ROSELLA’S P.O.V

It was another day and it was the first Quidditch Match of the year and after getting changed into my Quidditch Uniform, I walked out of the Dorm and left the Common Room with th other’s and made our way to the Great Hall for Breakfast. By the time we had gotten there, I sat down next to Draco and I noticed that he was looking upset, “what’s wrong?” I asked him, “nothing, I’m fine.” he said to me, “don’t lie to me. What’s wrong?” I said to him, “everything.” He said to me and I held his hand, “I know it’s not easy and that you’re going through a lot but you’ll get through this. I know you will.” I said to him and he just looked at me before I kissed his cheek, “thanks.” he said to me and I smiled a little, “now eat something.” I said to him before he started eating and I had done the same and the both of us just talked and ate the entire time before we had to leave, “I’ll see you later alright.” I said to him, “alright.” He said before he kissed my cheek and I had done the same and kissed his cheek before I made my way to the Quidditch Pitch. By the time I had gotten there, we all got ready before making our way out onto the field along with the Gryffindor Team and eventually, the game had begun. After some time had passed, Ro managed to block every goal we tried to make before I managed to at least get one before I later went after Ginny along with another Chaser and later end up flying into one of the hoops and falling to the ground and I managed to get up and continue with the Match. After the Match was over, everyone had gone back to the Castle and as soon as I walked in, I went to Madam Pomfrey and once I had gotten there, she checked me over ad slipped me some Animal Blood and I took it before I noticed Draco rush over, “are you alright? Blase told me what happened.” he told me, “I’m alright.” I said to him and the both of us talked about it for a while. After spending time in the Hospital Wing, both Draco and I had gone back to the Common Room and by the time we did, I had gotten changed into something else and after doing so, I walked back into the Common Room only to see that Draco wasn’t there, “do you know where Draco went?” I asked Pansy, “he didn’t say. He just walked out of the Common Room.” She told me, “alright, Thanks.” I said to her and I walked around the castle looking for Draco and I was beginning to worry about where he might be before noticing that I hadn't checked the Astronomy Tower and I made my way there.

By the time I made it to the Astronomy Tower, I walked up the stairs only to find him leaning against the railing and walked up to him and rests my hand on his back, “I figured you’d find me here at some point.” he said to me, “it did take me a while to find you. What are you doing up here anyways?” I said to him and he just sighed a little and I took his hand in mine, “talk to me.” I said to him, “I don’t know if I can take it anymore.” he said to me and I hugged him, “I know, I don’t blame you if you want to let it all out.” I said to him and there was a moment of silence before he turned to face me and hugged me before he started crying and I hugged him back and tighten my grip around him before we knelt to the ground and he cried harder and I tried to comfort him as best I could before I started crying myself as I continued to hold him. After some time had passed, the both of us calmed down a little, we continued to hug each other for a while before he moved away from it and looked at me, “are alright?” I asked him and he nodded a little, “we should get back to the Common Room.” I said to him and I stood up before holding out my hand and he took it before getting up himself before the both of us made our way to the Common Room for the night. By the time we made it back to the Common Room, most of the others had already gone to bed for the night and both Draco and I walked into his dorm for the night and after doing so, the both of us had gotten changed into something comfortable before getting into bed, “what do you think is going to happen when this is all over and You-Know-Who is dead?” I asked him, “I don’t know but I hope we’re still together.” He said to me and I smiled a little, “me too.” I said to him and the both of us talked about it for a while longer before the both of us had fallen asleep later that night. Another day came around and Christmas was just around the corner and both Blaise and I had been invited to Slughorn’s Christmas Dew and I’ve been spending a lot of time with Draco as the Christmas Dew was getting closer, I was going to ask Draco if he wanted to go with me and I found him in his Dorm and sat with him on the bed, “how are you doing?” I asked him, “alright I suppose. How about you?” He said to me, “I’m alright. I wanted to ask you something though.” I said to him, “what is it?” He asked me, “Well, I was wondering if you wanted to go to Slughorn’s Christmas Dew with me. I mean, you don’t have to if you’re going to be busy in the Room of Requirement.” I said to him, “I’ll see what I can do alright.” he said to me and I nodded a little before the both of us continued to talk and spend time together throughout the rest of the day.

Slughorn’s Christmas Dew came around and I was getting ready in Draco’s dorm and once I was done and looked at myself in the Mirror, I noticed Draco through the Mirror before he walked up to me and wrapped his arms around my waist and kissed my shoulder,

“you look beautiful.” he said to me, “thank you.” I said and turned around to face him, “I’m sorry I can’t come tonight.” he said to me, “it’s fine. I was kind of expecting it anyways.” I said to him before kissing him and after a few moments, he spoke up, “you should get going. I don't want you to be late.” he said to me, “alright then. I’ll see you later alright.” I said to him, “alright.” he said before the both of us left the Common Room and we had gone our separate ways and I met up with Blaise as the both of us eventually made it to the party and spent most of the time talking with each other and ended up taking a picture with Professor Slughorn before we continued talking with each other before Mr. Filch dragged someone into the room before seeing that it was Draco, “Professor Slughorn, I just discovered this boy lurking in an Upstairs corridor. He claims to have been invited to your party.” Mr. Filch said, “he was invited. I had asked him to come with me beforehand.” I said to him before Professor Snape walked up to him before speaking up, “don’t worry Miss. Cullen, he won’t be long. I Need to speak with him.” he said before Draco managed to pull his arm out of Mr. Filch’s grip, “Certainly, Professor.” Draco said before the both of them walked out of the room and I let out a shaky sigh before the Party continued and I spent the entire time with Blaise as the both of us continued to talk the entire time but it didn’t get my mind off of what had happened. After a few moments had passed, I decided to sneak out of the room and went looking for Draco and after a while, I began to hear voices and walked closer to them before I noticed someone and looked to see that it was Harry and I walked up to him and waited for Snape and Draco to leave and when they did, I soon spoke up to Harry, “still thinking he’s the bad guy?” I asked him, causing him to jump a little before he noticed it was me, “what makes you think he’s good?” he asked me, “answer mine first.” I said to him, “yes I do still think he’s a bad person. Now answer mine.” he said to me, “you don't know his full story. You don’t know what he’s going through. I’m surprised he’s able to talk to me considering I’ve hung out with you before.” I said to him, “what did he tell you?” he asked me, “I’m not telling you. You’d say that I’m wrong and that he’s messing with me.” I said to him, “probably because he is. He’s probably lying to you.” he said to me and I got closer to him as I got angry before speaking up to him, “I’d suggest you leave him alone before you make things worse not just for him but for you. Whatever he’s doing, he didn't have a choice. I wake up almost every night because of his Nightmares that are caused by what he has to go through and it hurts to watch him suffer. So please, for the love of god, leave him alone. he's going through enough as it is.” I said to him before walking away and made my way to the Common Room hoping that Draco was there. By the time I had gotten there, I went straight to his dorm only to see him sitting on the bed, “I was hoping to find you here.” I said to him, “thanks for covering for me.” he said to me as I sat down next to him, “no Problem. Anyways, you should know something.”  said to him, “what is it?” h asked me, “Harry was listening to what you were talking about with Snape. I managed to catch him when I was looking for you.” I told him, “he never learns does he. He’s finding a way to blame me for something I didn’t want to do.” he said to me, “I talked with him before coming here. I said little about what you’re doing but I have a feeling that it won't be enough to get him to stop.” I told him, “it’s fine.  Know you’re only trying to help.” he said to me and the both of us talked for a while longer about everything before we had decided to get changed and get into bed for the night before the both of us had fallen asleep that night.
