Falling For The Right One, A Hogwarts Fanfic Love Story

The waiting game.

*Alicias POV*

I walked over to Ominis and filled him in on the meeting.
"Sounds like we have a plan. Slytherin is throwing the last winter break party tonight. We should probably go."
"And watch you get surronded by your entourage? That sounds delightful."
"There wouldn't be one if you accepted to court me.He smirked at me before pulling me in close.
But there is no need to worry these girls could offer me the world and I still would have no interest."
"I haven't been worried I know your feelings for me are unchanged, I just don't like having to fight for your attention."
Ominis kisses my forehead "the courting season will end soon, eventually these girls will go away. Lets head down to lunch, I am rather hungry after getting away from them."

I picked up my cloak and placed my hand in the crook of his elbow.
"Lets be on our way the most eligible bachelor of hogwarts. We wouldn't want you fan girls to wait too long."
Ominis's grin spread across his face as he laughed.
We grabbed our food and headed towards the table that Natsai and Garreth were sitting at.
Sitting down we all began to talk.
I was so greatful for Natsai she was one of the few people who didn't judge me for what I had done.
"Natsai are you going to the party tonight?I figured maybe we could get ready together?"
"I would love that you always help me find the right outfit to wear and it's been awhile since we have gotten to spend time together."
Garreth and Ominis were having their own conversation when the seats across from us were pulled out.
Poppy and Sebastian sat down
"Hey guys she smiled warmly at me. Sebastian and I have decided to move on from our hurt feelings, we have missed hanging out with you all."
I could feel Sebastians gaze on me but I still couldn't get myself to look at him.
"Thats fantastic I am truely sorry though for how it was found out. I'm glad you two have found it in your hearts to forgive us." Ominis replied smiling.
"Can I join you and Natsai in getting ready?"
"Of course I have greatly missed the three of us hanging out."
"It's about time all of you made up, it was getting rather boring for Natsai and I without you all."
We all fell into conversations about the quest and what classes we were looking forward too.
I smiled and leaned into Ominis it was like the start of this year again before I messed it up.
A few girls had tried to interupt our conversation to talk to Ominis but he declined all offers.
Leaving me feeling smug, knowing none of these girls stood a chance.
Slowly we excused ourselves
Sebastian grabbed my arm gently. "Alicia we need to talk I can't keep going on like this with you."
"You should have thought about that before you took advantage of me."
I stepped away shaking a little
Sebastian grabbed my hand and apparated us to our spot.

"Alicia from the bottom of my heart I hate myself for forcing myself on you.
I couldn't control myself , after seeing you the way you were. It angered me in the worst of ways to see the effects Ominis has on you.
The anger overcame any of my good sense, I wanted to make you remember that you belong to me.
That Ominis and you will not last, you don't belong with him.
He will never see the real you like I have.
I know it is one of the reasons you are hesitating to accept his offer of courting you. You know in your deepest parts that we were made for one another anyone in between is just a distraction."
"I will forgive you but Ominis is no distraction my feelings for him are very much real. He has shown me how to properly be loved. Something you have always failed at.
If Ominis and I fall apart it is well down the road in the future."
Sebastian moved closer "I will be waiting for any oppurtunity to have you back at my side where you belong.
He pulled me closer to him the fire he makes you feel will slowly burn out. And I can't wait for that day." He pulled my face to his and claimed my lips. Electrical pulses rushed down my body. His lips were unyeilding molding into mine giving me no time to breathe. He groaned into my mouth as he devored my lips as if they were his last meal.
He pulled away and smirked. "See you at the party Evermore" he apparated leaving me in our old spot.
My chest heaved trying to catch my breath.
Sebastian hadn't been wrong my heart would always belong to him,
But he was wrong in assuming that it didn't also belong to Ominis.
I felt the guilt rise in me as I had kissed Sebastian back.
Even though Ominis and I were not officially courting I knew it would upset him if he found out that I had willingly kissed Sebastian back.
I made my way back to the dorms and grabbed everything I needed for the party. I apparated into the 5th floors prefect bathroom and Poppy and Natsai were already waiting.
"Who's ready to party? As I laid out my outfit and hair supplies I can tell you I think we all deserve to let loose after the last few weeks."
"I couldn't agree more and I am excited to be spending time with both of you, Garreth asked to court me and even though I happily said yes I have missed hanging out with my two favorite witches."
"It is the courting season upon us, thankfully it seems like you don't need to worry about that  but Alicia how are you able to handle all the female attention Ominis has been getting he is rumored to be the most wanted bachelor in Hogwarts, I can't imagine how hard it is for you."

"It's not hard at all to be honest, I know his heart belongs to me. He would not fall for the temptation of any of these girls."

"Thats good to hear I feel as if I'm not ready to court again but it is fun to watch.
Natsai changed into her blood red dress with gold apliques spread out on the bodice her dark skin contrasted beautifully against the red she wore
Poppy had changed into a sapphire blue dress with silver designs sewn into the bodice and the skirt. Making her green eyes shine.
I decided to wear a maroon dress lined with black lace.  Intricate black designs embroidered the bodice. The skirt hugged to my body showing off the few curves I had 
After we messed around with our hair we made our way down into the dungeons
