On Friday, we were all unwilling audiences of Pansy and Dean's public display of affection during breakfast at the Slytherin table. Due to Draco's incessant scowling because a Gryffindor was at our table, Pansy and Dean decided to sit a few meters aways from us, but we were still not spared by the sight of the two of them feeding each other, giggling, and stealing kisses from one another.

"I might just vomit." Draco fake gagged and looked away from the couple.

"Let's just try to ignore it." Daphne said, averting her eyes just as the rest of us did the same.

"I can't believe Pansy beat me in dating someone." Theo jabbed at his food.

"It's not as if you're the relationship type, mate. You just hit it and go." Blaise chuckled.

Daphne snorted. "That's rich coming from you, Blaise."

"Blaise has actually stopped his antics of flirting and sleeping around since a month ago." Draco said.

"Rubbish." Daphne said skeptically.

"No, it's true." Theo nodded. "He's always with us, and he sleeps in the dorm every night."

"Well, where did Blaise use to sleep?" I asked.

"Blaise just sneaks into our room every morning wearing clothes from the night before. He'd just take a shower and then dress up, go to class, and then repeat it all over again. Every single day since our second year until this year's end of October." Draco explained.

"Everyday, Blaise?" I stared at him with wide eyes. "Every day?!"

"Point is." Blaise waved his hand dismissively, ignoring me. "I am a changed man."

Daphne leaned in to whisper. "Did you catch something?"

"No!" Blaise exclaimed.

"Then what's going on?" Daphne asked. "You're a man-whore!"

Blaise rolled his eyes. "Thanks for holding me in such high-esteem."

Suddenly, it hit me. The things I heard before the Halloween feast came flooding back into my brain, and I was now convinced that Blaise was not trying to get on with other girls because of Daphne. It fits after all. Blaise stopped fooling around a month ago according to Draco, and that was also when I heard Blaise telling Theo and Draco that he'd soon want to date Daphne.

I genuinely wanted to squeal but I bit my lip and held myself back.

"Did you stop messing around because you like someone?" I asked, a small knowing smile playing on my lips. "Like genuinely like them to make you stop messing around?"

Blaise stared at me in surprise. "Um...no?"

"I think you do." I smirked.

Theo, Draco, and Blaise all had their eyes on me. I could tell they were trying to figure out if I knew anything at all.

"That's impossible." Daphne shook her head. "Blaise probably just broke his dick."

"I did not!" Blaise protested loudly. "It's working perfectly fine."

Daphne was now laughing. "My mind cannot grasp any other possible reason for you to stop chasing after girls."

"Fine." Blaise sighed in exasperation. "Y/N's right."

"Liar." Daphne stared at Blaise. "Who is it if it's true then?"

Blaise looked back at Daphne. "You really want to know?"

"If you're telling the truth, then you won't have a problem saying a name." Daphne crossed her arms, challenging Blaise.

Theo, Draco, and I were all watching in bated breaths, stunned by the tension between the two.
