My brain couldn't comprehend what was happening right in front of me. My body turned numb and my thoughts cloudy.

ANGELICA'S POV:

It was late at night and past the curfew as I was wandering through the corridors, hoping to clear my mind.

Summer was getting closer and closer but the cold air in the hallways still caused me goosebumps.

I wore black yoga pants and a thick wool sweatshirt that had the words "SLYTHERIN" printed on it.

I love to wear clothes with stuff on it, I even own a shirt with my very own name, Angelica Black, imprinted on it.

Many people would call that narcissistic or selfish, but I rather would call it self love.

It was dark and the dimmed candles hanging on the cold stone walls were the only source of light.

I have always loved walking through the corridors of Hogwarts alone, especially at night when no one is around.

When I needed to clear my head or I just wanted to be alone it was the perfect opportunity to fulfil my needs. Most of the time I don't even know where I'm headed, I just walk until my joints are sore and my mind blank.

My boyfriend, Draco Malfoy, who claims to be a psychologist, assumes that I have Insomnia and emotional issues.

And that's bullshit, I am perfectly fine. I don't have any sorts of problems nor do I have mental health issues, as he also likes to address it.

Because of his assumptions and his believes of knowing everything, we often get into fights. It just irritates me that he pretends to know my business better than myself.

Because in someways he is right and I don't want to admit it to myself, but I probably have some problems.

Still I love him more than anything or anyone, and I don't know what I'd do without him.

Tonight I had an urge to explore the Black Lake, as the full moon shone upon it.
This was very unusual because on my nightly walks I never leave the castle.

Mainly because it is too dangerous and forbidden. There are rumours about Dementors sucking souls out of students that stroll around at night.

And since Dean Thomas was found unconscious near the Whomping Willow, the rumours turned out to be true.

Which is why I clung to my wand as I left the corridors, hoping not be overrun by some ugly creatures.

The fresh crisp air hit me like a delightful spring morning. Even though it was pretty late I could hear the birds chirping and the owls hooting.

I didn't have to walk long to reach my destination.

I was flabbergasted. I had no words or thoughts left as I saw the Black Lake in all its beauty, it even looked prettier at night. The tiny waves on the shimmery dark water, the moon hitting the lake so perfectly I could see my own reflection, it was just breathtaking.

This is what I like about spending time in nature, I can just ground myself in it.

About five minutes later I was already freezing my ass off and I had to get back to the castle either way, so I took one last glance at the lake.

Inhaling the scent of fresh water, a whiff of my own perfume and my surroundings.

But just as I was about to leave I heard laughter and giggling.

I turned sideways only to find Draco and Cho Chang, a Ravenclaw, sitting on a freaking rock, holding hands like a married couple, watching the same phenomenon as I did.

Why haven't I noticed them any earlier? Maybe because they weren't able to make a sound because they were too busy having their mouths all over each other?

What if they see me staring at them like a creep?

Jealousy consumed me and my hands started to tremble. My brain couldn't comprehend what was happening right in front of me. My body turned numb and my thoughts cloudy as he actually turned to kiss her.

At this point I didn't give a fuck about being seen.

Realisation hit me. He was cheating on me. Tears formed in my eyes and poured down my cheeks as I ran back to the castle.

I cried so hard that I had to puke just before I reached the institute.

I have never sobbed this hard before. The feeling of disgust and betrayal filled every molecule of my body. I put all of my trust into him, all of my love just so he could cheat on me with Cho?

I knew that bitch had a thing for Draco. She has been eyeing him since the Yule ball.

I was going to carve her heart and stuff it into her mouth until she choked on it, so she could feel how it felt like.

To be cheated on, to lose all the trust you had left and to ask yourself why you are still alive, breathing if the only thing you ever lived for replaced you, abandoned you.

This was it.

Never again in my life will I give my love to anyone. I am done with stupid boys who think they can do as they please.

I'm usually not a big fan of revenge because I think it's stupid to feel the need to prove that you are better than another person. But this time I can make an exception, I will get my revenge no matter the cost.

Who knows maybe Azkaban can be quite entertaining?
