Reality Bites Harry Potter

Halloween Surprise

October is here and I'm worried. In exactly one week, Quirrell is going to let a troll loose in the school. I know that no body is going to really get hurt, but at the same time, I feel a bit uneasy. I feel like with Shay and I here something is bound to happen. "What's wrong?" Theo asked at breakfast that day. We all decided to sit at the Slytherin table today. I shook my head.

"I just have a bad feeling about Halloween, but I'm sure it's nothing." I said shrugging. He frowned, but nodded.

"So Fred asked me about Shay's crush yesterday." Blaise said frowning.

"Yeah, he asked me too." Theo said shaking his head.

"That poor, unfortunate soul." I said grinning. "I'm surprised he hasn't asked me yet."

"That's probably because he knows you won't tell him." Blaise said snickering.

"I can't disagree with that." I said smirking.

"So how are things with you and Susan?" Theo asked Blaise. Blaise blushed.

"W-Why do you want to know?" He stuttered.

"Because you never tell us anything." I said rolling my eyes at him. "How are we supposed to know if things are going well between you two if you never tell us anything?"

"Just because my love life is going well, it doesn't mean I have to tell you everything." Blaise said rolling his eyes. I sighed.

"Yeah, but you didn't even tell us how your date with Susan went!" Theo said pouting. And he looks adorable while doing it.

"Which one?" Blaise asked confused. I gasped.

"You two went on more than one date and you didn't say ANYTHING about it!?" I asked wide-eyed. "Why do you hurt me so? I thought we were friends." I said dramatically.

"Okay, okay, fine. Susan and I have gone on a few dates the last couple of weeks. But they were just to help us get to know each other." Blaise said sighing.

"So how'd it go on your first date?" Theo asked, no longer pouting. Aw....

"Well, after we had food in the Three Broomsticks, we decided to go check some of the other shops that were still open. Susan really wanted to go to Honeydukes." Blaise said shrugging. "We just did a lot of talking."

"Aw, I bet it was cute." I said smiling.

"Nosy..." Blaise mumbled, rolling his eyes. And then he said, "How was your 'date'?"

"Hm, it really wasn't much of a date." I said shrugging.

"Yeah, we spent most of it making sure Angelina and Fred were having a bad time." Theo said nodding.

"Well, when are you two going to get together finally?" Blaise asked, frowning. "Seriously, what's holding you two back? You both know how you feel about each other." I frowned.

"We want to make sure that our feelings are legit." I said sighing.

"Yeah, we want to be absolutely sure that our feelings towards each other are genuine." Theo said frowning too.

"Okay, okay. But seriously, if you haven't already figured that out by now, then you both need some help." Blaise grumbled. Shay walked up to us not long after.

"Guys, I'm going to have a Halloween party!" She said excitedly.

"Seriously?" I ask her, a bit exasperated.

"Yep and I'm making it a requirement for everyone to dress up." She said grinning.

"What do you mean by dress up?" Theo asked curiously.
