It's almost halloween.
I love halloween, the cold outside, the fog, the pumpkins and the horror movies. It's beautiful.

I woke up today and was really tired. I don't know why, but I couldn't fall asleep last night.
Whatever. I got ready for today. I'm not wearing any make up and put my hair in a messy bun.
Suddenly my door flew open "Good Morning, Alli" Skylar ran in plopped down on my bed. She looked at me "Why didn't you sleep last night?". I laughed "You know me to good. I don't know, I just couldn't sleep" I shrugged "Well, let's go Sky. I'm hungry" with that we left my dorm.

I sat on the Slytherin table silent, everyone was talking around me. I don't know why, but sometimes I have days, when I just want to be alone. Like my social-battery ran out.
I need to be alone. Like right now. I just stood up and left the great hall.

-Dracos POV-
I didn't want to look at her, but I couldn't help myself. Aliyah looked tired today. I would like to know, what kept her awake last night.
"Mate, did you hear what Blaise said?" Theo asked me. The others looked really excited. I looked at Blaise "What did you say?". He drummed his fingers aigainst the table "I'm going to throw a halloween party". Something's finally happening here again.

I looked back at Aliyah, she definitely would be at the party. Suddenly she stood up and left the hall.
I know I shouldn't, but I followed her. Aliyah went down to the forbidden forest, with a book and climbed on a tree and started reading.

I needed to get back, I have class now. I started to get back and just leave her there. Is she going to skip classes? I mean we have potions today.

-Aliyahs POV-
I went to my favorite place in hogwarts. An old tree near the forbidden forest. I found it when I was in second year.
I took a book about astrology with me. I climbed on the tree and started to read.
That's what I needed right now, a break from all those people, I need my space
I'm going to skip Herbology, even tho I like this class, but I need alone time.

I already read half of the book, that's when I remembered, that I have potions with Draco today.
I don't know why, but he is really distant towards me and I don't like it. I mean I hate him...I think, but in someway I miss his stupid jokes. I know it shouldn't bother me, but it does.
The more I thought about it, the more tired I get. My eyes slowly closed and I drifted of to sleep.

-Skylars POV-
Hmm? It's strange Aliyah wasn't in class today and It's already time for dinner. I went to the Slytherin table and went to Draco and Mattheo "Draco? Was Aliyah in potions today?". He looked confused at me "No, why?". Now also Mattheo looked confused at me "Because the last time I saw her was this morning. She wasn't in her classes either". Her brother got up "I'm going to get Tom. we need to find her" with that we all searched for her.

-Dracos POV-
We searched the whole castle and we didn't find her.  Mattheo and Tom are getting anxious, they just want to find Aliyah. It's is cold and it's already dark outside. Outside?... We didn't look outside of the castle. "Oh my god.. mate I think I know where she is! Follow me."

I literally ran down to the forbidden forest, where I followed her in the morning. "I think she is on the old tree" I pointed at it. Tom climes on it.

-Aliyahs POV-
I woke up, because someone embraced me. I shivered. I'm so damn cold right now. "Don't do that again" now I know who's hugging me. "Doing what?" I looked up at Tom. "We couldn't find you, we thought something happened to you" Mattheo said and hugged me too.
They felt so warm around me. I think they noticed that I shivered "Come on. You need to get in your dorm and get some warmer clothes...Oh and Skylar would be also glad seeing you alive" I chuckled while my teeth chattered.

I got into my dorm and Skylar attacked me with a bone-crushing hug. Then she held my shoulders and pushed me back. "Aliyah Victoria Riddle. Don't you ever dare to scare me like that again" She tried to glare at me and I needed to laugh "Pinkie-promise". We locked our pinkies.

I took a bath while Sky sat on the floor next to me and painted her nails. How did they know where I was, I mean not even Skylar knew about this tree. "What are you thinking about, mrs. Riddle?" She looked at me. "How did they know where I was?" She tought for a second "I think it was Draco?...Yeah it was definitely Draco who figured it out". I blushed. What the actual fuck! Why am I blushing?!
I looked at Sky, she just looked away and pretended like she didn't saw anything. She tried to suppress her laughing. "Oh shut up!" I started laughing too and splashed water at her. We stated even more to laugh.

Skylar left and I was laying sleeples in my bed. I turned and turned, but I couldn't find a comfortable position to sleep. I sighed and sat up. I got out of bed and tip-toed to the boy dormitories. I knocked on Mattheos door, he surely was already asleep. That's why I neede to wait a few seconds, till Mattheo opened the door. He sleepily looked at me. "Can I sleepover?" I asked. He got back to his bed and let the door open. I followed him and got under the blanket, I cuddled me onto him. Finally I fell asleep.
