Game

My alibi

Y/N Y/L/N POV

First day back from winter break. The great hall is packed with students and their suitcases. Red, yellow, blue, and green scarves wrapped around every other's neck, and the place was buzzing.

I sat next to Harry and Ron as we waited for Hermione's arrival.

Not long later, a girl with curly brown hair, a Gryffindor scarf, strolling a large suitcase came running at us.

"Mione!" Ron yelled and rushed to greet her.

They bumped into several people on the way, but the lovely couple made it into each other's arms.

Harry and I followed after.

"Hey Harry, oh, hi Y/n." She greeted me.

"Good to see you're back." I smiled and gave her a hug.

We parted as she hugged Harry as well.

"How are you and Tom? Harry told me he did something horrible to you and then you two were back together." She let out.

"Oh, I got some clarification during our trip and finally, things are over between us," I explained.

"Oh...you deserve much better anyways." She cooed while we started our walk back to the Gryffindor table.

We sat down and Hermione began to tell us about the adventures she and her muggle friends back in the muggle world went through.

I was very intrigued as to how muggles did things.

"So Silvia gets dumped into the snow and she actually gets stuck, so we had to go into the four feet tall snowed area and dig her out," Hermione exclaimed.

"Wait, why did she get dumped into the snow?" Harry asked.

"We were playing truth or dare." She explained.

"Ohh, that makes sense."

"Anyways, Silvia actually did catch a cold and the party was delayed to.." she began to trail off.

"What?" I asked.

Her eyes weren't directly on me, but past me. Ron and Harry both began to look at me, then behind me.

"Mione..who is behind me?" I asked.

I had a suspicion, but I really hoped it wasn't them.

"Mattheo, Astoria, Blaise, Lorenzo, Theodore, and Malfoy," Ron answered.

"You've got to be kidding me." I moved out.

I slowly turned around and faced all of them. I wanted some more free time away from my ex-friends, but I guess that's over.

"Yes?" I asked.

"Why are you with Potter and his minions?" Draco spat.

"Relax..you know, they're actually fun to be around." I defended them.

Draco rolled his eyes. Astoria was looking everywhere but my eyes, that's cute.

"So? How can I help you?" I asked again.

"How about start by sitting with your friends," Draco spoke.

Whatever, I have a cover to keep.

I got up and walked with them to the Slytherin table. Tom was already there, waiting for us.

"This is a joke, right?" I scoffed.

"Just ignore my brother. He won't bother us." Mattheo let out.
