3 A.M. (Oliver Wood) *ON HOLD*

Chapter Twelve: Sixth Year

Gretchen and Regina didn't return for a few days, but when they did, their glares were set on Celeste. They didn't know how she found out about what they said, but they had believed Mattheo was still their friend and that he wouldn't tell her anything. Celeste chose to ignore the girls, even though she knew ignoring them could easily set them off.

Celeste laid on her bed, listening to Gretchen and Regina talk to each other. She really didn't care for what they had to say, since they were simply complaining about being caught. Well, she didn't care until she started hearing names that shouldn't have been brought up.

"I swear to you, Gina, Celeste and Wood are definitely shagging. I heard from Desera that she seen the two talking in Transfiguration." Gretchen said, causing her friend to shrug.

"It's class though, and Professor Mcgonagall set up new seating arrangements. She might've been forced to talk to him. I mean, I'm not defending her, I just figured that we shouldn't judge too quickly just yet." Regina replied, and Gretchen nodded.

"Yeah, she'll probably use that as an excuse. We can definitely find some more proof soon. I bet if I get Matty to watch her, we'll have our answers soon." Gretchen commented, causing Regina to laugh.

"Oh, I can't wait for the look on her face when she finally realizes that she's definitely in trouble. Mr. Malfoy will have her head in no time. Then we can make Draco seem like he knew and he was friends with Wood as well." Regina added, and Gretchen nodded in agreement.

Instead of saying anything, Celeste simply waited for the girls to start talking about some Hufflepuff girl they hated, before she stood up from her bed and left the dorm room. She quickly ran off to find Mattheo. When she didn't find Mattheo, she went to find Draco. As soon as she found Draco, she grabbed his shoulders and pulled him off to the side.

"What?" He asked, seeing the look on her face.

"Gretchen and Regina are trying to turn Uncle Lucius against us, Draco. We have to find Mattheo." Celeste stated, and Draco quickly nodded.

Draco ran up to the boys' dorms and went to search for Mattheo. Once he found Mattheo, he dragged the half asleep boy down the stairs.

"What do you need? What's so important that you had to wake me up from my after lunch nap?" He asked, his voice rough from his sleepy state.

"We need you to keep an eye on Gretchen and Regina. Have your friends watch them if you must. They're trying to turn our aunt and uncle against us, Matt. They're trying to turn you against us. If they get their way, you don't even know half of what will happen to Draco and I. I can't let that happen; Draco's too young to be hurt like I've been. It'll probably be worse than even I've been hurt." Celeste rambled, causing Mattheo to sigh and nod.

"I'll let them know, and I'll tell them to continue to pretend to be friends with the girls. I don't need any suspicions raised, not yet, not on us anyway," He replied, and she nodded. "If they try anything, you will have to inform your uncle. If you don't, it could cause problems for you and Draco; maybe even ones you're trying to avoid right now." He added, running his fingers through his hair.

"I'll make sure to tell my father, Mattheo, but we can't tell him anything until we know there's definitely something going on." Draco said, and Mattheo nodded in agreement.

The three dispersed from their small group, trying to keep from raising any suspicions. Draco ran off to tell his most trusted friends to watch the girls, and Mattheo went off to tell his own friends. Celeste knew she couldn't tell Oliver directly, so she went to the owlery to send him a letter.

'Dear Oliver,

Gretchen and Regina are trying to turn my uncle and aunt against Draco and I. They're going to try and prove that you and I have been speaking outside of class, and if they happen to find a way to make up some proof, they're going to tell my uncle that Draco knew the entire time, and that he's your friend as well.

The girls are trying to use Mattheo as a spy, but obviously Mattheo is on my side. He doesn't know I have ever spoken to you outside of class, and it needs to stay that way. If I'm honest, I don't think Draco knows either, but if he did or does eventually know, I know he can keep a secret. If Mattheo found out, he would turn against me, and I would really be hurt, possibly worse by my family.

Mattheo and his friends are going to spy on the girls. Draco has informed a couple of his friends as well to watch the girls, but they're all playing the part of being the girls' friends, at least for now. With that being said, I think it'd be best if our conversation stops. I can't get caught, and it's not because of me, it's because I want to protect Draco.

I guess we can keep updated on the situation while in class. Please let your friends know to be careful what they say, and watch for the girls, they may try to spy on your friends. Maybe your friends can help us stop the girls for good. I'm sorry it all had to end this way. You were a nice guy, Oliver, truly.

- C. M. B.'

Celeste quickly sent the owl, hoping Oliver would recieve the letter before anything could really happen. She hoped nobody thought she was suspicious for going to the owlery, but she could always lie and say she was sending an owl to her aunt or uncle. Everything could be cleared up or lied about, as long as Draco wasn't hurt because of her...
