Before we know it, it's lunch time, and we're making our way to the great hall.

I'm sitting next to Draco to my left, but an empty spot to my right.

That spot isn't empty for long.

Blaise scurries up to Draco and I, with a expression that I can only define as quite possibly the happiest look i've ever seen. It's the kind of look on a child's face on the morning of Christmas.

He sits down, waiting for me to ask why he's this happy.

I take a sip from my straw and Draco smiles all cute.

"What?"

"You're so adorable the way you lower your head to the cup on the table instead bringing the cup to your mouth."

I shake my head. "What's got you so cheerful Blaise?"

He sighs, "I'm in love."

Draco scoots up against my back, "With who?"

"Her name is Teila." Blaise says, then leans in closer to Draco, "Don't get mad at me man. She's a Hufflepuff." he whispers.

"C'mon Blaise, seriously." Draco says, probably louder than necessary.

I slap him in the arm, "Don't hate Hufflepuffs. You hated me and look where we ended up."

Draco shrugs.

Blaise still can't wipe that smile off his face.

"She loves me too." he mumbles.

I'm really excited for Blaise. He needs a relationship. I always thought he would make a perfect boyfriend.

"Blaise that's so awesome. I'm so happy for you."

I hold my arms out for him to give me a hug, which he happily accepts.

I can hear Draco huff behind me.

"What's the matter, Draco?" I ask without turned around to face him.

"Can I have a hug...?" he asks so quietly, it's almost a mumble.

I laugh, "Sure."

He wraps his arms around my shoulders from behind, and I hold his arms as a way of hugging back.

"Happy now?"

He nods.

"When can I meet her, Blaise?" I ask eagerly.

He laughs nervously, "I'm taking her to the astronomy tower tonight. Maybe you two can join us?"

It's like I can feel Draco's smirk from behind me.

"Have you fucked her yet?" Draco asks casually.

"Draco!" I raise my voice.

He shrugs, "What? I'm just curious."

I shake my head, "We'll be there." I smile.

I think the whole day about tonight.

I will admit I'm a little too excited about meeting Blaise's girlfriend.

She'll be great.

Draco and I definitely don't go out at night as much, considering our situation with Voldemort.

It's been a while and I think this will be fun. But three Slytherins and a Hufflepuff? Maybe a little awkward. But other than that... fun.

So when the time comes, i'm nothing but prepared.
