiled as he laughed.

"You know one thing, dance for me, it brings me joy." He smirked as she laughed.

"I know you love when I dance correct?" She asked as he nodded sitting down.

"Correct." He replied as she ran to her dorm getting her pointe shoes and bringing them back as she laced them up.

Her feet stood on the hardwood floor of his dorm as she stood on her toes dancing around the room, all Theodore could think about in that moment was how much he could love a person so much without them knowing.

And then they get married bla bla lol jk jk but I hope you all enjoyed this short story. I know it was short but I had never done one before and kinda hate it ngl, definitely won't catch me doing this again but it was fun. I hope you all liked it and I will see you in the next one. :)
