Aftermath | Sebastian Sallow

Chapter 15

Professor Sharp insists on training the ancient magic this Saturday, stating that I need to focus on my studies during the school week. I'm eager to begin, but also grateful to have someone that's urging me to make the right choices for my future. A role that Fig once held. No one would ever be able to take his place. Keep it together, I tell myself. "Try not to get into any trouble", Sharp said to me. At least until this weekend.

Sebastian has been absolutely unable to keep his hands off me. Since we lost our virginity to each other. That was one of the most memorable moments I've ever had in my life. I couldn't have imagined my first time going any more perfectly, and with the perfect person too. He has always been my best friend, and now I'm his. And he's mine.

After we left the Room of Requirement, he was pulling me into secluded corridors and stealing a kiss from me whenever he could in between classes. You would think I slipped this man Amortentia when he wasn't looking.

We snuck off to the Undercroft in the evening the next day and were right in the middle of a hot make out session when we were interrupted by Ominis walking in. I was wearing nothing from the waist up and Sebastian threw my shirt at me to cover up quickly. Although Ominis couldn't exactly see what I was wearing or not, I found his possessiveness pretty hot.

"Well well well. You two sneaking off down here at night, reminds me of the good ole days." He says crossing his arms.

"I would hardly count most of those days as good." I grumble while fumbling to get my shirt back on.

"So does this mean you have finally stopped denying your feelings for each other?" Ominis asks us.

"I think we're pretty past it now. I don't blame y/n, she just couldn't stay away from my irresistible charm." Sebastian smirks, leaning against a pillar. I push him by his shoulder, causing him to lose his balance. "Hey!"

"If I remember correctly, you were the one that couldn't keep your hands off me." I say, raising my eyebrow.

"And if I remember correctly, I made you blast ancient magic around us when I was making you cu-"

"Sebastian!" I could feel the heat burning my cheeks as I snapped my head to Ominis, who had his mouth held open.

"By the gods, Sebastian Sallow. We have much to discuss. And it seems like you have just as much to discuss with Professor Sharp, y/n, interesting. Your magic is reacting to feelings of passion- both bad, and good" he says, smirking at us. He wasn't wrong there. Every time Sebastian's hands were on me, ours lips smashing together and bodies moving in perfect rhythm- I could feel it building up inside of me.

"Yes, we have much to discuss and I'm just thrilled to let him know about my sex life." I say, the frustration creeping into my voice.

"I would really prefer you didn't mention that part." Ominis says.

"Same." Says Sebastian with a serious tone. Ominis laughs, then I laugh, followed by Sebastian. We make our way out of the Undercroft. Sebastian in the middle, hanging both of his arms around our shoulders, annoying Ominis and I both.

It was morning again, Friday. Sebastian and Ominis walked ahead of Imelda and I on our way to the Great Hall for breakfast. Imelda grabbed my arm, rather tightly might I add, slowing down our pace behind the guys.

"So, what's going on with you and Sallow?" I could tell she was trying to be discreet, but this girl couldn't whisper to save her life.

"I don't know what you're talking about." I replied, it's not that we were trying to keep a secret but I wasn't sure of Sebastian's opinion on the matter. On publicly declaring us to the whole student population. We both had a reputation and knowing that, word would travel fast.

"Oh, please. Don't take me for a fool. You two totally hooked up didn't you?" She said in excitement, too much excitement.

"Shh, quiet! Someone will hear you." I said looking around us. Some students, definitely under year 4 were nearby. They did not need to hear any of this, or anyone else for that matter.

"Merlin's beard y/n, I know you like getting into trouble but I didn't think you liked that kind of trouble." She starts into a fit of giggling and it's contagious, causing my cheeks to flush and giggle along with her too.

Sebastian and Ominis turned around, Sebastian raising an eyebrow at us. "What's so funny?" He asks.

"Mind your business, Sallow!" Imelda yells and glares at him. Sebastian raises his hands and they turn around continuing to walk ahead of us. Imelda and I grin at each other.

We walk side by side and finally make it to the Slytherin table. As always, there is already rows and rows of food waiting for the students. Carefully prepared by elves in the kitchen. How they manage to get it all to the Great Hall so quickly, I would never know.

We're enjoying ourselves eating until Imelda turns to me and says, "So, are you going to come out of hiding to party with us all tonight?"

"Party?" Sebastian and I say in unison.

"You two have been so preoccupied with each other the past few days to know what's going on around you." Imelda says nudging me in my side.

"Ow!" I respond, rubbing my side. Sebastian looks at me with a curious expression. I slowly shrug my shoulders as if the conversation between Imelda and I hadn't happened a moment ago.

"The houses are celebrating the beginning of the quidditch season. Before we beat them to a pulp!" I internally cringe at her enthusiasm for the sport.

"And apparently that has to be in our common room." Ominis says with a look of disgust.

"Oh lighten up, Ominis. You know there's security measures in place." Imelda turns to me, "The 7th years are putting enchantments on all the halls leading to dorm rooms. None but Slytherin are allowed to proceed. And they're giving a phrase to the other houses to enter. Only 5th years and up can enter the common room."

"Sounds brilliant." Sebastian says. "I wouldn't mind letting loose with everyone. What kind of party are we talking here exactly?"

"The Gryffindors are apparently getting their hands on fire whiskey and butterbeer, and the Ravenclaws seem to have some concoctions of their own. Should be a wicked time." Imelda says smirking as she takes a sip of her pumpkin juice.

"Count me in." Sebastian says, with a devilish grin at me. "What do you say, y/n?"

"Sounds great." I say, with forced enthusiasm. This definitely sounds like something they've partaken in before. And I never have. So much for not getting into trouble until Saturday.
