Ember POV (back before the fight)

"Can you find Draco and Hermione?" Blake asked "we need to go over shit and we need the two biggest nerds with us"

"Sure" I smiled and walked out of the great hall at dinner to go search.  The hall was dark as it usually is at night, but tonight was different, tonight was extra cold and....lonely.

I checked their dorms and the astronomy tower first. When they weren't there the next place I wanted to check was the library. 

I walked into the cold area, the windows were banging against the walls, the lanterns were out,  pages were fluttering on desks about to fly away.  But I walked forward and through the rows.  When I got to the restricted section muffled voices came from the furthest row.

I hesitantly walked forward and turned the corner with much ease, scared for a sudden jump scare.  But when I did I screeched and turned around so fast, completed scarred.

"Oh my god" I heard Hermione's voice, she was leaning back on a table before I turned away. Getting completed rail-

"Hermione darling" Draco spoke "go to dinner, I will be there right away"

I heard footsteps run away while I looked at the VERY interesting books on the shelf, just terrified to turn around.

"Ember, turn around" Draco demanded

I held a sorry look on my face as I turned to a very scared looking Draco

"Well" I muttered and cleared my throat "how long"

"Classified"

"Love?"

"Classified" he said again

"right, you are needed in the great hall" I turned to walk out. 

"Wait" he stopped me and was close enough to whisper "don't tell anyone"

"Of course" I smiled

He brought me into a hug and kissed my cheek, when pulled back he whispered again, but this time, devilish.

"You tell anyone, I tell everyone about the time I caught you and Riddle doing-"

"Nope" I whispered "won't tell anyone, still sorry about that by the way"

He smirked and we were about to walk out when Draco was slammed against the wall..... by no other than Riddle himself.

(Flashback)

Friday

🚨🚨🚨

Ember was walking to her dorm after a long day of classes.  She wasn't exhausted but she felt like everything was against her that day.  Trying to act like a pure blood was always terrible. 

She unlocked her door with her wand and entered.  A figure sat in her chair with only a lamp on beside them.

"Mattheo" Ember smiled "you scared me" She noticed he was more quiet than usual, more calm.

"I finished your book darling" he ignored her last statement and stood up from the chair to grab the book he had placed back on the bookshelf just before "I must say, it was interesting"

He smirked looking up at Ember who stayed in her spot. He slowly strolled over, easily flipping through pages, staying on some that she had tabbed.

"Aren't I an interesting person?" She asked timidly as he circling around her

Mattheo stopped his movements and took her in from behind "that you are, but I would like you to tell me" he paused "what each colour of the tabs mean"
