          Keeley's mouth fell open slightly. They pressed on the caption in the corner of the picture and tried to wipe it away, seeing if it was just now printed or if it was written on. But it stayed strong. As if that wasn't proof enough, the picture was crinkled all over and faded from age. And Keeley felt like absolute shit.

         "You were telling the truth.." They couldn't bear to meet Draco's eyes. "You really thought I would do that to you? I know we've only really been friends for a few months but I've known you for years, Keeley."

        And that was enough for Keeley. Tears started dripping from the corners of her eyes as they slowly realized more and more the lies that they had believed. 

          Draco looked shocked and looked around in slight discomfort. He didn't really know what to do when people started crying, which was a slight disadvantage to being friends with Pansy, because as tough as she seemed, she cried a lot.

          "Keeley," he sighed, "look at me, please." They looked up and met the silver eyes looking back at her. "Why would you think I cheated on you? You couldn't have just casually come up with this." He paused for a moment. "Wait. Pansy didn't..?" "NO," Keeley said through her tears. "No."

       "Okay, I didn't think so, but I know she wasn't very happy with us being together at first," Draco replied. "Yeah... but no. She wouldn't. She didn't." And then the last piece of this screwed up puzzle connected in Keeley's mind. "Lita."

                                                       *****

      "𝙇𝙄𝙏𝘼!!!" Keeley smashed her way across the hall to the 7th year dorm rooms. Draco followed after her, a mix of terror and confusion in his eyes and thoughts. "Keeley, what did Lita do?!" he shouted, but they ignored him.

          When Keeley got to the front of the 7th year dorms, they turned abruptly around. "Which one is her dorm." It wasn't a question. It was a demand. That Draco very quickly complied with. He pointed to the third door down. Keeley stomped over and, very main character-like, flung it open so hard it bounced off the wall and almost sent Draco into orbit.

      The black haired devil was seated on her bed reading a history book; a sheet of parchment with a few hundred words scribbled on it was next to her. "Keeley??" Her face dropped when she saw Draco standing with the angry blonde. "YOU'RE HIS COUSIN?! FOR REAL?!" they screamed. Draco looked absolutely bewildered. Lita stuttered, not prepared at all for this onslaught of confrontation.

         "I. Well. Um." "Lita, what did you tell her?" Draco asked. Keeley stared daggers. "Okay, yeah, I told her I was your girlfriend, but I wasn't the one who thought of it! Your father owl'ed me! He told me not to let you date some girl who's family was even lower than the Weasleys," Lita rushed. Draco stared at her, breathing heavily. Keeley just blinked. They had literally no idea what to say now. They pressed their lips together for a second, then turned around and walked out in a flurry, albeit extremely calmly.

                                                    *****

           "Keeley?" Draco knocked gently on the wooden door that led into one of the 6th year dorms. It slowly creaked open, not because Keeley had opened it, but because the door was absolute shit and had like half of a hinge.

         Keeley was sitting on her bed, face emotionless, eyes closed, slightly bent over. "Keels.. she's wrong. She's absolutely wrong." 

           "Yeah I know she's wrong!" Keeley burst out. "You know what, I don't even blame her as much as I probably should."
