12:30 p.m

I finally made it to Herbology, I look around the classroom only to see the Riddle's taking their seat and Lopez back down the classroom with his class.

ʜᴏᴡ? I thought to myself, either I'm really slow or they found a short cut throught the school. I didnt really care, i never do, ᴡʜʏ sʜᴏᴜʟᴅ ɪ ᴄᴀʀᴇ ᴀʙᴏᴜᴛ ᴘᴇᴏᴘʟᴇ? ᴛʜᴇʏ ᴅᴏɴᴛ ᴄᴀʀᴇ ᴀʙᴏᴜᴛ ᴍᴇ?

I make my way to Pansy, who was sitting in one of the seats in the middle row. "Where were you?" Pansy whispers over to me. "Libray" is all I say back.

"Why are you almost late everyday?" She laughs with a smirk. "You can blame Lopez for this one" I sigh with dead eyes. Pansy looks at me with a devious smirk, "Ew, no not like that" I state grimacing at Pansy's dirty thoughts.

"Raven!" I hear a voice scream my name, it was Enzo.

"I looked everywhere for you!, update on the ɢʀʏғғɪɴᴅᴏʀ ɢᴏssɪᴘ ɢᴀᴢᴇᴛᴛᴇ!" The Gryffindor Gossip Gazette is what Enzo loves the most in the school, he would get all the drama in the Gryffindor house and spread it across the whole school.

Draco thinks its a stupid thing to do, but everytime Enzo has a new update of drama, Draco loves to listen in. He would never admit the fact he enjoys all the gossip but I think its obvious.

"Spill the tea" I say patting a seat next to me. "I have some drama on the GoLdeN TrIo" Enzo says mocking the name of their group.

"Well Hurry up then,tell me!" Draco said strutting into Herbology like he owned th place. "Wow, calm down, Draco, no need to get your knickers in a twist. I was just about to spill the tea to my darling, Raven.But if you're that desperate sit back and enjoy the show" Enzo says dramatically.

"Im not desperate, I just need to have a laugh at the pathetic trio" Draco scowls.

"Nobody Cares,Enzo tell us" Pansy says impatiently.

"So, apparently, Hermione and Ron have been spending a lot of time together studying for their OWL exams, and some people are starting to wonder if there's more than just friendship between them. Meanwhile, Harry seems to be feeling left out and a bit jealous of their close bond.

And to add to the drama,some are saying they saw Hermione kiss Harry, there's whispers that Hermione might have a secret crush on someone else in Gryffindor house. It's like a love triangle brewing right under our noses." Enzo says his voice filled with excitement with a mischievous grin. Randomly raising his eyebrows for dramatic parts. On the last line he winked at Draco with a playful lilt in his voice.

"Oh, isn't it just precious? The mighty Gryffindor trio reduced to bumbling fools over a silly love triangle. I must say, it's quite amusing to see them squirm. Potter and Granger, truly a match made in a Gryffindor nightmare. And poor Weasley caught in the middle, completely clueless. It's almost too good to be true. I do love a good bit of drama, don't you, Draco? Simply delicious." Pansy's tone sly and mocking,nudging Draco as he just smirked.

"Well, well, well, it seems the Gryffindor heroes have found themselves tangled in a bit of melodrama. How utterly predictable. I suppose it's no surprise that they can't handle their emotions like proper wizards and witches. Potter and his friends always did have a flair for the dramatic, didn't they? It's quite entertaining, really, watching them stumble around in their own mess. I, of course, would never find myself in such a ridiculous situation. But then again, I am a Malfoy." Draco stated cockily smirking over at Ron who sat at the opposite side of the room.

I nudge Draco slightly "Come on, Draco, Even the almighty Malfoys have their moments of imperfection. You can't deny that." I then flash him a teasing grin and continue, "But hey, it just adds to your charm, right? Embrace the embarrassment, my friend." In a light-hearted manner I teased Draco.
