everyone just stared at Regulus, no one said a word and just stared.

"Okay I know I am handsome but this is even making me uncomfortable" Regulus finally breaks the silence. 

"h-how are you..alive?" ced asks

"well... it's a long and complicated thing but simply put, I swam" Regulus walks towards the table.

"May I?"

"of course, please," Daphne says as she gets up and grabs an extra plait for Regulus and fills it up. Draco and I also sit back.

"you'll will know everything in detail tomorrow during the meeting," I say taking some breakfast for myself. 

"What happened to you..?" Theo asked eyeing his right side.

"curse" Regulus didn't bother looking up from his plate. 

"Theo, I want you to work with Regulus to find a way to break this curse on him, this is going to be your task, if you need help let me know" Theo just nods studying the black lines visible on Regulus

"This is one nasty curs" Theo says,

"we can start working on it today"

"perfect" I look over at the rest of my friends with a sad smile, knowing it would be the last christmis we would be able to celebrate so freely and happily for a while.


after breakfast, Theo and Regulus excused themselves and disappeared into the library, ced and blaise decided to go for a walk and Draco I had no idea. 

"so... Mara" Daphne says with a suspicious tone as she walks closer to me with a smirk.

"why are you looking at me like that..?" 

"ohh nothing... just thinking... you know, about the other night... the picnic" she smirks. I ground.

"That's right. tell me, how did it go" She wiggles her brows as she sits down next to me.

"it was..magical, the snow the picni-" 

"thats not what I'm asking about!  tell me about the sex" I go red and Daphne just laughs.

"come on, tell me, was that your first time?"

"y-yeh it was, it was... nice" 

"nice? come on give me all the details, length, technique, everything" I can feel my ears burning as the heat rises from my neck and spreads over my face.

"hey ladies," saved by the man. Theo says as he walks over to us and places a kiss on top of Daphne's head, behind him is a brooding regulus. 

"what's wrong with him?" I point at Regulus.

"I just told him that Lupin will be coming tomorrow" Theo says as he sits down next to Daphne.

"what's wrong with that," I ask

"let's just say I don't get along with the Marauders" 

"Marauders?" Theo asks 

"yeah, potter, my brother, lupin and Pettigrew" 

"ohh yeh.. right I remember" Theo then turns to Daphne

"what's wrong babe?" 

"did you have to come here" Theo was taken aback by daphnes words

"wh-what do you mean babe?"

"Mara was just about to spill the beans about the other night" she says crossing her arms.

"the other night....? Ohh" realisation flashes on Theo's face

"what..are  you all talking about?" regulus asks 

"ohh the other night Draco had planned a very romantic picnic for Amara" Theo smirks

"and one thing led to another" Daphne continues. Regulus smirks. "I see" 

heat creeps up my neck. 

"guys...s-stop"

"awe look at you, the all-mighty shadow queen is a blushing mess" Theo chuckles.

"shut up Nott" Theo just laughs. 

"What are you asses harassing my love about," Draco says as he walks into the mansion. 

"where were you?" I ask as he walks up to me.

"that my love is a surprise," he says as he bends down and kisses me.

"ugh, rate you all here this lovy dovy?" regulus asks watching Draco and I. 

"you two" he points at Daphne and Theo "Then the two of you" he points at Draco and me "Then those two boys, blaise and Cedric, this is torture" The four of us laugh. 

"I take it you are single dear uncle" Draco says.

"do not call me uncle. makes me feel old" We all laugh again. 

"hey speaking about Blais and Ced, where are they?" Draco asks.

"they said they were going on a walk, must have gotten distracted.." Draco says.

"best if we stay clear of them then" Theo smirks, and we all agree. 


----------------

after dinner, we were all sitting around the table and eating fruits.

"so who all are coming tomorrow to the meeting tomorrow?" regulus asked.

"Well, for the first time everyone, there will be, Marcus Flint, Adrian Pucey, Cassius Warrington, Graham Montague, Lupin,  Snape, Cissy and Lucius."  

"oh wow, that is a lot of people, wait did you say snape? isn't he a deatheater? Cissy and Lucius too?"

"yeah, well as for Snape, he was a double agent working for dumblehore but after the whole thing in the chambers of secret" 

"dumblehore?" regulus raises a brow.

"yeah, he is a narcissistic Slytherin-hating asshole" blaise says taking a bite of the banana. 

"Good to know dumbldore hasn't changed." regulus says taking a sip of his tea. draco just scoffs. 

"dastard" Theo grumps.

"he wants to meet me after the break,"  I say 

"What??" everyone looks up at me.

"yeah, don't worry I can take care of myself" I tell them not bothering to look up. 

"and when did you come to know about this?" Draco asks 

"Today morning. I promise." Draco just sighs and slumps into his chair.

"come on, don't be like that" I turn to Draco, he just grumps but doesn't say anything. 

"Okay, time for bed" I say getting up and dragging Draco up.

I take him into our room and close the door behind us.  draco traps me between the door and himself.

"dray-" Before I could say anything else he smashes his lips on mine. 

"mph...dray...mm"

"you promised. you promised you'd tell me"

"I told you, you were gone all day an-" he kisses me again.

"excuses excuses excuses" he whispers near my ear sending shivers down my spine. he blew air on my neck and before I could react he bit me there. 

"This should teach you to behave" his voice low and husky.
