THEO

It's 2.23pm and Enzo's been on my ass for the whole walk from Slytherin Chamber to Hufflepuff Chamber about how it's inconsiderate that we're late showing up to Y/N's dorm. I have to keep reminding him that HE'S the reason we're late, not me. While I helped Blaise move into his new dorm, which he was very pissed about because past third year you don't usually get moved, Enzo was in our dorm with the door locked. He insisted on having a quick catch up with one of the girls quilled into his little black book before heading to Y/N's. 

We waited outside the Hufflepuff common room before someone finally opens the door for us, luckily he was a young student and was easy to push around to let us into the chambers. We walked through the common room towards the dorms when a group of boys from the top story wolf whistle at us and shout something about getting laid on the first day. After flipping them off and saying we're here for MY SISTER, we kept walking towards the dorms. Y/N texted me her dorm number earlier on, she's in 119, I know that's down the end because 121 is the last one in the hall, and I know that for a fact because I used to do favours for the girl who lives in there, well, both the girls who live in there.

Even if Y/N hadn't of let me know of her dorm number, it wouldn't have been hard to figure out which one's hers. She's poking her head out the door, obviously watching out for us to arrive, most likely because we're late. She waves us down and Enzo and I pick up pace to make the time go a little quicker.

'Missed me yet?', Y/N snickers to herself as Enzo and I waltz into her dorm. 

I ignore her comment and turn to Enzo. 'The things I would do for a dorm to myself', Enzo laughs in agreement and flops down on one of the beds.

'You guys are disgusting', Y/N eyes us from the other bed.

'Hey, I didn't say it was so I could have girls over'

'But you meant it', Y/N stands up off the bed and hands her suitcase to me. 'Can you put it up there?', she points over to the top of her wardrobe, 'I can't reach.'

'Yeah, sure', I walked over to the wardrobe and listen to what Enzo's talking to Y/N about.

'You heading to the Ravenclaw party tonight?'

'I didn't know there was one', Y/N sounds disappointed, obviously thinking that she wasn't invited.

'Oh, it's not really by invite don't worry, just show up with some liquid gold and they'll you in'

'I don't have any "liquid gold"', Y/N mocking Enzo and his use of words before her overthinking seeps back in, 'Wait, how did you guys know it was on.'

I decide to step in before Y/N thinks that everyone here already hates her. 'We know because it's tradition to hold a party on the Saturday before school starts up again', she looks slightly relieved and I look to Enzo for a little more help.

'And we've got the liquid gold, just come with us and they'll let you in'

'Yeah okay, but what do I wear?', Y/N walks over to the wardrobe I was just at and starts shifting through her options.

Enzo and I just watch as her brain starts putting outfits together, we both know the last thing she needs help with is an outfit. 

'How well do you guys know Cedric Diggory?', Y/N calls over from the wardrobe, her voice quiet from her head neck deep in clothes. 'I know you warned me about him earlier, but he seems nice, what do you hate him for?'

Enzo and I share a glance before I take a breath and begin to speak. 'We just have some bad blood, that's all'

'Ugh come on guys! If you want me to leave him alone you better give me something better than that', she calls out while pulling out a short light yellow coloured silk dress, very on theme for being a Hufflepuff.

'Um-', Enzo cuts me off before I can think of something rational to say.

'Theo here sent him straight to the hospital wing when he wasn't treating his girlfriend right last year', I give Enzo a grimace before looking back to see how she reacts.

'Oh, right. Good on you then', I look back to Enzo surprised that she's not gotten all pissed at me for starting something. 'Has he got better since then?'

Enzo starts speaking again, 'Yeah apparently. Him and his last girl went pretty good, they broke up because she had to move to Beauxbatons.'

'Oh, Sophia and I probably know her then', she walks over to us with the silk dress and a pair of shoes, 'Thoughts?'

'Yeah that's alright', I say, 'You'll fit in just right.'

'So it's just a grudge between you and Cedric now then?', she look at me with an eyebrow raised, 'Nothing else?'

'Nah nothing else', I reply, 'Don't get any ideas though, he's a lot older than you'

'Yeah, I know'

Enzo and I stick around for a little before heading back to our dorm to get ready for the party tonight. Enzo talks the whole way back about what girls Blaise and Mattheo have set up for each other in their little black books, and what names he wants to quill into mine for me.
