The whole group was now at my Villa and loving it. Draco and I were together. I snogged him day one and it went a lot better than Theo. The twins seemed to like Draco a little less now. Ginny and Astoria were new to group, and they were already like two peas in a pod. I was glad they already had friends within their year.

"I think my favorite song for the summer is Sometimes Love just Ain't Enough." Draco said.

"A ballad eh?" I said.

"I like playing the guitar." Draco said with a shrug.

"Trouble in-" George began.

"-Paradise?" Fred ended.

"Where is Blaise?" Draco asked ignoring the twins.

Blaise has opened up to Theo and me but not the rest of the group. They don't even know that he actually lives here as a ward to my parents. They don't know that the black widow is dead. They think he's just visiting same as them. I mean I guess the twins and Ginny know since Molly referenced Theo and Blaise as my parents wards. But they haven't asked, and he hasn't explained.

"You know Blaise. Sometimes he just likes to be alone." I explained.

In reality Blaise was at his therapy appointment with a mind healer.

"So Astroria and Ginny are you both ready for your first year?" I asked the girls genuinely interested but also to deflect the conversation away from Blaise.

"I'm so excited. Not even nervous now that I have friends. Plus, my sister already let me know what to expect like with Peeves." Astoria answered.

"Same but also still nervous. I mean I know all of you know my family struggles. This year is more expensive than usual because of the book list. So I'm feeling the stress my parents are feeling." Ginny admitted.

"Don't worry darling. I'm going to speak with our bank and have them transfer some money into your account. Not enough to be noticed by your parents but enough to certainly help." Michaela said as she popped her head in.

After that my mom popped back out before a Weasley could tell her the help wasn't needed.

"She doesn't need to do that. Anyways, what's this about Peeves?" Ginny asked in an effort to change the subject.

"You mean to tell me you haven't told your sister?!" I asked with a horrified glance at the twins.

"We didn't-" George began.

"Warn ickle Ronnie either." Fred finished with a shrug.

"But this is Ginny. We love Ginny!" Pansy exclaimed.

"Right? The weasel not being warned is fair, but the Weaslette deserves to be warned." Draco said.

"I'll tell you Ginny. There's a pranking poltergeist named Peeves who dumps water on the first years every year while they're waiting to be sorted." Astoria told her new bestie.

"Thank you for the warning Astoria." Ginny said.

We've already done a lot in the week my friends have been here. Today we toured the muggle side of my town and tomorrow we'd do the wizarding side. We had turned my family's living room into a big fort with sleeping bags for all of us. I slept everyday sandwiched between Blaise and Draco, so I wasn't surprised to wake up that way. I don't know when Blaise got back yesterday as we fell asleep with him still MIA. I was glad to wake up next to him though. I gave him a kiss to his cheek before rolling over to Draco and kissing his lips. I got up and snuck out to get the morning routine out of the way. As I quietly crept to my bathroom I was unsurprised to find my two best friends right behind me. I mean my best friends out of the girls. Pansy and Daphne were right behind me sneaking into my bathroom. Pansy plopped on the toilet while Daphne and I began brushing out teeth.
