   THERE ARE A FEW THINGS I know for a fact. Firstly, we only have one and a half weeks left until school begins. Secondly, I am scared of meeting the Dark Lord because of the things I can now do, which are taking mental and physical pain, which, I think, makes me loose myself a little.

I take a sip of the bottle, the liquid burning down my throat.

And thirdly, the firewhiskey stored under my bed is one of the only thing that is getting me through the day right now.

I don't think that taking all this pain is good for myself, but Lucian doesn't think so, so I have to keep going. And even prove myself to the Dark Lord.

"So I heard you were at that Party yesterday, the muggle one?" Felix asks after sighing contentedly.

I like hanging out with him because we live close to each other and it's a good distraction from not seeing Oliver. I miss him as a friend.

"Where'd you hear that?"

"Is it true?"

"Yeah, why?"

"Did you like uh hook up with someone?" He mutters, biting on his lip at the end of the sentence.

"Why? Jealous?" I smirk.

"What if I was?" He challenges.

"Then I'd tell you that we aren't dating or anything so it's none of your business who I hook up with or not."

"How many people have you hooked up with since we started shagging?"

"Like 3 I think." I shrug, trying to recall the past weeks.

"I haven't shagged anyone else."

"Why not?" I ask, though the reason doesn't particularly interest me.

"Because I only want you."

"You're lying."

"I'm not. I'm honestly jealous of the other guys and I don't want you seeing others."

"What?"

"I want us to be exclusive."

"Like exclusively shagging?"

"No like exclusively being in a relationship."

"You want to be in a relationship with me?" I ask slowly, my eyebrows rising slightly in disbelief.

Do I want that?

Do I even like him like that?

"I do."

I hum in acknowledgment, not knowing what else to say.

"Would you want that?"

"Uh."

"Then let me officially ask to make the decision easier, Aurora, do you want to be my girlfriend?"

Do I?

"Uh sure."

   It won't hurt trying out to be in a relationship, right?

   He smiles before placing a kiss to my forehead, "Now everyone will be jealous of me."

Well I guess I have my first actual boyfriend now.

"I'm sure."
