Been fucking obsessed with Theo Nott recently so he is become Harry friending too (enforced socialization)

Luckily Blaise is there to be a buffer between the unstoppable force and the immovable object

Happy reading!

When Blaise slides onto the bench next to Theo at breakfast on Monday morning, the two of them are thankfully far away from where Malfoy sits further up the table. Sadly, that small mercy is the only one he'll receive this morning.

"So, where were you all weekend?" Theo asks teasingly. "Haven't seen you since you left for detention on Friday night."

Blaise grimaces. The Nott family heir may be an antisocial bookworm, but he can and will tear himself away from his books for the chance to screw with his friends. And today, the friend he's chosen to screw with is Blaise.

"I was avoiding Malfoy." He responds, serving himself a bowl of porridge.

"Uh-huh... So you camped out somewhere in the castle for a whole weekend then? I have to wonder how you passed the time."

Fucking Merlin, that damned bastard really has it out for him today. Blaise intends to ignore Theo, but the idiot continues to run his mouth.

"Let me guess, Potter?"

"Wouldn't you like to know?" He sneers, taking a bite of his porridge.

"Aren't we friends?" The brunette smirks.

"Not when you're being a shithead."

Theo pouts but goes back to reading his book, some kind of obscure rune manual. Crisis averted.

It's become routine at this point for Blaise to end up eating his words. He doesn't believe in reincarnation or karma, but obviously he should because this is definitely retribution for something he did, whether it be in this life or another.

One may be wondering why Blaise has come to that conclusion. Well, it's because he's currently restraining both Theo and Harry from starting a punch-up over some runes bullshit he can't summon the brain power to remember. In the fucking library.

He manages to drag them over to a secluded table and cast a silencing charm before Madam Pince notices and kicks them out, but now the Italian is forced to break up an argument between the most stubborn person he's ever met and the craziest.

"Are the two of you incapable of having a civil discussion or something!?" Blaise shouts. Theo and Harry turn to look at him with matching incredulous expressions, give a resounding "Yes", and go right back to arguing.

Blaise pinches the bridge of his nose and sighs heavily. "I fucking give up." He groans, sitting down to try and get some homework done.

Merlin, they should've both ended up in Ravenclaw to save him the energy of dealing with this crap. At least then it'd be another Ravenclaw's problem instead of his.

He makes a desperate attempt to finish the pile of homework in front of him, which he somehow succeeds at despite the argument that's now been going on for over an hour.

Blaise is suddenly thankful he doesn't take Ancient Runes or else he'd have to deal with their fights regularly, if Theo's rants in the dorms and at meals are anything to go by.

It's suddenly quiet, and he realizes that the fight has now been taken out of the library and away from him, finally. Good fucking riddance.
