*the next morning*

I woke up surrounded by my friends. We must have all fell asleep. I kiss Theo's cheek and move his hair out of his face. He looks adorable when he's sleeping. I hear someone mumbling. I look around and see Draco in his bed, tossing and turning. I quietly get up, moving Theo's arms. I walk over to Draco's bed and shake him slightly. He jerks awake, breathing deeply.

"Hey, you ok?" I sit on the edge of his bed.
"I'm fine."
"Bad dream?"
"Yeah..." he runs his fingers through his white hair.
"Wanna talk about it?" I ask.
"No. I'm fine."
"Alright," I reply.

I see Theo turn over and then he sits up. He rubs his eyes.
"Good morning, sleepyhead," I smile at him.
He gets up and walks over to Draco's bed, yawning. He sits next to me and lays his head in my lap. I play with his fluffy, brown hair. He smiles at me and I smile back.

"What y'all wanna do today?" Draco asks.
"I don't know. The party is tonight," I say.
"Oh, yeah," Draco realizes. I look out the window. The sun was shining, the sky was clear.
"It's a beautiful day out. We should go hang outside today," I suggest.
"It's too earlyyyyy," Theo yawns.
"Go to sleep, baby," I kiss his forehead. He slowly starts to fall asleep on me. He snores softly and I smile at him.
My stomach growls.

"Wanna go get breakfast?" Draco asks.
"I'm starving, but I don't wanna leave him here," I look down at Theo.
"He's a big boy. He'll live."
"Love," I whisper and shake him a little.
"Hm?"
"I'm going get breakfast, I'll be back in a bit," I kiss his forehead and lay his head on a pillow on Draco's bed.

Draco and I walk to the Great Hall. He seems bothered by something. I want to ask, but I don't. We arrive into the Hall and sit down. He doesn't eat anything.

"Why aren't you eating?" I finally ask.
"Not hungry."
"What's wrong, Blondie?" I put my fork down.
"Nothing..."
"You can tell me," I assure him.
"It's just... I had a dream about my dad. He was working for Voldemort again," he whispers.
"Oh," I reply, "It was just a dream, Draco."
"Yeah."

We finish eating and I grab some bacon for Theo. We walk back to the dungeons and go back to the dormitory. Pansy and Blaise are awake. We tell them good morning and I sit next to Theo. I nudge him awake.

"Look what I got," I show him the bacon and he sits up.
"Merlin, you're the best," he smiles and kisses my cheek. He starts eating and I go talk to Pansy. We start talking about the party tonight.

When everyone is awake, we decide to go outside. Pansy and I walk back to our dormitory and change our clothes. We meet the others in the common room and head to the courtyard. We sit down and start talking.

"Blaise, I heard you're going to kick this party off," I say.
"Oh, yeah. It's going to be bloody awesome," he replies.

Harry Potter and his lot pass by. Draco starts taunting him. I never really understood why Draco hated him so much. Harry did reject his friendship offer in our first year, but that was three years ago. Surely, there's something more to it than that. After a few hours, we decide to go back to the common room to set up for the party.

I was in charge of setting up the lights.
"Wingardium Leviosa," I say while flicking my wand. The lights start floating up to the ceiling and I place them around the entire room. The boys were helping Blaise set up the speakers. After I finish setting up the lights, I go and help Pansy set up the table with snacks and drinks.

"Done!" Pansy exclaims.
"Come on, let's go get ready."
We walk to our dorm and start getting ready for the party.
