Monday rolled around, and there was rumors that Daph and Theo broke up at the party that happened while we were away. As much as I wanted to know, I didn't want to speak to either one. Pansy perched herself on the foot of my bed as I did my hair.
"Does it matter, if they broke up I mean? Does it change anything?" She asked. I shrugged as I ran a brush through my hair after a straightener, trying desperately to make my hair look longer than it was.
"Not really, unless he comes equipped with a genuine apology, but even then I won't get back with him."
"Because you're with Enz?" She asked.
"Because he's a dick and he's treated me like shit for the past few weeks. I mean he literally almost dueled Mattheo." She smiled.
"Ah there's the anger. Keep it." I rolled my eyes.
"You're annoying."
"I keep you safe. Let's go." We walked to class to find Theo in my seat. Pansy pushed past me.
"Oh for fucks same Nott, really?" She scolded him.
"I just want to talk to her Pans." His voice cracked as he looked up. He looked like hell. Truly, the worst I'd ever seen him. Fred slid into the seat next to him.
"Aren't you two not on speaking terms?"
"Righto Freddie." I told him. He stared over at Theo.
"Get."
"No."
"I wasn't asking."
"Mr. Nott, now is not the time for you to embarrass yourself nor is it the time to make declarations of love, I'm sure they can wait until Professor Snape's class, he'll love that. Find your seat." Mum warned as she walked to the head of the class. Theo stood up with his head hung and walked to his own seat next to Cho. I sighed and took mine next to Fred.
"I'll hex him." He whispered. I stifled a chuckle.
"No need." I told him. As much as I hated it, I felt sorry for him. He looked like shit, he sounded desperate, and he was once my best friend. I hated not knowing what was going on in his life. I hated thinking that he was hurting with no one to talk to. For the first time, I felt bad that I'd taken all of our friends in the breakup. He deserved someone on his side.
Class droned on, mums lesson even bored her to the point where she dismissed us early. I found Matheo and Enzo standing beside me before I'd even collected my things.
"Hello, boys." I greeted as Draco, Blaise and Pansy appeared. Hermione popped over.
"Hey, still on to study later?" She asked Pansy who nodded and she was off.
"Really, that mudblood?" Draco scolded.
"Really, that mudblood- go fuck yourself." Pansy mocked him as she smacked him upside the head. He pouted like she'd beaten him bloody.
"Minnie?" Mums voice rang. I looked over everyone to her, she waved me over.
"Go. I'll catch up." I told them. Everyone gave me a hazardous look. "Go." I walked up to mums desk as they filed out.
"How ya doing love?" She asked. I shrugged.
"Alright."
"Rumors travel fast, dear."
"Yeah? Which ones did you hear?" She smirked.
"He broke up with her for you." I snorted.
"I doubt it. He just wants his friends back."
