I spill the tea to Pansy and Daphne. They decide to try to cheer me up so we go to hogsmead for the evening.

First we go shopping. The yule ball is at the end of the year so there are a few dresses we keep in mind.

Then we go for lunch at Brews and Stews. We chat and talk about everything and anything.

We go back to our dorms seeing as when we get back it's nearly time to go to sleep.

My dorm has an extra bed as my original roomate transferred to another school. Usually Mattheo comes and sleeps there but I don't think that will happen tonight.

I lie awake all night not able to sleep,staring at the ceiling.

A few hours of lying bored I see my door open and I quickly sit up.

"Woah that was suspicious. Are you doing drugs in here or something." A familiar voice echoes through my room. It's Mattheos.

"I came over to say I'm sorry." He apologises then climbs into my bed with me and hugs me.

"Can you not sleep either?" I ask him and he shakes his head smiling.

"How about we just talk for a while." He offers.

"I'd like that." I smile looking over

We talk for hours about anything that comes into our minds I'm nearly asleep amd don't even realise when I ask.

"Your dad's coming back soon,isn't he?" I feel him take a big breath,my head on his chest.

"Yeah. It won't be for at least another year though." He answers. "He still needs a way to actually come back

"Who are you going to fight with?" I ask not wanting to hear the answer.

"My dad. Or you. Or...I don't know." He frustrates.

"If if does come to it go with them." I insist

"What." I adjust my position so I can look him in the eyes.

"If you fight with us your dad will never forgive you. But if you go with them,we'll always be here waiting for you to come back. I promise." He looks unsure.

"But if I promise you that,you have to promise me something." I add.

"Anything." He whispers.

"Whatever you do choose,make sure it's not because you feel like you have to and it's because you want to." I hold up my pinky and he joins his onto it.

"I promise." I lie back down on his chest drifting into a peaceful night sleep.
