The following night you walk to the library with a smile on your face. The book in your hand is a personal favorite of yours and something that you're more than happy to share with Ominis. You're also quite curious as to why he's requested that you bring it, but you don't question him. You follow the narrow path that Ominis had shown you last time to the secret study room, but when you arrive he isn't there.
"Ominis?" you call out as you step inside. "Are you here?"
However, there's no response. With a sigh, you sit down on the couch and peer past the grand window to watch the rain falling outside instead. Maybe he's just running late.
OMINIS' P.O.V.
"What do you think the Headmaster wants?" Sebastian asks me as I walk toward the Headmaster's office.
"Leave me alone," I sigh as I try to ignore him.
"But seriously, I mean, why would he want to speak to you, huh?"
"I don't know. But leave me be. I'll deal with whatever this is. Go to class or something."
"It's late. And it's raining," he shrugs. "I've got nothing else to do."
"What about your Crossed Wands tournaments you're always taking part in?" I sigh, stopping outside Headmaster Black's door.
"Already lost. Don't have anyone to duel with anymore since you're always so damn busy nowadays," he then sighs.
"Well, I don't know what to tell you," I shake my head. "Maybe go find a new partner or practice your skills. I need to do this on my own."
Without waiting for a reply from Sebastian, I knock on the door and wait to hear the Headmaster's voice on the other side. Then, once he welcomes me inside, I glance back at Sebastian before walking in.
"Headmaster," I greet him softly as I shut the door in Sebastian's face, "wonderful to see you."
"Ominis, yes, wonderful. Please, sit," he waves his hands over to the chair.
"Thank you," I say as I sit down, placing my hands in my lap.
"Now, I know you're busy, Ominis. But this will only take a moment," he nods. "I've recently received some news and wanted to speak to you directly."
"News?" I raise an eyebrow. "About what?"
"About you. And about our newest 7th year, Miss Bennett," he replies.
I know exactly where he's about to take this. I let in a deep breath, making sure to remain calm for everything he's about to say. "Yes, sir?" I reply, trying to sound casual.
"I've been keeping tabs on the two of you. As a precaution. And as a result, I'm quite worried about how your relationship is developing. You and I both know your family won't love the idea of you getting so close to-"
