In 1973, a little boy is born with his mother absent, leaving only the mystery of what happened to her, until one day he discovers his magical origin, and the method of both learning magic and witchcraft, and learning more about his deceased mother...
The great Celestial Ball was approaching, many students were extremely excited for the ball, others like Roderik not so much, some like Tonks didn't even care, and most, like Betty, were afraid to ask the partner they wanted.
Angelo and Morwenna had been practicing for a few months, they even practiced interpreting the best way to simulate a "kiss" without actually touching each other, everything being done with only Tonks and Bill's knowledge, until the moment the friends were eating together on a tower balcony, the Celeste Ball coming up in about two weeks.
Angelo was sitting against a pillar that blocked the setting sun, Roderik was sitting against the sun looking directly at the lake, Betty was also looking at the lake, but she was standing between Roderik and Angelo, Tonks was looking at the Astrolabe being in front of Angelo , Morwenna sat on the railing with her back to the sun, in danger of falling, and Bill was not with them at the moment.
"How calm it is at these times, and beautiful too." Betty comments, looking at the landscape.
"I prefer it up here at night, the sun blinds part of the view." Angelo comments, looking at her.
"I would prefer anywhere other than here, IT'S TOO BORING!!!" Morwenna screams as if she were a child.
"You're the oldest here and you act like this?" Roderik comments mockingly.
"Silence, sleepy, anyway... Come on Angie, we have to train more." Morwenna says jumping from the railing to the floor.
"Training? At these times? Training what?" Betty asks curiously, the place is silent, Tonks and Angelo were afraid to speak, and Roderik didn't even know.
"Well..." Angelo begins.
"Angelo... You better talk about it soon." Tonks suggests, which Betty finds strange.
"Talk about what? Again with this thing where the rest of the group knows and we two don't?" Roderik comments slightly frustrated.
"Look... It's about the love potion, the Amortentia... And about the Ball." Angelo says.
"W-what's up with them?" Betty asks, embarrassed but slightly tense.
"I'm going to dance the celestial ball with Morwenna... to make Merula jealous." Angelo says avoiding looking at Betty's face.
"NO FUCKING WAY YOU'VE FELT THE DEVIL DRESSED AS SLYTHERIN IN THE POTION" Roderik says extremely excited and laughing.
Betty just stares at Angelo and the others, hoping it was some kind of lame joke, but the climax never came, it wasn't a joke, Angelo really felt for Merula, and not for Betty, but why not Betty? She comes from a much superior lineage than the Snyde, she is more graceful and tidy compared to her spiky and poorly maintained hair, she has masculine tastes, opening up options to always be able to follow any conversation, not to mention that Betty never did harm or risked her friend's life for something so stupid, why not Betty?
The thoughts in her head intensify, increasingly hateful towards Merula especially, but part of them is directed at Angelo, for having made such a bad "choice".
