Befriending the Enemy

Heartbreaks and Rebounds

"I had to do it one more time, before you become Harry's."~*

"Cassie" - I said, shaking her body. "Cassie," I was in tears, my makeup was all over me. "Cassie please..."

I left because she was clearly blackout drunk. I was running down the stars when I bumped into Draco. "Dani?" - he said, "Dani it's okay. Come here. Everything will be okay, you're safe." He said as he gave me a warm hug. "No, everything isn't okay. I'm leaving." - I said pushing him to the side. I ran and ran and ran, until I stumbled apon
Cedric Diggory. One of my exes, or situationships, a year older than I was, incredibly tall and very good kisser.

"Hey, hey. What's up Dan?" - he said. "Blaise. It- he called me a-" He gave me a tight genuine hug. "Come on, let's walk and talk." He led me to the Hufflepuff commonroom, I haven't been here since third year... He sat me down on a couch and gave me a glass of water. "So, what happened?" I told him the whole story and he hugged me multiple times. I spent at least thirty minutes crying on his chest. "I better head back..." - I said wiping my tears. Just as he was about to walk me out, he stopped. "You look so pretty when you cry." - he said, wiping a tear from my cheek. I immediately went in for a kiss, one that lasted so much, I don't remember when it ended. I do remember falling asleep on top of him. Maybe that's how we finished.

I woke up in the same couch, but Cedric was no where to be seen. I walked around enough to see him brushing his teeth. "Morning." - he said. "Good morning, what time is it?" - I asked, my eyes wandering around the room. "Time for you to head back. It's 4:46." It shocked me how early I was awake. "Well, I better go." He stopped what he was doing and said: "Wait." He leaned in for another kiss. "I had to do that one more time, before you become Harry's." Where exactly is he going with this. "Invite me to the wedding." Sadly for him I've been thinking about the honeymoon more than I've thought about the wedding. "Yeah, yeah."

"Text me if you need anything." Shit. That's what Harry said. After saying he would stalk me through the map. Shit. If I ever want to make that honeymoon happen I would have to go back, like now. I ran all the way to the common room, entering through the secret entrance we had made, because we were starting to be left outside by the painting guarding the doors. There he was, Harry. Glasses still on, the map in his hand... the map. Goddammit. He was sleeping in the common-room couch. I'm assuming Mione went to Ron's dorm. I walked past him, trying not to make noise, till I stubbed my toe. "Shit." - I said. Harry started waking up and I just stayed there. "Good-morning Harry how are you do-"

"Cedric? Really? What happened to texting me if something happened?" - he said pointing at his phone. "I'm sorry, I was crying and he found me in the halls and-" He looked away and looked back at me in disbelief. "And then you fucked him." - he said with a straight face. "I didn't."

"Yeah ok. Fine. Don't talk to me." - he said, which he regretted right after. "Harry what?" - I cried. "Don't."

He texted me. He was worried. And I was starting to like him. Now I lost him. Him, Blaise and Cedric. Hopefully I don't loose Ron and Mione. I'll have to hang out with Lavender. And if you know one thing about me is that I hate Lavender. And her friend, Ra- whatever. She always flirts with Ron and Harry, and Ron wasn't even single most of the time.

I went into the dorm in tears. "Dani? Dani are you okay?" - Mione said. "No, I'm not okay. I hate myself, I hate what I've done." - I replied. "What did you do?" - she asked, patting my back. "I lost Blaise because of Harry, I lost Cedric because of Harry and now I lost Harry. If you and Ron want to act like you never knew me, it's okay, I really don't mind." - I cried. "No, Dani. You're my one of my best-friends. Things like this can be fixed. Harry's just acting immature. Just give him time he'll come around." - Mione said while giving me a hug. "Thank you, Mione. I really appreciate it."

After sleeping a couple more hours, I woke up. Thankfully it was Saturday so I didn't really have to leave. But my stomach started grumbling. Fuck. I'm really hungry. You know what? I'm going, to show them what they're missing. I stood up to look in the mirror to see the fattest eyebags I've ever witnessed. "Fuck no."

After thirty layers of concealer I managed to stop looking uncanny. I had my hair in a messy bun, which turned out surprisingly good. My skirt was rolled up an extra two times and my shirt was wrinkly. Blaise is right, I am a whore. Whatever. Whore life or no life.

Once I got to the great hall I had no fucking idea who to sit with. I walked near Harry, and he whispered something to Ron and scooted closer to Neville, leaving me without a seat. Then I passed the Hufflepuff table, no way was I doing that. Then I passed my the Ravenclaws, who greeted me, but Cho wasn't there, so I just left. Then the Slytherin table. Blaise saw me coming and immediately stormed out. Perfect. I sat down next to Cass.

"What?" - I noticed everyone stopped to stare at me. "Ignore them." - Cass said. "Do you actually sit on Harry's face?" - Enzo impulsively asked.
"Dude!", "Gross.", "What did we tell you?" - Draco, Cassie and Theo said in unison. "What? I need to know, so I can imagine myself!"

"I lost my appetite." - Mattheo said, pushing his food away. "Look, I'm sorry but I have goals." - Enzo said. I laughed at his comment. "In your dreams, Enzo."

"Okay, but what exactly happened?" - Theo asked. I told them everything I remembered, because I was already drunk when it happened. "Fine with me, I didn't want you to be with Blaise, It felt weird." - Draco said. He didn't like me with Cedric, Milo, who's in Ravenclaw, Harry and any of his Slytherin friends. He needs to make up his mind.

Walking back to my dorm I stumbled upon Maria. "You coming to the tryouts?" - she said with a heavy boston/new york accent, even though she says she doesn't hear it. "Try outs?"

"Yeah, they're in an hour." Shit. "Uh well, I'll see you there." - I said staring at my clock. "Don't tell me you forgot again." I did. "No, just forgot what time it is, I'll see you later." I did not have any motivation to stay out of bed, let alone a whole cheer tryout. Hopefully I can let my anger out, or they take me because I was already on the team.
