This chapter is the end to her last year at Hogwarts and I know it's rushed but there's no major events until after graduation. Also this chapter doesn't talk about Norah, Draco or Enzo and mainly just focuses on Elsie and George. They're all still alive and well but just nothing worth discussing.

Elsie Granger

Winter has gone by quickly, despite how dreadful it is to still be in school. Snape refused to move my seat so I've been stuck next to Draco which is more awkward than you'd think. Whenever I get a question wrong, Draco lets out either a laugh or mumbles under his breath about how I'm an idiot. He even once desperately came up to me in the library looking for help on his writing assignment. I laughed at his request, obviously.

I've definitely been sad about our breakup, but it's given me more time to heal from everything that has happened to me. George and I have also grown closer, but there's nothing between us other than an occasional kiss. Besides, I'm far from ready to be in a relationship right now.

Valentine's day definitely stung though. Norah and Neville had a gift exchange as well as Ginny and Harry and all of the other couples.

Martin and I have been meeting once a week and we received news recently that Mrs. Malfoy is divorcing Mr. Malfoy. It's about time. She and I met at a coffee shop in secret and we talked about various topics. We even went to get a massage in the muggle world.

I don't need a relationship with Draco if I can be best friends with his mom.

My time at Hogwarts has been whizzing by and it feels like just yesterday I was entering for the first time and being sorted into Slytherin. The look on my sister's face that screamed 'How did you get Slytherin?' I felt like the evil sister that some of those fantasy books have.

Ever since we first got to Hogwarts, our relationship hasn't been the same. We both found our friend groups and don't see each other as often as we did when we would play at home together.

My marks have been improving and Professor McGonagall reckons I'll be at the top of the year. Take that Hermione.

Tonight was one of my nights where I visited the wand shop for a bit of chatting and learning before going to the Weasley's flat for some tea and biscuits. George and I talked for a bit before I decided I should get back to Hogwarts.

Our relationship has blossomed, though I wouldn't call it a relationship at all. I've been battling myself whether we ever could be or not.

The year finished smoothly and I was dressed in my cleanest robes and the tie that had the brightest green. Today is graduation. All of the younger students had the choice of going home yesterday or later today if they wanted to watch the ceremony. George and Fred sat in the stands of the quidditch arena as well as Ginny and their parents. He gave me a wave before the start of the ceremony.

There my parents were as well, sitting in their finest attire alongside other parents and siblings of my friends. I sighted nearly everybody's parents sitting beside each other except for Harry and Draco's. Draco's parents were separated, but the divorce was not quite finalized. They sat on separate sides of the arena.

Inside the arena were sets of chairs in square formations along with marks for where each of the teachers were to stand. Music was performed by a young student who only did it for the extra credit that was promised.

We all entered and in an orderly manner, we took our seats alongside those in our houses.

"Good afternoon." McGonagall began, "Over the past few years these young men and women have worked hard academically and proven what it takes to be a good witch or wizard. Today, these wonderful students will transition from students to being on their own."
