Inevitable

63. Dress Shopping 👗

(Sierras Pov)
It's December 15th. I've been spending most of my time studying with Draco.
The winter dance is in 2 days and I've yet to find a dress.

"I can't wait to go dress shopping today!" Said Pansy.
"Me too! This is the first time I'm getting
a dressy dress." I said.

"So are you guys gonna go suit shopping?" I asked.

"I have enough." Said Draco.
"Same." Said Lorenzo.

"Well I don't have any. Not every ones rich." Said Mattheo.

"That's ok Mattheo you can come with us." I said.

Mattheo doesn't have the same luxuries as the rest.

Draco was the richest.
Then Lorenzo.
Theo and Blaise had money but not enough to be rich.

Draco and Lorenzo were raised in big houses and had never had to lift a finger.

Mattheo on the other hand grew up in a small little cottage and had to sort of fend for himself.

And it made sense. Mattheo was always better at doing work. Sure Draco was strong but he could never actually hurt anyone.

Mattheo knew how to survive with nothing.
He had a strong head and was physically stronger.

I think that's why he makes me feel safer. Maybe it's just the fact I know Mattheo can protect me and won't run under pressure.

"We should go to the stores while it's still early." Said Pansy.

"We're coming too." Said Draco.
"Ya I wanna go, dress shopping seems fun." Said Lorenzo.

We left the common room to go find Theo and Blaise.

Suddenly Neville ran into us.
I've never really spoken to him but I knew he was a little dorky.

"I'm so sorry I'm so sorry." He said.
"Watch where your fucking going Longbottom."
Said Lorenzo.

"Please, please don't hurt me." Said Neville looking at Lorenzo.

I walked over to him and grabbed his arm and he flinched.

"Why we're you running?" I asked.
"My pet toad ran away I was chasing after it."

"I'll help you find it." I said.
"No you won't we're going shopping." Said Pansy pulling me away.

"Go find Theo and Blaise for now." I said.
Everyone sort of glared at me except Mattheo but I was unsure why.

"What?" I said.
They started walking away.
"Im sorry again Lorenzo." Said Neville.

"Why are you so scared of us?" I asked him.

"The Slytherins have never been fond of me." He said.

"Well I'm fond of everyone unless they give me a reason not to be." I said.

"Im Sierra." I said taking out my hand.
He quickly shook it with a weak grip.

"So which way did your toad go?" Neville pointed in front of us.

We started looking around and I watched as he nervously walked.
"Don't be so nervous." I said.

"It's not you I'm worried about, it's Lorenzo."
"Why Lorenzo?" I asked.
"You don't know?" He said.
I shook my head.

"His mom is Bellatrix." He said.
"I know who is mother is but why does it make you nervous." I said.

"His mother tortured my parents into insanity, and they've yet to recover." He said.
