"Black." I hear someone call out to me, tapping my shoulder. "Black." I hear more clearly now once I wake up. I slowly open my eyes and see Pansy standing over me, "Why the hell are you in bed with Theodore?" She whispers to me. I slowly lift my head off Theodore's chest, he was still passed out. "Mattheo didn't show up last night." I tell her, rubbing my eyes. "What?" She whisper yells at me, looking at me shocked. I sit up as slowly as I can, trying to not wake up Theodore. Pansy lifts his arm up and I climb out from under him. I wave my hand for her to follow me and walk out to the common room, I sit on the couch and bring my knees to my chest. "He never showed up Pans." I tell her, playing with my hair. "I sat there and waited for him for two hours and he never showed up." I continue on. "So I went to his room to see if he was there, he wasn't. I asked the boys if they knew anything and they didn't. So I went to my room to go to bed and Theodore came down and stayed with me." I tell her, turning my attention to the rain hitting the large windows in our common room. "Y/N why didn't you come get me?" Pansy ask me. "I didn't wanna bother you, I was too embarrassed anyways." I tell her, feeling my eyes water up and I quickly wipe my face. "It's not like it was anything serious, I don't know why I'm so upset over this." I say to her, a few more tears falling down my face. "You can always come and get me, no matter what. No matter what I will always put you first, please you should never feel embarrassed around me." She tells me, pulling me into a hug. She had her arms wrapped around my shoulder and I lay my head on her shoulders. "Next time I see him I'm kicking Riddles ass." She tells me, I can't help and chuckle. "Get in line." I smile, the two of us sitting together and staring at the fire going in the fireplace.

Not long after talking with Pansy I walk back to my dorm room to see Theodore still asleep in my bed. I sit on the edge of my bed and shake his shoulders, "You are the heaviest sleeper I know." I tease him, after I finally realize he's woken up. "You can't forget you have Quidditch practice soon." I tell him, he sits up against my headboard and rubs his eyes. "But it's so nice and cozy in here, I just wanna stay here." He smiles at me. "You are welcome to come back whenever but you know Draco will flip out if you don't show up." I tell him, smiling back at him. I grab his hands and pull him up to his feet. "Thank you again for last night." I tell him, pulling my hands away and fixing his bedhead. "I'll always be here for you." He tells me, kissing the top of my head. "I'll see you after practice then, maybe we can all go out to get dinner afterwards." He calls out to me while he walks out my dorm room.

Pansy and I walk back into our dorm room and see a note left on both our beds.
'Since we have the school week off, my mother has opened up the Manor to everyone to come stay and get away from school for a bit. The boys and I are gonna go there straight after practice, you are welcomed to come join whenever you and Pansy want too. -Draco'
I don't even hesitate and start to pack a bag, "You read my mind." Pansy chuckles, starting to pack her bag as well.

Shortly after we arrive at the Malfoy Manor, "I hope Riddle doesn't show his face." I tell her, the front doors open as one of the house elves pushed open the door. We walk into the very quiet house, we can barley hear people talking. We walk towards the dinning room, where the voice are heard. A house elf steps in front of us and stops us, "They will be out shortly. You can wait for them in the kitchen or the living room." He tells us both, we're about to walk away when the door opens. Narcissa slips out and looks at us both startled, "Girls your here early." She says, looking at us like she saw a ghost. "Draco said we could come whenever, so we came after we saw the note." I tell her, looking behind her at the door then at Narcissa. "Who's here Narcissa?" A voice calls out to her, "Run along, the boys will be out shortly." She tells us, opening the door again. "Just friends of the boys from school, just sending them on their way." I can hear her tell whoever that is in a very shaky voice. "Come on." Pansy tells me, pulling me away. I wanted to know what was going on behind that door. We walk down the hall and into the living room, "Thank goodness, I was dying of boredom." Alice says, jumping up from her seat on the couch. Her smile instantly fades when she sees the two of us, a horrified look on her face. "My day just got a whole lot better." I chuckle, dropping my bag on the couch, glaring at her the whole time. "We'll your not any of the boys." She comments, crossing her arms over her chest. "Wow, there is a brain in that head after all." I sarcastically comment, not breaking my glare at her. "Excuse me?" She shouts at me, "Excuse me?" I imitate her, taking a step closer to her. Pansy grabs my arm and pulls me back, "Let's just go upstairs." She tells me, forcing me to walk away and pushes my bag into my chest. "The bitch fucking started it." I protest with Pansy and she continues to push me up the stairs, "I'm not dealing with this today. You have a lot of built of anger, I'm actually saving her from you." She tells me, the two of us walk down the hall and into Draco's room. "I'm angry for a very good reason." I tell her, setting my bags down and laying down on his bed. "You do have every right to be mad but I don't think fighting Alice is the right way to go about it. If Mattheo shows up, let him have it." She tells me, looking through Draco's records.

"Why am I not surprised you two are in my room?" Draco ask, sitting down on the bed next to me. "We were told to run along while you guys were doing whatever you were doing." I say, watching the rest of the guys walk in. To my surprise I watch a bloody Tom and Mattheo walk in. Tom held a towel to his busted lip, "What the hell happened to you two?" I ask them shocked, blood now stained Mattheo's white button up shirt. He had a cut along cheek and a busted lip as well. Tom had a busted lip and a black eye forming on his left eye, the boys all exchange looks with one another. No one saying a word. I look at Pansy and she looks horrified seeing the two of them bloody. "We're fine." Tom comments, walking past me and into Draco's bathroom. "Clearly your not fine." I say, walking in after him. I grab a towel and run it under cold water, "Take a seat.... Both of you." I call out, glancing at Mattheo. He slowly walks in and leans against the counter. Tom sits on the edge of the bathtub, he pulls the towel away from his lip and looks up at me. "Wanna tell me the real reason the two of you are bloody right now?" I ask them, wiping the blood off Toms lip. "Got into a fight, that's all." Tom tells me, not looking away from me while I cleaned him up. "Oh really with who?" I question him, determined to get more answers from him. "She won't stop you know." Theodore calls out to them, leaning against the bathroom door frame. "He's right, I can get him or Enzo to confess anything to me. Draco can't keep a secret to save his life." I say, making sure to say the Draco part loudly. "How dare you." He shouts at me, poking his head into the bathroom. "Am I wrong?" I question him, stepping back from Tom once I get all the blood off of him. "You literally come running to tell us anything new." Theodore argues with Draco. I grab a clean towel and run it under the cold water now. I look up at Mattheo who was already staring at me. I hand him the towel, I step back from him and walk out the bathroom. I glance at Pansy who watched the whole thing, "I don't owe him anything." I mumble to Pansy, looking through Draco's records with her. "I never said you did." She comments, both of us turning our attention back to the records.
