~Great Hall~
As Lavender and Parvati huddle over a dozen teacups, Avidly interpreting patterns in hushed voices, Draco, arm bound in a sling, holds court before a clot of Slytherins.
Pansy: "Does it hurt terribly, Draco?"
Draco: (a tad theatrical) "It comes and goes. Still... I consider myself lucky."
Y/n is standing near Tom between the Gryffindor table and Slytherin.
Y/n: "Damn I hoped it woulda been worse."
Tom: "Would've taught you a lesson about respect."
Draco shuts up immediately. Harry, Ron, and Hermione watch from the Gryffindor table.
Ron: "The little git. He's really laying it on thick, isn't he?"
Harry: "At least Hagrid didn't get sacked."
Hermione: "Yes. But I hear Draco's father's furious. I don't think we've heard the end of this..."
Y/n sits near Hermione. Tom sits across from her.
Y/n: "That mother fucking son of a bitch!"
Tom: "What's wrong, love?"
Y/n: "Draco just got me kicked out!"
A ministry owl lands in front of her. Y/n skimming the letter.
Y/n: "Welp. I've got my own mansion now."
Tom: "That was the sword."
Y/n: "Which means what next?"
Tom: "Engagement, wedding; sequence of events."
Y/n: "Oh."
Tom: "The sequence of events will probably be the mansion, you falling in love, and an engagement, ending in marriage."
Y/n: "Oh. Welp, I've gotta set up a meeting for the disappointment club."
Regulus: "What? Did you get kicked out?"
Y/n: "Yep. I should've been a Slytherin."
Regulus: "So, what you aren't a Slytherin. You're twice as brave as Sirius and I. I mean who can bad mouth The Dark Lord to his face."
Tom: "I still don't care. I think it's adorable."
Y/n: "Hmph!"
Tom: "Awe."
Y/n: "Hmph!"
Tom pulls her into a side hug.
~A little farther away~
Dumbledore: "Young love."
Trelawney: "Soulmates."
McGonagall: "What are you two on about?"
Dumbledore: "Y/n Riddle."
Trelawney: "Tom Malfoy."
Flitwick: "Y/n just got disowned for being Gryffindor."
Trelawney: "The sword! The sword happened."
Dumbledore: "I think she's in love with him but won't admit it."
~Back at Gryffindor Table~
Seamus: "He's been sighted!"
They turn. Seamus and the other Gryffindors are huddled over a copy of The Daily Prophet. Ron: "Who?" But the photograph on the Prophet's front page provides a chilling answer: Sirius Black. Hermione reads over the shoulders of others. Whispers half to herself.
