[Better]

3- Third-year begins

 (Yes it's a time skip)

                 "Oh my god, Malfoy we all know you're jealous of Harry will you please stop talking about it now?" I ask annoyed by Malfoys constant need to talk bad about my friends 

"Amor, we all know that you're only saying that because you fancy him," He rolls his eyes 

I mean, he wasn't wrong. I did like Harry, he's wonderful. But Malfoy didn't need to know that yet,

"yeah, whatever." I huff grabbing my things and heading up to Willow and I's dorm. We had done some decorating since our first year, now both beds have fairy lights wrapping around the posts with a giant shag rug between the beds. There are also decorative pillows covering both of our beds, including matching stuffed animals we have. We decided to keep the green and black original colors but the room seemed to be completely transformed, we liked it that way. 

Soon after I left the common room Willow came after me

"Hey," She said when walking into our room

"Hey," I responded plopping onto my bed

"You're doing a lot better with handling Draco now. I noticed you removed yourself from the situation as we talked about." She says 

last year Malfoy and I fought so much that Willow had to give me things I could do to prevent it. I could tell everyone was just getting annoyed with us (as was I)

"anyways, how are you and Harry?" Willow asked

"There is no, 'me and Harry.'" I respond 

"That doesn't mean there won't be," She laughs as I throw a pillow at her 

"I don't think Harry really sees me that way anyways. It's not a big deal though, I like being friends." I pull my homework out of my bag and being working, "What about you? Any crushes"

"Uh, no. Not yet at least. I don't know, no girls in our year really seem like my type I guess," She says

Willow came out to me last year as a lesbian and obviously, I was fine with that because one, she's my best friend, and two, I identify as bi myself so that'd be pretty hypocritical of me if I didn't accept her. 

But I completely understand why she's struggling to find someone she likes because at our age girls either don't know that they're queer yet or arent my or her type.

"Yeah, I get that. You'll find someone soon." I smile at her and she smiles back as I turn back to my homework 

Classes had just barely started and Hermione and I had already begun our weekly study sessions. Last year she finished top in our class, me second, and Malfoy third. One of the other reasons he hates me is because I always seem to be just slightly ahead of him in classes. But I deserved it, I studied hard. 

"Hey Hermione," I wave as I enter the library and see Harry sitting next to Hermione, " and Harry," I add

"Hey Amery," Harry says as I sit across from them

"Amery, Harry will be studying with us for the next few weeks if that's okay. he needs help in a few classes." Hermione says flipping through the textbook in front of her 

"Oh, that's perfectly fine," I smile

As we all study I notice that Harry's worst subject is astronomy, my favorite class. But overall Harry wasn't doing that horrible, I've seen way worse. 

"Okay, what if we were to split up the classes he's struggling with? Like you tutor him in some classes and I'll tutor him in the others." Hermione says to me after we all pack up our things to leave 

"Oh, that works. What classes do you want?" I ask her 

"I'll take Transfiguration, Charms, and Potions and you can take the rest. But He doesn't need tutoring in defense against the dark arts so we'll both only have three classes." 

"Oh, perfect. See you later Hermione," I wave to her as I go down the stairs as she starts up them. 

So, I'll be tutoring Harry in Astronomy, History of magic, and Herbology. This is perfect. I'll spend more one on one time with Harry and hopefully, we'll end up closer. 

A/N I'm trying to build plot but failing horribly. any suggestions?
