"You would think boys wouldn't be this ignorant." Chastity glances to Hermione with a pout.

"You'd be surprised." The girls continue on their trek, turning their noses up as they pass Harry and Ron, who are still reeling from the revelation of Draco and Chastity's relationship.

"Have you spoken to Draco?" Chastity shakes her head with a sigh.

"No, do you think I've done something wrong?" Hermione gasps scandalized.

"Goodness, no! All you did was react to what those to bloody idiots said. Chastity, he's just being dense." The young goddess clutches her books tighter to her chest.

"I hope you're right."

"I always am, aren't I?"

Chastity almost scoffs, she can't tell if Hermione was being sarcastic or not.

"Hanging out with Snakes again, are we, Hermione?" Ginny approaches from across the hall, having been leaning against the wall with a group of friends.

"What about me, Weasley?" The ravenette steps towards the red head. "I'm too, evil for you?" Her eyes begin to flicker to black, not that the terrified red haired girl notices.

"You shouldn't even be close to us. Let alone Harry." Chastity growls.

"And who are you to tell me who I can and can't associate with?" Ginny, finding a burst of false confidence, steps closer to the older girl with a smirk.

"The girl who will expose you for the fake bitch you are." Chastity's hand shoots forward and seizes the younger girl by the throat. Just as she's about to squeeze, she's forcefully ripped away and wrapped in a hug.

The frustrated and angry Chastity tries to push away, growling at the youngest Weasley kid.

"Back off Weasley, before I finish you off for her." Chastity pauses and breathes in; finding Draco's familiar scent enveloping her.

Ginny sneers, looking an awful lot like a certain pug faced slytherin before stomping off.

Hermione stepped back and away when Ginny decided to face off with the young god.

Now only Draco and Chastity remain in the hallway, and Chas has yet to reciprocate the hug. Draco's grip loosens and his arms begin to fall away. Thinking quickly, Chastity wraps her arms tightly around the Slytherin prince and squeezes like she hadn't seen him in years.

The boy grunts at the force but replaces his arms. "What did I do wrong, Draco?"

He frowns, pushing Chastity back and holding her by the shoulders.

"Absolutely nothing darling. Potter got in my head and convinced me I wasn't worthy of you." He growls.

"Babe, you are worthy of me." Chastity retorts. "He's just jealous. Of what I have no idea, but he'll just have to get over it." Draco smirks and pulls his girlfriend back in closer.

Without another word, the couple links arms and heads back towards the Slytherin common room. The room is quiet, the only sound being the crackling of the fire. Draco pulls her toward the luxury green couch, and wraps Chastity and himself in one of the fluffy throws that are supplied by the school.

"Never think you did something wrong Chastity, you don't. You can do no wrong to me." Chastity looks over at Draco from where she's lounged on the other side of the couch, her feet propped on his lap.

"Yeah, don't say that. Eventually you will change your mind." Draco frowns and scoffs at his girlfriend.

"If that ever happens I will willingly kiss a dementor." Chastity smirks.

"I would pay to see someone do that. Specifically this one purple alien guy." The blonde beside her raises an eyebrow but makes no comment. The two remain in silence until they rationally decide to tuck in for bed.

"I guess we have to get up in the morning, don't we?" Draco snorts.

"Yes, love. We do."

She groans, rolling forward off the couch and onto her feet. She reaches her arms high up above her head and squeaks when her back pops. She blindly reaches a hand toward Draco, who accepts it and uses it to pull himself up.

"I will see you tomorrow, love." They share a small peck and move apart. Chastity continuously glances back at her boyfriend with a satisfied smile.

Once she reaches her room, she finds that Fleur is already slumbering away in her bed. She sighs contentedly before changing, and following suit. It isn't long before she is also taken into sleep and greeted with pleasant dreams of home.

The next day is rather uneventful, Draco was already up and out of the common room by the time Chastity and Fleur were ready for the day, and even once they arrived at the great hall, the two girls sat again with Joseph and Luna at the Ravenclaw table.

They laugh and jest about Joseph's failed attempt at an impression of Professor McGonagall and dig in to their breakfast of sausage links and scrambled eggs.

There was the time around mid afternoon that Chastity was full force shoved into Cedric Diggory while they were walking down the hallway. Had he not been so nice about it, Chastity might have murdered Pansy right there in front of Filch and Flint.

But other than that she might have chalked up her day to being boring. That was until she got a message on her Stark watch from her mother.

'Steve's war buddy, Bucky Barnes, is alive.' She furrows her brows as she goes to dig into her supper. Draco, who sits next to her with an arm wrapped around her waist, takes no notice of her expression. Instead he converses joyously with Blaise.

'So what? He found his old buddy and is super happy about it? Tell him congrats for me.'

Her mother only responds with a picture. It's surprisingly clear for its quality. She allows the image to be projected onto and open spot on the table in front of her and raises an eyebrow. That is not the hundred year old man she expected. Wow.

"Who is that?" Pansy, being uncharacteristically not terrible, leans across the table and gawks at the man on display.

'Apparently he's been brainwashed by this whole time and he's the Winter Soldier I was telling you about.'

"An assassin, apparently." Pansy recoils slightly in fear.

"And why do you have a picture of him?"

"He is after my mom." Chastity shrugs nonchalantly. "And my super soldier uncle. And probably my other eccentric uncle. Maybe even uncle Nick." Chas lets out a gasp. "Oh my god what if he goes after Uncle Bruce?! Oh wait never mind he's missing."

Pansy blinks owlishly at the girl before scoffing. "You really expect me to believe that?"

"Believe what you want, pugface." Draco snorts and chokes on his pumpkin juice. Concerned, Chas turns towards him and gently pats his back, knowing force would only make it worse.

"All you need to know is, he'd kill you and forget you in 15 seconds flat."
