*Alicias POV*
My face was flushed as I was running back to Gryffindor
I had let Saraphina ruin the small time I had with Seb.
I even had to fake my climax as her words kept spilling into my head.
I could't get the image of her on her knees in front of him, to stop popping up while Sebastian was pleasuring me.
Chastising myself I grabbed my bath items and headed towards the bathroom.
Hopping out of the shower I redressed into my school robes, I still had a few hours to kill before we had to go to the great hall.
Throwing my cloak on I headed towards the boat house. I needed the peace it brought me I needed to get my head on straight.
The cold winds that were racing off the lake penetrated my cloak making me shiver. I sat down letting my feet dangle inches from the water.
My mind was racing taking a desp breath I closed my eyes trying to unclutter all the thoughts whirling around in my head.
So much had happened in the last few days. I hadn't even got the chance to tell Seb about Arrow or the quest I myself was on now.
I peered into the water watching as my relfection rippled across the waves.
How was I supposed to make myself one with the elements.
This task seemed impossible,
sighing I pulled my cloak in closer to me.
As much as I want to control my magic I couldn't help but wish that this school year could have just been a school year.
I wanted the normal problems other students had.
Groaning I knew I was throwing myself a pity party.
Footsteps slowly encrouched on me, turning around I found myself looking at Ominis.
"Fancy seeing you here again, he chuckled at his own joke. I figured you would still be spending time with Sebastian I can come back later."
"No come sit down it's okay I'm just sitting her drowning myself in my thoughts I could use a distraction."
"If you insist he smiles and sits down next to me. What is clouding your mind?"
"Well obviously as you know I have to learn how to be one with all the elements, I am wondering if Arrow mean in the literal way."
" I have a feeling that you will not have to jump in this lake or set yourself on fire to achieve the quest he gave you but I am always up to putting a fire out if needed if you want to try that way. But I have a notion that you have much more weighing on your mind than that."
Ominis somehow had always been able to read me like an open book, even though he could not see the emotions that I carried on my face.
I hesitated, I wanted to ask him about what Saraphina said, but I didn't want anyone to know how insecure she had made me feel.
"I feel as though Seb is hiding something from me again,
We didn't really talk at all when we met up. It was like he was avoiding talking to me. I thought the secrets we done between him and I.
Guilt flashed over his face and my stomach twisted in knots, why would Ominis feel guilty about what I had just said.
Are you keeping secrets from me to Ominis?
Shame quickly crossed over his face. What is it Ominis what knowledge are the two of you keeping from me?" I could feel the anger rise within me after everything they were still keeping me in the dark.
"Please understand that I didn't want to tell you I was afraid to hurt you more than you already have been since Seb started on his quest, I figured that since he didn't break his promise that you didn't need to know."
"He hooked up with her didn't he, you can tell me as that is no secret. Saraphina already had the honors of exposing what happened between the both of them. I have been trying to convince myself really that she was just trying to get under my skin."
Ominis grimanced, "yes I walked in on them in the common room in the slytherin dorm. However he had not touched her, Saraphina had woken him up by pleasuring him with her mouth. But he did not stop her. That is why we were at odds for so long."
In order to make ameands he made me promise not to tell you. I am so sorry I should have just told you, it couldn't have been easy for the person you dislike the most to be the one person who was honest to you."
He hung his head down in shame.
I could feel the tears begin to collect in the corner of my eyes. I was so angry and hurt the people who meant the most to me had kept secrets from me.
I quickly got up
"I don't know what to say to you at this moment, I trusted you Ominis I don't know if I even know you, the fact that you could keep this from me makes me doubt everything about our friendship. As I could never keep a secret like this from you."I spat out full of anger I got up and walked away.
I wanted to confront Sebastian as well his lies not only destroyed what was between us but my friendship with Ominis as well.
I ran to the owelry and sent Sebastian a note
We need to talk I know everything, don't worry Ominis kept your secret safe but someone else didn't.
Sealing the letter I made my way back up to our spot.
Opening the old creaky door I stepped in.
My feelings fluxuated from anger to sadness.
I could have forgiven him for this, it's not like he had planned for her to take advantage of him.
But I don't know if I could forgive that he did not tell me. It made it seem like he enjoyed it so much that he didn't want to come clean.
A sharp knock hit the door, my stomach twisted, no one knew of our spot and Seb never knocked before he came in. Opening the door a brown owl sat in front of the door leaving a letter on the doorstep.
I can't get away from her to come see you,
I want to be at your feet begging for forgiveness I knew I was wrong and I should have told you.
The moment I got a chance I was just so scared, I don't want to lose you. My fear and my own selfish wants overcame me and I swore Ominis into secrecy.
Please don't be to hard on him, if anyone has your well being in mind at all times it is him.
He was so torn he wanted to tell you but I threatened the friendship between him and I if he ever told you what I had done.
I will not cast any blame towards him. This was completely all my fault my actions or lack there of for the pain you must be going through.
If you need time I will give it but please don't give up on us. I will do anything in my power to make this up to you. Even if it means giving up on the quest we have set ourselves on.
You mean more to me than anyone else in this world and I hate myself for the damage I have caused.
With all of my love,
Sebastian
The tears that I had been holding back spilled down my face and dripped down onto the paper.
I had still been in denial that he had betrayed me in this way. The letter ripped me back into reality, the pain ravaged my heart shredding it into hundreds of pieces.
Knowing that she took advantage was one thing but realising he enjoyed it so much that he didn't make her stop opened new wounds inside of me.
How was I supposed to recover from this.
How would I ever be able to look at him without seeing Saraphinas mouth wrapped around his member.
Wiping the tears back I pushed the rest back. As much as I wanted to skip out on meeting the students from the other schools I didn't want to hide out in the place that held so many memories of Seb and I.
Casting a spell to clean my face of the dried tears, I stepped out and walked down the stairs making my way into the Astronomy tower.
I numbed myself to the pain I wouldn't be able to hide how broken I was if I didn't.
I soon heard the hum of voices words of excitement as people ran down to the great hall, the schools should be arriving at any minute.
I quickly scanned the room and found Natsai and Poppy sitting together Headmaster Black had done away with us sitting in our houses while the tournament was ongoing.
I noticed Sebastian and Ominis were not in attendence.
I went over and grabbed the seat next to Natsai just in time as the great hall doors opened as the visiting schools were announced.
The Beauxbotons students we clad in silver attire, they way they walked was so gracefully that they would put any ballerina or royal to shame.
Their headmaster wore a stunning silver dress adorned with gold trim that shined in the light.
As they made their way to their seats the hum of voices stirred up.
The second school was announced,The Durmstrang students were clad in black and marched in as if they were soldiers. Their faces showing no emotions they gave off an intimidating vibe.
Their headmaster wore a simple black coat his hair was cut short and his face was unreadable.
The headmasters came together and offered their thanks and appreciation to one another.
Headmaster black casted sonorus on himself
"Students I know you are all feeling the excitment of the days that lay ahead of us.
But I am here to inform you on how these next few days will work. We will have two days of dueling if you lose a duel you are out of the the tournament. Only the winners will advance to the second day. On the the third day there will be one last duel and than we will end these celebrations with a ball.
