The next few days were pretty tense between myself and Fred.

We hadn't spoken just as the two of us since i took a love potion and hadn't met up or done anything since.

I wasnt sure exactly why he was avoiding me but from what Jules had told me he didn't like seeing you talk about another boy, love potion or not.

The Yule ball was a week away, meaning christmas was fast approaching and i was heading back to Milan for two weeks.

I still hadn't accepted any of my offers, my heart still hanging out for the slim possibility that Fred and i would attend together, however from the distance between us recently i knew that it probably wouldn't happen.

We were all sat in the great hall, having lunch. Jules and i were chatting about the type of dress she wanted to wear and where we could go shopping.

I was about to reply but was interrupted by someone I didn't recognise.

'ciao Bianca' The boy greeted, a very dark look in his persona.

'Ciao?' i replied, asking his name.

'Theodore Nott, Cass ti ha parlato di me' (cass told you about me) He said.

'A mi ricordo' (ah i remember).

'Possiamo parlare?' (Can we talk?)

I nodded, standing up and walking beside him as we left the hall.

THEY SPEAK IN ITALLIAN TO EACHOTHER

'So, what can i do for you?' I asked him as we walked through the corridor.

'First off, i heard about some of the other Slytherin's roofying you, which wasnt something i was involved in' He started, deep eye bags under his eyes as of he didn't sleep that soundly.

I just nodded.

'Secondly, I remember how tiring it was to speak English all day, so if you'd like... we can hang out?' He carried on.

I smiled.

'Yeah Theo, sounds good' I told him, appreciating his offer and empathy.

'Cool, who are you going to the ball with?' He asked forwardly.

I was slightly taken aback by it but replied anyhow.

'No one yet' I told him. He turned facing me, a shocked look on his face.

'No ones asked you?'

'Oh no, they've asked, but i dont really know any of them... besides'

'You waiting for Weasley to ask you?' He interrupted.

'How do you know that?' I said to the boy who had just read my mind.

He chuckled 'I know everything that goes on here, which means i know that Fred asked Mia Fitz a week ago' He told me. My heart stopped for a second, not expecting that news, especially that i saw Fred end things with Mia about a month ago.

'Did that hurt? Sorry' He said as he lead us to a private outdoor part of the castle, placing a cig in his mouth.

'No, there's nothing serious going on between us' I said whilst sighing.

'Well, in that case i have a proposition' He started.

'Go on' I replied, raising an eyebrow.

'let me take you, just as friends of course- my girls back in Italy' He said.

'You want us to go together? Why?' I asked him.

He laughed.

'I'm attractive, your beautiful, both Italian, why the hell not?' He said casually.
